SAFETY SUMMARY
Note: 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 this 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 this manual is read and understood.
CAUTION
!
System Reacceptance Test after Software Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product
must be tested in accordance with NFPA-72 (2002) Chapter 10 after any programming operation or change
in site-specific software. Reacceptance 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 operation at 0° to 49° C and at a relative humidity of 85% (non-
condensing) @ 30°C. However, the useful life of the system’s standby batteries and the electronic
components may be adversely affected by extreme temperature and humidity variations. Therefore, it is
recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a nominal room
temperature of 60° to 80°F.
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. The use of overhead or outside
aerial wiring is not recommended due to the increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult
with the Applications Engineering 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. Before making modifications, verify that they will
not interfere with battery and printed circuit board location.
Do not over 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 control 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. System operation and
reliability depend upon proper installation.
FIRE ALARM SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Note: While installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance rates possible, it is not a substitute for fire insur-
ance!
An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible
warning devices, and a fire alarm control unit with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a develop-
ing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.

Any fire alarm system may fail for a variety of reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in walls, or 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. Furthermore, all types of smoke detec-
tors—both ionization and photoelectric types—have sensing limitations. No type of smoke detector can sense every kind
of fire caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper stor-
age of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.
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.
A fire alarm system will not operate without electrical power. If AC power fails, the system will operate from standby
batteries only for a specified time.
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.
Auxiliary 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 premise to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarilydisabled.
The most common cause of fire alarm malfunctions, however, is inadequate maintenance.All devices and system wiring
should be tested and maintained by professional fire alarm installers following written procedures supplied with each
device. System inspection and testing should be scheduled monthly or as required by national and/or local fire codes.
Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.
GENERAL SAFETY NOTICES
Note: The following must be observed to maintain personnel safety.
The following general safety notices supplement specific warnings and cautions appearing in the manual. The safety
precautions in this section must be understood and applied during operation and maintenance. This manual is to be used
by trained distributors/technicians. The entire manual should be read and fully understood prior to installation.
TEST EQUIPMENT
Make certain test equipment is in good operating condition. Do not touch live equipment or personnel working on live
equipment while holding a test meter. Some types of measuring devices should not be grounded; these devices should
not be held when taking measurements.
FIRST AID
Any injury, no matter how slight, should never go unattended. Always obtain first aid or medical attention immediately.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The following general safety precautions are to be observed at all times:
1. All electrical components associated with equipment shall be installed and grounded in accordance with NEC, NFPA
and local regulatory requirements.
2. Special precautionary measures are essential to prevent applying power to equipment at any time maintenance work
is in progress.
3. Before working on electrical equipment, use a voltmeter to ensure that the system is not energized.
4. When working near electricity, do not use metal rulers, flashlights, metallic pencils or any other objects having ex-
posed conductive material.
5. When connecting a meter to terminals for measurement, use voltage range higher than the expected voltage.

