Section 1: Introduction
1.1 About This Manual
This document covers the installation and wiring of various Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) devices,
when used with the following Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACPs):
•
IFC-200
•
IFC-300/IFC-400
•
IFC-1010/IFC-2020
•
IFC-640/E, IFC2-640/E, IFC-320/E/C
•
IFC-3030/IFC2-3030
•
JNCA and JNCA-2
This document also provides basic information that applies to Johnson Controls SLC loops in
general, such as the branch resistance measurements.
See Section 2.4, “Control Panel Terminal Blocks”, on page 20 for basic panel-end SLC
connections. Additional information about each control panel and the modules and detectors
referenced in this document, and the part numbers for their manuals, can be found in the respective
installation manual as listed in Section 1.3, “Reference Documentation” below.
modules are changing to a new format. Several models are now available in this new format and
have replaced the old format illustrations in this manual. While the old format is no longer
manufactured for these models, Appendix C has been provided for those who need that wiring
information: it contains terminal conversion charts between the old and new formats. In this
appendix, the modules are referred to as “h-type” (the new format, which has horizontal rotary
dials) and “v-type” (the old format, which has vertical rotary dials). This naming convention is a
convenient way to avoid confusion when referring to a particular model, as the name of the model
does not indicate the format. Refer to Figure 1.1
