Honeywell NOTIFIER NFS-320C Manual

NFS-320C
Intelligent Addressable
Fire Alarm System
General
The NFS-320C intelligent Fire Alarm Control Panel is part of
the ONYX® Series of Fire Alarm Controls from NOTIFIER.
In stand-alone or network configurations, ONYX Series prod-
ucts meet virtually every application requirement.
The NFS-320C's modular design makes system planning eas-
ier. The panel can be configured with just a few devices for
small building applications, or networked with many devices to
protect a large campus or a high-rise office block. Simply add
additional peripheral equipment to suit the application. For
example, certain geographic regions such as Canada have
specific LED annunciation requirements. To provide up to 48
zones/points in the same cabinet, add an optional ACM Series
annunciator (sold separately).
