1. Introduction
The fire alarm control panels (4 ones, 8 ones, and 16 ones) provide all of the
sophisticated features required of a leading edge conventional fire alarm system along
with the simple operation and efficient installation methods demanded by both
installers and building users.
The panel can be flush or surface mounted and the generously sized metal back box
allows ample space for rear or top cable entries.
A comprehensive range of auxiliary devices is available to operate with the fire
control panels including optical, ionization, photoelectric, photoelectric-thermal and
heat detectors.
Each of the system components has been specifically designed to operate as part of
the system. This provides assurance that the control panel, smoke detectors, interface
devices and the ancillary components are all fully compatible with one another and
that the full range of system functionality is supported by each device.

1.3 Fire Alarm System Limitations
An automatic fire alarm system – in general is made up of smoke, heat & other
detectors, manual call points, audible warning devices, fire alarm control panels with
remote notification capability, which can supply early warning of a developing fire.
Such a system, on the other hand, is unable to assure protection against property
damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
The manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors must be positioned
throughout a protected premise following the recommendations of the current edition
of the EN Standard, manufacturer’s recommendations contained in the Guide for
proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge to all
installing dealers. A study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (an agency
of the United Europe) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as many as
35% of all fires. A fire alarm system may not provide timely or sufficient notice, or
might not function, for a diversity 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 or 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, or chimneys 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 outlets.
Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching the detector.
The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm the smoke detectors.
Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such
density levels are not created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the
detectors will not go into alarm. Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have
sensing limitations. Detectors that have photo electronic 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
- 4 -

better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often
unpredictable in their growth, both types of detectors are necessarily best and a given
type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire. A smoke detector 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 or combustion and alarm only when heat on their
sensors increases at a preset rate or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat
detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity overtime. For this reason, the rate-of-
rise feature of each detector should be tested at least once per year by a qualified fire
protection expert. 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, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not located near the
control panel, a developing fire may damage the alarm system, crippling its ability to
report a fire.
Audible warning devices such as bells 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 people with a disability or those
who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol or medication. Please note that:
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 or comprehend the meaning of the signal. It is the property owner’s
responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training exercise 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 fire alarm 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. It
is essential to use only equipment listed for service with your control panel.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premise to a central
monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily disabled. For added
- 5 -

protection against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are
recommended.
The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is insufficient maintenance. To
keep the entire fire alarm system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is
required as the manufacturer’s recommendations, and UL and NFPA 72 shall be
followed. Environments 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. Maintenance should be scheduled monthly or as
required by National and/or local fire codes and should be performed by authorized
professional fire alarm installers only. Adequate written records of all inspection
should be kept.
1.4 nstallation Precautions
WARN NG – Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm
control panel. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing the control unit.
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 this manual is read and
understood fully.
CAUT ON – System Reacceptance Testing Requirements. To ensure proper system
operation, this product must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 after any
programming operation or change in site specific software. Re-acceptance testing is
required after any change, addition or deletion of system components, 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 inadvertently
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 indoor dry operation at 0-49° C/32-120° F
and at a relative humidity up to 93 ±2%RH (non-condensing) at 32 ±2° C/90 ±3° F.
However, the useful life of the system'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 all peripherals be installed in an
environment with a nominal room temperature of 15-27°C/60-80° F.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating device loops. Refer
to the manual specifications section for maximum allowable I.R. drop from the
specified device voltage.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be
- 6 -

damaged when subjected to lightning induced transients. Although no system is
completely immune from lightning transients and interferences, proper grounding will
reduce susceptibility. Overhead or out-side aerial wiring is not recommended, due to
an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical
Services 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, and
printed circuit board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. 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
by authorized personnel.
