SLC ADDRESSABLE DEVICES
Smoke Detector
The control panel processor sends the sensitivity settings to the detectors and polls the
detectors for their status. The detector determines normal, trouble and alarm conditions and
communicates the conditions to the control panel.
Variable Thresholds - The detectors can be set to operate in various pre-programmed profiles,
depending on the environment where the detectors are used.
Operator Alerts - The control panel can indicate a trouble event automatically on the
occurrence of a number of conditions of the detector. The supported conditions include:

Channel Active

Unconfigured Device

Device Type Mismatch

Device Communication Trouble

Address Invalid

Address Unspecified

Multiple Device Response

Parameter Error

Device Type Unknown

Fatal Fault

General Trouble

Dirty

Replace
Heat Detectors
Addressable heat sensing detectors may be intermixed on the circuit for locations where heat
sensing may be the most effective detection method. The heat detectors may be programmed
for rate of rise operation or fixed temperature.
Addressable Modules (Monitor and Control)
In addition to detectors, the circuit can communicate with addressable monitor and control
modules. Monitor modules allow remote contact closure initiating devices to generate event
conditions on the system. Control modules provide the system remote relay outputs or
notification appliance circuits
Manual Stations
Addressable manual stations may be intermixed on the circuit with proper response
programmed into the control panel.
Sounder Base
The ABHW-4B and ABHW-4S are the intelligent supervised audible based which provides 6
selectable tone patterns, 2 volume levels and 2 different power types for alarm.
The 6 tone patterns supported by the ABHW-4B and ABHW-4S are: Steady, Temporal 3,
Temporal 4, Temporal 4 low power, March time 120 and Canadian March time 30.
When the audible base ABHW-4B and ABHW-4S is used with Global ASA/FD182UL detectors,
it can be programmed to 2 output channels, and up to 6 tone patterns can be selected using
