Installation
FireShield Technical Reference Manual 2.11
Connecting a CTM module
The CTM4.7 City Tie Module is an interface between the
control panel notification appliance circuit and a master box. It
provides off-premises signal transmission for systems that
must comply with NFPA requirements for Auxiliary
Protective Systems. The CTM4.7 activates a local energy fire
alarm box, which provides a 24 Vdc alarm signal (current
limited at 200 mA). The 4.7 KΩ end of line resistor required
by the NAC is built in to the CTM4.7.
Requirements
When connecting a CTM to the panel, the following hardware
and programming requirements must be met:
• The NAC used must be dedicated to CTM use only
• All alarm zones must be programmed to activate the
dedicated NAC
• The NAC used must not be programmed for Signal
Silence
