BEFORE INSTALLING
WIRING
This information is included as a quick reference installation guide. Refer to the
appropriate control panel installation manual for detailed system information.
If the modules will be installed in an existing operational system, inform the
operator and local authority that the system will be temporarily out of service.
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances,
and regulations.
1. Install module wiring in accordance with the job drawings and appropri-
ate wiring diagrams.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
NOTE: Separate cable entry openings must be used to maintain required
spacing between power limited and non-power limited wiring. Optional
EA-CB may be required to separate power limited and non power limited
wiring in the electrical box.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Relay Module, Model EM-1RI, is to be designed for use in activation of the
types of products that are generally connected to an intelligent fire alarm sys-
tem. It provides two sets of form C contacts that switch together (one DPDT
relay). There is also an input that is capable of monitoring a dry set of contacts
for open or closed conditions. The module also has on-board short circuit iso-
lators to prevent shorts on the signaling line circuit from disabling more than
one device on the intelligent loop.
2. Set the address on the module per job drawings using the IR configura-
tion tool (model no. EA-CT).
3. Secure module to electrical box (supplied by installer).
AUTO ADDRESSING
Eclipse Series devices are capable of supporting auto addressing, if the fire
alarm control panel is designed to do so. In auto addressing, the control panel,
through the use of each device’s on-board isolators, can automatically assign
device addresses.
COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
To ensure proper operation, this module shall be connected to a listed compat-
ible control panel.
MOUNTING
In order to control which devices are addressed first in wiring configurations
with branches, a branch marker can be set at a particular device. A branch
marker is an electronic value from 0 to 255 stored in the device memory. The
branch markers are set with the IR configuration tool, EA-CT.
The module mounts directly to 4-inch square electrical boxes. The box must
have a minimum depth of 21⁄
inches. Modules must be mounted with the ar-
row facing upward for proper operation of the IR programming tool. Surface
mounted electrical boxes (SMB500) are available from System Sensor.

WARNING
All relay switch contacts are shipped in the standby state (open) state, but may
have transferred to the activated (closed) state during shipping. To ensure that
the switch contacts are in their correct state, modules must be made to com-
municate with the panel before connecting circuits controlled by the module.
