CTX-95
Description
The Gamewell-FCI City Tie Expander (CTX-95) is a single-
circuit, reverse-polarity transmitter that provides the inter-
face between the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) and a
municipal system or central station. The CTX-95 connects
to the panel via a three-wire SLC circuit. The most common
usage is transmitting supervisory signals and their faults on
a separate city tie from the main system, and to transmit
alarms to a central station to indicate building alarm or
arrival entrance to building.
The CTX-95 is either surface or flush mounted and has an
integral LED that lights at device activation.
Operation
The CTX-95 is a programmable reverse polarity city tie cir-
cuit. The module contains the XP-95 protocol to communi-
cate with the Gamewell-FCI 600 Series of analog
addressable control panels. The module provides the
power and supervision for the reverse polarity city tie. Pro-
gramming CTX-95 selected circuits insures that only their
alarms and troubles are transmitted to the central station.
Programming
The CTX-95 is programmed by setting a single DIP switch
easily accessible on the device’s printed circuit board. The
DIP switch is used to set the address of the CTX-95. All
other programming is accomplished at the Fire Alarm Con-
trol Panel, either through a laptop computer or through the
Control Panel Operator’s Display.
Mounting
The CTX-95 mounts in a standard 4.688" (11.908 cm) electri-
cal backbox. The CTX-95 should be mounted in an easily
accessible location so that the LED may be seen for quick
indication of proper connection and activation.
