INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS Check that you have all the equipment you need to complete the installation. Follow the field wiring diagrams and installation notes in this manual. Install the equipment in a clean, dry environment (minimal dust). Avoid installing the equipment where vibrations will occur. Remove all electronic assemblies prior to drilling, filing, reaming, or punching the enclosure. When possible, make all cable entries from the side, being careful to separate the power limited conductors form the non-power limited conductors. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer, 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. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing, removing, or inserting any circuit board. Control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, sub-assemblies, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized. WIRING CONSIDERATIONS This fire alarm control panel contains power-limited circuits. You cannot connect external sources of power to these circuits without invalidating their approval. Verify that wiring sizes are adequate for all initiating device and notification appliance circuits. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% drop from the specified voltage. The installer must ensure that the wiring and devices installed in the system meet the current National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, and all applicable state and local building code requirements. Use the conductor size and type required by local codes. (See NFPA 70, Article 760). Wiring resistance must not be more than that shown on the field wiring diagrams. To reduce errors and help in servicing the system, all conductors should be labeled or otherwise coded and logged at installation to identify circuit assignment and polarity. If the conductors are logged with a code, keep the log that explains the code with the manual, so that it is available to other people working on the panel. Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or be damaged when subjected to lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely immune to lightning transients and interference, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. FCI does not recommend the use of overhead or outside aerial wiring due to the increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the FCI Technical Support Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered. To prevent the spread of fire, use proper patching materials to areas where system wiring passes through fire-rated walls or floors. SURVIVABILITY Per the National Fire Alarm Code, NFPA 72, all circuits necessary for the operation of the notification appliances shall be protected until they enter the evacuation signaling zone that they serve. Any of the following methods shall be considered acceptable as meeting these requirements:

(1) A 2-hour rated cable or cable system (2) A 2-hour rated enclosure (3) Performance alternatives approved by Authority Having Jurisdiction

MAINTENANCE To keep your fire alarm system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per the manufacturer’s recommendations and UL and NFPA Standards, and applicable state and local codes. At a minimum, the requirements of Chapter 7 of NFPA, the National Fire Alarm Code, shall be followed. A preventative maintenance agreement should be arranged through the manufacturer’s local representative. Though smoke detectors are designed for long life, they may fail at any time. Any smoke detector, fire alarm system, or any component of that system shall be repaired or replaced immediately.

SYSTEM RE-ACCEPTANCE TEST To ensure proper system operation, this product must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72, Chapter 7. Re-acceptance testing is required after any modification, repair, or adjustment to system hardware, wiring, or programming. All components, circuits, or system operations 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. 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 the control panel. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS The equipment was tested according to EC directive 89/336/EEC for Class A equipment and was verified to the limits and methods of EN 55022. FCC WARNING: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with this instruction manual, may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class A computing devices pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which is designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. If these instructions are not clear, or if additional information or clarification is needed, please consult your local authorized Fire Control Instruments, Inc. distributor. Because of design changes and product improvements, the information in this manual will be subject to change without notice. FCI reserves the right to change hardware and/or software design, which may subsequently affect the contents of this manual. FCI assumes no responsibility for any errors that may appear in this manual. Neither this manual nor any part of it may be reproduced without the advance written permission of Fire Control Instruments, Inc. LIMITATIONS OF FIRE ALARM SYSTEMS FCI recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors be located throughout the protected premises following the recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association Standard 72, the National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72), manufacturer’s recommendations, State and local codes, and the recommendations contained in the Guide for the 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 States government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go into alarm or give early warning in as many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to provide warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or protection against fire. Any alarm system is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:

• Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may not reach the sensing chambers of a smoke detector because:

- Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, or chimneys may inhibit air flow. - Smoke particles may become “cold” and stratify, and may 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.

In general, smoke detectors on one level of a structure cannot be expected to sense fires developing on another level.

• 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 earlier than flaming fires, which have little visible smoke. Detectors that have ionization-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast flaming fires earlier 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 are subject to unwanted or nuisance alarms. For example, a smoke detector located in or near a kitchen may go into nuisance alarm during normal operation of kitchen appliances. In addition, dusty or steamy environments may cause a smoke detector to alarm unnecessarily. If the location of a smoke detector causes an abundance of unwanted or nuisance alarms, do not disconnect the smoke detector; call a professional to analyze the situation and recommend a solution.

• Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning of a fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially in bedrooms), smoking in bed, violent explosions (caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

• Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and are designed to alarm only when heat on their sensors increase at a predetermined rate or reaches a predetermined level. Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.

• Warning devices (including horns, sirens, bells, and speakers) may not alert people or awaken sleepers who are located on the other side of closed or partially open doors. A warning device that activates on a different floor or level of a dwelling or structure is less likely to awaken or alert people. Even persons who are awake may not notice the warning if the alarm is muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Audible warning devices may not alert the hearing-impaired (strobes or other devices should be provided to warn these people). Any warning device may fail to alert people with a disability, deep sleepers, people who have recently used alcohol or drugs, or people on medication or sleeping pills.

Please note that:

1) Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in people with conditions such as epilepsy.

2) 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 exercises to make people aware of the fire alarm signals and instruct on the proper reaction to alarm signals.

3) In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause temporary or permanent hearing loss.

• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central station may be out of service or temporarily out of service. For added protection against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are recommended.

• System components, though designed to last many years, can fail at any time. As a precautionary measure, it is recommended that smoke detectors be checked, maintained, and replaced per manufacturer’s recommendations.

• System components will not work without electrical power. If system batteries are not serviced or replaced regularly, they may not provide adequate standby when AC power fails.

• Environments with high air velocity or that are dusty or dirty require more frequent maintenance.

In general, fire alarm systems and devices will not work without power and will not function properly unless they are maintained and tested regularly. While installing a fire alarm system may make the owner eligible for a lower insurance rate, a fire alarm system is not a substitute for insurance. Property owners should continue to act prudently in protecting the premises and the people on the premises and should properly insure life and property and buy sufficient amounts of liability insurance to meet their needs.

2.5 NetSOLO® Broadband Intelligent Network Command Center Assembly (INCC-C)

General The INCC-C Intelligent Network Command Center uses a modular approach. Consequently, the contents of an INCC-C assembly will vary depending upon the project's specific requirements. It occupies one node on the NetSOLO network. At a minimum, an INCC-C assembly must include one INI-VGE sub-assembly, one ASM-16 switch sub-assembly, one NetSOLO® back box, one INCC inner door, and one INCC outer full-Plexiglas door. The standard INCC inner door provides six bays to accommodate up to six ASM-16, NGA, or ANU-48 sub-assemblies. Each INI-VGE can support up to 6 ASM-16, NGA, or ANU-48 sub-assemblies. The additional sub-assemblies can be mounted in extra NetSOLO® back boxes. Unused bays can be covered with blank faceplates. An optional voice-paging microphone assembly occupies one standard bay in place of an ASM-16. An optional fire fighter's telephone handset assembly occupies two standard bays and requires the use of the INCC-T inner door, which combines two bays to accommodate the telephone assembly. See Figure 2-4 below.

2.5.1 Intelligent Network Interface (INI-VGE Series)

Unpack the INI-VGE sub-assembly from its shipping carton and remove it from its anti-static bag. Locate the six mounting standoffs at the top center of the INCC-E back box. Use the six screws provided to secure the sub-assembly to the back box at each corner, top center, and bottom center. Orient the sub-assembly so that the component side is facing up, the four ST fiber optic cables are positioned to the lower left, and the four 4-pin terminal blocks run down the right side of the board. Refer to the Installation Instructions for this sub-assembly, P/N 9000-0549.

2.5.2 Inner Door (INCC)

Unpack the INCC Inner Door from its shipping carton. The INCC Inner Door is used with the ASM-16/NGA/ANU-48 sub-assemblies and the microphone. The INCC-T Inner Door is used when the system's configuration includes a fire fighter's telephone assembly. Locate the two hinge pins in the upper and lower left corners of the INCC-E back box. Place the nylon spacer provided over the lower left-hand hinge pin. Orient the door so that the two captured thumb screws and cam lock hole are to the right, and the two hinge pin mounting holes are to the left. Slide the upper hinge pin of the INCC-E through the upper hinge pin mounting hole. Continue to lift the door until it clears the INCC-E lower hinge pin. Swing the door in until the lower hinge pin mounting hole is aligned with the INCC-E lower hinge pin. Allow the door to drop down over the INCC-E lower hinge pin to complete the installation. See Figure 2-5 below. Once the sub-assemblies, the Microphone assembly, and Fire Fighter's Handset assembly are mounted to the back of the Inner Door, use the thumb screws to the right to secure the whole assembly to the INCC-E back box. Refer to the Installation Instructions for this enclosure, P/N 9000-0546.

