System Overview
General
The Flair ENS24/ENS32 Wireless Annunciator utilizes an Inovonics
Receiver, Model EN4200, Security Only. A Flair Control Board interfaces
with this receiver to monitor Inovonics Security Transmitters and
annunciate status via LEDs and sounder.
The Flair ENS24/ENS32 Annunciator will also work with Inovonics
Repeaters.
Once a Transmitter broadcasts an alarm the corresponding LED on the
Annunciator will flash red and the Piezo will sound.
Pressing the Silence Button on the upper right side of the Annunciator
will silence the Piezo and steady the red LED.
For Non-Latching configuration (-F) the red LED will automatically clear
when the transmitter is restored.
LEDs at the top of the Annunciator will indicate status of annunciator
power, transmitter battery charge or receiver/transmitter trouble.
Registration of Transmitters is performed with an internal LCD Screen
and four Buttons. Registration of Transmitters and operation of the
Annunciator is very easy and intuitive. A new security system can be set
up in minutes.
IMPORTANT: Test all the transmitters and repeaters that are part of the
security system on a regular basis.

2. Prepare for Benchtop Setup and Testing
*** It is recommended that you initially setup the annunciators and
enroll all transmitters on a benchtop prior to installing in the field.
Cut a length of wire to connect 110 VAC Plug-In transformer to
Annunciator power supply. Use minimum #22 AWG wire.
Connect transformer to power supply “AC”, 16 – 18 VAC.
Prepare all transmitters to enroll into Annunciator
1. Install batteries in all transmitters
2. Leave transmitter covers off to allow access to transmitter
reset button
3. Arrange transmitters in order of zone number, one
transmitter per zone
4. Label transmitters with marker or tape with zone number.
With Annunciator powered and transmitters prepared, you may begin
to enroll transmitters.

5. System Operation
5.1. General Wireless Transmitter
Wireless transmitter will send any status changes immediately to
the EN4200 Receiver. In addition, the transmitter will periodically
transmit a status update to confirm operation.
5.2. Zone Alarm (Red LED)
OFF: The transmitter is secure, or the zone has no
transmitter registered to it.
FLASH: When the registered transmitter is in an “Alarm” or
“Tamper” condition
ON: The Alarm condition has been acknowledged by the
Acknowledge push button.
PULSING:
1. The associated transmitter for that zone has a low
battery, the Low Battery LED will also be on.
2. The associated transmitter for that zone is not working, a
repeater is not working, or the transmitter is not in the
area. The Trouble LED will also be on.

5.3. External Audible Sounder
Turn baffle on outside of sounder to adjust loudness.
ON STEADY: The audible sounder will turn on steady when
any zone in an “Alarm” or “Tamper” condition.
CHIRP: The audible sounder will begin to chirp when any
zone is in a “Trouble” or “Low Battery” condition. It will turn
off when the condition is cleared. There will generally be
an associated Zone LED that will pulse when the audible
sounder chirps.
5.4. Silence and System Test Push Button
The -F, Non-Latching configuration, has one push button
on the upper left side. This button is used to silence or
perform a system test on the Annunciator and the
Control Board.
Silence

Silence: If pressed when any zone is in alarm, Red LED
flashing and Audible sounder on, the audible sounder will
turn off and the zone Alarm Red LED will change from
flashing to steady
Lamp/Audible Sounder Test
During normal operations with no “Alarm” messages, the
Silence push button may be pressed for 5 seconds and
will cause:
1. The Audible sounder to chirp 2 times
2. All the LEDs to flash for 3 seconds
3. The Relay to turn on for 3 seconds
4. The Audible sounder to chirp 3 times
Note: If transmitter is still sending a “Low Battery”, “Missing”,
“Alarm” or “Tamper” message then that Alarm LED and the
audible sounder will continue to stay on or flash. For -F, Non-
Latching configuration, the relay output will turn off after
transmitter clears and a ”Secure” status message has been
received.
5.5. Power LED
ON Green: During normal AC operation
ON Red: During DC operation, Loss of AC Power
OFF: Loss of all power, AC and Battery
FLASHING Red: When there is a backup battery and the
voltage drops below 10.7 Volts.
FLASHING Green Yellow: When AC operation is restored
but battery is not charged above 10.7 Volts. Continuous
Green Yellow flashing may mean that battery is no longer
good.

5.6. Common Transmitter Low Battery LED
OFF: During normal transmitter operation
ON: When the annunciator receives a “Low Battery” message
from any enrolled transmitters or device. It will
automatically turn off when the low battery condition is
corrected by replacing the battery of the transmitter or
device.
5.7. Common Trouble LED
OFF: During normal operation
ON: When the annunciator fails to receive a check in
message from any enrolled transmitter or device.
