General Description
The CRRS-MODA polarity reversing relay/synchronization
module is intended for use with 2-wire and 4-wire i3
series detectors equipped with a built-in sounder, models
C2WTA-BA, C4WTA-BA, C4WTAR-BA, and C4WITAR-
BA. It is designed to allow all the detectors in the same
loop to sound when one of the detectors goes into alarm,
and to synchronize their audible output. The CRRS-MODA
also allows the silencing of the detector sounders from the
alarm control panel.
The CRRS-MODA may be used with an alarm zone that
provides coded output for fire and continuous output for
burglary. By default the CRRS-MODA’s switch is set to
“off”. Therefore, the CRRS-MODA will only trigger when
the alarm output is coded. In this manner, smoke detec-
tors will only sound from the result of a fire, and not from
a burglary alarm. In this mode, the detectors will provide a
synchronized, coded output.
The CRRS-MODA can also be set to only trigger on con-
tinuous alarm zone signals by selecting the switch to “on”.
In this mode, the detectors will provide a synchronized,
coded output.
NOTICE: This manual shall be left with the owner/user of
this equipment.
NOTE: If your panel configuration does not match any
of the provided wiring diagrams, please contact System
Sensor technical services at 1-800-SENSOR2 for assis-
tance.
Installation
Mount module in a 4” square electrical box adjacent to the
control panel.
WARNING
When calculating total current draw of the control panel,
remember to add current consumption (25mA) for the
polarity reversal relay module (CRRS-MODA).
IMPORTANT: If the fire alarm output signal is coded, set
the switch on the CRRS-MODA to “OFF”. If the fire alarm
output signal is continuous, set the switch to “ON”.
Wiring
IMPORTANT: All polarities must be observed!
1. Connect the CRRS-MODA module trigger wire to the
fire alarm output terminals.
A. Alarm/Bell output: (Figures 1 and 2)
Connect the purple wire to the Alarm or Bell output.
B. Alarm relay, normally open contact: (Figures 3 and 4)
1. Connect one end of the alarm relay contact output
to positive auxiliary or detector power fire alarm
output.
2. Connect the purple wire to the other end of the
alarm relay contact output.
2. Connect the red and black wires to the panel auxiliary
or detector power (red to positive, black to negative).
3. 2-wire models
Connect the yellow and orange wires to the panel initiat-
ing circuit (yellow to positive, orange to negative).
4-wire models
Connect the yellow and orange wires to the panel detec-
tor power circuit (yellow to positive, orange to negative).
4. 2-wire models
Connect the brown and white wires to the smoke detec-
tor power supply input (brown to positive, white to nega-
tive).
4-wire models
Connect the brown and white wires to the smoke detec-
tor power circuit (brown to positive, white to negative).
NOTE: In an alarm condition, a wiring-fault
trouble state may also register at the panel
when the CRRS-MODA is used.

Testing
Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the system
is undergoing maintenance and will temporarily be out of
service
Test in accordance with CAN/ULC S536 test methods,
inspections, and testing frequency.
1. Confirm that all smoke detectors connected to the CRRS-
MODA module(s) contain a sounder and the sounders are
activated upon power reversal.
2. Initiate an alarm with one of the smoke detectors con-
nected to the CRRS-MODA module using any approved
test method. In the alarm state, all the detectors connected
to the CRRS-MODA module must be sounding their sound-
ers.
3. Reset the system from the control panel. All smoke
detector sounders should be silent.
4. If the fire alarm panel also functions in burglary, initiate
a burglary alarm and ensure the smoke detectors do not
sound.
