Overview

Edwards intelligent modules are engineered to deliver high-perfor-

mance features, superb reliability, and unbeatable quality. From

control of ancillary equipment, to enhanced signaling functional-

ity, these products add ﬂ exibility and powerful options to Edwards

Signaling intelligent systems.

Designed expressly for small buildings, Edwards Signaling modules

are addressable devices that are uniquely identiﬁ ed on the system

by means of familiar rotary switches. Once registered, they share

data and update status information that determines how the sys-

tem behaves and how connected devices interact with one another.

Unique to Edwards Signaling modules is ground fault detection so

precise that it actually pinpoints the speciﬁ c module where the wir-

ing problem has occurred. This saves hours of troubleshooting and

wire tracing. And only Edwards Signaling provides this important

feature!

The Edwards Signaling family of intelligent modules also offers

contractors and installers simple setup and installation, while

delivering options that take full advantage of intelligent ﬁ re alarm

processing. With a microprocessor in each device, intelligence is

distributed throughout the system so that command decisions are

made instantly at the individual module, rather than bottlenecking

at the control panel.

This not only speeds event processing, it also makes a more robust

and reliable system – so robust, in fact, that when upgrading from

a conventional panel to a Edwards Signaling intelligent system,

you can usually use existing wiring – no twisted or shielded cable

required!

Module Addressing Installation Use a screwdriver to adjust the two rotary switches on the front of the module. Set the TENS rotary switch (0 through 12) for the 10s digit and the ONES rotary switch for the 0 through 9 digit. Insert screwdriver here Compatible electrical box Example: device address 21, set TENS rotary switch to 2 and set the ONES rotary switch to 1. Screw Refer to the Specifications Table for available address numbers.

Class A-B Two-Wire Module E-2WIRE The E-2WIRE module interfaces between conventional two-wire smoke detectors and the Edwards Signaling control panel. It monitors the circuit and smoke detectors, and signals the control panel of any trouble or alarm conditions. The module also regulates and supervises the 24 VDC input power. The E-2WIRE is configured to operate as a two-wire alarm device that does not require alarm verification.
PAGE 4
Dual Input Waterflow, Supervisory Module E-IDCWS The E-IDCWS connects normally open waterflow alarm and supervisory initiating device circuits (IDCs) to the Edwards Signaling control panel. The E-IDCWS is designed for Class B circuit operation. The device address is set using the two rotary switches located on the front of the module. Two consecutive addresses are required. The second address is automatically assigned one number higher that the value set on the rotary switches.
PAGE 5
NAC Module E-NAC The E-NAC connects a supervised output circuit to a signal riser. The output wiring is monitored for open and short circuits. A short circuit causes the module to inhibit the activation of the audible/visual signal circuit so the riser is not connected to the wiring fault. Upon command from the control panel, the module connects the output circuit to the riser input. The output circuit energizes a riser to operate polarized audible and visual signals.
