Figure 1-4 shows the AutoPulse Z-10’s major components. As shown in the figure, terminals for
Releasing Appliance Circuits (RACs), Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs), Initiating Device
Circuits (IDCs), and Special Purpose Monitors (SPMs) are located along the top of the panel.
Class A adapters (if used) install beneath these terminals. Refer to Chapter 3 for specific
information on wiring the AutoPulse Z-10.

Component Description
Power Supply
24 VDC @ 3 A (filtered, full wave rectified) output, all circuits. Includes temperature
compensated battery charger adequate to recharge batteries required for 24-hour
standby/10 minute alarm. Batteries recharge within 24 hours.
Input voltage: 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 2A maximum or 220/230/240 VAC 50/60 Hz, 1A maximum.
Initiating Device Circuit
(IDC)
Four Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs), each supporting up to 30 smoke detectors. See
“Wiring Initiating Device Circuits” in Chapter 3 of this manual for a list of compatible devices.
50
Ω wiring limit. Each IDC is supervised for ground faults and open circuit faults. (Single
hazard, agent release applications use IDCs 3 and 4 for connecting a pressure switch and
supervisory device. Combination Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge applications (10-11)
use IDCs 3 and 4 for waterflow and supervisory.) The panel interprets a current-limited or
short circuit on an initiating device as an alarm. Alarms latch until cleared and reset.
