The Simplex 4090-9001 is an Individual Addressable Module (IAM). It monitors normally open dry contact inputs. Specifically, it brings non-addressable contact devices onto a Simplex IDNet or MAPNET II addressable loop.
First, the module receives both power and data from a single two-wire IDNet or MAPNET II circuit. Then, it supervises the contact wiring out to an end-of-line resistor. As a result, the panel sees the exact device that changed state — not just a zone fault.
Common Uses for the Simplex 4090-9001
Typical applications include sprinkler waterflow switches and tamper switches. In addition, it can monitor conventional smoke or heat detector zones. Also, the IAM is the standard way to bring any contact-closure initiating device into a Simplex addressable system.
The 4090-9001 occupies one address per module. Therefore, you get device-level identification on alarm.
Key Features
- Monitors normally open, dry contact inputs
- Powered and supervised over a single IDNet or MAPNET II pair
- One IDNet/MAPNET address per module
- Class B supervised contact wiring
- Up to 500 ft (152 m) from IAM to end-of-line resistor
- Up to 400 ft when used with 2081-9044 overvoltage protectors
- Visible LED — flashes for communications, steady on alarm
- Screw terminals; thermoplastic enclosure minimizes dust ingress
- Mounts in a standard single-gang electrical box
Status Reporting
On IDNet, the 4090-9001 reports four-state status:
- NORMAL
- OPEN
- CURRENT-LIMITED
- SHORT
On MAPNET II, the module reports three states: NORMAL, OPEN, and ALARM.
Environmental Specifications
- Operating range: indoor, up to 158°F (70°C)
- Suitable for attic and similar high-temperature indoor spaces
- For outdoor or electrically noisy environments, pair with 2081-9044 overvoltage protectors
- For high-humidity sites where the LED is not required, see the encapsulated 4090-9051 version
Compatible Control Panels
For IDNet communications:
- Simplex 4008, 4010, 4010ES, 4100U, and 4100ES
