Fire Alarm System Limitations While a fire alarm system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for fire insurance! An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, and alarm only when heat on their sensors increases at audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control with a predetermined rate or reaches a predetermined level.

The power run to the annunciator does not require a Power Supervision Relay. Loss of power is inherently supervised through a Communications loss.
NFS-3030 Systems V.5 Configuring Annunciators for NFS-3030 DIP Switch Settings Note: The switch numbers given below are for SW28 on the ACM-24AT and ACM-48A, and for the 8-pin DIP switch on the ACM-16AT and ACM-32A. Address and DIP switches must be set before the annunciator will operate properly.
NFS-3030 Systems V.6 Configurations for Specific Applications The ACS is a vital part of voice alarm applications with the NFS-3030. An ACM-24AT or ACM-16AT allows for manual selection of speaker or telephone circuits and can provide common system annunciation of circuits and logic zones.
NFS-3030 Systems V.6.2 Speaker and Telephone Mode To execute audio functions, use an ACM-24AT or ACM-16AT set to address 1. This annunciator (and any expanders) must be installed adjacent to the AMG-1 and points assigned for AMG control cannot be used for common system annunciation, or for the manual control of circuits and relays.

NFS-3030 Systems When in manual override mode, all points displayed on the ACM-24AT or ACM-16AT and all its expanders will ignore subsequent Control-by-Event (CBE) commands from the panel. Manual Override Mode can be entered by pressing the Manual Override switch on the ACM-24AT or ACM-16AT module (Use special slide-in label).
NFS-3030 Systems V.7 ACS Program Mapping ACS points “track” or follow those system points they are programmed to annunciate; the annunciator points do not latch. Table P-1, which follows, lists how the ACS annunciates various devices and functions. ACM-24AT or ACM-16AT Module and AEM-24AT or AEM-16AT Expanders ACM-48A or ACM-32A Module &...
