INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this document is to help installers and technicians
connect, commission and check out a FAAST LT system in the
field.
It includes information on wiring and setting up, what the indicators
and switches do, the device operating modes and factory default
settings and how to connect a unit to a PC. It highlights common
mistakes that can be made during an installation and provides a
useful section of dos and don'ts to ensure a successful application.
This document is not a substitute for the comprehensive information
contained in the current installation manual or the advanced setup
and control guide.

WIRING UP A FAAST LT UNIT

Figures 1A and 1B show the terminal connections for FAAST LT
devices. The stand-alone units (FL0111E, FL0112E and FL0122E)
are slightly different from the loop based devices (FL2011E,
FL2012E and FL2022E - Note: Other OEM Brands may use
different model numbers).

Power connections and supervision

The primary 24V power supply to the unit should be connected
to terminals 1 & 2. Terminals 3 & 4 are available for a secondary,
standby power unit if required. Terminals 1 & 2 have supervision
monitoring set as a factory default (terminals 3 & 4 are not
supervised as a default). With default settings, connecting power
to T3 & T4 without connecting T1 & T2 will give a power fault.

Sounder EOLs

The sounder output circuits have supervision monitoring and
should be fitted with 47K EOL resistors. Without the EOL resistors,
the device will give a sounder fault.
