Section 5: Installation, Configuration, and Programming
This section provides an overview of installation procedures for ACS annunciators. Install annunciators in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70.
Wiring methods used shall be in accordance with the Standard for Installation and Classification of Burglar and Holdup Alarm Systems,
UL 681.
For wiring & programming details that are unique to a specific fire alarm control panel, refer to that panel's appendix in this manual, and to
that panel's programming guide (see Section 1.3, "Related Documentation" for part numbers). Refer to the appendix section if, for example,
you need to locate the terminal block on the control panel to which you would connect a particular ACS circuit.
For operating information, see Section 6, "LED and Keypad Switch Functions" which provides details on LED and switch functions.
5.1 Installation Checklist
1.
Mount and ground the cabinet or backbox (Section 5.3).
2.
Pull wiring into backbox and connect removable terminal blocks to wires (Sections 5.3, 5.5, and 5.9).
3.
Connect shield for EIA-485 circuit (Section 5.6).
4.
Connect Earth Ground to a mounting screw on the backbox or cabinet (Section 5.8).
5.
Place slide-in labels in annunciators and expanders; attach adhesive labels to trim plates (Section 5.10).
6.
Mount keyswitch and/or phone jack onto annunciators (Section 5.11).
7.
Mount and connect annunciators and expanders (Section 5.4).
8.
Configure annunciators for the number of installed expanders (Section 5.12.3).
9.
Set DIP switches & module addresses (Section 5.12).
10. Make all electrical connections:
– EIA-485 circuit & End-of-line resistor (Sections 5.5 and 5.7).
– Power circuit (Section 5.9)
– ACM-16AT, ACM-32A, and expanders only: Supervising devices (Section 5.14)
11. Attach doors to semi-flush-mount backboxes (Section 5.4).
12. Power up system according to instructions in the control panel manual.
13. Program the control panel (Section 5.15).
