Abstract (en)

[origin: US4404548A] In a fire alarm system individual fire alarms are connected in series by reporting lines with a central signal station. In order to be able to connect a greater number of fire alarms with the individual reporting or signaling lines and/or in order to be able to dispatch an increased amount of current through the reporting lines, the reporting or signaling lines from the last fire alarm of a line are returned back to the central signal station in the form of a ring circuit or loop. Upon the absence of signals at a reporting line an interrogation device is reversed, so that there can be ensured that in the event of a line disturbance or breakdown of a fire alarm the remainder of the fire alarms still can be utilized for giving a signal. The individual fire alarms are structured such that during assembly the inputs and outputs can be mutually interchanged.
