SmartOne® Addressable Input Module (AI)
Intelligent Monitoring for Addressable Fire Protection Systems
The SmartOne® Addressable Input Module (AI) provides intelligent monitoring of external contact devices within KiddeFenwal’s SmartOne® addressable architecture.
Designed for integration with ARIES-SLX® and ARIES®-MLX control units, the Addressable Input Module enables conventional initiating or supervisory devices to be incorporated into an addressable system. Each module is individually addressable and continuously monitored on the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC), providing precise device-level status reporting.
By converting dry-contact inputs into SmartOne® addressable points, the AI module enhances system visibility, simplifies troubleshooting, and supports flexible system design.
Key Advantages
- Intelligent, Addressable Monitoring
Each module has a unique SLC address, allowing the control unit to identify the exact point reporting alarm, supervisory, or trouble conditions. - Flexible Device Integration
Monitors normally open or normally closed dry-contact devices, enabling integration of a wide range of external initiating or supervisory inputs. - Continuous Panel Communication
Maintains ongoing communication with ARIES® control units for real-time status reporting and diagnostics.
- Simplified System Design
Allows conventional contact devices to operate within a SmartOne® addressable environment, reducing zone-based wiring complexity. - Seamless System Integration
Fully compatible with SmartOne® addressable detection and suppression architectures.
Applications
The SmartOne® Addressable Input Module is ideal for monitoring external devices within engineered fire protection systems, including:
- Waterflow switches
- Valve supervisory switches
