This manual contains information for installing and testing the AFP-400 Fire
Alarm Control Panel and fire alarm system components. For further infor-
mation on the AFP-400, refer to the following:
The AFP-400 is a modular, intelligent fire alarm control panel (FACP) with
an extensive list of powerful features. The CPU module, power supply
module, and cabinet combine to create a complete fire control system for
most applications. Optional modules mount to the chassis to provide
additional output circuits.
AFP-4OO features and options that affect installation include the following:
Capacity for installing up to 396 intelligent devices (198 analog detectors
and 198 monitor/control modules).
Four NAC (bell) circuits standard, expandable to 68 total (Class A or B).
EIA-485 connections for wiring ACS annunciators (including LDM custom
graphic annunciators).
Optional AFP-400 modules include:
4XTM transmitter
UDACT Universal Digital Alarm Communicator/Transmitter
ACM-8R remote relay module to increase point capacity
Audio and voice components
Auto-Program (learn mode) reduces installation time.
Five cabinet options (CAB-400A, CAB-3A, CAB-3B, CAB-3C, or CAB-3D)
for enclosing system components.
Optional LCD-80, for monitoring the system, up to 6000 feet from panel.
The AFP-400 system provides 6.0 amps usable output power (standard).
System expansion must comply with:
1) The physical limitations of the cabinet configuration.
2) The electrical limitations of the system power supply.
3) The capacity of the Secondary Power Source (standby batteries).
Refer to System Components, descriptions of the various optional
