iO Series life safety systems are a powerful intelligent solution for small to mid-sized buildings. Advanced analog technology delivers the benefits of flexible system installation,
while a clean and easy-to-operatate user interface makes
panel operation and system maintenance quick and intuitive.

A complete line of accessories

iO Series life safety systems are


supported by a complete line of
intelligent detectors, modules and
related equipment, each of which
is fully tuned and tested to operate in concert with one another to
provide highly reliable service and
years of trouble-free operation.

Door Holders
& Relays

Perfect for retrofits


iO Series is particularly wellsuited to retrofit applications.
All connections are made over
standard wiring no shielded
cable required. This means
that in most situations existing
wiring can be used to upgrade
a legacy control panel to iO
Series technology without the
expense or disruption of rewiring the entire building.

iO Series also supports graphic


annunciation with optional RA
Graphic Annunicator interface
modules. Each interface provides
common control, indicators, and
32 LEDS.

Hazardous Location
Devices

Flexibility built right in


Two fully-programmable front
panel switch/LED combinations provide an added
measure of flexibility. Their
slide-in labels take the mystery
out of custom applications,
and present a clean finished
appearance.

Clear-cut remote annunciation


Remote annunciation is a strong suit of the iO64. Up to eight
annunciators can be installed on a single system. Compatible annunciators include a range
of LED and LCD models that
provide zone or point annunciation, as well as common control
capabilities.

Appliances

The smart choice


Signature Series electronic addressing eliminates the tedium
of setting dipswitches, and automatic device mapping ensures that each device resides on the system at its correct
location. Meanwhile, innovative programming features allow
the system designer to customize powerful built-in features
to precisely suit the needs of
the building owner.

Signals with a difference


iO Series NACs are configurable to fully support the advanced signaling technology of Edwards Genesis and Enhanced Integrity notification appliances. These devices offer
precision synchronization of strobes to UL 1971 standards.
For Genesis devices, enabling this feature allows connected
horns to be silenced while strobes on the same two-wire
circuit continue to flash until the panel is reset.

as well as mounting bases, multiple-function input and output
modules, and user-friendly maintenance

Making the best of true multisensor capability, Signature Series detectors continually monitor the protected space with their
on-board sensors, each of which is finely
tuned to detect a different characteristic
of combustion. All this informat ion is
gathered and run through a sophisticated
algorithm that compares the sensor readings over time to known signatures of fires.
Only when a match is found will an alarm
condition occur. This means that a single
multisensor detector can distinguish between a harmless puff of dust and a wisp
of smoke; between hot, humid weather
and a serious life safety condition.

Automatic Device Mapping The Signature Loop Controller learns where each devices serial number address is
installed relative to other devices on the circuit. This mapping function is invaluable for tracking down unexpected
or missing device addresses, or finding changes to wiring.
The System Definition Utility program also uses this mapping feature to produce system layout or As-Built drawings
showing such details as banch wiring (T-taps), device types
and their addresses.

Testing & Maintenance Each detector automatically identifies when it is dirty or defective and causes a dirty detector
message. The detectors sensitivity measurement can also
be transmitted to the loop controller. A sensitivity report may
be printed to satisfy NFPA sensitivity measurements. The
user-friendly maintenance program shows the current state
of each detector and other pertinent messages. When the
CO sensors electrochemical cell reaches its end of life, the
detector signals a trouble condition to the control panel. The
sensor/daughterboard module is field-replaceable.

Self-diagnostics and History Log Signature Series devices constantly run self-checks to provide

Combination CO/Fire Detectors


Initiating
Devices

In addition to integrated smoke and heat sensors, Signature Series combination life safety
devices include electrochemical carbon dioxide sensors. CO detection has rapidly become
a standard part of life safety strategies everywhere. Monitored CO detection is becoming
mandated with increasing frequency in all types of commercial applications, but particularly
in occupancies such as hotels, rooming houses, dormitories, day care facilities, schools,
hospitals, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes. In fact, more than half of the U.S.
population already lives in states requiring the installation of CO detectors in some commercial occupancies. This is because carbon monoxide is the leading cause of accidental
poisoning deaths in America. Known as the Silent Killer, CO is odorless, tasteless, and
colorless. It claims nearly 500 lives, and results in more than 15,000 hospital visits annually.

Intelligent Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detector

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 firefighters
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.

The SIGA-WTM Waterflow/Tamper Module is a two circuit intelligent module. Circuit 1 is for Class
B normally-open waterflow alarm switches. When the input contact is closed for approximately 16
seconds, an alarm signal is sent to the loop controller. Circuit 2 is for Class B normally open dry
contact supervisory and tamper switches. When the input contact is closed, an active signal is
sent to the loop controller. Conditions on both circuits are latched at the module.

