Analog Addressable Signaling Line Circuits

The IF610SS analog interface module provides two or four

Signaling Line Circuits (SLC), loop circuits that can monitor

and control up to 198 analog/addressable devices on each

loop, for a total of 792 analog points in a four-loop system.

Each SLC loop has a dedicated microprocessor that simul-

taneously communicates with connected field devices and

the main CPU.

The IF610SS uses the SmartScan™ fully digital communi-

cations protocol for superior speed and accuracy of event

reporting. This protocol provides alarm verification per

detector, detector adjustability and compensation, adjust-

able analog heat detector range, circuit isolation, and prior-

ity interrupts. Priority interrupts allow contact-type devices

such as manual fire alarm stations to interrupt the polling

cycle and transmit their addresses at any time.

With this fully digital protocol, the IF610SS will operate on

most types of field wiring, greatly expanding its use in retro-

fit applications. Consult the supplemental SLC manual or

IF610SS Power Supply

The IF610SS power supply is a fully regulated 6 Amp sup-

ply that furnishes system operating and signaling power. It

is equipped with a battery charger which maintains the sec-

ondary power source. The power supply is monitored by

the main CPU, ensuring that adequate power is available.

The power supply design allows for high efficiency while

providing precise power output. The battery charger main-

tains batteries up to 26 AH. The supply powers two on-

board Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) Class A or B.

Input (I) / Output (O) Devices

Addressable control output devices are the interface

between analog circuits and building functions. The outputs

are controlled by Control By Event (CBE) software within

the IF610SS, and can be programmed to respond to any

event. The control devices can also be used as supervised

remote signaling circuits.

The IF610SS’s RS-232 output expands system monitoring

and control capabilities.

Remote Display and Control

System designers and engineers can add serial annuncia-

tors to display system activity and control. Serial annuncia-

tor drivers are available in 16-point increments and are an

ideal interface to graphic annunciators. Switches can be

used for Acknowledge, Reset, Signal Silence, Drill, etc., to

customize the remote status control network.

An alphanumeric display can also be used for remote sta-

tus and control. The alphanumeric display will communi-

cate over the serial communications network.

The IF610SS can communicate locally or remotely with a

printer to document system activity.

See the RAN/SAN data sheets (CS-2025 and CS-2027) for

complete annunciator details.

Applications

The IF610SS Analog Addressable Control Panel is ideal

for new or retrofit small- to mid-sized projects that require

state-of-the-art life-safety systems. The embedded CPU

offers users unrivaled reliability.

With compatible analog sensors and addressable input and

control interface devices, and its remote status and control

capabilities, the IF610SS provides system engineers with

all the tools necessary to design effective system solutions.
