Description
The PAD100-ZM module uses one (1) address on an SLC Loop when monitoring two (2) Class B or one (1) Class A circuit. The module requires and supervises a 24VDC auxiliary power connection. The 24VDC power source must be either a Potter IPA series addressable panel, or a Potter PSN series power supply. The IDC may be wired Class B or Class A which is selectable by an on board DIP switch. The PA D100-ZM employs one red LED to indicate the module’s status. In normal condition, the LED flashes when the device is being polled by the control panel. When a device is activated, the LED will flash at a fast rate.
Application
The PAD100-ZM is compatible with Potter’s IPA and AFC/ARC series addressable fire alarm control panels. The PAD100-ZM is used to supervise a zone of conventional 2-wire smoke detectors on an Initiating Device Circuit (IDC). The PA D100-ZM is capable of monitoring two (2) separate Class B or one (1) Class A circuits.
Setting the Address
Each addressable SLC device must be assigned an address. The address is set using the DIP switch located on the PA D100-ZM. When the PAD100-ZM is used to monitor two individual Class B circuits a single device address is assigned, each input is then identified as a sub-point of the module address. For example, if the address number is assigned as “8”, the B1 input will be “8.1” and the B2 input will be “8.2”.
Before connecting a device to the SLC loop, take the following precautions to prevent potential damage to the panel or device:
- Power to the device is removed.
 - Field wiring is correctly installed.
 - Field wiring has no open or short circuits.
