SIGA-UM Universal Class A/B Module
Description
The SIGA-UM Universal Class A/B Module is an addressable
module that you can configure to provide one of the following:
•
Two Class B dry contact initiating device circuits
•
One Class A dry contact initiating device circuit
•
One Class A or Class B notification appliance circuit
•
One Class A or Class B verified two-wire (conventional)
smoke detector circuit without dry contact initiating devices
on the same circuit
•
One Class A or Class B unverified two-wire (conventional)
smoke detector circuit with or without dry contact initiating
devices on the same circuit
•
One Form C dry contact relay output
The SIGA-UM requires two device addresses on the signaling
line circuit (SLC). Addresses are assigned electronically. There
are no addressing switches.
Diagnostic LEDs provide visible indication of the status of the
module:
•
Normal: Green LED flashes
•
Alarm/active: Red LED flashes

Personality codes
Use the personality codes described below to configure the
SIGA-UM module. See Table 1 on page 2 for listing
information. See Table 2 on page 8 for personality code
electrical characteristics.
Alarm - NO latching (Class B). Factory
Personality code 1:
default. Configures input 1 or 2 for Class B, normally open dry
contact initiating devices (e.g., pull stations, heat detectors,
etc.). When the NO input contact of an initiating device is
closed, an alarm signal is sent to the loop controller and the
alarm condition is latched at the module.
2: Alarm - NO delayed latching (Class B).
Personality code
Same as code 1 except that contact closure must be
maintained for approximately 16 seconds before an alarm
signal is sent. This code is only for use with nonretarded
waterflow alarm switches.
3: Active - NO nonlatching (Class B).
Personality code
Contact closure causes an active instead of an alarm status
and does not latch at the module. Code 3 is typically used for
monitoring fans, dampers, and doors.
Active - NO latching (Class B). Contact
Personality code 4:
closure causes an active instead of an alarm status, which is
latched at the module. Code 4 is typically used for monitoring
supervisory and tamper switches.
Signal - dry contact output. Configures
Personality code 8:
the module as a Form C dry relay contact to control external
appliances (door closers, fans, dampers) or equipment
shutdown. Note: Jumper JP1 must be moved to pins 2 and 3
for dry contact operation.
Alarm - NO latching (Class A). Configures
Personality code 9:
the module for connection of Class A, normally open dry
contact initiating devices (e.g., pull stations, heat detectors,
etc.). When the NO input contact of an initiating device is
closed, an alarm signal is sent to the loop controller and the
alarm condition is latched at the module.
Personality Code 10:
Same as code 9 except that contact closure must be
maintained for approximately 16 seconds before an alarm
signal is sent. Code 10 is typically used with waterflow alarm
switches.
Personality code 11:
Same as code 9 except that contact closure causes an active
instead of an alarm status, and does not latch at the module.
Personality code 11 is typically used for monitoring fans,
dampers, and doors.
