B.4 Wiring a Remote Station Fire Alarm System
B.4.1 Overview
The NFPA Remote Station Fire Alarm System standard is intended for connection to a
polarity reversal circuit of a remote station receiving unit having compatible ratings.
All connections are power-limited and supervised with the exception of the reverse
polarity loop (loop supervision is the responsibility of the receiver unit). This section
shows typical applications for wiring a remote station fire alarm system (a Fire•Lite
RS-82 Remote Station Receiver Unit) using a 4XTM module (Figure 133) and using an
RTM-8 (Figure 134).
Note: For remote station fire alarm systems, cut Jumper JP5 on the control panel CPU
board. For additional information on the RS-82 Remote Station Receiver Unit, refer to
the Fire•Lite Alarms, Inc. RS-82 Instruction Manual.
