Each IZM-8RK/IZE-A zone can be programmed for a variety of initiating devices functions including: dry contact input, two-wire smoke detection, flow, tamper, non-fire, and many others. Note: IZM-8RK/IZE-A for NFS-3030 only.
• The VCM-4RK Voice Control Module provides four Style Y (Class B) or Style Z (Class A) speaker circuits, four Style Y (Class B) telephone circuits, eight manual select switches and indicators. VCE-4 Voice Control Expander adds four circuits to VCM-4. Note: VCM-4/VCE-4 combination must be eight speaker or eight phone circuits.
• The DCM-4RK Dual Channel Module provides four Class B (Style Y) or Class A (Style Z) speaker circuits plus four channel A/B select relays. Not expandable.

Applications and Features

FOR CRM-4RK, CRE-4, AND ARM-4:
The CRM-4RK provides up to four Form-C (SPDT) relay contacts for auxiliary control functions.
The CRE-4 expands the CRM-4RK to a total of eight Form-C (SPDT) relay contacts.
The ARM-4 module can be used when greater load switching capability is required. The ARM-4 is slaved to a CRM-4RK or CRE-4 module.

• Four Form-C (SPDT) relay contacts.
• May be expanded to eight Form-C relay contacts.
• 20 amp N.O. (normally open contacts) and 10 amp N.C. (normally closed contacts) switching with ARM-4.
• Green LEDs to indicate relay activation or I/O mapping.
• Amber LEDs to indicate relay disabled, module fault or system communications failure.
• Control switch for Manual On/Off of each relay.

FOR ICM-4RK AND ICE-4:
Each ICM-4RK provides four supervised audio-visual alarm
notification circuits. The ICM-4K may be expanded with one of
the following:

1. Use the ICE-4 to provide four additional Style Y (Class B) or Style Z (Class A) supervised alarm indicating circuits; OR...
   
2. Use the CRE-4 to provide four SPDT control relays.

• Four alarm notification circuits, expandable to eight.
• Supervised, power-limited outputs, suitable for use with limited energy cable.
• Outputs resound on subsequent alarm.
• Outputs may be programmed as silenceable or nonsilenceable.
• Each circuit is provided with a switch for manual activation/deactivation.
• LEDs for indication of circuit activation and trouble.
• Separate input connections for audible-visual circuit power.

FOR IZM-8RK AND IZE-A:
The IZM-8RK Initiating Zone (Initiating Device Circuit) Module
provides eight Style B (Class B) alarm initiating or supervisory
circuits. The IZE-A Initiating Zone Expander, when used with
the IZM-8RK, provides eight Style D (Class A) alarm initiating
or supervisory circuits.

• Eight zones Style B (Class B) with IZM-8RK; eight zones Style D (Class A) with both IZM-8RK and IZE-A.
• Powered loop allows the use of two-wire smoke detectors/devices. Alarm verification is optional, although if selected, non-fire circuits are not allowed on the same module.
• Initiating circuits are power-limited for use with limitedenergy cable.
• Alarm and Trouble LEDs are provided for individual annunciation of each zone.
• Red LEDs indicate Alarm condition.
• Yellow LEDs indicate circuit Trouble, circuit Disabled, or System communication failure.
• LEDs flash for unacknowledged alarms or troubles and illuminate steady after being acknowledged or silenced.

FOR VCM-4RK AND VCE-4:
The VCM-4RK provides up to four speaker or telephone circuits,
expandable to eight with the VCE-4 (jumper-selectable
for either four speaker circuits or four telephone circuits,
expandable to eight of the same type).

• Four circuits expandable to eight.
• Slide-in label per circuit.
• Soft-feel rubber keypad (VCM-4RK).
• Jumper-selectable for speaker or telephone operation.
• Switches to activate or deactivate the speakers circuits or select a telephone circuit call.
• Green On and amber Trouble LEDs for each circuit.
• Supports 25 or 70.7 (Style Y, Class B only) volt speakers — switches up to 30 watts per circuit or 240 watts per module pair (120 on VCM-4RK and 120 on VCE-4).
• Can mount ICE-4 below VCM-4RK for four speaker or telephone circuits and four strobe circuits.

FOR DCM-4RK:
The DCM-4RK provides up to four dual channel speaker circuits.
Dual channel function allows two speaker circuits to play
two different messages at the same time.

• Four speakers per DCM-4RK module.
• Slide-in label per circuit.
• Soft-feel rubber keypad.
• Switches to activate or deactivate the speakers circuits and the channel (message playing — Message One or Message Two) per circuit.
• Green On and amber Trouble LEDs for each circuit; green On/Off to indicate which message is playing.

Construction

Modules consist of a panel-mounted printed circuit card with an integral tactile rubber membrane switch. Windows in the keypad allow viewing the status and trouble LEDs. Slide-in pockets allow the insertion of descriptive labels for the circuits. Removable terminal blocks are provided for connection of field wiring.

Expansion modules consist of a printed circuit card which mounts behind the master module with the hardware provided. Removable field-wiring terminal blocks are included. The ARM-4 consists of a printed circuit card which mounts on the bottom of the CHS-4N chassis.
