The K-RLCD-C-2 is a remote LCD annunciator with common controls for Kidde EVOLVE-ML panels (also compatible with FX64, FX1000, VS1, VS4, and VM systems). A large backlit 4x20 character display gives text-level event detail at a remote location, and the built-in common controls (Ack/Silence, Reset, Signal Silence, Drill, Lamp Test) let staff manage an alarm without walking back to the main FACP.
Built for the commercial fire installer
No programming required at the annunciator itself Ć¢ā¬ā set the network address with the on-board DIP switches and the unit pulls everything else from the panel. RS-485 wiring supports Class B, Redundant Class B, or Class A, so the annunciator drops into whatever riser topology the job already uses. It mounts to a standard 4-inch square electrical box, or into an optional locking steel enclosure for surface-mount or public-area installs, and up to two 24-pair LED expanders can be added for extra zone annunciation.
