Programming the NAC Card
Overview
The Z-28 FACP provides four Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs), each of which
connects one or more Notification Appliances (horns, strobes, bells, etc.) to the Z-28.
The PC Programmer represents the Z-28’s standard, hardwired NACs as the NAC card. (Note:
AUTOPULSE Z-28 Ext SLCnet NACs are grouped and programmed under the SLCnet card.)
Opening the NAC card allows you to view and program the device type, point type, and
custom label of the standard Notification Appliances.
The position of the NAC card within the Active Cards List is shown below.

2.
Double click on the NAC’s existing device type. A list box appears, containing the
following choices:
•
SIGA - Class A NAC. NAC contains multiple signal paths, allowing circuit operation
to continue if a single open circuit occurs. This option requires installation of a Class
A NAC adapter card.
