MINIPLEX transponder
Typical 4100U MINIPLEX System One-Line Drawing
Introduction
4100U MINIPLEX transponders
connect to a host
4100U Fire Alarm Control Panel using Simplex
®
remote
unit interface (RUI) communications. At the transponder,
RUI communications are received by the transponder
interface module and translated into the same internal
communications format that is used in the host control
panel.
Remotely located modules.
With RUI
communications, the transponder can remotely provide
the same initiating and notification functions that occur at
the host control panel without requiring multiple long
distance wiring runs. Connections to the host panel are
low current communications and audio wiring with
distances up to 2500 ft (762 m).
Software Revisions.
Some of the features detailed and
products listed in this document require 4100U System
Software Revision 11.08 or higher. For pre-11.08 system
expansion options, hardware updates may be required.
Contact your local Simplex
®
product supplier for details.
