Section 5.3 Remote Printers
The AM2020/AFP1010 can employ PRN Remote
Printers. This printer provides a hard-copy printout of
all status changes within the system and time-
stamps the printout with the current time-of-day and
date. The PRN provides 80 columns of data on
standard 9 inch by 11 inch tractor-feed paper.
Installation
Remote printers require 120 VAC, 50/60Hz primary
power. A secondary power source (battery backup) is
not provided; the use of a separate Uninterruptable
Power Supply (UPS) 50 watt minimum, UL listed for
Fire Protective Signaling is recommended. A UPS is
required for NFPA 72 Proprietary Protected Premises
Receiving Unit applications.
Connection between the control panel and PRN is
provided through an EIA-232 interface on the Serial
Interface Board. An installer provided cable must be
assembled for connection to the printer's EIA-232
port. Refer to Figure 5.3-2 for wiring instructions.
Using a special print feature, the PRN allows all
information programmed into the panel to be printed
out (including system configuration and addressable
device parameters).
NOTE
The PRN is factory programmed.
