FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular System
1. The FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular system requires a Siemens model
RPM module to interface to a Centronics parallel printer. When an RPM is used in conjunction with PAL-1,
the FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular system provides a supervised
logging printer meeting the requirements of an NFPA 72 Proprietary or UL1076 Security system. The printer
is supervised for paper out, AC loss, and printer parallel cable removal.
2. Refer to the RPM Installation Instructions, P/N 315-033270, for more details on connecting and
programming a RPM module.
