This information is included as a quick reference installation guide. Refer to
the control panel installation manual for detailed system information. If the
modules will be installed in an existing operational system, inform the opera-
tor and local authority that the system will be temporarily out of service. Dis-
connect power to the control panel before installing the modules.

generaL deSCripTiOn
M500S Supervised Control Modules are intended for use in intelligent, two-
wire systems, where the individual address of each module is selected using
the built-in rotary decade switches. This module is used to switch an external
power supply, which can be a DC power supply or an audio amplifier (up
to 80 VRMS), to notification appliances. It also supervises the wiring to the
connected loads and reports their status to the panel as NORMAL, OPEN,
or SHORT CIRCUIT. The M500S has two pairs of output termination points
available for fault-tolerant wiring and a panel-controlled LED indicator. This
module can be used to replace an M500C module that has been configured for
supervised wiring operation.
COmpaTiBiLiTY reqUiremenTS
To ensure proper operation, these modules shall be connected to listed com-
patible system control panels only.

Wiring
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and reg-
ulations. When using control modules in nonpower limited applications, the
System Sensor CB500 Module Barrier must be used to meet UL requirements
for the separation of power-limited and nonpower-limited terminals and wir-
ing. The barrier must be inserted into a 4˝×4˝×2
