Introduction
RADIO FREQUENCYENERGY - This equipment generates, uses,and can radiate
radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and found
to comply with the EMC Requirements of Standard GB47 17-93 of the People’s
Republic of China, as well asthe European Economic Community (EEC) standards
for EMC (EN50082-1, 1992) and EMI (EN55022, Class A), and is designed to
provide reasonable protection against such electro-magnetic interference when
operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause interference in which casethe user at his own expense will be
required to take whatever measures may be required to correct the interference.
The 4604-9201 Graphical LCD Annunciator (Figure 1) supports symbol-based
languages (such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Thai) and ispart of the
4100/4 120 Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) product line. The annunciator
communicates with the FACP via RUI (Remote Unit Interface) communications.
Jobs that require symbol-based language annunciation are configured with the
standard 4100 Programming Unit in English (i.e., the job isbuilt and the
configuration file is downloaded into the FACP in English). Tools are provided to
allow the translation of the English custom labels and the in-circuit burning of Flash
Memory chips within the Graphical LCD Annunciator.
The Graphical LCD Annunciator is offered in two different configurations: the
remote-mount configuration and the internal-mount configuration. The remote-
mount configuration is compatible with all 4100,4120, and 4020 product lines. The
internal-mount configuration is compatible with the 4100/4 120 product lines. This
publication describes how to install an remote-mount Graphical LCD Annunciator.

Installation Requirements
Wiring Precautions
The 4604-920 1Graphical LCD has the following installation requirements:
l The 4604-920 1Graphical LCD Annunciator can be semi-flush-mounted or
surface-mounted.
l A maximum of 31 annunciators can be connected to a 4 100 FACP.
l When wiring an annunciator, at least 18 AWG twisted wire is required.
. If twisted-shielded pair wire is used, the shield must be grounded in the
4100 FACP.
The following wiring precautions should be observed when wiring the Graphical
LCD Annunciator.
. All wiring must be copper-conductor.
. Wire lengths in excessof those listed in Tables 1 through 5 are not permitted.
l If shielding is used, you must observe the following:
- Metallic continuity of the shield must be maintained throughout the entire
length of the cable.
- The entire length of the cable must have a resistance greater than 1 Megohm
to earth ground.
- The shield must connect to a SHIELD terminal at each annunciator, and
must be grounded only at the main panel.
l If shielded wire isnot used, wire must be run in metallic conduit or equivalent.
l Underground wiring must be free of water.
l Wires must not be run through elevator shafts.
l Wire runs in plenums must be in conduit.
l
Splicing ispermitted provided that:
- All such connections are soldered (rosin-core solder), crimped in metal
sleeves, or encapsulated with an epoxy resin.
- When solder or crimped metal sleeves are used, the junction is insulated
with a high-grade electrical tape assound as the original insulating jacket.
- The shield’s continuity is maintained throughout the cable’s length.
. The annunciator box must be connected to Earth Ground or building steel.
l Only system wiring can share the same conduit.

Wiring Precautions
(Continued)
l A Graphical LCD Annunciator cannot be used with wiring that goes outside the
building (above or below ground) unless overvoltage suppression isprovided at
both ends. Communication and power wiring must meet the following
conditions.
- Use Simplex Model 208 l-9044 Overvoltage Protectors. (2OOmA or less).
No restrictions on wire routing. Maximum wire length is 2500 feet.
- Use Simplex Model 2081-9027 (2OOmAmax) or 2081-9028 (5A max)
Isolated Loop Circuit Protectors.
- For Underground Wiring, select the appropriate isolated loop circuit
protector. The circuit wiring must be run in a separate parallel wiring
trough, separated from any commercial power distribution wiring.
l For Overhead Wiring, select the appropriate isolated loop circuit
protector. The wiring is limited to one contiguous property and the
total wire length must not exceed 2500 feet. The circuit wiring must be
run on separate poles, separated from any poles supporting commerical
power distribution wiring. The circuit wiring must be run in parallel
with direct relation to the commercial power distribution. The
separation is a minimum distance (whichever isgreater) of 100 feet, or
the maximun span between any two adjacent poles of either the system’s
circuit or the commericial power distribution circuit.
l
For maximum wire lengths when using protectors, see Tables 2,4,
and 5.

Annunciator Overview
What’s New
Screen Layout
From the standpoint of the 4100 Master FACP, the Graphical LCD Annunciator acts
in a manner that isconsistent with the conventional 4603-9101 LCD annunciator.
The only difference is that the graphical annunciator never reque:ststext from the
4 100 Master. The card type and supported RUI communications are identical to the
4603-9 101 LCD annunciator.
The Graphical LCD Annunciator maps the following information to its display:
.
Point identifiers; (card-point-subpoint)
. Point banners; (pull station, tire monitor zone, etc.)
. Point status; (fire alarm, priority 2 alarm, etc.)
For a Chinese display using a 24x24 symbol format with 240x128 display hardware,
the format is asshown in Figure 8.

If there are any alarm, priority 2, supervisory or trouble conditions in the system at the
time of communication loss,you will be able to scroll through those points already in
the graphical LCD annunciator. After a30-second time-out, the display reverts back to
the COMM LOST message.
The display isback-lit to improve readability, especially in dark ambient lighting
conditions. You can change the display’s contrast by adjusting Potentiometer R44 on
the Graphical LCD Annunciator card. (SeeFigure 6.)
In the caseof AC power loss,the LCD display is back-lit if there is an ALARM

Acknowledge Keys and
Associated LEDs
Piezo Alert Signal
The operation of Graphical LCD Annunciator Acknowledgement Keys and
associated LEDs are defined the same astheir counterparts on the Master System’s
Front Panel.
Annunciation of the ALARM, PRIORITY 2, SUPERVISORY, and TROUBLE events
are programmable via the 4100 programming unit. (See“Progranming.“)
Once a point isacknowledged (ACKed) at the LCD annunciator, itsACKed statusis
taken into account in all the corresponding LED tracking modes. In other words, the
change in point statusis system-wide.
The Graphical LCD Annunciator Piezo Alert Signal (Piezo) isupdated in a
prioritized manner similar to the Piezo on the 4 100 FACP:
1. Key feedback
2. Alarm, Priority 2 (beeping)
3. Supervisory/Trouble, Communication loss (steady ON)
4. Alert Condition (four programmable LEDs)
Piezo activation due to a key pressis protected by the Key Switch.
Any Alarm / Priority 2 / Supervisory / Trouble / Alert condition at the Graphical LCD
Annunciator causesan automatic activation of the Piezo.
If the Piezo is activated due to Alarm I Priority 2 / Supervisory I Trouble I Alert
condition(s) can be silenced locally with the first key press of the appropriate ACK Key,
name1.y- ALARM ACK, PRI2 ACK, SUPV ACK, or TBL ACK - given the current
Protection Level is valid to perform the operation. However, the appropriate LED will
remain flashing until all of the abnormal conditions are acknowledged.
Note: The Graphical LCD Annunciator Piezo can not be controlled by SMPL or
Custom Control user programming.
