KC-FX-SLC1 KIDDE FIRE ALARM SIGNALLING LINE CIRCUIT (SLC) MODULE

Description

The FX-SLC1 KIDDE FIRE ALARM SIGNALLING LINE CIRCUIT (SLC) MODULE is an addressable communication module that provides a supervised signaling line connection on Kidde FX-series fire alarm control panels. It allows addressable field devices — such as detectors and input modules — to report status and events over a single supervised loop back to the main panel. The FX-SLC1 ensures reliable device communication with fault detection and isolation support, helping maintain system integrity even if a wiring problem occurs.
