The Honeywell Farenhyt RA-1000 / RA-1000R Remote Annunciator is an advanced remote display and control device designed to provide convenient access to essential fire alarm system information and functions from a location away from the main fire alarm control panel. It extends system visibility and control to additional areas of a facility, allowing authorized personnel to quickly monitor system conditions and respond to events without having to access the primary control panel.
The annunciator features a clear 4-line LCD display with 20 characters per line, providing detailed information about alarms, supervisory conditions, troubles, and other system events. Its interface is designed to correspond closely with the annunciator built into compatible Farenhyt control panels, helping provide a consistent and familiar operating experience throughout the fire alarm system.
In addition to the LCD display, the RA-1000 / RA-1000R incorporates LED status indicators and dedicated control keys that allow operators to view system conditions and perform essential fire alarm functions. This combination of visual indicators, display information, and accessible controls helps simplify system operation, event identification, and response during both normal operation and emergency conditions.
Communication between the remote annunciator and the fire alarm system is provided through the RS-485 System Bus, enabling reliable data communication with compatible Farenhyt equipment. The unit operates at 24 VDC, with a low current consumption of approximately 20 mA in standby and 25 mA in alarm, supporting efficient integration into the overall fire alarm system.
The RA-1000 series is compatible with a range of Honeywell Farenhyt fire alarm control panels, including the IFP-2100/ECS, IFP-1000/ECS, IFP-300/ECS, IFP-100/ECS, IFP-75, and IFP-50 systems. This broad compatibility makes the annunciator suitable for a variety of addressable fire alarm installations, from smaller facilities to larger and more complex buildings requiring multiple monitoring locations.
The series is available in two enclosure options: the RA-1000 with a gray enclosure and the RA-1000R with a red enclosure. Both versions provide the same essential remote annunciation functionality, allowing the appropriate enclosure style to be selected according to installation or project requirements.
With its remote system monitoring, 4-line LCD display, LED status indication, integrated control functions, RS-485 communication, low power consumption, and broad Farenhyt system compatibility, the Honeywell Farenhyt RA-1000 / RA-1000R Remote Annunciator provides a dependable solution for expanding fire alarm monitoring and control capabilities in commercial, industrial, institutional, and other protected facilities.
