  • Page 10: Introduction To Truealert

    Introduction to TrueAlert Overview TrueAlert notification appliance operation provides power, control, and supervision of horns and strobes over a single pair of wires. The controlling TrueAlert channel digitally communicates with each appliance and receives a response to verify the appliance’s presence on the channel. When required, the TrueAlert channel provides a digital command to control appliance operation.

    Wiring Diagram 842-158). The Simplex 4100 or 4020 FACPs can interface to the TrueAlert Addressable Controller via a Remote Unit Interface (RUI). Diagnostic features are enabled and disabled through the front panel user interface. The quantity of TrueAlert Addressable Controllers that can be used is limited only by the number of card addresses available (out of the total of 119).
  • Page 12 The 4009 TrueAlert Addressable Controller, Continued Overview, continued The Hardwired NAC Interface uses two conventional NACs from the host FACP. One NAC is used to enable operation of the strobe appliances (so that they are On Until Silenced), and a second NAC is used to enable operation of the horn appliances (so that they are On Until Reset).

  • Page 13: Control Types

    TrueAlert Control activate the appliances connected to the Addressable Controller. The hardwired NAC control inputs provide backward compatibility with other Simplex panels. In the hardwired mode, the configuration of the Addressable Controller is configured via two DIP switches (Hardware Configuration Switch (SW4) and Address/Software Configuration Switch (SW5)). Each input (called Hardwire Control Channel 1 and Channel 2, respectively, on TB7) simulates a typical hardwired notification appliance, as seen from the host panel.
