The CIC can be wired in two different ways.
Fault notification can either be monitored via the Conventional
FAPs Sounder or Zone Circuit.
See overleaf for the alternative wiring methods.
Ensure the pins line up with the ZIM’s terminal connections as
shown.
!
Installation must conform to applicable local installation
codes and
should only be installed by a fully trained
competent person.
Only fit the CIC to the Zone Interface Module (ZIM), when
connecting to a Conventional Control Panel.
The CIC should only be connected to designated zone and
sounder circuits.
Refer to the EMS Wireless Zone Monitor Engineers Guide
(TSD143) for full programming information.
For details on compatible
Conventional Fire Alarm Panels,
refer to document reference
MK51, which is free to download
