3.6 FACP Input
The APD8(F) has two FAI inputs, one which accepts a voltage input, and one that accepts a dry
contact input. Consult the appropriate section below for Terminal Connections for the type of
connection being used. See Appendix C for more information and specific wiring diagrams for the
FACP Input.

NOTE -
If the APD8(F) is being used with a power supply which has its own FAI Input, the supply’s
FAI input may be used to control the APD8(F) board. See Appendix D for more information.
3.7 FACP AUX Output
The FACP AUX output is a relay output which follows the FACP Input state. Typically, this output is
used to activate the FACP Input on additional APD8(F) boards. See Appendix C and Appendix D for
wiring details.
