Page 5: Introduction To The R-Series#1
Introduction to the R-Series The R-Series Remote Annunciators and Expanders provide remote annunciation for fire and emergency alarm systems. The annunciators offer LCD or LED annunciation, and can include common controls. The expander uses LEDs. The R-Series includes three annunciator models and one expander model. One or two expanders can be connected to any of the annunciator models.
Page 6 The annunciators communicate with the FACP on the RS-485 data riser. This can be configured for Class A or Class B communication. The annunciators do not provide ground fault isolation. The annunciators are stand-alone units that can be powered by the FACP or by an approved power supply.

Page 10: Installing Annunciators And Expanders#6
Installing annunciators and expanders For correct operation, the annunciator must be configured with a unique address, must have the correct baud rate setting, and must be in communication with the FACP. If you are installing a Remote Annunciator and Remote Expanders into RA-ENC2 or RA-ENC3 enclosures, you must install the expanders first.
