Kidde R-Series Annunciators are high-performance remote annunciators that provide status indication and common controls for compatible fire alarm control panels. This family of annunciators offers LCD or LED annunciation. Models are available with and without common controls.

There are three R-Series annunciator models, plus an LED-based expander. Up to two expanders can be connected to any annunciator. The expander includes 24 pairs of LEDs that extend the capabilities of any of the annunciators.

All annunciator models include status LEDs and an internal buzzer. Two models have an LCD text display, and one has 16 pairs of LEDs for zone annunciation. LCD models feature a large back-lit, four by twenty character per line, super-twist liquid crystal display.

R-Series annunciators and expanders are mounted on a standard 4-inch square electrical box, using the included mounting ring. They can also be surface mounted in locking steel enclosures. Three different enclosures are available.

A keyswitch and graphic annunciator interface is available for R-Series annunciator applications. The keyswitch enables or disables common controls. The graphic annunicator interface cards supports 32 LEDs and 16 switches on the graphic panel display.
