INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS:
Check that you have all the equipment you need to make the installation. Follow the field wiring diagrams
and installation notes in this manual.
Install the equipment in a clean, dry environment (minimal dust). Avoid installing equipment where vibrations
will occur.
Remove all electronic assemblies prior to drilling, filing, reaming, or punching the enclosure. When possible,
make all cable entries from the sides, being careful to separate the power limited conductors from the
non-power limited conductors. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery,
transformer and printed circuit board location.
Do not over-tighten screw terminals. Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal
contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
Disconnect all sources of power before servicing, removing, or inserting any circuit boards. Control unit and
associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables
while the unit is energized.
WIRING CONSIDERATIONS:
This fire alarm control panel contains power limited circuits. You cannot connect external sources of power
to these circuits without invalidating their approval.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating device and notification appliance circuits. Most devices
cannot tolerate more than a 10% drop from the specified device voltage.
The installer must make sure that the wiring and devices installed in the system meet the current National
Electrical Code, NFPA 70, and all applicable state and local building code requirements.
Use the conductor size and type required by local codes. (see NFPA 70, Article 760). Wiring resistance must
not be more than that shown on the field wiring diagrams.
To reduce errors and help in servicing the system, all conductors should be tagged or otherwise coded and
logged at installation to identify circuit assignment and polarity. If the conductors are logged with a code, keep
the log that explains the code with the manual, so that it is available to other people working on the panel.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or be damaged when subjected
to lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely immune to lightning transients and interfer-
ence, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. We do not recommend the use of overhead or outside aerial
wiring due to the increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the FCI Technical Support
Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
To prevent the spread of fire, use proper patching materials to areas where system wiring passes through
fire-rated walls or floors.
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to this fire alarm control panel. Disconnect
all sources of power before servicing. The control panel and associated equipment may be damaged by
removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the panel is energized. Failure to do
so can damage circuits. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this control panel until this manual is read
and understood.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:
The equipment was tested according to EC directive 89/336/EEC for Class A equipment and was verified
to the limits and methods of EN 55022.
CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test: To ensure proper system operation, this product must be tested in
accordance with NFPA 1996, Chapter 7 after any change, addition or deletion of product components, or after
any repair to system wiring. All components, circuits, or system operations known to be affected by a change
must be 100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least 10%
of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, should also be
tested and proper system operation verified.
DO NOT RUN LINE VOLTAGE IN THE SAME RACEWAYS AS FIRE ALARM CONDUCTORS.
WHEN APPLYING POWER TO THIS FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL, CONNECT THE
AC LINE VOLTAGE FIRST, THEN CONNECT THE BATTERIES.
