Signature Driver Controller Modules
The 3-SSDC1 and 3-SDDC1 Signature Driver Controller modules provide
an intelligent interface between the SFS1-CPU module and Signature Series
devices. Each module contains its own microprocessor used to coordinate,
process and interpret information received from and sent to Signature de-
vices. Power and communications is received directly from the control panel
rail assembly. The 3-SSDC1 Single Signature Driver Controller module sup-
ports one Signature Data circuit, while the 3-SDDC1 Signature Dual Driver
Controller module supports two Signature circuits. Both modules occupy
one rail space in the fire alarm control cabinet and provide removable field
wiring terminals to aid installation.
Innovative design gives the 3-SSDC1/3-SDDC1 and Signature devices truly
“distributed intelligence”. Signature detectors and modules have their own
on-board microprocessor communicating with the loop controller in a fully
digital communication format. This increases the accuracy of the information
coming to and from the loop controller by reducing the effects of capacitance
and noise.
With decentralized intelligence much of the decision making moves from the

EST3X
The Modem Communicator is a two-way local rail module that performs a variety
of off-premise communications functions for the EST3X system unavailable on any
other system. The module has provisions for supervising two loop-start telephone
lines. It features a modular jack for telephone line connections, as well as database
download from a PC. The Modcom’s configuration and firmware can also be updated
from any network node.
Modcom series modules occupy a single local rail space and can be mounted in any
node on the network. Any EST3X Control/Display module can be mounted on the
face of a Modcom series module. Power for the Modcom is supplied by the EST3X
system supply.
The Modcom provides an enhanced level of survivability in the event of a network

CPU failure by notifying the Central Monitoring Station of the failure and entering a
degraded mode of operation. In degraded mode, the Modcom can transmit a default
fire alarm message during a fire alarm condition.
Two versions of the Modcom are available:
3-MODCOM - This internal modem is a V.32bis 14.4K baud full duplex modem. The
modem permits the remote upload and download of system data via a telephone line.
3-MODCOMP – In addition to all modem and dialer (DACT) functions of the
3-MODCOM, the 3-MODCOMP can dial directly into paging systems using Telelocator
Alphanumeric Protocol (TAP). Alphanumeric system data can be sent to a single pager
or groups of pagers. Some pager services can forward messages via e-mail and Fax.

Configuring EST3X audio is a matter of selecting components for installation in standard fire
alarm cabinet assemblies. EST3X uses zoned amplifiers. This reduces wire runs and space
needs at a central location. Audio control equipment and zoned amplifiers use the same system
power supplies as fire alarm components. All these components are supported by a common
standby battery. Where multiple nodes make up the system, a single pair of wires carries eight

Carbon Monoxide
and 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. 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. Car­bon monoxide is the leading cause of
accidental poisoning deaths in America. Known as the “Silent Killer,” CO is odorless,
tasteless, and colorless. It annually claims nearly 500 lives, and results in more than
15,000 hospital visits.

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.

Synchronization Output Module
 
 
 
  
The Synchronization Output Module is an intelligent device that connects a supervised output
circuit to a 24 Vdc riser. The output wiring is monitored for open circuits and short circuits.
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
Signature loop controller, the Auto-Sync Output Module connects the output circuit to the
riser input. The output circuit operates polarized audible and visual appliances that have an
adjustable resynchronizing feature.

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.

High Power Speaker Arrays
Hyperspike High Power Speaker Arrays (HPSA) employ exclusive technology that delivers
lightweight and acoustically sophisticated solutions for outdoor mass notification installations.
These rugged units are among the industry’s smallest in physical size, yet they reproduce
some of the clearest (up to 0.91 STI, source-dependant) and loudest (up to 126 dBA Fast @
1m) audio signals available. Loudspeaker heads are as small as 13.2” (33.5 cm) in diameter
and 24.7” (62.7 cm) in height. A single panel unit weighs as little as 16 lb (7.3 kg).
Hyperspike assemblies are AC powered with DC backup. They come with a lockable NEMA 4
Electronics Control Cabinet (ECC) that holds the amplifier and battery charger, and a lockable
NEMA 4 battery enclosure. Loudspeakers come pre-assembled with an eight foot (2.4 meter)
¾-inch liquid-tight flexible conduit whip and wire leads. Batteries and battery enclosures are
ordered separately.

SPDT Relays
Single-pull/double-throw relays are ideal for applications where local or remote con-
tacts 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.

 EDWARDS Strategic Partners:
Innovation, leadership,
and a rich tradition of excellence...
Whether EDWARDS life safety systems are protecting the lives and livelihoods
of the people who make businesses run, or the lives entrusted to the care of
public institutions; whether they’re charged with protecting the guests of the
world’s finest hotels, or preserving irreplaceable artifacts that bring history to life;
EDWARDS stands alone as the brand closely associated with some of the most
important and far-reaching developments in the life safety industry today.

Our strength is in our Strategic Partners — the people and organizations

we entrust with the technology that has charted the course of life safety protec-
tion for decades. Strategic Partners are not middlemen or go-betweens. They
are independent contractors who add value to the EDWARDS life safety solution.
As insiders, they enjoy exclusive access to products, custom design innovations,
and factory training. Yet as successful independent contractors, they are adept
at ensuring that each submittal is strong and competitive, and that each bid is
locally relevant to your installation. As local businesses they not only have to earn
your trust — they have to keep it.

Together these strengths set EDWARDS installations apart, and have

earned this brand a special place among life safety and security solutions avail-
able today. Perhaps that’s why many of the world’s most cherished landmarks
are protected by EDWARDS products. From the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Muse-
um in Egypt, to the modern-day sphinx at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, profes-
sionals who design, own and occupy the world’s most impressive structures
have chosen the EDWARDS solution.
