TB3 TB2 TB1 Installation Input Circuits 2.3 Input Circuits The MS-2 has two IDCs (Initiating Device Circuits) and the MS-4 has four IDCs. Each 3 circuit is compatible with System Sensor’s I smoke detectors which generate a maintenance signal when the detector becomes dirty and a separate supervisory ‘freeze’ signal when ambient temperature falls below the detector rating. The maximum loop resistance limit for each IDC is 100 ohms. The field wiring for each zone is supervised for opens,
