Which fire alarm control panels and communication networks support the Morley-IAS ZXr-A active repeater?

Answer:
The ZXr-A is compatible with all Morley-IAS intelligent multi-protocol fire alarm control panels (including the ZX series). Up to 31 active repeaters can connect to a panel using its RS485 peripheral data port with field wiring up to 2.5 mm².

The Honeywell Morley-IAS ZXr-A active repeater integrates directly with Morley-IAS networked fire alarm architectures:

  • Panel Compatibility: Operates with all Morley-IAS intelligent multi-protocol fire alarm control panels, including ZX series control panels.
  • Bus Connection: Communicates via the panel's dedicated RS485 peripheral data port.
  • Network Capacity: Up to 31 active repeaters can be connected along a single peripheral data port loop.
  • Line Integrity Supervision: The main ZX fire alarm control panel continuously supervises the RS485 link to the repeater, reporting cabling faults and line integrity losses on both the repeater and the central panel.
  • Wiring Compatibility: Terminal blocks accommodate fire-rated cabling with cross-sectional areas up to 2.5 mm².
