CAUTIONS 1. BATTERY MAINTENANCE INSTALLATION CAUTIONS Initial preparation before installation:- Verify no abnormalities on battery case (like crack or leakage) Free air space must be provided between each battery. Recommended minimum space is 5~10mm (0.02~0.04 inches). Set the batteries firmly in the equipment. Otherwise, batteries may be damaged, or connection conductivity may be decreased due to shock.
A comprehensive range of ancillary devices is available to operate with MA-1000, including Optical, Ionization, photo-thermal and heat detectors. Each of the MA-1000 system components has been specifically designed to operate as part of a MA-1000 system, this provides an assurance that the panel, the detectors, the interfaces and the ancillaries are all fully compatible with one another and that the full range of system functionality is supported by each device.
Larger batteries require a separate Battery Cabinet MBC “Mini Battery Cabinet” manufactured by space age. SLC Circuits The MA-1000 Panel comes with two SLCs loops (optional 4 SLC loop card) which has the following parameters: Supply voltage: 24 VDC nominal, 27.6 VDC maximum.
Page 9
The NAC provide the following programmable modes: NAC Steady – 24 VDC at alarm condition NAC Temporal Code – 24 VDC at alarm condition (on, off, on, off) NAC March Time – 24 VDC at alarm condition (on, on, off, off, on, on, off, off) Synchronization - Cooper Wheelock DSM-12/24 p/n 06.012 is for per NAC MAX 20 devices can be connected.
1.3 Controls and Indicators Front Panel Membrane User Buttons Acknowledge This function, also abbreviated to "ACK", is used to acknowledge an abnormal situation such as an alarm or trouble condition. The acknowledge function tells the panel that building personnel or emergency responders are aware of the alarm, trouble, or supervisory condition.
Page 11
SILENCE Yellow LED Also known as "audible silence". Depending on the configuration of the alarm system, this function will either silence the system's notification appliances completely, or will silence only the audible alarm, with strobe lights continuing to flash. Audible silence allows for easier communication amongst emergency responders while responding to an alarm.

Appendix to this manual. A full system checkout must be performed every time the panel is programmed. The MA-1000 range of analog fire alarm control panels are designed in accordance UL864 9 Fire Detection and Fire Alarm systems Control and Indicating Equipment.
Follow the steps below to determine the current draw and standby battery requirements. Appendix B—MA-1000 Current Draw/Battery Backup lists the standby and alarm current draw for the panel. Total standby and alarm Current is determined by multiplying the quantity of items by its current draw.
2.4 Mounting the Enclosure Install the Enclosure as follows: 1. Carefully unpack the system components and inspect for any damage due to shipping. 2. Mount the enclosure in a clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temperatures are not encountered. The location should be readily accessible with sufficient room for easy installation and maintenance.
2.4.1 Connecting the AC Power WARNING! To reduce the risk of electrical shock, make sure that all power has been turned off or disconnected prior to attempting to connect power to the Power Supply. Apply the AC Power BEFORE connecting the batteries to the Panel! Provide the Fire Alarm Control Panel with a dedicated AC Circuit rated 15 Amps.
The batteries are placed at the bottom of the enclosure by removing the four nuts holding the battery plate. The MA-1000 is fully protected if the batteries are connected in the opposite direction the battery fault yellow led will show steady in such a condition. When green battery LED is in a steady...

Scan devices scans the loop for Pre-Programmed points used with the FS100 hand- held programmer. Which was designed to program addresses of detectors & Interfaces used with the MA-1000 fire panel? Although this programmer is not required to program the detectors/interfaces, many installers find it easy and more convenient than the standard empty base to the control panel programming method.
3.2.2.2 One Man Walk Test Walk test mode allows a single engineer to test the various detectors and call points on a system without always having to return to the panel either to reset the system or silence the alarms. When in WALK TEST MODE, the system operates as normal except that when a detector or call point goes into alarm, the alarms only operate for a few seconds and then will silence.
