NOTE: If two–wire i3 detectors are used in conjunction
with a style D initiating circuit, the 2W–MOD2 must be
used to provide that capability.
Ground fault on a mod-
ule’s two-wire loop can be indicated at a control panel if
the control panel is capable of ground fault detection on
the power supply to the module and meets NFPA 72 ground
fault indication requirements for initiating device circuits.
The installer must verify that capability.

STATUS

CONDITION

The module has loop trouble restoration detection. If the
loop trouble (open loop) doesn’t exist any more, the mod-
ule will restore to standby condition with a maximum delay
of 1 minute. There is no delay in loop trouble detection.
If an alarm occurs while the module is indicating mainte-
nance, the alarm will supercede maintenance.

WARNING

If the green LED remains ON (no blinking) three minutes af-
ter applying power, it means that the module has determined
that no detector on its loop has communication capability.
In this condition, the detectors are still capable of initiating
alarm and loop trouble at the module. However, maintenance
and freeze trouble, will not be indicated at the module, and
EZ walk test will not be available. If i

detectors are installed

on the loop, verify wiring and system operation.

Before Installing
This information is included as a quick reference installa-
tion guide. Refer to the control panel installation manual
for detailed system information. If the modules will be in-
stalled in an existing operational system, inform the opera-
tor and local authority that the system will be temporarily
out of service. Disconnect power to the control panel before
installing the modules.
NOTICE: This manual shall be left with the owner/user of
this equipment.
General Description
The 2W-MOD2 allows a control panel to receive a “need for
maintenance” signal from two–wire i3 series smoke detec-
tors, model numbers 2W–B, 2WT–B, 2WTA–B, and 2WTR–B.
The module uses a form C zone relay to initiate “out of sen-
sitivity” and “freeze trouble”, a form A zone alarm relay and
a second form A zone relay to indicate loop fault (see Figure
1). An EZ Walk Test puts all detectors on the loop into a Walk
Test mode for easy verification of detector loop wiring.

Three LED’s on the module provide a local visual indica-
tion of the module status(es).
The maintenance module allows two-wire smoke detectors to
be used on any electrically compatible four-wire control panel.
