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 panel 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.
The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detec-
tors be located throughout a protected premise following the
recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire
Protection Association Standard 72-1999 (NFPA 72-1999),
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 Emer-
gency Management Agency (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. A fire alarm sys-
tem 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, 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 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 photoelectronic sensing
chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming
fires, which have little visible smoke. Detectors that have ion-
izing-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 predeter-
mined 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 pro-
tection 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 sys-
tem for the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communi-
cations, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so
located, a developing fire may damage the alarm system, crip-
pling 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 medica-
tion. 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 responsi-
bility 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 com-
patible with the control panel. It is essential to use only equip-
ment 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 tele-
phone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are rec-
ommended.
The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is inade-
quate 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 stan-
dards. At a minimum, the requirements of Chapter 7 of NFPA
72-1999 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts
of dust, dirt or high air velocity require more frequent mainte-
nance. 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 pro-
fessional 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. Disconnect all
sources of power before servicing. The control unit and asso-
ciated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or insert-
ing 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 72-1999 Chapter 7
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 modifi-
cation, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.
All components, circuits, system operations, or software func-
tions known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested.
In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvert-
ently 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 ver-
ified.
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0°C
to 49°C (32°F to 120°F) and at a relative humidity (noncon-
densing) of 85% at 30°C (86°F) per NFPA, and 93% ± 2% at
32°C ± 2°C (89.6°F ± 1.1°F) per ULC. However, the useful life
of the system's standby batteries and the electronic compo-
nents 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 indi-
cating 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 light-
ning-induced transients. Although no system is completely
immune from lightning transients and interferences, proper
grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside
aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased sus-
ceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Techni-
cal Assistance Center 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 modifi-
cations, verify that they will not interfere with battery, trans-
former, and printed circuit board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs.
Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced ter-
minal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal
removal.
Though designed to last many years, system components
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 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
by authorized personnel.

Section 3 Configuring the ACPS-2406
3.1 DIP Switch Configuration
Programming at the ACPS-2406 is done by configuring two sets of DIP switches, SW2 and SW3. SW3 is
a set of mode selection switches for output circuits one through four, as well as AC Loss, AC Delay, settings
for coded NAC patterns, Canadian Trouble Reporting, and Dual Stage operation. SW2 is a set of switches
with various mode options for the output circuits, as well as settings for Signal Silence, strobe
synchronization type, and battery charger. Setting these 16 switches in different configurations will provide
various options as described in Table 3.1.
SW2 and SW3 are horizontally aligned on the ACPS-2406 board just above the metal case which
covers the bottom half of the power supply. To place a switch in the OFF position, depress the end
of the switch closest to the metal case. To place a switch in the ON position, depress the end of the
switch farthest from the metal case. Refer to Figure 3.1 below for an illustration of the OFF and
ON positions. Table 3.1 describes the ACPS-2406 DIP Switch settings.

***CAUTION: FOR NON-CODED MASTER/SLAVE OPERATION: when a non-coded signal is supplied to the UZC connections of
TB6, the same protocol must also be programmed at the slave ACPS-2406 (using SW2.6 and SW2.7) as programmed at the master
ACPS-2406. This will ensure operation of all non-coded outputs of the slave ACPS-2406 should signal loss occur of the synchronization
input (UZC connections) at TB6.

*The FACP requires the addition of one virtual address when this option is used. This extra address is specifically for Electronic Signal
Silence only and should be configured in the panel as a “silenceable output”, activated by CBE. The Electronic Signal Silence option is an
“all or none” option and is used with Gentex, System Sensor and Wheelock synchronized devices; all addressed NACs will silence when
this option is activated. When synchronized strobes are used, the horns will mute, but the strobes will remain active.
**Strobe Synchronization only works with non-coded NACs.
Note: AM2020/AFP-1010 - Do not use PWRC Type Code for any ACPS-2406 address.

Configuring the ACPS-2406 Addressing
18 ACPS-2406 PN 51304:B 09/02/2003
The DIP Switch configurations chosen determine the ACPS-2406 address consumption. Refer to
Table 3.2 through Table 3.7 for illustrations of the DIP Switch/address consumption relationship.
3.2 Addressing
The installer must set aside sequential SLC addresses (an address block) equal to the number of
addresses that will be consumed by the ACPS-2406. Determing the size of the address block and
setting the SLC base address is described in this section.
Determining Address Consumption
An ACPS-2406 can occupy an address block of 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, or 13 addresses on an SLC, depending on the
configuration of ACPS-2406 DIP Switches. Table 3.2 through Table 3.7 below detail the DIP Switch/
address consumption relationship. Compare the actual DIP Switch settings with the tables: a match will
give the total number of SLC addresses necessary for the address block.
Refer to “Setting the Base Address” for information on the SLC Base Address.

Table 3.7 DIP Switch Settings Resulting in 13 Addresses Consumed
Setting the Base Address
The combined rotary switch (SW1) and address jumper (JP6) settings select the base address, the
first address of the block of SLC addresses used. The address block will begin at a number that
ends in zero or five depending on the settings, and extend beyond that number to fulfill the
ACPS-2406 address requirements. All addresses included in the address block must be
programmed points at the FACP whether or not the output points are actually used.
Note: The lowest base address for the ACPS-2406 is 05. Do not set the FACP addresses 00 through 04 for the ACPS-2406.
The Rotary Switch
The rotary switch SW1 determines the address decade. Each number on the dial represents the ten
addresses of a decade. Turning the arrow until it points at a number selects that number’s decade.
For example:
Pointing the arrow at the 1 selects the “one” address decade, beginning at 10.
Pointing the arrow at the 12 selects the “twelve” address decade, beginning at 120.
JP6
The three pins of JP6 are used in conjunction with a shunt plug to further define the addresses.
They select the number that ends with zero or five in the decade defined by the rotary switch.
Placing the shunt plug over the two pins closest to the 0 selects the number with zero at the end as
the first address. Placing the shunt plug over the two pins closest to the 5 selects the number with
five at the end as the first address.
