• Automatic device mapping
Signature modules transmit information to the loop controller
regarding their circuit locations with respect to other Signature
devices on the wire loop.
• Electronic addressing
Programmable addresses are downloaded from the loop con-
troller, a PC, or the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool;
there are no switches or dials to set.
• Intelligent device with microprocessor
All decisions are made at the module to allow lower com-
munication speed with substantially improved control panel
response time and less sensitivity to line noise and loop wiring
properties; twisted or shielded wire is not required.

wire size.
The GSA-MCC1S is part of the UIO family of plug-in Signature
Series modules. It functions identically to the GSA-CC1S, but
takes advantage of the modular flexibility and easy installation that
characterize all UIO modules. Two- and six-module UIO mother-
boards are available. These can accommodate individual risers for
each on-board module, or risers that are shared by any combina-
tion of its UIO modules. All wiring connections are made to termi-
nal blocks on the motherboard. UIO assemblies may be mounted
in Edwards enclosures.

Personality Codes
The operation of the GSA-CC1S is determined by their sub-type
code or “Personality Code”. The code is selected by the installer GSA-MCC1S: mount the UIOxR motherboard inside a suitable