GENERALINFORMATION
1-1 INTRODUCTION
Thismanual contains the operation,maintenance, trouble-
shooting, parts listing and installation information neces-
sary to support the PEGAsys™Intelligent Suppression
Control and FireAlarm System.
Note: This manual is to be used by trained distributors
only. The entire manual should be read and fully
understood prior to installation. Refer to Figure 1-
1 for the PEGAsys System overall diagram.
1-1.1 System Description
PEGAsysis a firealarm/suppression control systemwhich
can be used for local, auxiliary, remote protective signal-
ing and releasing device service. The system is a micro-
processor based design for use with intelligent detectors
and loop devices.
The system utilizes distributed intelligent field devices.
These devices are typically smoke detectors, contact in-
putdevices,relay outputsandsignal output moduleswhich
representasingle fire alarm initiation/indicatingzone.Each
device contains its own data transceiver, micro controller,
4Kofmemoryand applicable algorithms whichallowseach
device to operate independently of the control system.
These unique devices have the ability to analyze informa-
tion, make decisions and store information within them-
selves.Theycommunicate with the PEGAsys system using
the BIP protocol which utilizes a two-wire (Style 4), four
wire (Style 6) or isolated (Style 7) multiplex trunk. The
PEGAsyscansupportupto255deviceaddressesperloop,
with a maximum of eight (8) loops, for a total of 2,040 in-
telligent device points per system.
The PEGAsys is capable of controlling a wide variety of
auxiliary devices, such as relays, audible/visual indicating
signal devices and agent/sprinkler release systems. The
system also supports the use of serial printers which pro-
vide hard copy of system status information.
There are three versions of the PEGAsys currently in ser-
vice. These three versions are identified as:
• Pre-Network,
• Networkable, and
• Networkableanddirectly-integrablewith ORION™
XT High-Sensitivity Smoke Detectors (HSSDs).
Pre-networked systems have operating firmware in the
Central Control Module (CCM) that ranged from Version
48.0to Version6X.X.Allpre-networkedsystems must now
have Version 60.0, or higher, operating firmware. Pre-net-
worked systems are not covered in this manual.
Networkable systems have a modified CCM that can ac-
cept a Network Interface Card (NIC) for peer-to-peer con-
trolunitoperations,andcanaccommodate Remote Display
Modules (RDMs), Remote Display Control Modules
(RDCMs) and ATM Series Driver Modules (ATM-L/R).
Networkable systems have CCM Version 7X.X firmware.
Networkable systems that are directly-integrable with
ORION XT HSSDs have Version 8X.X CCM firmware.
1-1.2 System Components
The system is comprised of three major components, as
showninFigure1-1:theCentralControlPanel(CCP)which
communicates with the field devices and drives output
devicessuch asalarm signals thatcommunicate withcen-
tral stations and various types of control equipment; a dis-
playpanellocatedon the CCPthat provides systemstatus
LEDsand Control Switches;and an 80-characterLCD that
provides alphanumeric display of system status informa-
tion.
The single-loop PEGAsys Central Control Panel (P/N
76-100000-501) consists of the Central Control Module
(CCM) assembly, one receiver/transmitter (RX/TX) mod-
ule and one power supply assembly. Optionally the sys-
temcan adda motherboard assembly which allowsfor the
installation of optional output modules.An auxiliary power
supply module can be added which increases the base
system power supply capacity to 8.0Amps at 24 Vdc.
Inmulti-loopform,thePEGAsys MLpanel(P/N 76-100000-
600) consists of a CCM, one (1) power-supply assembly,
one(1) RX/TX moduleand one (1)multi-loop motherboard
mounted in the enclosure. The unique multi-loop
motherboard provides the ability to connect up to eight (8)
RX/TX modules to the system which allows for a full 2,040
addressable points to be connected to the PEGAsys ML
system.
Auxiliary enclosures are available to allow the system to
be expanded. The auxiliary enclosure has the same di-
mensions as that of the main enclosure, with the absence
of the window in the door. There are optional backplanes
thatinstallintheexpansionenclosure.This allowsthenum-
ber of output modules and system power supplies to be
expanded.To allow for maximumsystem flexibilityand ex-
pansion, enclosure(s) and backplane(s) can be added to
the system. SeeAppendix B for further system expansion
details.

1-2 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The following paragraphs give a brief description of each
component used in the PEGAsys system. For functional
descriptions of each component, see Chapter 3 of this
manual.
1-2.1 Central Control Module (CCM)
The CCM assembly is the heart of the system and is com-
prised of two (2) printed circuit board (PCB) assemblies,
the display module and the main processor module. The
CCM controls the operation and supervision of all the sys-
tem modules and software within the PEGAsys system. It
receives loop device data from the RX/TX module, pro-
cesses the data based on pre-programmed instructions
and transmits output commands to the output modules,
field devices and display module(s).
1-2.2 DisplayModule
The display module assembly, attached to the main pro-
cessor PCB, provides the system with the operator inter-
face for control switches, system status LEDs, system
trouble/alarm buzzer, an 80-character (2 x 40) LCD dis-
play and an integral numeric keypad. The keypad is used
for entering the security password and navigating through
the user menus. The system buzzer provides two (2) dis-
tinctly different signaling patterns for audible warning of
system alarms and troubles.
