Connection To Fire Alarm Control Panel - Honeywell X-618 Installation Manual

Connecting External Power Supply
X-NPMI and X-NPMS can be powered by external equipment, such as X-DCS2000 and X-
DCS3000. Insert one end of the power supply adapter into the NPM power supply input port, and
connect the other end of the power supply adapter cable to the power supply equipment.
Figure 25 DC Output Schematic Diagram of X-NPMI and X-DCS2000/EN Connection
Connecting POE Power Supply
X-NPMS can be powered by POE. Use twisted pair cables to connect X-NPMS with POE switcher.
There is no need to connect to power supply cables or power adapter.
Caution!
When X-NPMS is connected to many key extend modules and powered by POE, we recommend
to use POE switcher, which support IEEE802.3 to satisfy the power supply needs.

Connection to Fire Alarm Control Panel

X-618 system can be connected with fire alarm control panel by dry contact or LPI-Modbus. Dry
contact is used for third party FAS without any protocol, LPI-ModBus is only used for Notifier's fire
alarm control panel. Here we introduce LPI-ModBus mostly.
Either DCS or NRI can be connected with FAS through LPI-ModBus module, to realize the fire
alarm broadcasting function. This connection mode, that DCS is directly connected with the FAS
through LPI-ModBus module, is more suitable for the situation that the devices are concentratedly
positioned. The reason is: Because the devices has to connect with each other by RS-485, the
limited distance RS-485 bus, when the equipment adopts distributed installation, using this method
can lead to difficult wiring. If NRI is connected with FAS through LPI-ModBus module, can satisfy
the application demands in the distributed system. Only make sure NRI and DCS are in the same
network. NRI can receive the fire alarm signal automatically, and trigger DCS emergency
broadcast according to the linkages which are set in the Config software. This method can realize
flexible linkage alarm function, and support 2 types emergency broadcast: evacuation and alert.
X-618 system can be connected with Notifier's fire alarm control panel, and be compatible with:
