Installation Precautions
Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all
sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting
cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this unit
until manuals are read and understood.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a
10% voltage drop from the specified device voltage.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning
induced transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning transients and interference, proper grounding
will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby
lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Support Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.
Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling, filing, reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make
all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer,
or printed circuit board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals. Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact pressure and
difficulty with screw terminal removal.
This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any
circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies
removed from the unit.
Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and programming manuals. These instructions must be followed to
avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment. FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.
The equipment must be correctly programmed and installed to suit the specific application. Please ensure correct
operational parameters are set prior to commissioning. If further details on programming options are required, please consult
the programming manual or contact our helpful technical support personnel.
EMC Warning:
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in which case the user
may be required to take adequate measures.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) tests are performed in accordance with Class A requirements of AS/NZS CISPR
