Miscellaneous
Releasing Applications
Multiple zone initiating devices can be used for the same releasing hazard. Map zone initiating
devices to the same Releasing Zone. Factory Mutual and certain Local Authorities Having
Jurisdiction require using redundant wiring (NFPA 72 Style 6 or Style D) for initiating devices in
releasing applications.
B.4.2 Warning Sounders
Warning sounders connect to SLC output module circuits (refer to this panel’s installation manual).
Note the following:
• If selecting Cross Zones, a warning sounder only activates when two zones alarm.
• Warning sounders, unlike release solenoids, do not wait for a Delay Timer.
• If Coding Functions are required for warning sounders, use an SLC output module.
• The same releasing hazard can activate multiple NACs.
Instructions for activating warning sounders:
B.4.3 Auxiliary Control Functions
Instructions for using control functions:
B.4.4 ACS Annunciation
Releasing points may be mapped to annunciators using annunciator point programming (Refer to
“ACS Point Programming” on page 31).
To activate a sounder
Do this
When the Delay Timer starts, when the
releasing device activates, or both
Map the SLC to a releasing hazard zone (R0-R9).
Immediately when one of the initiating
devices activate
Map the SLC output to a separate zone (not R0-R9) that is also
mapped to all initiating devices of the hazard.
Function
Do this
A releasing application requires control
relays
Use control modules set for dry contact operation. Program the
control relays for different functions by following the instructions
in “To activate a sounder” above.
Providing control functions
Use an ACM-8R remote relay module mapped to the software
zones of the control panel.
