Specifications
5C3B9@D9?> The RS-1 Solenoid release / initiat-
ing device card provides one supervised solenoid
output circuit. This circuit electrically energizes
the coil of a releasing agent control valve and is
equipped with "Trouble" and "Trip" L.E.D. indica-
tors for complete valve supervision and activation
monitoring. An on-board auxiliary alarm (release)
contact is supplied making remote signaling upon
solenoid activation easily implemented. This card
is also equipped with one Class B initiating device
circuit that is jumper selectable for either alarm or
supervisory field components. A meter read switch
is provided to activate alarm point location on the
circuit when used in systems employing the Protectowire Alarm Point Location Meter.

Trip - When the releasing output circuit is triggered by the appropriate pro-
grammed zone/s, the solenoid coil is energized opening the control valve allowing the extinguishing agent to be expelled.
The "Trip" indicator (red) will light showing that voltage has been supplied to the releasing circuit field terminals. Cross-
zoned operation is achieved through the use of the
ZV-91 (see option V) or by removing micro-
jumper MJ3 and applying activation signals to the
designated terminals of the Main Board MB-91A
or Expander Board EB-91A.

Prior to servicing the control panel the solenoid coil/s must be disconnected to prevent accidental
release of extinguishing agents. Simply toggle the "SOL. DISC." Switch down to the "OUT" position. A Solenoid trouble
condition will be indicated. Press "TRO. SIL." To silence the system. *)*#*%*%$)+($)*

<1B=- A shorted detection or supervisory device will initiate the circuit to an alarm condition. Detection devices will cause
the system to function in the fire alarm mode of operation. The on card zone "Alarm" indicator (red) will light steady; the
"Sys. Alarm." indicator (red) on the Control Card CC-91A will light steady. The common alarm contacts on the MB-91A
will transfer, and the common alarm Notification Appliance Circuits will operate. Any auxiliary panel functions designed to
operate upon an alarm condition, will operate at this time.
