Installation Instructions
Model CSM-4
Controllable Signal Module

OPERATION

The Model CSM-4 Controllable Signal Module from Siemens Industry, Inc. has two fully supervised, programmable circuits. The outputs supply two Class B (Style Y) or Class A (Style Z) output circuits for the supervision and control of audible or visual notification devices such as horns, bells, strobes, etc.
Each notification circuit on a CSM-4 can be configured in one of four ways: (1) as a supervised connection to a Municipal Tie, (2) as a connection to a Leased Line remote monitoring System, (3) for releasing service per NFPA 13 and NFPA 2001, or (4) as a NAC.
Each output can be controlled automatically through the MXL program logic or manually by using the MXL keypad. Automatic control can also be time based. Each output
can be manually armed or disarmed through the MXL keypad. When any output is disarmed, the MXL LCD annunciator indicates which circuit or output, and the PARTIAL SYSTEM DISABLE LED lights until the circuit or output is armed again. The TROUBLE LED also lights.
The CSM-4 notification appliance circuits function in a Degrade mode, when the main MXL processor or the network communication link fails. Each circuit’s degrade mode of operation can be separately configured to respond to an alarm in any of the following ways:
OFF
ON CONTINUOUSLY
1 SECOND ON—1 SECOND OFF (Infinite repeat)
CSM-4 notification appliance circuit outputs can be set by using the CSG-M for any one of the following: (1) coded march time, (2) zone code, or (3) uniform Code 3 output.
The CSM-4 has two diagnostic and two user programmable LEDs (See Figure 1). In addition, each circuit is equipped with transient and noise suppression.

INSTALLATION

Remove all system power before installation, first battery and then AC. (To power up, first connect the AC and then the battery.)
The CSM-4 module plugs into one slot on the MOM-4  Expansion Module. There are four available slots for the CSM-4 on the MOM-4 (See Figure 2). Selecting which position on the MOM-4 to use for a CSM-4 determines which contacts are available: TB1, TB2, TB3, or TB4.
The CSM-4 is shipped with one card guide to add to the MOM-4 before the CSM-4 can be installed. Choose the position for the card guide according to which terminal block you wish to use.
To install the card guide, loosen the appropriate screw in the center area of the MOM-4 and set the card guide in place, making sure that the locating pin on the bottom of the card guide is in the hole on the MOM-4 (See Figure 4). Tighten the screw on the MOM-4 to secure the card guide in place.
Before Installing the CSM-4 Signal Module
(Refer to Figure 3.) Before installing the CSM-4 in the MOM-4, you must set the Network address, configure each circuit according to the CSG-M program [as audibles (NACs), municipal tie, leased line, or releasing service (NFPA 13 and NFPA 2001)], and set the degrade modes (trouble and alarm) as follows:
Note: To open a dipswitch, press down on the side of the dipswitch marked OPEN.
To close a dipswitch, press down on the side of the dipswitch opposite the side marked OPEN.
To open a slide switch, push the slide to the side opposite the side marked ON.
To close a slide switch, push the slide to the side marked ON. Before Installing the CSM-4

1. Set the Network Address
   The Network address is set on switch S1 (See Figure 1). See the CSG-M printout for the proper address. Use Table 1 to set the switches.
2. Set the Mode of Operation for Each Circuit
   The CSM-4 has one programming slide switch and one jumper for each of its two circuits. (See slide switches S3 and S4 and jumpers G1 and G2 on the board.) Setting these slide switches and jumpers allows the selection of four possible modes of operation. These modes correspond with NFPA standards 72 Local (notification appliance circuit), Municipal Tie (municipal tie), Remote Station (leased line), and NFPA 13 and NFPA 2001 (releasing service).
   Each circuit on the CSM-4 can be set independently for the type of operation desired. Table 2 shows how to set the switches and jumpers for circuits 1 and 2. The CSG-M printout shows the mode for each circuit.
3. Set the Degrade Modes of Operation
   There are two sources of degrade activation, the degrade alarm bus and the degrade trouble bus. These two buses become active ONLY when the MXL communication network fails. Switch S2 on the CSM-4 sets the degrade mode of operation for each circuit. Each circuit operates independently in the degrade mode. Switch S2, positions SW1 and SW2, determine the degrade mode of operation when the trouble bus activates. S2, positions SW3-SW6, determines the degrade mode of operation when the alarm bus activates.

Degrade Trouble Activation
The degrade trouble bus may ONLY be used when the circuit is used as a leased line trouble notification circuit (NFPA 72 Remote Station). (See Figure 3.) When enabled, this trouble degrade mode ensures that a trouble is transmitted to the receiving station even when the MXL communication network fails.
Using the CSG-M printout, determine if either of the circuits is configured as a leased line trouble. Table 3 shows how to set S2 (SW1 and SW2) to enable the degrade trouble activation for the desired circuit.
Degrade Alarm Activation
Each circuit on the CSM-4 can be set with switch S2, positions SW3-SW6, to determine when the degrade alarm bus activates. (See Figure 3). There are three alarm degrade modes (Table 4). Each circuit can be set independently from the other. Determine which type of degrade mode you want for each circuit and set switch  S2 (SW3-SW6) as shown in Table 4.
Releasing Service per NFPA 13 and NFPA 2001 
No degrade activation is allowed. Set all switch positions on switch S2 to OFF (open).
