IFI-WS Installation and Operation Manual – P/N LS10050-000JC-E:A 12/11/2014

Installation Precautions

Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:

WARNING - Several different sources of power can be
connected to the fire alarm control panel.

Disconnect all

sources of power before servicing. The control unit and asso-
ciated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or insert-
ing cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is
energized. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this
unit until this manual is read and understood.

CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test after Software
Changes.

To ensure proper system operation, this product

must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 after any pro-
gramming operation or change in site-specific software. Reac-
ceptance testing is required after any change, addition or
deletion of system components, or after any modification,
repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.

All components, circuits, system operations, or software func-
tions known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested.
In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadver-
tently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not
directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50
devices, must also be tested and proper system operation ver-
ified.

This system

meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0°C to

49°C (32°F to 120°F) and at a relative humidity 93% ± 2% RH
(non-condensing) at 32°C ± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F). However, the
useful life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic
components may be adversely affected by extreme tempera-
ture ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that
this system and all peripherals be installed in an environment
with a nominal room temperature of 15-27° C/60-80° F.

Verify that wire sizes are adequate

for all initiating and indicat-

ing device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a
10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices

this system may oper-

ate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning-
induced transients.  Although no system is completely immune
from lightning transients and interferences, proper grounding
will reduce susceptibility.  Overhead or outside aerial wiring is
not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to
nearby lightning strikes.  Consult with the Technical Services if
any problems are anticipated or encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries

prior to removing or

inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.

Remove all electronic assemblies

prior to any drilling, filing,

reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make
all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifi-
cations, verify that they will not interfere with battery, trans-
former, and printed circuit board location.

Do not tighten screw terminals

more than 9 in-lbs. Over-tight-

ening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal con-
tact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.

Though designed to last many years,

system components

can fail at any time.  This system contains static-sensitive
components.  Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap
before handling any circuits so that static charges are removed
from the body.  Use static-suppressive packaging to protect
electronic assemblies removed from the unit.

Follow the instructions

in the installation, operating, and pro-

gramming manuals. These instructions must be followed to
avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment.
FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper installation
by authorized personnel.

FCC Warning

WARNING:

This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual may
cause interference to radio communications. It has been
tested and found to comply with the limits for class A com-
puting devices pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC
Rules, which is designed to provide reasonable protection
against such interference when devices are operated in a
commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause interference, in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at
his or her own expense.

Canadian Requirements

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits
for radiation noise emissions from digital apparatus set
out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications.

Le present appareil numerique n'emet pas de bruits radio-
electriques depassant les limites applicables aux appar-
eils numeriques de la classe A prescrites dans le
Reglement sur le brouillage radioelectrique edicte par le
ministere des Communications du Canada.
