A custom cable needs to be fabricated to connect a PRN-5 Printer, Keltron Printer or a CRT-2
Monitor to the system. Length of the cable will vary with each installation, but should not exceed a
maximum length of 50 feet (15.24 meters). Construct cable as follows:
3512YHUYLHZ
Connected to the Control Panel via an EIA-232 interface the PRN-5 prints a copy of all status
changes within the control panel and time-stamps the printout with current time of day and date.
Provides 80 columns of data on standard 9" by 11" tractor-feed paper.

Remote printers require a 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz primary power source. If required for the fire alarm
system configuration (for example, a Proprietary Fire Alarm System), a remote printer requires a
secondary power source (battery backup). Because a secondary power source is not provided, use a
separate Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) that is UL-listed for Fire Protective Signaling.
Connect the remote printer to the CPU-600 as follows:
