a digital communications circuit. It is an optional compo-
nent of the following systems.
• E3 Series® Expandable Emergency Evacuation System

The DACT-E3 sends digital signals over the telephone net-
work to a central station. This module can be located in the
main cabinet or remotely located via a local RS-485 serial
interface.
The DACT-E3 is compatible with digital alarm communica-
tor receivers (DACRs) that receive the following signaling
formats:
• SIA DC8
• 3+1 2300 Hz
• SIA DCS20
• 4+2 1400 Hz
• Ademco Contact ID

In addition to the DACT-E3 being compatible with digital
signaling formats, the DACT-E3 features numerous for-
mats for communication to a central station. As a digital
communicator, the DACT-E3 complies with FCC Part 8,
Telecommunication Standards for DC and AC Ringer
Equivalence.
Installation Instructions
The DACT-E3 is adaptable for installation in standard E3
Series and S3 Series System cabinets. Typically, the
DACT-E3 module mounts on standoffs on top of the left
side of the ILI-MB-E3/ILI95-MB-E3 or SLP (Smart Loop
Panel) module. Either unit can be easily connected to the
backbox or sub-assembly plate depending on the cabinet
