Input/Output Modules Data Sheet The wide range of input and output modules available from NOTIFIER delivers exceptional flexibility to a NOTIFIER fire detection and alarm system. Using these modules enables integration with a host of other building management and emergency systems, including access control systems, lifts, fire shutters and emergency lighting. Features Analogue addressable communications Builtin type identification automatically identifies these devices to the control panel (not MX) Stable communication technique with high noise immunity Rotary DECADE to address switches (not MX) Common mounting options including Surface Mount, Panel Mount and DIN Rail Mount. Tricolour LED s Powered directly by wire loop. No additional power required Plugin terminal connections for ease of field wiring Approved to CEA GEI AND CEA GEI 4 CPD approval to EN54 and EN54, LPCB and VdS Installation The M series modules can be mounted either surface, panel mounted in other equipment housings or DIN rail mounted in other equipment housings. Surface mounting is achieved by using the MESMB surface mount box which accepts a single module. This box has a frosted plastic lid with viewing windows for the product identification label, LED s and address switches. This document is not intended to be used for installation purposes.

M Single input module The M series modules are designed for use with any NOTIFIER protocol fire alarm control panel and include selectable loop isolation in every device. The M module monitors a single input device circuit of normally open dry contact alarm activation devices. These modules use one of available module addresses on a loop and respond to regular polls from the control panel reporting its type and the status (open/normal/short) of its supervised device circuit.

Non Addressable Zone Monitor Module MCZR The MCZR nonaddressable zone monitor module allows a zone of nonaddressable detectors to communicate with a Notifier analogue addressable system. As a result existing nonaddressable loops can be integrated into a Notifier addressable system The module monitors a zone of twowire nonaddressable smoke detectors. Each MCZR uses one of available module addresses on a loop. The nonaddressable zone can be powered from the analogue communication line or from an external power supply. Where the nonaddressable zone is powered from an external power supply, the communication line is fully isolated from the nonaddressable zone and from the power supply. This MCZR nonaddressable Zone Monitor module fits into MESMB, MEDIN or MEPMB. These may then be installed in a Rack Assembly using Notifier Rack mounting adapters.

M Single output module The M series modules are designed for use with any NOTIFIER protocol fire alarm control panel and include selectable loop isolation in every device. The M control module provides a monitored single output circuit for use with polarised loads (sounder circuit) which requires a suitable power source (Vdc 3Vdc) for the connected load. Alternatively the same device may be placed in to an unsupervised mode which can then be used to control any switched load up to A @ 3Vdc. In addition the M4 and the M4DIN provide two ( x N.O. x N.C.) 5Vac (nominal 3Vac), 5Amp contact outputs. The M4 is provided complete with a surface mounting back box and the M 4DIN is supplied in a DIN rail mounting package. These modules use one of available module addresses on a loop and respond to regular polls from the control panel reporting its type and the status (open/normal/short) of its supervised device circuit.

M Dual Input Module The M series modules are designed for use with any NOTIFIER protocol fire alarm control panel and include selectable loop isolation in every device. The M dual monitor module provides two supervised input device circuits of normally open dry contact alarm activation devices.

Terminal 5 is internally connected to terminal 4. To enable output circuit supervision, the link supplied must be fitted across terminals 6 and, and the load must be polarised. 3 In supervised mode, the module monitors the power supply voltage across terminals and to ensure it does not drop below V, and also monitors for a switched negative fault signal from the power supply to terminal (optional). If a fault is seen the yellow LED will blink, and a fault may be indicated at the panel. The use of this fault warning is dependant upon panel software, please consult Notifier Technical support. 4 Up to.5a load can be driven subject to the supply capability, total cable resistance and minimum voltage required by the load. 5 An alternative end of line monitoring option is available for VdS 4 requirements see table. Maximum cable series resistance is R so max. load current is limited by permissible voltage drop along the cable, min. PSU voltage and min. load voltage requirement. eg: Min PSU voltage = V, min load voltage = V, max. series resistance = R, therefore max. current = 3mA [( )/ Amps.] M UnSupervised Connection Detail Notes: (See note ) { Relay Contact Rating: 3VDC, A resistive load N.C C N.O 6 5 4 3 3 6 M 3 6 A B If short circuit isolation is not required, loop output should be wired to terminal 5 and not.
