Potter ARM-44 Relay Module for PFC-4410RC Series

Ordering Information Number Number Surface Mount Black Box ARM 44 is an auxiliary relay module designed to operate with PFC 4410RC series release panels to provide an additional 8 form C relay outputs in 3 different operating modes The communicates with the ARM 44 via the RS 485 and 24 VDC power connections on the PFC 4410RC Modes relay board can either be installed inside the PFC 4410RC or remotely in a separate backbox The relays can be to either latch or follow the relay activation signal There also a disable switch to prevent the relays from operating when the is being tested or serviced silkscreen under the relay terminals corresponds with the selected mode Mode 1 Mode 2 Mode 3 1 Zone 1 Sup indicates that relay operates with Zone 1 for 1 2 and operates as a Supervisory relay in Mode 3 Out 1 Sup Out 1 indicates that relay operates with Output 1 in 1 as a Supervisory relay in Mode 2 and with Output 1 in 3 1 2 3 1 4 follow the activation of zones 1 4 respectively 5 8 follow outputs 1 4 respectively 1 4 follow the activation of zones 1 4 respectively 5 operates on any supervisory condition 6 operates on any trouble condition 7 8 operate on any alarm condition 1 operates on any supervisory condition 2 operates on any trouble condition 3 4 operate on any alarm condition 5 8 follow outputs 1 4 respectively Relays programmed as a Trouble cannot be made to Relays programmed as supervisory will follow Main board Relay without regards to the Latch Switch position Main Ratings mA Standby mA Max alarm current Maximum current with all relays operating simultaneously Rating amps at 30 VDC max resistive load AWG connected to power limited source Supervisory Relay can be programmed LATCHING NON in the custom program disable all relays move Disable switch to ON make all relays latch move Latch switch to ON Mode 1 operation move Mode 2 and Mode 3 switch to OFF Mode 2 operation move Mode 2 switch to ON Mode 3 operation move Mode 3 switch to ON install the ARM 44 remove the main board of the PFC 4410RC removing battery strain relief and two chassis screws Lift out board and set in safe place The ARM 44 mounts on 4 standoffs the back of the cabinet with screws provided cabinet board of mounts directly back of cabinet behind board PAGE 1 OF 2 Electric Signal Company LLC St Louis MO Phone 866 956 1211 Canada 888 882 1833 www pottersignal com IN USAMFG 5401202 REV E11 15ARM 44RELAY MODULE FOR PFC 4410RC SERIESfirealarmresources com installer can install up to 4 annunciators or a relay module and 3 annunciators The installer must set the rotary switch for the number it is in line For example relay board address 1 annunciator address 2 if wired from panel to relay board then annunciator SWITCH 8 RS 485 ZONE1 ZONE1 SUP ZONE 2 ZONE2 TBL ZONE3 ZONE3 ALM ZONE4 ZONE4 ALM OUT1 SUP OUT1 OUT2 TBL OUT2 OUT3 ALM OUT3 OUT4 ALM OUT4 1202 3 separate cables are required for connection of the ARM 44 to the PFC 4410RC motherboard 2 conductor cable from the 24VNR terminals of the motherboard connects to the 24VDC terminals of the ARM 44 to supply power separate shielded cable connects from the RS 485 terminals of the motherboard to the RS 485 terminals of the ARM 44 the 120 ohm resistor from the RS 485 terminal of the PFC 4410 to the last device VDC SELECTOR SET FOR THE TOTAL OF DEVICES INSTALLED THE RS 485 TERMINALS OHM RESISTOR THE RESISTOR THE PFC 4410RC AND ON THE LAST ONLY THE DRAIN WIRE TO THE S TERMINAL OF PFC 4410RC ONLY DO NOT CONNECT THE DRAIN TO THE ARM 44 CUT THE DRAIN WIRE OFF AT ARM 44 AND INSULATE IT IF MORE THAN ONE IS CONNECTED TO THE RS 4856 CIRCUIT THE WIRE MUST BE SPLICED TOGETHER TO MAKE A PATH TO THE LAST DEVICE WHERE IT IS OFF AND INSULATED RS 485 THE 120R FROM THE PANEL AND ON THE LAST ONLY ZONE1 ZONE1 SUP ZONE 2 ZONE2 TBL ZONE3 ZONE3 ALM ZONE4 ZONE4 ALM OUT1 SUP OUT1 OUT2 TBL OUT2 OUT3 ALM OUT3 OUT4 ALM OUT4 1202 3 PAGE 2 OF 2 IN USAMFG 5401202 REV E11 15ARM 44RELAY MODULE FOR PFC 4410RC SERIESfirealarmresources com
