Overview
The 4100-6062 TFX Interface (hereafter referred to as the TFXi)
provides the following functionality:
•
It allows a 4100U or a 4100ES Fire Alarm Control Panel
(FACP) to transmit specific events (Fire, Trouble, Supervi-
sory, Signal Silence, System Reset, Control, Utility, etc.)
over the TFXnet to TFX fire panels and annunciators.
•
It monitors the state of specific TFX points, and turns on the
FACP pseudo points when the state of the TFX point
changes. These pseudo points can be associated with spe-
cific system actions (for example perform a system reset on
the FACP), or they can be utility pseudo points linked to
Custom Control equations that perform facility-specific
actions (for example, turn on relays).
The TFXi consists of a 2" x 11.5" motherboard, which mounts to
the chassis of an FACP, and a daughter card, containing an RS-
232 connector and TFXi firmware, that mounts in a socket on the
motherboard.
Battery current requirements for the 4100-6062 TFX Interface
Module are as follows:
•
Supervisory Current = 132 mA
•
Alarm Current
= 132 mA
