NOTES

:

1. Recommended wire sizes:

18 AWG minimum, 14 AWG maximum

2. Wire larger than 14 AWG can damage the connector.
3.

When using shielded cable without metal raceway or with
nonmetallic raceway,

 the shields should be terminated at the device

ground terminal. If the device box is already grounded by another
means, such as being mounted to a grounded structure, the wire
shields should be continuous and must be grounded solely at the point
of origin; for example, at the control panel.

4.

When using shielded cable with metal raceway, 

the wiring shields

shall be continuous and grounded solely at the point of origin. The
device ground terminal shall be connected to the grounded device
box.

5.

When using metal raceway without shielded cable,

 connect the

device ground terminal to the grounded device box.

6. Metal raceway should be thoroughly grounded throughout the system.
7. The 8700-S and 8700-D draw 1mA from the addressable device

circuit.

8. The 8700-S and 8700-D are polarity insensitive devices. Line 1 and

Line 2 can be either line of the loop.

INSTALLATION

Distribute the manual station boxes throughout the protected area so that they
are unobstructed, readily accessible, and located in the normal exit path. Place the manual station accord-
ing to the regulations of the authorities having jurisdiction.

Surface Mounting

Mount the backplate to a Faraday Model 8864 Backbox as shown in Figure 4.

Flush Mounting

Mount the backplate to a user supplied single gang switchbox.

Do not overtighten the screws. Overtightening may distort the backplate.