The SIGA-IM Isolator Module is an intelligent device that allows part of the Signature data loop
to continue operating in the event of a short circuit. The module can be wired into a Class
A data loop at any point. A maximum of 96 isolator modules can be installed on one circuit.
If a fault occurs, the isolator cuts power to all devices beyond the isolator on the loop. Once
activated, the line fault isolator continuously checks the faulted side of the loop to determine
if the short still exists. When the fault is cleared, the module automatically restores the entire
data loop to its normal condition.
Data Sheet: 85001-0271

Monitor Module
The SIGA-MM1 is a single-circuit intelligent module that includes a Class B normally-open dry
contact. This is used for monitoring input from devices such as fans, dampers, and doors.
When the input contact is closed, an active signal is sent to the loop controller. The active
condition is not latched at the module.

The Signal Master is a simple-to-use accessory that adds enhanced features to Genesis and Integrity strobes and Horn-Strobes. It is a dual-purpose
module that provides UL 1971 required precision synchronization for connected Integrity and Genesis strobes, and independent control for connected
Genesis Horns over a single pair of wires. Two methods of Horn control are
available: traditional Horn silence; or, normally-closed contact. Both methods
may be used to silence Horns without turning off strobes on the same circuit.
Two models are available. The Genesis piggyback model doesnt require a
separate electrical box. It simply snaps to the back of the first G1 signal on the
circuit. The remote mount model mounts in a North American 2 inch (64 mm)
deep one-gang box.

Edwards hazardous location devices provide reliable life safety protection and emergency signaling in areas where
atmospheres could become harsh or explosive. All hazardous location devices are UL rated under the full range of
classifications set out in the National Electrical Code.
The following classification definitions are an interpretive summary based on the 1996 edition of the National Electrical Code (NEC, NFPA 70). Refer to the latest editions of NFPA 497M, NFPA 70 and the UL Hazardous Location
Equipment Directory for current and more detailed information. For more information on NEMA classifications, refer
to NEMA Standards Publication No. 250.

Hazardous Location Classifications


Classes
Class I - Hazardous Gases. Class I locations are areas in which flammable gases or vapors are or may be present in the air in quantities
sufficient to produce explosive or ignitable mixtures.
Typical Class I Hazardous Areas
Spray painting and finishing areas
Utility gas plants
Petroleum refining production plants
Petroleum dispensing locations
Dry cleaning facilities
Dip tanks containing combustibles or flammable liquids
Plant facilities extracting solvents
Inhalation anesthetics areas
Process facilities manufacturing pyroxylin type plastics
Class II - Hazardous Dusts. Class II locations represent areas that are
hazardous due to the presence of combustible dust.

Class III - Hazardous Fibers. Class III locations have easily ignitable
fibers or flyings present, but not likely to be suspended in air in quantities
sufficient to produce ignitable mixtures in the atmosphere.

* Except if wood flour (dust), which is Class II Group G, is present

Groups

Class I and II locations are divided by the NFPA into Group


designations identifying specific gases, vapors and dusts by
characteristic similarities that relate to specific equipment
construction requirements. Class III locations are not divided
into separate group designations.
Class I Groups
Group A. Atmospheres containing acetylene.
Group B. Atmospheres containing hydrogen, fuel and
combustible process gases containing more than 30 percent
hydrogen by volume, or gases or vapors of equivalent hazard
such as butadiene, ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, and
acrolein.

Relays

Four-Voltage SPDT/DPDT Control Relays


MR Series multi-voltage control relays are ideal for applications where local contacts are
required for system status, remote contacts, or for control of electrical loads and general purpose switching. They are suitable for use with HVAC temperature control, fire alarm, security,
energy management, and lighting control systems. Relays provide 10-Amp contacts, which
may be operated by one of four input control voltages. Each relay position contains a red
LED that indicates the relay coil is energized. Relays may be snapped apart from a standard
four-module assembly and used independently.

Door Holders
& Relays

Edwards electromagnetic door holders keep doors open until signaled by the
fire alarm system, a heat detector, a smoke detector, or an electrical switch.
Door holders should be installed wherever doors may be effectively used to
confine smoke and fire, or where the release of a self-closing door from a
remote location is required. Fail-safe operation is an inherent feature of these
door holders. If power fails, doors are released automatically, but may be
opened or closed manually at any time. All units are free of moving parts, are
self-contained, and require no maintenance. Door holders have a holding force
of approximately 15-25 Lbf (66-111N).

SPDT Relays
Single-pull/double-throw relays are ideal for applications where local or remote contacts are required for control of electrical loads. They are suitable for use with HVAC,
temperature control, fire alarm, security, energy management, and lighting control
systems. Each relay position contains a high-intensity LED which, when illuminated,
indicates the relay coil is energized. Individual relay circuits may be snapped apart
from standard four- or eight-position modules, and are also available in a single-circuit
configuration. The common power to each relay position is bussed on the printed
wiring board, which permits power to be connected only once per multi-position
module.

Single-Voltage Manual Override Relays


MR-600 series relays provide SPDT, 10-Amp contacts with manual override capability by means of an ON-AUTO-OFF
switch. The relay requires a 24Vac or 24Vdc power source supplied by the controlling system. With the switch in the ON
position the power relay is energized. With the switch in the AUTO position the relay is allowed to operate as signaled
by the controlling system. With the switch in the OFF position the relay cannot be energized.
