Setting the Loop Address
The analogue address of the Module is set using the first 7
switches of the 8-bit DIL switch, which in the case of the
Standard CHQ is located through the cut-out section on the top
of the PCB cover. On the DIN version, this switch is located on
the edge of the PCB behind the clear door (see Fig 4).
The switches are numbered 1 to 8 (left to right):

The switches should be set using a small-tipped screwdriver or similar.
Refer to the Address Chart (Fig 7) on page 5 for a quick reference on addresses. (contd on page 4)

CHQ-DSC DUAL SOUNDER CONTROLLER provides two independent sounder outputs with open and short circuit monitoring (which
can be disabled). The sounder outputs can be separately driven, continuously or pulsed, under full synchronisation of the fire alarm
panel with other sounders on the same loop. An input is provided with short and open circuit monitoring (which can be disabled).

CHQ-DRC2 DUAL RELAY CONTROLLER is a loop powered input/output module with two independent N/O and N/C volt free
change over relay outputs which can be driven separately. Used for the control of devices such as dampers or for plant and
equipment shutdown. A single input is also provided for local fire and fault monitoring which is fully monitored for open and short
circuit (can be disabled).

CHQ-MRC2 MAINS RELAY CONTROLLER is a loop powered input/output module, with a single mains-rated change-over relay
output, which has the N/O, N/C and COMMON contacts available via screw terminal contacts. This output is driven under the control
of the fire alarm panel and can be used for the control of devices such as dampers or for plant and equipment shutdown. A single
input is also provided for local fire and fault monitoring and this is fully monitored for open and short circuit (can be disabled). Note:The state of the relay contacts will be indeterminate until the unit is powered.

** No fuses are fitted on this device. The relay output circuit must
therefore be protected by a suitable over-current protection device to
prevent excessive current through the relay contacts. Refer to the relay
contact specification in this document.

Installation – "Smart-Fix" Version
Set analogue address before installation (see page 2).
The fixing surface should be dry and stable.
Hold the back plate up against the fixing surface and
mark the position of the four corner fixing holes.
Determine which cut-out sections along the top and
bottom edges of the module require removing to
accommodate the cables being used.
Remove cut-outs by scoring with a sharp knife before
breaking off with pliers or snips.
Mount the back plate using appropriate fixings (not
supplied) for the fixing surface.
Terminate and connect field wiring as per the wiring
diagrams on pages 2 & 3 (and the terminal block
indications on the product label).
The transparent lid (CHQ-LID) is supplied with four screws
and eight retaining washers.
Push the screws through one of the retaining washers
and then through the holes in the lid from front to back,
pushing another retaining washer onto the end inside
the lid.
Screw the lid onto the back plate; do not over tighten
the screws as this could damage the unit.
Fig 7
NOTE: A white plastic version of the lid is available (sold
separately – CHQ-LID(WHT)).
Installation – "Smart-Fix" with Back Box
For those installations requiring glanded cables, a module back box (CHQ-BACKBOX) is available (sold separately).
This features ten knock-out cable entries (glands are not supplied). Ensure glands used conform to IP67, if such ingress
protection is required. The CHQ-BACKBOX is mounted on the fixing surface; the CHQ Module is then fitted to the top of
the back box. Finally the CHQ-LID is added creating a sealed enclosure. For further details refer to the CHQ-BACKBOX
Instructions (2-3-0-800).

Installation – DIN Version
Set analogue address before installation (see page 1) and write loop address in space provided on door label.
DIN modules should be mounted in a suitable enclosure in conjunction with an NS 35 mounting rail with the loop
connections at the bottom of the unit. Hochiki recommends the SMB-2 and SMB-3 Boxes designed specifically for this
purpose.
Terminate and connect field wiring as per the wiring diagrams on pages 2 & 3 (and the terminal block indications on
the product label).
Suitable anti-static precautions must be taken when handling these products.
