PR-5000 Polarity Reversal/City Tie Module
The PFC-9000 can communicate directly through a hardwire connection. The PR-5000 is a module that will operate by reversing
the polarity or supply power to a fire alarm box.
The polarity reversal is used for a direct connection to a fire department or communication center. The Polarity Reversal provides
a polarity reversal when the panel reaches an alarm state. The contacts on the PR-5000 are marked for the normal condition.
The City Tie is supervised and provides 200 mAmps at 24VDC. If Jumper 1 is removed the PR-5000 will transmit an open when
a trouble occurs.
The PR-5000 must be installed in the left adder location. When the PR-5000 is installed, other communication boards cannot be
installed. The panel will only support one communication board.

UDACT-9100 Universal Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter
The UDACT-9100 is the most common method of connecting the PFC-9000 to a monitoring station. The UDACT-9100 will
communicate using two phone lines with either the Ademco Contact ID or Security Industries Association DCS protocols to a
Central Station or Remote Supervising Station. The UDACT-9100 connects directly to the PFC-9000 chassis and plugs into the
main fire alarm board P4.
The UDACT-9100 is powered and communicates with the PFC-9000 using a single ribbon cable through an RS-485 data link.
The UDACT-9100 is capable of reporting multiple events to a single Account number during a single call session. The device
reports events in the order in which they are received and recognized. The UDACT-9100 will attempt to communicate up to three
times during a single call. The UDACT-9100 is programmed using the CFG-LCD Configuration Tool.
The UDACT-9100 constantly (about once a minute) supervises the integrity of phone lines connected. Any communication failure
will be reported on the other line and a trouble signal will display on the main fire alarm panel.
