Appendix A
APIC installation
WARNING:
To ensure compatibility, only install the Apollo APIC (9-30430) in
your ModuLaser display module. Incompatible APIC and fire alarm control panel
combinations can result in a non-operational system that may fail to perform
during an alarm event, with resultant loss of life and/or property.
Install an APIC board into a display module as described below to connect the
detector or detector network to a fire alarm control panel.
Connect the addressable loop to the APIC connector on the display backplane
PCB before installing the APIC board.
To install the APIC:
6. Remove the front of the display, and then open the inside cover by pulling the
holding clips outwards (see Figure 27 on page 92).
7. Connect the APIC ribbon cable to the J501 connector on the display PCB,
and then push the APIC board onto the alignment stud.
8. Secure the APIC to the display PCB using 2 x M3 screws.
9. Close the inside cover, and then replace the front of the display.
After installation, configure the APIC functionality from the Device Settings >
Inputs menu (Access Level 3 user or higher).
Notes
Some addressable protocols may limit the maximum number of device
addresses to less than 127.
Some protocols or APIC boards may not support all of the available alarm
levels or event types, and fault reporting is a general fault with no detailed
fault information.
Read the documentation provided with your APIC board for more information.

does a system smoke detector require a box or can I mount it with just a ring

The Edwards ModuLaser system requires a backplane to be fixed to the wall for installation. The detector and display modules are then mounted onto this backplane. This suggests that a simple ring mount is not sufficient for installation.
