Fire Alarm & Emergency Communication System Limitations
While a life safety system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for life and property insurance!
An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke
detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning
devices, and a fire alarm control panel (FACP) with remote notifica-
tion capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire. Such
a system, however, does not assure protection against property
damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
An emergency communication system—typically made up of an
automatic fire alarm system (as described above) and a life safety
communication system that may include an autonomous control
unit (ACU), local operating console (LOC), voice communication,
and other various interoperable communication methods—can
broadcast a mass notification message. Such a system, however,
does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life
resulting from a fire or life safety event.
The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors
be located throughout a protected premises following the
recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire
ProtectionAssociation Standard 72 (NFPA 72), manufacturer's
recommendations, State and local codes, and the
recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use of System
Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge to all
installing dealers. This document can be found at http://
www.systemsensor.com/appguides/.A study by the Federal
Emergency ManagementAgency (an agency of the United States
government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as
many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to
provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or
protection against fire.Afire alarm system may not provide timely or
adequate warning, or simply may not function, for a variety of
reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach
the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on roofs, or
on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not
sense a fire on another level or floor of a building.A second-floor
detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.
Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may
not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:
• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, chim-
neys, even wet or humid areas may inhibit particle or smoke
flow.
• Smoke particles may become “cold,” stratify, and not reach the
ceiling or upper walls where detectors are located.
• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air out-
lets, such as air conditioning vents.
• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching
the detector.
The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm smoke
detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels
of smoke density. If such density levels are not created by a devel-
oping fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will not go into
alarm.
Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limita-
tions. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing chambers tend
to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which have little
visible smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers
tend to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires.
Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable
in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a
given type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire.
Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning
of fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially
in bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions (caused by
escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).
Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm
only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate
or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may
be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rate-
of-rise feature of each detector should be tested at least once per
year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are
designed to protect property, not life.
IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same
room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the
connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signal-
ing, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a developing fire
may damage the alarm system, compromising its ability to report a
fire.
Audible warning devices such as bells, horns, strobes, speak-
ers and displays may not alert people if these devices are located
on the other side of closed or partly open doors or are located on
another floor of a building. Any warning device may fail to alert peo-
ple with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs,
alcohol, or medication. Please note that:
• An emergency communication system may take priority over a
fire alarm system in the event of a life safety emergency.
• Voice messaging systems mustbe designed to meet intelligibility
requirements as defined by NFPA, local codes, and Authorities
Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
• Language and instructional requirements must be clearly dis-
seminated on any local displays.
• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in
people with conditions such as epilepsy.
• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a
fire alarm signal, do not respond to or comprehend the meaning
of the signal.Audible devices, such as horns and bells, can have
different tonal patterns and frequencies. It is the property
owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training
exercises to make people aware of fire alarm signals and
instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.
• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause
temporary or permanent hearing loss.
A life safety system will not operate without any electrical power. If
AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries only
for a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly
maintained and replaced regularly.
Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible
with the control panel. It is essential to use only equipment listed for
service with your control panel.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises
to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily
disabled. For added protection against telephone line failure,
backup radio transmission systems are recommended.
The most common cause of life safety system malfunction is inad-
equate maintenance. To keep the entire life safety system in excel-
lent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per the
manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards.At
a minimum, the requirements of NFPA 72 shall be followed. Envi-
ronments with large amounts of dust, dirt, or high air velocity require
more frequent maintenance.A maintenance agreement should be
arranged through the local manufacturer's representative. Mainte-
nance should be scheduled as required by National and/or local fire
codes and should be performed by authorized professional life
safety system installers only. Adequate written records of all inspec-
tions should be kept. Limit-D2-2016

Installation Precautions
Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be con-
nected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of
power before servicing. Controlunit and associated equipment may
be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or inter-
connecting cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to
install, service, or operate this unit until manuals are read and
understood.
CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after Software
Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product must be
tested in accordance with NFPA 72 after any programming opera-
tion or change in site-specific software. Re-acceptance testing is
required after any change, addition or deletion of system compo-
nents, or after any modification, repair or adjustment to system
hardware or wiring.All components, circuits, system operations, or
software functions known to be affected by a change must be 100%
tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadver-
tently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not directly
affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also
be tested and proper system operation verified.
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0-49º C/
32-120º F and at a relative humidity 93% ± 2% RH (noncondens-
ing) at 32°C ± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F). However, the useful life of the sys-
tem's standby batteries and the electronic components may be
adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity.
Therefore, it is recommended that this system and its peripherals
be installed in an environment with a normal room temperature of
15-27º C/60-80º F.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating
device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R.
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 light-
ning transients and interference, proper grounding will reduce sus-
ceptibility. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended,
due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Con-
sult with the Technical Services Department if any problems are
anticipated or encountered.
DisconnectAC 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 more than 9 in-lbs. Over-tighten-
ing 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 cir-
cuits 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 pro-
gramming manuals. These instructions must be followed to avoid
damage to the control panel and associated equipment. FACP
operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.

