Configuring the address for your PAD100-TRTI module is crucial for its proper function within your fire alarm system. You'll set the address using the dip switches located on the device. Each PAD device uses a seven-position dip switch, which allows you to program an address ranging from 1 to 127. Here's a simple guide:
-
Understanding Dip Switch Settings:
- A "gray" box indicates the dip switch is "On."
- A "white" box indicates the dip switch is "Off."
-
Setting the Address:
- By default, with all dip switches in the "Off" position, the device is unaddressed.
- To assign an address to the PAD100-TRTI module, adjust the dip switches to select a unique address.
- Each input and relay will then be a sub-point of the module's address. For instance, if the assigned address is "8," the "RLY1" relay will be identified as "8.1," "RLY2" as "8.2," the "B1" input as "8.3," and the "B2" input as "8.4."

Important Safety Steps:
- Always remove power to the SLC before connecting the device.
- Ensure your field wiring is correctly installed and free from open or short circuits before you proceed.
-
Additional Tips:
- Accurate address configuration is essential for system communication and functionality.
- Consult the installation manual for detailed instructions and guidelines regarding the PAD100-TRTI module setup. Following these steps and referring to your manual will help you successfully set the address for your PAD100-TRTI module and integrate it into your addressable fire system.
