Operation
The RB4U Analog Relay Detector Base is designed to add
relay functionality to the listed compatible detectors. Form C
latching relay contacts are included for the control of
appliances such as door closers, fans, dampers, etc.
The base does not require a separate address because it
shares the address of the device it is connected to.
Installation
Cautions
• To avoid accidental damage to the panel, disconnect all
power before wiring the unit.
• Electrical supervision requires the wire run to be broken at
each terminal. Do not loop the signaling circuit field wires
around the terminals.
To install the base:
1. Install a compatible electrical box, then pull all wiring into
the box.
2. Make all wiring connections as shown in “Wiring” below
3. Attach the base plate to the electrical box using the
screws provided with the electrical box.
4. Attach the trim ring to the base plate. Align the marks on
the trim ring and base plate, press the trim ring onto the
base plate, and then rotate the trim ring until it locks into
place.
5. Attach the desired detector to the base. Align the arrows
on the detector and trim ring, press the detector into the
base, and then rotate the detector until it locks into place.
6. Apply power and activate the unit to verify that it is
operating properly.

Wiring
Wire in accordance with NFPA 72 and CAN/ULC-S524. Be
sure to observe the polarity of the terminals on the terminal
block as shown in the diagram.
Break the wire run at each terminal. Do not loop signaling
circuit field wires around terminals.
Note: Shielded wire is required only in environments with very
high electrical noise. When you use shielded cable, follow
these recommendations:
• Shield connection to and from the base must be
continuous and must be insulated from ground. Insulate
the shield using tape.
• For Class B wiring, there is no shield connection to ground
at the last device.
