Normally Energized option for the relay output
When FC, ACK, ALARM or HORN is chosen for the relay-
triggering signal, the Normally Energized check box becomes 
activated. By default, the relay output is set to Normally Not-
Energized. When this box is checked, the state of an event gets 
reversed, so that it stays active in its normal state, but inactive in 
its alarm state. Check the Auxiliary board (Part NO: X11-1049) for 
jumper settings. 
 
Dual Output option for the relay output 
This option is available in the future. Once this option is activated, 
the Auxiliary A signal from the micro controller activates both the 
relays A and C, the Auxiliary B signal activates both the relays B 
and D. 
? TRANSISTOR OUTPUT
Choose the signal that will trigger the 
Transistor Output signal from X11CA-
IM. The outcome depends on the 
sequence type of each channel.

If the Field Contact input is not normally energized
:
§ When the Field Contact goes into an
alarm condition, transistor output turns 
ON 
§ When the Field Contact returns to normal
condition, transistor output turns OFF.
