UL 8th Edition Panel Applications AFP-200 Auto-Acknowledge A Network Adaptor Module (NAM) connected to an AFP-300/AFP-400 will auto-acknowledge an event on the panel. The panel then shows the event as acknowledged, and this event can not be acknowledged again at the panel since it has already been acknowledged locally. The NCA-2 or another display node must be used for acknowledgement.
Appendix G: Logic Equations G.1 Equations Logic Equations can define complex relationships between input and output devices. The NCA-2 supports up to 1000 Logic Equations, each designated with a Logic Zone number of ZL1 through ZL1000. Equations will always begin with a logic function. The function set is listed below. Equations will be a maximum of 80 characters long, including parentheses and commas.
Page 205
Logic Equations Equations • The “OR” Operator Requires that any argument be active Example: OR(N01Z02,N02Z05,N01L2D12) If any one of the three arguments in the equation is active the logic zone will be activated. • The “NOT” Operator Inverts the state of the argument (activated to deactivated OR deactivated to activated). Example: NOT(N01Z02) The logic zone will remain activated until the argument activates.
Equations Logic Equations • The “SEC(point argument)” Operator Requires that the point argument be in an active security alarm state for the operator to go active. Example: AND(N01L1M1,SEC(N01L1M2)) The module at address N01L1M1 must be active, and the module at address N01L1M2 must be in an active security alarm state, for the equation to go active.
Page 207
Logic Equations Equations • If duration time of zero is entered (00.00.00), the equation will evaluate true when the delay time expires if the argument remains active throughout the delay time period. • If no duration or delay is specified, then the function will follow the input argument, indicating true while it is active and false when it is inactive.
Page 208
Equations Logic Equations Evaluating an Equation To evaluate an equation, start from the innermost part of the equation and work outwards. For this equation to evaluate TRUE and thus turn on any output mapped to it, the following conditions must be met: OR(AND(L1D1,L1D4),AND(L2D6,L2M3,NOT(L2M4)),ANYX(2,L1M13,L1M14,L1M15)) These have...

It is imperative that the installer understand the requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and be familiar with the stan- dards set forth by the following regulatory agencies: • Underwriters Laboratories Standards • NFPA 72 National Fire Alarm Code Before proceeding, the installer should be familiar with the following documents.
Section 1: System Overview The PSE-6 is a 6 amp and the PSE-10 is a 10 amp remote power supply with battery charger. Both models provide ADA compatible strobe synchronization and a filtered 24 VDC output that can be configured to drive five (6 amp model) or seven (10 amp model) Class B NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits).
System Overview Switch SW1 - Ground Fault Detection 1.5 Switch SW1 - Ground Fault Detection The Ground Fault Detection circuit monitors for ground faults. Switch SW1 is located on the lower left section of the power supply cir- cuit board. Sliding SW1 to the left will disable ground fault detection by the power supply. This should only be done if ground faults are being monitored by an FACP connected to the PSE power supply or in a cascading application as shown in Section 2.8 on page 18.
Applications System Overview 1.6 Applications The PSE may be used in a number of different applications. It may be used as a remotely-mounted power supply and battery charger where it can provide up to seven coded or non-coded, synchronized or non-synchronized NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits). Alter- natively, any output can be used as a door holder circuit which will provide a steady 24 VDC output until an alarm condition or AC fail condition causes it to drop to 0 VDC following a selectable delay.
Section 2: Installation Carefully unpack the system and check for shipping damage. Select a location for the cabinet that is in a clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temperatures are not encountered. The area should be readily accessible with sufficient room to easily install and main- tain the power supply.
NAC Circuit Wiring Installation 2.2 NAC Circuit Wiring 2.2.1 Class B The standard configuration for NACs is Class B as shown below. Use Listed ELRs supplied by the FACP or compatible equipment man- ufacturer. 2k-27kΩ ELR Alarm Polarity Shown Horn Strobe Horn Strobe Horn Strobe PSE Circuit Board...
Installation Addressable Module Mounting 2.3 Addressable Module Mounting The PSE has been designed to allow the mounting of an addressable control, relay, or monitor module on the main circuit board inside the power supply cabinet. This allows power to be fed from a PSE output circuit directly to the module, if needed, without running the power wires outside the cabinet.
