Simplex 4100U Installation & Maintenance

6-7
The Alarm Relay Card mounts on, and is driven by, the SPS. It has 3 relays each
providing one set of voltage-free contacts.
The relays are able to be configured under custom control, but the default operation is for
system status, i.e. Fault (Trouble), Isolate (Supervisory), and Alarm, respectively. These
are commonly used to drive the Brigade signalling.
