1OASBOX - TECHNICAL MANUAL
FOREWORD
FOR THE INSTALLER:
Please follow carefully the specifications relative to electric and security systems realization further to the manufactu-
rer’s prescriptions indicated in the manual provided.
Provide the user the necessary indication for use and system’s limitations, specifying that there exist precise specifi-
cations and different safety performances levels that should be proportioned to the user needs. Have the user view
the directions indicated in this document.
FOR THE USER:
Periodically check carefully the system functionality making sure all enabling and disabling operations were made cor-
rectly.
Have skilled personnel make the periodic system’s maintenance. Contact the installer to verify correct system opera-
tion in case its conditions have changed (e.g.: variations in the areas to protect due to extension, change of the access
modes, etc…)
......................................................
This device has been projected, assembled and tested with the maximum care, adopting control procedures in accor-
dance with the laws in force. The full correspondence to the functional characteristics is given exclusively when it is
used for the purpose it was projected for, which is as follows:
1 Output Analogue Addressable Module
Any use other than the one mentioned above has not been forecasted and therefore it is not possible to guarantee its
correct operativeness.
The manufacturing process is carefully controlled in order to prevent defaults and bad functioning. Nevertheless, an
extremely low percentage of the components used is subjected to faults just as any other electronic or mechanic pro-
duct. As this item is meant to protect both property and people, we invite the user to proportion the level of protection
that the system offers to the actual risk (also taking into account the possibility that the system was operated in a de-
graded manner because of faults and the like), as well reminding that there are precise laws for the design and as-
semblage of the systems destinated to these kind of applications.
The system’s operator is hereby advised to see regularly to the periodic maintenance of the system, at least
in accordance with the provisions of current legislation, as well as to carry out checks on the correct running
of said system on as regular a basis as the risk involved requires, with particular reference to the control unit,
sensors, sounders, dialler(s) and any other device connected. The user must let the installer know how well
the system seems to be operating, based on the results of periodic checks, without delay.
Design, installation and servicing of systems which include this product, should be made by skilled staff with the ne-
cessary knowledge to operate in safe conditions in order to prevent accidents. These systems’ installation must be
made in accordance with the laws in force. Some equipment’s inner parts are connected to electric main and therefore
electrocution may occur if servicing was made before switching off the main and emergency power. Some products
incorporate rechargeable or non rechargeable batteries as emergency power supply. Their wrong connection may da-
mage the product, properties and the operator’s safety (burst and fire).

TECHNICAL MANUAL - 1OASBOX
1. GENERAL
1OASBOX module has been designed for advanced fire detection systems managed by FX/50, FX/20 and FX/
10 control panels (and other compatible) equipped with loop operating with AS protocol; it is equipped with 1 relay
output.
The module can be connected to control a magnetic door retainer, an optical-acoustic fire alarm device, a lumi-
nous panel, and to trigger several devices (Sprinkler, explosive charges in skylight automatic opening systems, de-
vices to cut power supply or gas supply, etc.). Relay contacts current carrying capacity is 2A@DC30V. The relay
output can be programmed to control an optical-acoustic alarm device with supervised line.
The relay activated status is indicated by a two-colour LED: steady red light indicates that the output is active,
blinking green light indicates that the communication between the output and the panel is correct, blinking red light
indicates that no 24V power is supplied (when the supervised output is selected).
1OASBOX module communicates with the fire panel over serial loop and in case of correct communication, the
two-colour LED will blink green. The loop is connected to the AS protocol via SIG and -S terminals. This connection
does not require an external power supply unit.
1OASBOX module is supplied with a reduced-dimension plastic housing and is also suitable to be installed on
503-type flush-mount boxes.

4. OVERVIEW AND WIRING DIAGRAM
WARNING: during wiring and installation procedure, make sure panel and loop are disconnected from power.
WARNING
Automatic activation function upon power failure is not active: the relay will not activate when the panel is switched
off for maintenance sessions.
It is strongly recommended not to enable automatic activation function when the output is connected to a device
that might cause damage if activated by mistake.
In this case, according to the application, the relay activation may be dangerous since it could, for example, trigger
explosive charges in skylight automatic opening systems.
When the activation of this function is required, open the module housing and cut the jumper wire as illustrated in
the following paragraphs.

5. ADJUSTMENT OF RELAY OUTPUT OPERATING MODE
Steps to adjust the output relay function in order to set automatic activation in case of power failure:
- open module housing: carefully open the side fixing clips;
- cut the coloured jumper wire on the left side of the microprocessor;
- when finished, close the module housing by closing the side fixing clips.
Please pay attention not to damage the fixing clips when opening the module:

7. ID ADDRESS SETUP
The setup procedure of 1OASBOX module ID address is very easy: it is equipped with three rotary dip
switches corresponding, respectively, to hundreds (x100), tens (x10), and units (x1) of the code to set.
Please consider that code setup is fundamental for the correct identification of the module from the control
panel; the module will be detected as one output module or bell control module.
Example:
1OASBOX module with ID code 035:
If you have to connect another module, set its address starting from 036.
IMPORTANT: do not use the ID addresses 0 (zero) and 255.

To setup module functions, use the dipswitch indicated in “OVERVIEW AND WIRING DIAGRAM” on
page 4.
Functions are listed in the following table:
Note: when 1OASBOX module relay output is set to control optical-acoustic devices over supervised control
lines, the module will be detected as a bell control module and the related output can be silenced from the con-
trol panel.
