be used, and onl
y
one notification
appliance output (A or B) may be used on that module.
• If the 4204CF relay is enabled for a NAC, it must follow the action of the NAC on the panel.
• Relays (aux and 4204's) cannot be used for off-premises signaling.
• In Commercial Fire installations, the 4204CF cannot be used to drive sounders in the same physical area as
sounders connected to the alarm outputs of the control panel.
• Output devices are not intended for overriding automatic building and fire functions.
To install the relay modules, see Figures 3-20 and 3-21 and perform the following steps:
Step Action
1
Set the 4204 or 4204CF’s DIP switches for a device address 01-15.
Do not use an address being used by another device (keypads, RF receivers, etc.).
2 Mount the 4204 and 4204CF modules per the instructions provided with them.
3 Connect the module’s wire harness to the control (11, 12, 13 and 14). Plug the connector on the harness to
the module.
When mounting remotely, homerun each module to the control. The table below shows the maximum wire
run lengths. Refer to the instructions provided with the 4204CF for its maximum permissible wire lengths.
