The Sigma A-CP is a range of conventional fire control panels with an optional built-in communicator. With two, four or eight initiating circuits all panels can be extensively configured via a somple front panel operated programming method. The low standby power requirements and cost effective small batteries allow the panel to be mounted in a discrete enclosure which is available in red or grey. A simple programming method using just 3 front panel buttons allows an extensive list of configuration options to be set and reviewed. Single board construction enables easy removal of all electronic parts by removing just two screws, and ample provision of cable entry knockouts simplify installation.
