Section 1: Product Description
The GF505 is a five zone FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) and the GF510 is a ten zone FACP. The information in this manual refers to
both the GF505 and GF510 unless otherwise specified. The combination control and digital communicator panels provide reliable fire
signaling protection for small to medium sized commercial, industrial and institutional buildings. The FACP is compatible with System
Sensor’s i
3
detectors which are conventional smoke detectors that can transmit a maintenance trouble signal to the FACP indicating the
need for cleaning and a supervisory ‘freeze’ signal when the ambient temperature falls below the detector rating of approximately 45
o
F
(refer to System Sensor i
3
Installation and Maintenance Instructions). In addition, the control panel is compatible with conventional input
devices such as two-wire smoke detectors, four-wire smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices, tamper switches and other nor-
mally-open contact devices. Refer to the Gamewell-FCI Device Compatibility Document for a complete listing of compatible devices.
Outputs include four NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits), three programmable Form-C relays (factory programmed for Alarm,
Trouble and Supervisory) and 24 VDC special application resettable and nonresettable power outputs. The FACP supervises all wiring,
AC voltage, battery level and telephone line integrity. Available accessories include local and remote upload/download software, remote
annunciators and reverse polarity/city box transmitter.
The integral DACT transmits system status (alarms, troubles, AC loss, etc.) to a Central Station via the public switched telephone net-
work. It also allows remote programming or interrogation of the control panel using the PS-Tools Upload/Download utility via the public
switched telephone network. Local programming interrogation is also possible using the PS-Tools and the USB port on the FACP. Any
personal computer with Windows
®
XP or newer, compatible modem with a speed of 2400 baud and PS-Tools may serve as a Service
Terminal. This allows download of the entire program or upload of the entire program, history file, walktest data and current status.
Activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire alarm initiating device will activate audible and visual signaling
devices, illuminate an indicating LED, display alarm information on the panel’s LCD, sound the piezo sounder at the FACP, activate the
FACP alarm relay and operate an optional module used to notify a remote station or initiate an auxiliary control function.
