Panel Programming Requirements

Software Type ID Codes

The ACPS-2406 points must be programmed at the FACP with Software Type ID codes. Refer to
the panel programming manual for specific Software Type ID codes. Table 3.9 below gives general
categories of codes that may be used for the AFP-100, AFP-200, AFP-300/400, AFC-600,
AM2020/AFP-1010 FACPs.
Table 3.10 below categorizes codes used with the NFS FACPs.

Dual Stage Alert/Evacuation

Dual Stage Alert/Evacuation is a mode option for use in Canada only, with the NFS-3030,
NFS-640, or AM2020/AFP1010. In this mode each output circuit operates in one of two stages:
alert or evacuation. The alert stage generates a pulsing output of 20 pulses per minute: the
evacuation stage generates a pulsing output of the NFPA Temporal Pattern.

Selecting Dual Stage Mode

Dual Stage is selected by setting ACPS-2406 switches SW3.7 to ON and SW3.8 to OFF.
ACPS-2406 Dual Stage output circuits must be set to the coded NAC option (See Table 3.1 for
settings)

Addressing in Dual Stage Mode

When the ACPS-2406 is set to Dual Stage, each output circuit uses two control addresses, even if
the circuit is not configured for Dual Stage (i.e., not a coded NAC). The installer should ascertain
that an appropriate block of consecutive FACP addresses is available prior to addressing an ACPS-
2406 in Dual Stage. Refer to Table 3.6 and Table 3.7 for information on ACPS-2406 Dual Stage
addressing and address consumption.
The first address for each output does one of three things.
1. If the output is a coded NAC, activating the first associated address activates Stage 1 (alert).
2. If the output is a non-coded NAC, activating the first associated address turns the output on.
3. If the output is a +24V relay, activating the first associated address turns off the 24V source for
this output.
The second address for each output does the following.
1. If the output is a coded NAC, activating the second associated address activates Stage 2
(evacuation). Note that the first address must also be activated.
2. If the output is a non-coded NAC, activating the second associated address has no effect, but
the address must be in communication with the panel.
