AutroSafe Loop Driver Module – BSD-310/ BSD-311
Features
• Each Loop Driver Module allows connection of 127 loop
units
• Monitoring function for break or short-circuiting on the de-
tection loop
• Fail_Safe function ensures continuous communication on
the detection loop
• Easily plugged onto each other or onto other I/O modules
on a standard mounting rail
• Automatic addressing of the I/O module
• Designed to meet EN-54 and LPCB requirements and con-
forms to CE standards
Applications
The Loop Driver Module functions as a modem for data ex-
change between the control system and the detection loop.
The Loop Driver Module is easily plugged onto a mounting
rail inside the Fire Alarm Control Panel (BS-310/320) or the
Controller (BC-320). Indicators / Connections
1 detection loop for connection of 127 loop units can be con-
Front view when mounted on rail
nected to each Loop Driver Module. A loop unit is defined as
either a point (i.e. a detector or a manual call-point), I/O-unit
or an electronic sounder.
In addition to its main function, the I/O module provides two
important monitoring and security features. The loop resis-
tance on the detection loop is continuously monitored to reg- Screw

If a communication failure occurs, a Fail_Safe function is
automatically activated. A low-frequency modulation on the Screw
loop will be detected, and a separate control output (F/S) will terminal 1
then be activated.

Optionally there is a BSD-310/N version for use when there
are zone 2 detectors of type EXn on the loop. This is for
type /N detectors only. The I/O module has the following connections:
