FALCO Input Board Module INP-RLY-08 – 8 Digital Inputs

The FALCO Input Board Module (INP-RLY-08) is an eight-channel digital input expansion board for compatible alarm and security access control systems. It connects alarm sensors and dry-contact devices to a central controller. As a result, operators can monitor multiple security inputs through one system.

Each module provides eight digital inputs. In addition, supported FALCO controllers can connect up to four modules for a total of 32 monitored inputs.

Key Features and Benefits

• 8 Digital Inputs: Connects up to eight compatible alarm input devices per module.
• Expandable to 32 Inputs: Supports four modules per compatible controller.
• NO/NC Dry Contact Support: Works with normally open or normally closed contact signals.
• PIR Sensor Compatibility: Connects compatible passive infrared motion detectors.
• Magnetic Contact Monitoring: Detects supported door and window contact signals.
• Individual LED Indicators: Displays the status of each input channel.
• Screw Terminal Connections: Makes field wiring and maintenance more convenient.
• Flexible Mounting: Supports DIN rail or wall installation.

How Does the FALCO Input Board Module Work?

First, an installer connects compatible alarm sensors to the module’s input terminals.

Next, each device sends its contact status to the input board. The module then communicates these signals to the connected FALCO controller.

The controller processes the inputs according to the configured security rules. For example, it may record a door contact event or trigger a programmed alarm response.

Therefore, installers can monitor more devices without assigning every sensor to a separate controller input.

However, the available actions depend on controller compatibility and system programming.

Common Applications

The FALCO Input Board Module suits security projects that require multiple monitoring points.

• Corporate Offices: Monitor selected doors, windows, and motion detectors.
• Warehouses: Connect intrusion sensors across storage areas.
• Commercial Buildings: Monitor security contacts at restricted entrances.
• Factories: Expand monitoring points in designated security zones.
• Industrial Facilities: Connect compatible alarm devices to a central controller.
• Security Control Rooms: Collect input signals from connected sensors for monitoring.

FALCO Controller and Alarm Sensor Integration

The INP-RLY-08 supports compatible dry-contact devices, including PIR sensors and magnetic door contacts.

For example, installers can connect sensors to the board and configure the controller to respond to specific events.

However, the module is an input expansion board. It does not directly control electric locks, sirens, or other powered outputs.

For those functions, installers may need a compatible output module or relay controller.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the FALCO Input Board Module?

The FALCO INP-RLY-08 is an eight-channel digital input expansion board. It connects compatible alarm sensors to a supported FALCO security controller.

How many devices can one input board support?

Each module has eight digital inputs. Therefore, it can monitor up to eight suitable input circuits when correctly configured.

Can I connect multiple input boards to one controller?

Yes. Supported FALCO controllers can connect up to four input modules. This provides a maximum of 32 digital inputs.

Can the module connect to PIR motion detectors?

Yes. It supports compatible PIR sensors with dry-contact alarm outputs. However, the sensor must receive power according to its own requirements.

Can the board monitor magnetic door contacts?

Yes. It accepts compatible normally open or normally closed contact signals from magnetic door contacts.

Can the FALCO Input Board Module directly activate a siren or electric lock?

No. The module receives input signals. A suitable controller, output module, or relay is required to operate external equipment.

Does the input board work with every FALCO controller?

Not necessarily. Compatibility depends on the controller model, expansion interface, and system configuration. Therefore, confirm compatibility before ordering.
