Output Modules Controlling Notification Appliances
Not more than one notification zone shall be affected by a fault condition when installing output modules on SLC
loops for controlling notification appliances. Install devices on an SLC loop of the Elite-RS Panel containing one of
the following methods to meet this requirement:
•
Perform an SLC loop installation that does not contain output devices.
•
Perform an SLC loop installation where output devices are in one zone.
•
Perform a Class A, Style 7 SLC loop installation where output devices are in different zones.
•
Perform a Class A SLC loop installation with output devices in separate zones, short-circuit-isolators on
SLC Loops and output devices on SLC loops with separate notification zones.
Reference “Connecting Class A Loops” for example-circuits containing these features.
Section 51.4.3 of UL 864, 9th edition specifies that a single break, single ground, or wire-to-wire fault on the
installation conductors of a signaling line circuit for use with addressable notification appliances or modules shall
not effect operation of more than one notification zone.
Silencing Notification Appliances
Notification Appliance (NA) silencing on the Elite-RS Panel meets exception 1, item 33.3.4. of UL 864, 9th edition.
Individual NA zones can be re-sounded by addressable loops on the Elite-RS Panel after receiving the global silence
command for multiple NA zones.
Exception 1 states,“When a system is intended to provide signaling service to two or more physically separated
buildings or zones, re-energizing of the notification appliance circuits only on a zone basis meets the intent of the
requirement.”
NAC Synchronization
NAC 1 and 2 outputs on the Elite-RS Panel can be connected for dual-output synchronization. These NAC outputs
cannot be utilized for cross-panel synchronization.
Synchronized device connections on multiple Elite-RS Panels require special conditions when installing audible and
visual Notification Appliances:
Audible
Devices
The installation of synchronized-audible notification appliances on one control panel shall not
be installed in hearing range of another control panel operating synchronized-audible
notification appliances.
NAC outputs on the Elite-RS Panel are synchronized however
these outputs cannot be synchronized with other control panels operating
synchronized-audible notification appliances.
Visual Devices
The installation of synchronized-visual notification appliances on one control panel shall not be
installed in the line-of-sight of another control panel operating synchronized-visual
notification appliances.
NAC outputs on the Elite-RS Panel are synchronized however
these outputs cannot be synchronized with other control panels operating
synchronized-visual notification appliances.
