The Kidde ANSXM8 adds eight supervised output points to a Kidde intelligent fire alarm system. Each output is a solid-state normally-open dry contact rated at 30 mA max from 0-24V, giving the installer field-configurable flexibility without adding standalone relay hardware.
Built for the fire alarm installer
The eight outputs are individually programmable to follow message activations, paging functions, or control sequences - matching the panel's programming, not fighting it. Each output has a dedicated red LED for at-a-glance status verification during commissioning and troubleshooting. Field configurable as normally-open dry contacts or as separate voltage drive points, so one card covers multiple output strategies without swapping hardware.
Key features
- Eight supervised outputs on a single interface card - fewer cards, fewer panel slots consumed
- Solid-state dry contacts rated 30 mA max @ 0-24V for reliable switching without mechanical relay wear
- Field configurable as normally-open dry contacts or separate voltage drive points
- Individual LED indicators for each output point - instant visual status during commissioning
- Programmable per output to follow message, page, or control function activation
System requirements
Mounts inside a compatible Kidde intelligent fire alarm control panel. Consult the panel's installation manual for slot availability and wiring requirements.
