- Notification Circuits: Two Class B NACs at 2.5 A each (3.75 A total) with strobe synchronization.
- Integrated Power Supply: 3.75 A system power with battery backup support.
- Flexible Wiring: One Class B loop, convertible to Class A with SA-CLA adapter.
- Relay Outputs: Includes Form C alarm and trouble relays plus Form A supervisory relay.
- LCD Operator Interface: Four-line (4×20) backlit display for configuration and diagnostics.
- Programmable Switches: Two front-panel switches with LEDs and custom labeling.
- Advanced Detection Support: Auto-programming, device mapping, and adjustable sensitivity.
- Remote Annunciation: Supports up to eight K-R series LCD, LED, or graphic annunciators.
- Optional Ethernet: Available module for remote diagnostics, reports, and programming.
- Maintenance Functions: Pre-alarm, alarm verification, and two-level service alerts.
- Retrofit Ready: Can reuse existing wiring for many installations.
- Seismic Option: Available earthquake hardening with Importance Factor 1.5.
The VS1-RD provides the advanced control, communication, and safety integration needed for small to mid-sized fire alarm systems.
