DBX ZC-FIRE | Zone Controller with Fire Safety System Connection

DBX ZC-FIRE Zone Controller with Fire Safety System Connection

The Zone Controllers offer extended utility to the DriveRack and ZonePRO families. The nine Zone Controllers use analog DC voltage to provide logic control ranging from zone source selection, volume and muting, to program or scene selection and fire safety muting. Wired with readily available and affordable CAT5 cable with universally accepted RJ-45 connectors at distances up to 1000 ft, the ZC Zone Controllers offer simple yet elegant solutions to the contractor.

The ZC-FIRE is a dedicated fire safety interface for the ZonePRO products that allows selection of either system mute or scene selection upon being triggered by either a relay or control voltage from the fire safety system.

A ZC-4 can also be used as an interface to an alarm system. The ZC-4 Fire Alarm Integration Guide can be found in the Manuals/Documentation section of the ZC-4 product page.
