4-I-24D is a multipurpose electronic device designed for use with automated security systems. It is available in two versions: an 8-wire board that has connections for all eight panels, and a 4-wire board that only uses four of the most commonly used devices and interfaces. It is designed for controlling the operation of multiple devices, such as electronic keypads, door and window contacts, heat sensors, movement and smoke detectors, and panic buttons. It allows for easier setup and integration with other systems, such as alarm systems, using the same wiring. It also offers safety features, such as tamper-proof circuitry and surge protection, to ensure maximum protection of the system and its users.