2.5.3 Addressable Switch Sub-assembly (ASM-16)

Unpack the ASM-16 sub-assembly from its shipping carton. For new installations, temporarily remove the INCC Inner Door from the INCC-E back box and place it face down on a flat surface. We recommend that the switch label be prepared and inserted between the ASM-16 face plate overlay and the back plate at this time. Any subsequent alterations to the switch labels will require the ASM-16 be removed from the Inner Door assembly to gain access to the label. Place the ASM-16 assembly in position in the desired location in the Inner Door. Fasten the assembly in place by installing a Kep nut over the mounting studs located at each corner. Do not tighten the nuts until all adjacent assemblies have been set in place. Refer to the Installation Instructions for this sub-assembly, P/N 9000-0550. Plug the RS-485 interconnect ribbon cable into the INI-VGE sub-assembly Connector J3. Plug the other end into J2 of the first ASM-16. Continue the RS-485 bus between each additional ASM-16 as needed. Extend the RS-485 bus as needed to sub-assemblies in adjoining expansion cabinets by wiring between Terminal Block TB1 from the last ASM-16 sub-assembly in the first cabinet and Terminal Block TB1 in the first ASM-16 sub-assembly in the next cabinet.

B) INI-7100 FO The INI-7100 FO adds four (4) standard ST connectors for fiber optic cable while retaining the ability to accommodate copper wire. Connecting the INI-7100 sub-assemblies in consecutive order of addressing allows the fastest network communication. No star configurations or T-tapping on the NetSOLO® network is permitted. Figure 3-4 illustrates a typical fiber optic network. Consult Table 3-3 for specific fiber optic cable connections between nodes.

Table 3-3 Fiber Optic Connections: INI-7100 FO INI-7100 Connector J1 (TX1) to Next INI-7100 Connector J7 (RX2) or Network Node INI-7100 Connector J4 (RX1) to Next INI-7100 Connector J6 (TX2) or Network Node Fiber optic cable specifications: Up to 200 microns (optimized for 62.5 / 125 microns), Standard ST Connectors Up to 8 dB loss max. between nodes

The INI-7100 FO can accommodate both fiber optic cable connections and copper wire as shown above. This is useful for applications where the NetSOLO® network covers multiple buildings. NetSOLO® wiring within a building can be run on copper wire. Connections between buildings can be run on fiber optic cable for best protection against transients and ground fault conditions. See Figure 3-5 for an example of a network using both types of connections.

3.1.3 INI-7100 Addressing INI-7100 Switch SW-1 is an 8-position DIP switch used to address each sub-assembly in the network. Each position is set to ON to represent a binary zero or OFF to equal a binary One. Do not duplicate addresses. Fastest network communication is achieved when nodes are addressed in consecutive order. For ease of installation, set the INI-7100 to its network address before mounting it in the 7100 NetSOLO® cabinet. Table 3-4 illustrates the switch settings for all addresses. (NOTE: SW-1 is oriented upside down when the unit is installed in the 7100 NetSOLO® assembly).

