This copper network card is used to allow messages of status
and control data to pass between control panels and network
(or terminal) nodes in a networked fire system. The card must
be plugged into the backplane of each panel and node in a
dedicated slot. When it is plugged into the slot P8 on the
backplane the external cables must be connected to terminal
block P10, which is also located on the backplane.
The dual-in-line switches on the card are set to program the
address number and baud rate.
