The Gamewell-FCI City Tie Expander (CTX-95) is a singlecircuit, reverse-polarity transmitter that provides the interface 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. Use the CTX-95 to
transmit the following:
•
supervisory signals and their faults on a separate city
tie from the main system
•
alarms to a central station to indicate a building alarm
or an unauthorized entrance to the building
The CTX-95 is either surface or flush mounted and has an
integral LED that lights at device activation.

Features
The CTX-95 is a programmable reverse polarity city tie circuit. The module contains the XP-95 protocol to communicate with the Gamewell-FCI 600 Series of analog
addressable control panels. The module provides the
power and supervision for the reverse polarity city tie. Programming CTX-95 selected circuits ensures that only their
alarms and troubles are transmitted to the central station.
Programming
To program the CTX-95, set a single DIP switch so that it is
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 using any of the following:
•
Fire Alarm Control Panel
•
Laptop computer
•
Control Panel Operator’s Display
•
Compatible with all Gamewell-FCI 600 Series analog
addressable FACPs
•
Connects to addressable SLC
•

•
Contains an over-voltage built-in protector
•
Has LED annunciates activation
•
Is fully supervised
•

Mounting
The CTX-95 mounts in a standard 4.688" (11.908 cm) electrical backbox. The CTX-95 should be mounted in an easily
accessible location so that you can identify the LED for
quick indication of proper connection and activation.