Section 1: Overview
1.1 RPS-1000 Description
The RPS-1000 Intelligent Power Module provides additional power and circuits to the IFP-2100, IFP-2100ECS, IFP-2000, IFP-
2000ECS, IFP-1000, IFP-1000ECS, IFP-300, IFP-300ECS, IFP-100, IFP-100ECS or IFP-75 FACPs. The RPS-1000 can power all the
FACP compatible modules, including SLC devices (via a Model 5815XL or 6815 SLC Expander), remote annunciators, notification
appliances, auxiliary power modules, and all other compatible modules. RPS-1000 is available in a black cabinet as P/N RPS-1000B*
The RPS-1000 has six Flexputs™ and two programmable relays. Outputs are rated 3.0 A (6.0 A total for each RPS-1000). Relays are
Form C rated at 2.5 A @ 24 VDC. Outputs and relays are fully programmable.
The RPS-1000 is optically isolated, providing ground loop isolation and transient protection. It functions as an SBUS repeater which
conditions the RS-485 signal and allows the module to drive up to 6,000 feet of additional SBUS wiring.
The RPS-1000 is housed in a metal cabinet that is identical in size to the IFP-1000/IFP-1000ECS FACP cabinet. This cabinet is large
enough to house two 17 AH batteries. The RPS-1000 cabinet provides mounting studs for two Model 5815XL or 6815 SLC Expander
modules.
The RPS-1000 communicates to the main FACPvia the SBUS. Each RPS-1000 provides an additional 6,000 feet of SBUS wiring length
to the main panel. As the drawings on the next pages illustrate, this allows you to distribute modules, SLC devices, and outputs through-
out an extremely large facility.
As well as expanding the wiring length capabilities of the FACP, the RPS-1000 also expands the power capabilities by an additional 6.0
A of current.
*All references to RPS-1000 within this manual are applicable to the RPS-1000B.
1.1.1 Maximum Number of SBUS Modules
The chart below shows the maximum number of compatible modules that can be used in an Intelligent installation. Modules can be dis-
tributed among the main panel SBUS and each additional RPS-1000 SBUS in virtually any combination.
NOTE: The IFP-100 and IFP-75 do not use 5815XL or 6815 SLC expanders.

Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery Before You Begin Installing
2.6 Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery
This section is for helping you determine the current draw and standby battery needs for your installation.
2.6.1 Worksheet Requirements
The following steps must be taken when determining RPS-1000 current draw and standby battery requirements.
Filling in the Current Draw Worksheet, Table 2.4,Table 2.5 or Table 2.6
1. For the RPS-1000, the worst case current draw is listed for the panel, addressable devices, and SLC expanders. Fill in the number of
addressable devices and expanders that will be used in the system and compute the current draw requirements for alarm and
standby.
2. Add up the current draw for all auxiliary devices and record in the table at Line B.
3. Add up all notification appliance loads and record in the table at Line C.
4. For notification appliances and auxiliary devices not mentioned in the manual, refer to the device manual for the current ratings.
5. Make sure that the total alarm current you calculated, including current for the panel itself, does not exceed 6.0 A. This is the
maximum alarm current allowable.
6. Complete the remaining instructions in the table for determining battery size requirements.
Maximum Battery Standby Load
Table 2.3 shows the maximum battery standby load for the RPS-1000 based on 24 and 60 hours of standby. The standby load calcula-
tions of line G in the Current Draw Calculation Worksheet must be less than the number shown in Table 2.3 for the battery size used and
standby hours required.
*Use a separate worksheet for each RPS-1000
2.6.2 Current Draw Worksheet for IDP SLC Devices
For each RPS-1000* in the installation, use this worksheet to determine current requirements during alarm/battery standby operation.
See individual FACP manual for maximum number of devices.
