Aico Ei413 RadioLINK Panel Interface Module for Wireless Fire & Security Alarm Integration

The Aico Ei413 RadioLINK Panel Interface Module seamlessly connects Aico's wireless smoke, heat, and CO alarms with traditional wired Fire and Security Alarm Panels, providing comprehensive system integration.

Note: Due to the electronic component and sensor nature of this product, it is non-returnable for an "unwanted" refund.

The Aico Ei413 is an essential component for integrating the convenience and flexibility of Aico's wireless RadioLINK alarm system with existing or new wired Fire and Security Alarm Panels.

This advanced interface module acts as a translator, allowing battery-powered, wirelessly interconnected smoke, heat, and Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms to communicate critical status information to a main control panel. By decoding "Fire," "CO," and "Fault" signals from RadioLINK devices, the Ei413 activates relevant onboard volt-free relay contacts, which are then wired directly to the panel's input contacts for appropriate action. This bridge enhances safety by creating a unified system.

Designed for simplicity and robust performance, the Ei413 module is a standalone unit powered by a 12-24V DC supply from the alarm or security panel.

It maintains the integrity of the system through a unique "house coding" feature, ensuring secure and dedicated communication between the module and all house-coded RadioLINK devices. The module also features a blue LED for visual indication of the house coding process and RF transmissions, streamlining installation and testing.

A key benefit of the Ei413 is its bidirectional functionality. Not only does it send alarm and fault signals to the panel, but it also allows the wired panel to trigger all wirelessly interconnected smoke and CO alarms to sound.

This provides maximum flexibility for site-wide alarms or testing procedures.

Furthermore, the module acts as an RF repeater, extending the range and boosting the reliability of the wireless RadioLINK network, making it suitable for larger or more challenging installations. The unit is backed by a 5-year guarantee, demonstrating Aico's confidence in its quality and reliability.

How the Aico Ei413 Integrates with Wired Fire/Security Panels

• The Aico Ei413 RadioLINK Panel Interface Module translates wireless alarm events into signals that your traditional wired panel can understand, ensuring rapid and compliant system response.
• Fire Signal Transmission: When the Ei413 receives a wireless Fire or CO alarm signal from a RadioLINK device, it instantly activates its designated relay, creating a short circuit across the Detector Zone Input on your panel. This action simulates the trigger of a wired detector, resulting in an immediate Fire Indication on the control panel. (Note: Consult your panel manufacturer's manual, as a current-limiting resistor may be required for this input.)
• Fault Signal Transmission: For non-critical events, such as a low battery or a chamber contamination fault from a RadioLINK device, the Ei413 relay will open circuit the connection to the Detector Zone Input. This change in circuit state generates a distinct Fault Indication on the control panel, allowing you to quickly identify and address maintenance issues within the wireless system.
• Signal Priority: The module prioritizes life safety: a Fire signal will always override a Fault signal. If a low battery fault is active but a Fire alarm is subsequently received, the Ei413 ensures the panel receives and acts on the critical Fire alarm signal immediately.
• This seamless operation guarantees that your existing wired system gains the full benefits and coverage of Aico's wireless safety devices.
