Signal Module
The Signal Module is used to connect, upon command from the loop controller, supervised
Class B signal or telephone circuits to their respective power inputs. Models are available with
one or two power inputs. These may be either polarized 24 Vdc to operate audible and visual
signal appliances, or 25 and 70Vrms to operate audio evacuation speakers and firefighter’s
telephones. The actual function of this module is determined by the “personality code” selected
by the installer. A total of three personalities are available.

Control Relay Module
The Control Relay Module provides a Form C dry relay contact to control external appliances
such as door closers, fans, dampers etc. This device does not provide supervision of the
state of the relay contact. Instead, the on-board microprocessor ensures that the relay is in
the proper ON/OFF state. Upon command from the loop controller, the relay activates the
normally open or normally-closed contact. This module supports only one personality: no user
configuration is required.

Polarity Reversal Relay Module
The Polarity Reversal Relay Module provides a Form C dry relay contact to power and activate
a series of GSA-AB4 Audible Sounder Bases. Upon command from the loop controller, the
GSA-CRR reverses the polarity of its 24 Vdc output, thus activating all Sounder Bases on the
data loop. This module supports only one personality: no user configuration is required.

Synchronization Output Module
The Synchronization Output Module is an analog addressable device that connects a supervised
output circuit to a 24 Vdc riser. The output wiring is monitored for open circuits and short cir-
cuits. A short circuit will cause the fire alarm control panel to inhibit the activation of the audible/
visual signal circuit so the riser is not connected to the wiring fault. Upon command from the
loop controller, the Auto-Sync Output Module connects the output circuit to the riser input.
