Fire Alarm System Limitations
While a fire alarm system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for fire 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 with
remote notification capability—can provide early warn-
ing of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does
not assure protection against property damage or loss
of life resulting from a fire.
The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat
detectors be located throughout a protected premise fol-
lowing the recommendations of the current edition of the
National Fire Protection Association 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. A study by the Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency (an agency of the United States govern-
ment) 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. A
fire alarm system may not provide timely or adequate
warning, or simply may not function, for a variety of rea-
sons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke can-
not 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 detec-
tor, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement
fire.
Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a develop-
ing 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 smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed
to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such den-
sity 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 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 ade-
quate 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, signaling, and/or power. If
detectors are not so located, a developing fire may dam-
age 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 con-
sumed drugs, alcohol or medication. Please note that:
• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause sei-
zures 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 com-
prehend 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 electri-
cal 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 protection
against telephone line failure, backup radio transmis-
sion systems are recommended.
The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is
inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire fire alarm
system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance
is required per the manufacturer's recommendations,
and UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the
requirements of Chapter 7 of NFPA 72 shall be followed.
Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt or high air
velocity require more frequent maintenance. A mainte-
nance 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 inspections should be kept.

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 the fire alarm control panel. Discon-
nect all sources of power before servicing. Control unit
and associated equipment may be damaged by remov-
ing 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 Reaccepting Test after Software
Changes. To ensure proper system operation, this
product must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72
Chapter 7 after any programming operation or change in
site-specific software. Reaccepting 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 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
0-49° C/32-120° F and at a relative humidity of 85% RH
- 93% per ULC - (non-condensing) at 30° C/86° F. How-
ever, 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 nomi-
nal room temperature of 15-27° C/60-80° 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 sub-
jected to lightning-induced transients. Although no sys-
tem is completely immune from lightning transients and
interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibil-
ity. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recom-
mended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby
lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Services
Department if any problems are anticipated or encoun-
tered.
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 pos-
sible, 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-labs.
Overtightening may damage threads, resulting in
reduced terminal contact pressure and difficulty with
screw terminal removal.
Though designed to last many years, system compo-
nents can fail at any time. 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 asso-
ciated equipment. FACP operation and reliability
depend upon proper installation by authorized person-
nel.

Figure 1-1 LCD-80 Component Summary
Address Switch (ACS Mode only)
A rotary decimal switch (SW2) and a DIP switch
(SW3) are provided for setting the LCD-80 “start
address” when the LCD-80 is set for ACS Mode.
The address may be set from 01 to 32; use
address “01” only on AFP-200 systems. The
LCD-80 responds to the start address plus the
next addresses in sequence as defined by the
“size” selection. If set to a size that requires more
than one address, the LCD-80 will respond
to all such addresses, but will only
report communications failure if
the start address is not
received for 10 seconds or
more.

Section 2 The LCD-80 and ACS Mode
System 5000/System 500: Use of the LCD-80 with Remote Command
Inputs is not recommended.
AM2020/AFP1010: Security points must have “security” as part of its
custom label on the LCD-80 to differentiate between a fire alarm and
a security alarm condition.
The primary application for the LCD-80 in ACS Mode is to add
digital display and printer options to the System 5000, System 500
and AFP-200. It also provides an Alarm and Trouble Count option.
The power-limited EIA-485 interface provided by the control panels
will support the installation of up to 32 devices. This figure includes
the LCD-80, as well as AMG-1, ACS and LDM-series modules. On
the System 5000, all but two devices must be “Receive Only.” On the
System 500 and AFP-200, all but one device must be set for “Receive
Only” operation.
The LCD-80 can be mounted in ABF-1/1B, ABS-1T/1TB, or ABS-1D
backbox (not the ABS-1) or can mount on one slot of the CHS-4
chassis. The ABF-1/1B may include an AKS-1 keyswitch and APJ-1
phone jack. In addition, the LCD-80 contains an EIA-232 remote
printer interface. This interface allows for connection of the UL Fire
Alarm System-listed PRN printer.

2.2 Remote Printer Connections (ACS Mode)
The LCD-80 supports the PRN Remote Printer. This printer provides
a hard-copy printout of 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" by 11" tractor-feed paper.
Observe the following requirements when connecting a remote
printer:
• Power-limited but not supervised.
• 50 feet maximum wire length (typical) from the LCD-80 to
printer. Wiring distance limited by cable capacitance (see
EIA-232 standard).
• Only one printer supported per LCD-80.
• Use twisted shielded pair cable suitable for EIA-232
applications.
• This interface is intended for use with UL listed printers, such as
the PRN, that do not connect the EIA-232 Reference line to
chassis ground. This is required to avoid creating an earth-fault
condition.
• All EIA-232 circuit wiring to remain in same room as the
LCD-80.

2.4 Power Connections
The LCD-80 can be powered by MPS-24A, MPS-24B, AFP-200,
NCA, FCPS-24, APS-6R, or other +24 VDC power supply UL-listed
for fire protective applications, as well as FACPs with integral power
supplies such as NFS-640.
The power run to the LCD-80 must be power-limited but need not
contain a Power Supervision Relay since loss of power is inherently
supervised through communication loss. Maximum LCD-80 current
draw from power supply is 100 mA. Maximum current draw from the
control panel's secondary power source (batteries) under loss of AC
power is 50 mA (when the LCD-80 is operating ACS mode on the
AM2020/AFP1010, the current draw remains at 100mA under loss of
AC power). Include these currents in your power supply loading and
battery calculations.
!
CAUTION: Do not power the LCD-80 from any unfiltered
power source designed for powering NAC devices. This
may damage the equipment.