3.3 AA-100 and AA-120 Power Amplifiers

A) AA-100 Audio Amplifier The AA-100 audio amplifier provides up to 100 watts of power. Two outputs are provided, one at 70.7 VRMS and the other at 25 VRMS. The power taken from these outputs combined must not exceed 100 watts total. A four-wire high level output/return circuit must be employed. Cut R-100 to enable output wiring supervision in the AA-100. Use only the 70.7 V output, which must be supervised. B) AA-120 Audio Amplifier The AA-120audio amplifier provides up to 120 watts of power. Use only the 70.7 V output. The power taken from this output must not exceed 120 watts total. A four-wire high-level output/return circuit must be employed when output wiring supervision is required. Cut R-100 to enable output wiring supervision in the AA-120. C) Trouble Contacts Trouble contacts on the amplifiers close to report problems with audio input wiring, brown out, batteries, output wiring, or the amplifier itself. Trouble contact wiring must not leave the cabinet, and is monitored via an AMM series input monitoring module. D) Backup Amplifiers Only an AA-120 may be used as a backup amplifier for one or more AA-100 and AA-120 amplifiers. In the event of an amplifier failure, backup amplifier switching is automatic. When one backup amplifier is serving multiple primary amplifiers, only one primary amplifier failure will be supported. Individual LEDs signal each source of trouble to aid in troubleshooting. The supervision of the backup amplifier output is done through the four-wire return circuit on the backup amplifier. The high-level backup input on the AA-100 or AA-120 must be 25 VRMS only. Use output wiring supervision whenever high-level audio amplifier output leaves the cabinet. E) Cabinet Mounting The AA-100 and AA-120 mount directly in the DR series cabinets, one amplifier per tier. Primary (AC) and secondary (24V battery) power source connections must be made to each amplifier. Some external listed means of charging the batteries (such as a CHG-120 charger) must be used.

3.3.1 Primary and Secondary Power requirements for the AA-100 and AA-120 Audio Amplifiers Primary power required for the AA-100, and AA-120 Amplifiers is 120VAC. Secondary power (24 VDC battery) connections must be made at the designated terminals shown in Figure 3-13. Secondary power may be obtained from any source of 24 VDC that is Listed for fire alarm signaling and has sufficient alarm and standby capacity (, etc.). Use Table 3-14 to calculate amplifier secondary (battery) power requirements.

3.3.2 Amplifier Connections

Note: The low-level input and high-level output "P" connectors are primarily for in-cabinet applications where the wiring to or from the amplifier remains in the same cabinet. For "multiple-cabinet" applications, hardwire the systems using terminal blocks P3 and P8. When more than one cabinet is required, cabinets must be mounted adjacent to each other and all interconnecting wiring must be installed in conduit. Note: Cut resistor R100 to enable high-level audio output wiring supervision. Output supervision is always required in the AA-100. This option is only required in the AA-120 when output wiring leaves the cabinet. Note: If the amplifier is being used in stand-alone mode (no connection to an INI-VGE) where the backup tone generator is being used, R107 must be cut to prevent the amplifier from generating a trouble condition. The amplifier will indicate trouble within 90 seconds. See Figure 3-13.

Figure 3-13 Amplifier Connections – Upper and lower Boards

NOTE: Connections between amplifiers are supervised against opens, shorts and grounds. However, all these conditions will be displayed as “Power amp. short.”

3.3.3. Adjusting Audio Gain Level A multi-position rotary switch allows the installer to adjust the gain of the audio output signal to compensate for audio line losses. After correct adjustment, the audio amplifier will produce its maximum rated output power. See Figure 3-14 To adjust: After complete installation of all amplifiers and associated circuitry, with the low-level audio input to the amplifier set for normal standby, use a small slotted screwdriver to position the rotary switch until the NORMAL LEVEL LED is lit and the INCORRECT LEVEL LED is off. At this point, the audio gain is properly adjusted. NOTE: Ensure that a 470-ohm impedance matching resistor has been installed on the last amplifier (P3 Terminals 1 and 2). Failure to do so will result in calibration difficulty. Figure 3-14

Section 5.0: Transient Overvoltage Protection

5.1 Routing Of Power-Limited Field Wiring Circuits UL Standard 864, (Control Units for Fire Protective Signaling Systems), requires that a minimum of ¼ inch separation be maintained between power-limited circuits and non power-limited circuits. The control unit is designed so the required separation between these circuits (power-limited vs. non power-limited) is maintained at the field wiring terminals. In order to fully comply with the intent of these requirements, however, the minimum ¼ inch separation must also be maintained between the field wiring conductors of power-limited circuits and non power-limited circuits. This may be accomplished by routing the field wiring as shown in the following diagram. Unless otherwise indicated on the unit, all field wiring circuits are power-limited except:

AC power circuit Standby battery circuit Power supply output Municipal box (auxiliary) circuit

NOTE: Route all field wiring to maintain a minimum of 1/4 inch separation between power-limited and non power-limited circuit types. Additional conduit connections may be made in the respective power-limited and non power- limited areas of the enclosure if needed to maintain this required minimum separation.
