8 BATTERY POWER
N.B. It’s available an optional power supply with charger of NiMH batteries and relays outputs – see paragraph 10
The batteries are intended to maintain the efficiency of the electronic board, allowing the fog emission even in
absence of power supply from the electricity grid, until the heating system has a sufficient temperature.
The batteries also have the purpose of activating the motors that lift up the plates holding the cylinders, even when
the main power supply or 12V from the alarm system is available.
Without batteries, with dead batteries, rechargeable or poor quality ones, the motors do not lift up the plates that
push the cylinders.
For this reason it is important:
- To use only high quality alkaline batteries
- To replace them within the expiry date
- to replace them every 12 months anyway
- When Fast 01 report the signal of low battery (Paragraph 15)
- Test the battery case during every maintenance (Paragraph 15)
After inserting the batteries, it is important to check that they are in good contact with the battery case to guarantee
the proper functioning. For a description on how to make tests, refer to Paragraph 15.

DESCRIPTION AND INPUT AND OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
INPUTS
1
+
12V
Power input
2
GND
Power input
In these inputs is necessary to provide a stable supply, between 11V and 14V C.C. from the alarm
control panel or from an external 12V power supply.
This power is necessary to the operation of the LED and for the logic of operation.
In the absence of voltage on this input, the logic part will continue to operate, but the heater will not
.
For
about 2 hours and 30 minutes, or until the temperature of the heat exchanger (heating system) will allow, Fast
01 may produce fog.
The maximum current drawn from UR Fog on this input is 230 mA.
3
ARM
Arming input
By connecting this input to positive, Fast 01 is armed, blue frontal led is switched on and when the machine
reaches proper temperature it means that it is ready for shooting.
In case of alarm, when opening ARM input, the fog emission stops immediately, even if the time set wasn’t
reached.
4
SHOOTS
shooting input
Putting this input to positive,
if Fast 01 is hot and armed, starts fog emission for the set time (see
paragraph 13)
