Input – Output Module

An Input – Output Module is a critical component in fire alarm and building management systems that facilitates communication between the central control panel and various external devices or systems. This module is responsible for handling input signals from detection devices (such as smoke detectors and manual call points) and output signals to control devices (such as alarms, sprinklers, or relays). It plays a key role in the integration and coordination of different elements within a fire safety system.

The Input – Output Module ensures that data from fire detection devices is accurately processed and that commands are effectively transmitted to response systems, enhancing the overall functionality and reliability of the fire alarm system.
