CABLING REQUIREMENTS
The FAAST XT system provides a series of Euro style pluggable terminals,
located behind the left side door of the unit. Refer to Table 1 for the proper
electrical connections to the unit. Refer to Table 2 for a typical connection for
monitoring the FAAST XT system at a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).
TABLE 1. TERMINAL DESIGNATIONS
SYSTEM POWERING
The following procedure describes how to initially power up the FAAST XT system.
1. Unplug the unit’s power connector to the unit before turning on the
power.
2. Turn on the power.
3. Check the voltage at the connector. Make sure it is within the required
voltage range.
4. If the voltage is within the proper range, reconnect the power connec-
tor to the unit. Do not connect the SLC at this point in order to enable
configuration.
5. Connect a computer, with PipeIQ installed, to the unit using either the
USB connection on the front of the device, or the Ethernet port located
in the left side wiring door. (See the ‘Connecting to FAAST XT’ for
detailed connection instructions.)
6. Use the PipeIQ software to set up the unit configuration required for
the particular application.
7. The PC may now be disconnected unless a permanent networked con-
nection is desired.
8. Connect to SLC
9. Verify the system fan starts up and air begins to flow out of the ex-
haust port. The user interface will provide the device status.
10. The device will establish an airflow baseline during the first five min-
utes of operation. After five minutes, the airflow level display will
provide the true measured airflow status. The device will give visual
indication of the baselining period on the LCD screen.
