The EVOLVE-24L12S adds dedicated annunciation and operator control to Kidde Commercial EVOLVE fire alarm systems without changing the core panel layout. Twenty-four programmable LEDs and twelve programmable switches give the installer a purpose-built control point for expanded system visibility and hands-on response capability at remote locations throughout the facility.

Built for the commercial fire alarm installer

This module integrates directly into the EVOLVE system architecture, maintaining consistent supervision and communication across the platform. It handles site-specific annunciation layouts and operator control requirements that exceed the main panel's built-in capacity - a common need in larger commercial facilities, healthcare environments, and multi-building campuses where operators need local status and control without walking to the main FACP.

Key features

  • 24 programmable LEDs: each LED maps to a specific zone, device, or system condition as defined during programming
  • 12 programmable switches: dedicated physical controls for operator actions like acknowledge, silence, reset, or custom functions
  • Native EVOLVE integration: plugs into the EVOLVE system bus with consistent supervision and response behavior
  • Flexible site layouts: mount where operators need visibility without relocating or upsizing the main panel
  • Single-source accessory: eliminates the need for third-party annunciation hardware on EVOLVE jobs

System requirements

Requires a Kidde Commercial EVOLVE Series fire alarm control panel. The module connects to the panel's communication bus and is programmed through the panel's configuration interface.
