Installation Precautions Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability: Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to sources of power before servicing.
Section One: Annunciators Fire•Lite annunciator modules provide the Sensiscan 2000 with up to 32 remote serially connected annunciators, each with a capacity of 64 points. The annunciator modules provide arrays of LEDs to indicate, at a remote location, the status of circuits within the system. Annunciator points in a Sensiscan 2000 directly follow the circuit arrangement of modules installed in the cabinet.
AFM- 16ATX. One to three of these expander modules can be supported by an AFM-16ATX, to a maximum of 64 system points. Note: The AEM-16ATF cannot be used to expand the AFM-32AX.

ABS-1F The Annunciator Surface Box-1F provides for the remote mount- ing of a single AFM-16ATX or AFM-32AX annunciator in a surface- mount enclosure. Knockouts are provided for use with 1/2" con- duit. The annunciator mounts directly to the ABS-1F without a dress plate.

AKS-1F The Annunciator Key Switch-1F provides access security for the control switches on the AFM-16ATX. The key switch kit includes a key and hardware for mounting to the trim plate of one of the flush-mount type annunciator enclosures. Also included is an adhesive-backed Annunciator Label for use with the key switch/ dress plate assembly.
Section Three: Design Considerations Limits Up to 32 annunciators may be installed on an EIA-485 circuit. The actual number of annunciator modules may be larger depending on the number of expander modules employed. Wire Runs Communication between the Control Panel and the annunciator is accomplished over a power-limited two-wire EIA-485 serial interface.

Receive Only Annunciators For redundant annunciation of system points, annunciators can be configured as "Receive Only" annunciators. Receive Only annunciators are not fully supervisable. Receive Only annunciators intercept information being transmitted to a "Receive/ Transmit" annunciator so that information can be duplicated at an intermediate display location.

Current Draw from 24 volt DC Input: Standby Alarm AFM-16ATX/AFM-32AX 0.040 amps 0.056 amps AEM-16ATF/AEM-32AF 0.002 amps 0.018 amps Data Communications Port: EIA-485 operating at 20 Kbaud (power-limited). Annunciator Power Requirements Annunciators draw their power from the control panel and must be considered when calculating the primary and secondary power supply requirements for the system.

Insert the custom display labels into the annunciator and expanders (see Figure 3). Set the dip switches on the AFM-32AX or AFM-16ATX annunciator as outlined in Section Six. Turn the dress plate over and place down on a surface with the threaded studs facing up.

Completing installation in a cabinet or an ABF-4F Plug the two annunciator terminal blocks into the AFM-16ATX or the first AFM-32AX. Place the annunciator/dress plate assembly into the cabinet or ABF-4F backbox. Secure the assembly with the screws provided.
Figure 1: Installing the Enclosure Mount the backbox or cabinet and pull all annun- ciator wiring into the enclosure. Enclosure Annunciator Figure 2: Terminating the Shield The EIA-485 circuit must be wired using a twisted-shielded pair cable having a Charac- teristic Impedance of 120 ohms, +/- 20%.

Remove center pages for Slide-In Labels AFM-16ATX/AEM-16ATF Labels Two labels are required for the AFM-16ATX/AEM-16ATF - one for the left-hand side and one for the right-hand side of each module. Each label has a distinctive format. Set A Factory-printed zone labels: These slide-in annunciator labels provide for alarm zones 1 through 56.

Remove center pages for Slide-In Labels AFM-32AX/AEM-32AF Labels Two labels are required for the AFM-32AX/AEM-32AF - one for the left-hand side and one for the right-hand side of the face plate. Each label has a distinctive format. Set E Factory-printed zone labels: These slide-in annunciator labels provide for alarm zones 1 through 32.
Figure 3: Slide-In Labels Remove the center pages of this manual. If using the custom user display labels, type the appropriate information on the labels. Carefully cut out the labels and insert them into the annunciator by slipping them into the label slots on the back side of the annunciator face plate.
Figure 5: Mounting the Trim Ring Position the annunciator over the threaded studs on the dress plate and secure with two nuts and lock washers provided. Dress Plate Figure 6: Applying the Annunciator Label Remove backing from adhesive-backed Annunciator Label and affix the label to the bottom of the dress plate as illustrated.
Figure 7: Annunciator Options If employing an Annunciator Key Switch (AKS- 1F), mount the switch to the dress plate (ABF-1F Dress Plate illustrated below). Plug the switch leads from the AKS-1F into Connector J4 on the annunciator. ABF-1F (back view) 15390 Rev D 8/2/96 P/N 15390:D...
Figure 8: Main Power Supply Connections The annunciator can be powered by an MPS-24AF or an MPS-24BF. The power run to the annunciator need not contain a Power Supervision Relay since loss of power is inherently supervised through communication loss. MPS-24AF Main Power Supply Connect the power run for the AFM to MPS-24AF TB3 Terminals 1 (+) and 2 (-) (1 amp max).
This switch serves two purposes: Switch 1) When pressed, it first lights all the LEDs on the AFM-16ATX (except the On Line LED) and then each expander and also sounds the piezo (pro- vided it hasn't been disabled) for as long as the switch is held down.
Figure 10: Operating the AEM-16ATF Lamp Test Switch When pressed, it lights all the LEDs on the AEM- 16ATF expander (except the On Line LED). These LEDs are not functional on expanders. Control Switch Functions as a local Lamp Test for the two LEDs dedicated to this point.
Figure 11: Operating the AFM-32AX This switch serves two purposes: 1) When pressed, it first lights all the LEDs on the Local Silence/Acknowledge annunciator (except the On Line LED) then on the Switch expander and also sounds the piezo (provided it hasn't been disabled) for as long as the switch is held down.

Section Six: Annunciators and the Sensiscan 2000 Capabilities When installed with a Sensiscan 2000, an annunciator can annunciate the status of initiating and notification circuits, relays, and several system control functions. Each annunciator LED is automatically assigned to one and only one system point: Circuits: IZ-8F, IZ-4F Initiating Device Circuits (alarm and trouble) IC-4F/ICE-4F Notification Appliance Circuits (trouble)*...

Installing Modules in the Sensiscan 2000: The annunciator begins annunciation with the CPU and continues with the annunciation of circuits on the module installed directly after the CPU. To ensure full employment of annunciator points, mount Sensiscan 2000 modules that require annunciation in the CPU row first, then in the second row, etc.
