GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The RB3008 and RM3008 are 8-channel relay interface accessories for use with GEM-Series (except GEM-P800), MA3000, X250, and Signature SS-P and 5000-Series control panels. The RB3008 Relay Board is designed for installation inside an H1518 or CF1518 housing. The RM3008 Relay Module, a self-contained remote equivalent of the RB3008, may be used with all control panels, regardless of housing. It connects onto the remote panel bus along with such other accessories as keypads and zone expansion modules.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
Up to 8 RB3008/RM3008 units may be used.
Both versions provide 8 independent programmable drycontact relay outputs for controlling bells, door latches, lights, strobes and other similar devices. The panel controls the closure of each relay. Refer to installation instructions for the control panel in use for wiring requirements in

BOARD/MODULE ASSIGNMENT
The control panel must be able to identify the relay board or module. This is accomplished by the proper placement of jumpers on Jumper Block J1 (see Wiring Diagram on page 2 and Table 1, below).
INSTALLATION
RB3008.
To mount one Relay Board inside a large MA3000 or Signature 5500 housing (H1518 or CF1518), refer to Fig. 1 and proceed as follows:Caution:
Always remove ac and battery power before installing or removing the RB3008.1. Remove the motherboard from the enclosure by removing the two screws that secure the heat sink to the top of the enclosure (‘‘
A’’ in Fig. 1) and the two screws at the bottom of the board that secure it to the cross rail (‘‘B’’ in Fig. 1).2. Mount the RB3008 module at the middle of the enclosure, off the rear wall. Position the RB3008 with the terminal strip at the bottom so that the four mounting holes align with the raised standoffs in the enclosure. Secure the module using the four self-tapping screws supplied.
3. Replace the motherboard, securing it with the screws removed in Step 1. When fully assembled, the module will be behind the motherboard but mounted low enough so that its terminal strip is exposed.
