INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL INFORMATION
Connections and Settings
The 4204CF Supervised Notification Appliance Module adds up to 2
Class B (Style Y) Supervised Notification Appliance Outputs to compatible ADEMCO Control Panels (for more information on Style Y, see NFPA
72 National Fire Alarm Code Chapter 3: Protected Premises Fire Alarm
Systems). Refer to your control panelÕs installation instructions to determine if it supports this module. Each output is supervised using a model
610-7 2K EOL resistor (2 resistors supplied).
Select and set an address for the 4204CF using its DIP switch settings as
shown in Diagram 1. Assign a unique address to the 4204CF so that the
control can communicate with it. Refer to the controlÕs Installation
Instructions to determine which address or range of addresses to use.
Make connections to the control's keypad wiring by using the 4-position
terminal block TB1, or the 4-pin plug (plug cable provided). Make connections to the Notification Appliance Power input and outputs via the
moduleÕs 12 position terminal block (TB2) (refer to Diagrams 2, 3 & 4).
Each appliance output is rated at 1.2A max. You can power these outputs from the Control Panel or from a supplementary UL864 commercial
fire listed (power limited) power supply rated at 8-30 VDC
(regulated)/VFW (full wave rectified, unfiltered).
✓
The 4204CF connects to the control via the control's keypad wiring.
From the Control Panel's keypad wiring, the 4204CF receives output activation commands and sends output supervision status back to the
Control Panel.
The 4204CF has a built-in cover tamper switch, which allows it to detect
and report the removal of its cover to the Control Panel.
SPECIFICATIONS
(163mm x 108mm x 32mm)
Electrical
+12V Input
Input Voltage: +12VDC (10-14VDC)
Input Current: 25mA + 80mA per active output
For fire alarm installations, mount the 4204CF inside a U.L. 864 listed
cabinet such as the controlÕs cabinet or the supplementary power supply
cabinet (if used). Cover tamper supervision is not required; to disable
tamper supervision, set DIP switch Position 1 to the ON position.
Notification Appliance Power Input
Input Voltage: 8-30 VDC or VFW
Input Current: 0 mA when both outputs inactive. Up to 2.4A when
both outputs are active
1. Cover tamper supervision is not supported by all control
panels. For other (i.e. non-fire alarm) installations, a separate enclosure is not required. Mount the 4204CF directly on a surface using the slotted holes located on the back
of its housing (mounting screws provided). Feed the wires
through the slot on the side or through the breakout located on the back of the housing. Cover tamper supervision
can be used, if supported by the control panel.
2. Affix the connections label (provided) to the inside of the
4204CFÕs cover.
Notification Appliance Outputs
Output Voltage: Supplied by notification appliance power input
Output Current: Each output must be limited to 1.2A max
Miscellaneous: Outputs are supervised (Style Y) using 610-7 2K EOL
resistor and are power limited. Refer to the instructions for the notification power supply used for a list of
compatible indicating devices.

1. Only relay 1 (Output A) and relay 3 (Output B) may be programmed for activation. Refer to the controlÕs Installation
Instructions for programming output activation and supervision options.
2. When programming 4204CF output activation options in the
control panel, outputs must not be programmed to ÒClose
for 2 Seconds.Ó Any other option may be used, but do not
program the relay to ÓStopÓ in less than 10 seconds.
