NOTE: This module is not approved for use in the European Union, at or above 50VAC or 70VDC.
BEFORE INSTALLING
This information is included as a quick reference installation
guide. Refer to the appropriate control panel installation manual
for detailed system information. If the modules will be installed
in an existing operational system, inform the operator and local
authority that the system will be temporarily out of service.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of
this equipment.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Relay Module, Model EM-1RI, is to be designed for use in activation of the types of products that are generally connected to an intelligent fire alarm system. It provides two sets of form C contacts
that switch together (one DPDT relay). There is also an input that
is capable of monitoring a dry set of contacts for open or closed
conditions. The module also has on-board short circuit isolators
to prevent shorts on the signaling line circuit from disabling more
than one device on the intelligent loop.
COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
To ensure proper operation, this module shall be connected to a
listed compatible control panel.
MOUNTING
The module mounts directly to 4˝ square electrical boxes. The box
must have a minimum depth of 21⁄8˝. Modules must be mounted
with the arrow facing upward for proper operation of the IR programming tool. Surface mounted electrical boxes (SMB500) are
available from System Sensor.

WIRING
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and regulations.
1. Install module wiring in accordance with the job drawings
and appropriate wiring diagrams.
NOTE: Separate cable entry openings must be used to maintain
required spacing between power limited and non-power limited wiring. Optional EA-CB may be required to separate power
limited and non power limited wiring in the electrical box.
2. Set the address on the module per job drawings using the IR
configuration tool (model no. EA-CT).
3. Secure module to electrical box (supplied by installer).
AUTO ADDRESSING
Eclipse Series devices are capable of supporting auto addressing,
if the fire alarm control panel is designed to do so. In auto addressing, the control panel, through the use of each device’s onboard isolators, can automatically assign device addresses.
Figure 2: Wiring Diagram
In order to control which devices are addressed first in wiring
configurations with branches, a branch marker can be set at a
particular device. A branch marker is an electronic value from 0 to
255 stored in the device memory. The branch markers are set with
the IR configuration tool, EA-CT.

All relay switch contacts are shipped in the standby state (open)
state, but may have transferred to the activated (closed) state during shipping. To ensure that the switch contacts are in their correct state, modules must be made to communicate with the panel
before connecting circuits controlled by the module.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
