The Alarm Relay Card mounts on, and is driven by, the SPS. It has 3 relays, each
providing one set of voltage-free contacts. It is fitted to the basic 4100U-S1 as standard.
The relays are able to be configured under custom control, but the default operation is for
system status, i.e. Fault (Trouble), Isolate (Supervisory), and Alarm, respectively. These
are commonly used to drive the Brigade signalling device (ASE or PPU/AIU). See the
next section for more details about Brigade Devices.
