Installation Sheet
Operation
The E-IDC1B Analog Single Input Mini Module is an analog
addressable device used to connect a normally open, alarm,
supervisory, or monitor type dry contact initiating device
circuit (IDC) to a control panel. This module is designed for
Class B circuit operation.
The device address is set using the two rotary switches
located on the front of the module. One device address is
required.
The module is factory set to operate as an alarm-latching
device. When the NO contact of an initiating device is
closed, an alarm signal is sent to the control panel and the
alarm condition is latched at the module.
Additional device types are available through front panel
programming or the configuration utility. For additional
information, refer to the documents listed on the control
panel label.
