3 .  Connect two (2) 12VDC batteries wired in series to terminals marked [– BAT +] (Fig. 2, pg. 5) .
 

Note: If batteries being used in your installation do not fit into the FireSwitch unit, it is required to install 

 

a separate enclosure UL Listed for appropriate application . Separate battery enclosure is required to have 

 

50 cubic inches of additional open space . All wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National 

 

Electrical Code NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI/Canadian Electrical Code/CAN/ULC-S524/ULC-S527/

 

ULC-S537 and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction . Battery circuits are not Power-

 

Limited provide 0 .25” spacing from Power-Limited circuits use separate knockout . If additional battery 

 

enclosure is required it must be UL Listed for the application and mounted within 5’ of the FireSwitch 

 

enclosure in the same room, minimum 12 AWG wire in appropriate conduit is required for connection . 

 

When using conduit, make sure it is installed in a matter where it can not turn .

4 .  To trigger NAC outputs via the FACP signaling circuit(s) (polarity reversed) set INP1 and INP2 DIP 
 

switches to the OFF position . To trigger NAC outputs via the FACP dry relay contact (normally closed NC) 

 

set INP1and INP2 DIP switches to the ON position (Fig. 2a, pg. 5).

5 .  Determine the functionality of outputs [OUT1] through [OUT8] . Outputs can be programmed as Class “A” 
 

NACs, Class “B” NACs, Aux . power output(s) with battery backup or Aux . power output(s) without 

 

battery backup .

 

Note: Not all devices can use the sync feature . 

 

Be sure to check Appendix A to ensure the device you havechosen will work with this feature .

 

Note: When programming outputs for Aux . power it will not be affected by the FACP trigger input .

 

(Refer to Fig. 4, pg. 8 for Wiring, for Programming refer to pg. 9) .
