Installing 4101SN Relay Modules
The 4101SN V-Plex Single Output Relay Module is a serial number polling loop output device. The 4101SN features the
following:
•
•
•
• Form C relay contacts rated at 2A, 28VAC/VDC with contact supervision.
• Can be used to trigger auxiliary fire functions such as air handler shutdown, elevator recall, door-holder release,
sound system shutdown, etc.
• One class B/style B EOLR-supervised auxiliary input zone.
• Operating power and communication with control panels via the V-Plex polling loop.
•
Electronics mounted in a small plastic case with tamper-protected cover.
• If using ZONE # for the START of a polling loop output, and want the output to stop when the same zone
restores, the STOP programming must be blank.
• No more than 20 polling loop outputs may be programmed for the same START or STOP condition in Output
Programming.
• The position of the relay is supervised, but not the actual external contact wiring.
Connect the device to the polling loop, terminals 28 (+) and 29 (-). Be sure to observe polarity.
Installing a Remote Keyswitch
A UL-Listed remote keyswitch, such as the Honeywell 4146, can be used for remote arming/disarming of the burglary
part of the system and for silencing alarms. The keyswitch operates in only one particular partition.
The keyswitch is wired across zone 7. This zone is no longer available as a protection zone. Make sure ∗15 is assigned to
part (1-3). This sets zone 7 to response type 05.
Operation
• A momentary short arms the partition in the AWAY mode, and a short held for more than 10 seconds arms the
partition in STAY mode 1. A subsequent short disarms the partition.
• The keyswitch LEDs indicate the partition’s status (see table that follows).
• A momentary short silences Notification Appliance Circuits and keypad sounds, and disarms the system if it was
armed. A subsequent short clears the alarm memory indication and resets 2-wire smoke and glassbreak detectors (if
used).
• The keyswitch can be used to silence fire alarms without disarming the burglary portion (program a “3” in field ∗15).
A momentary short silences alarm outputs only if a fire alarm is present.

In Commercial Fire installations, mount the keyswitch next to the primary keypad on keypad port 2 (J4 header) and
wire in conduit within the same room as the control panel. The keypad displays the UL-required “ALARM
SILENCED” when the keyswitch is used to silence a fire alarm.
LED Indications
Green Red Indication
On Off Disarmed & Ready
Off Off Disarmed & Not Ready
Off On Steady Armed Away
Off Slow Flash Armed Stay
Off Rapid Flash Alarm Memory
The keyswitch reports as user 0, if Open/Close reporting is enabled in field ∗40.
Keyswitch Tamper Operation
For UL Commercial Burglary installations, the tamper switch must be wired to zone 6, see Figure 3-24).
Program zone 6 for Day Trouble/Night Alarm (response type 5). When the keyswitch is removed from the wall, the
tamper switch opens, causing an alarm or trouble on the zone. This also causes the control to disable keyswitch
operation until the tamper is restored and the associated partition is disarmed.
