F4-RMAX

F4 Remote LED Mimic / Aux Relay Module

Compatibility
The F4-RMAX is compatible with F4 fire alarm panels fitted with version 5.02 or later firmware, and
version 5.05 or later F4 master boards.

The F4-RMAX board may be fitted in an F4 panel that also has an F4 Type 5 Sound Control Board,
provided the panel master board is version 5.05 or later.

Note: Pertronic Industries recommend that the RMAX board should be used with the standard
(flashing) mimic F100PDB12, in preference to the steady indication (F100PDB12S).


Dip Switch Settings
SW1 Not Used
SW2 Not Used
SW3 Type 5 Global Z1
SW4 LED Mimic Enable

If the panel is fitted with a F4 Type 5 Sound Control Board, then with RMAX connected
and SW3 OFF, zones 1, 2, 3 and 4 function as standard zones.