NEC Power-limited (Class 2) Wiring Requirements Installation 2.4 NEC Power-limited (Class 2) Wiring Requirements Power-limited (Class 2) and non-power-limited circuit wiring must remain separated in the cabinet. All power-limited (Class 2) circuit wiring must remain at least 0.25” away from any non-power-limited circuit wiring and all power-limited (Class 2) circuit wiring and non-power-limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through different conduits.
Installation FACP with PSE Power Supply in Slave Mode 2.5 FACP with PSE Power Supply in Slave Mode In this application, an PSE power supply, configured as a Slave unit, is connected to a master FACP programmed for synchronized out- put.
Connecting to an External Charger Installation Master mode, Selective Silence - System Sensor Master mode, Selective Silence - Wheelock Use only devices from the same manufacturer in each zone or field of view. Input#1 is mapped to Master mode output in this example, but it can programmed to another input using the DIP switches. Notification appliances cannot be installed on the FACP control circuit connecting to the PSE input circuits.
Installation Cascading Multiple Units 2.8 Cascading Multiple Units Up to four PSE power supplies can be cascaded together to provide additional NAC extenders for a system. Maintain separation of power-limited and non-power-limited wiring as shown in Figure 2.6 on page 15. Figures 2.11 and 2.12 show the controlling signal connected to Input 1 of PSE1.
Canadian Applications Installation 2.9 Canadian Applications NOTE: Mass Notification is not for use in Canadian applications. Canadian applications, per ULC, require the following: • The PSE power supply must be used as a Notification Appliance Circuit extender only unless the power outputs are configured as Class A with the ZNAC-PS option card.
Section 3: Programming Options NOTICE TO USERS, INSTALLERS, AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION AND OTHER INVOLVED PARTIES This product incorporates field-programmable software. In order for the product to comply with the requirements in the Standard for Control Units and Accessories for Fire Alarm Systems, UL 864, certain programming features or options must be limited to specific values or not used at all as indicated below: Permitted in Settings...
S1 Global Options DIP Switch Programming Options 3.1 S1 Global Options DIP Switch The following table lists the global control options for the PSE programmable features and the switch settings required to select a partic- ular feature. A detailed description of each feature is presented in the following pages. Refer to Table 3.1 for UL-compliant settings. S1 DIP Switch 1, 2 These switches determine the command input debounce/dejitter setting (Setting applies to ALL inputs)
Programming Options S1 Global Options DIP Switch Command Input #1 Power supply Output circuits can be configured to “follow” a sync pattern that is input to Command Input #1 (TB5), either immediately (Normal Mode), or only after a trigger signal (Sync Input Mode) is applied at Command Input #2 (TB6). In Sync Input Mode an output circuit will only output the Command Input #1 sync pattern when Command Input #2 is receiving a valid (9V - 32V) trigger signal.
Output Circuit Control DIP Switch Settings Programming Options Display Trouble History Normal Table 3.6 Operating Mode 3.2 Output Circuit Control DIP Switch Settings Each output circuit has its own programming DIP switch. DIP switches S2-S8 are labeled on the PCB to indicate which output circuit it is controlling.
Programming Options Output Circuit Control DIP Switch Settings NAC will activate when input #3 activates. (Input #3 is only available on the PSE-10 model. If selected on PSE-6, this setting will default to input #2.) NAC will activate when any input (1, 2, or 3) activates. Table 3.8 NAC Activation Settings Unused Outputs The factory default setting for all output circuits is “unused/unsupervised”...
Programming Options Output Circuit Control DIP Switch Settings Class A Wiring NAC circuits (all outputs) and aux power circuits (outputs 1 and 2) can be converted to Class A wiring using the ZNAC-PS option card. Setting DIP switch position 7=ON when a selected output circuit is configured for Class A wiring. The default setting is OFF for Class B wiring.
Section 4: LED Indicators The PSE power supply has 3 system LED indicators for Power, Batt/Chgr Fault, and Ground Fault. In addition, each available output cir- cuit also has 2 status LEDs. Refer to Figure 1.1 on page 10 for LED locations. A description of each PSE LED indication is given below. Ground Fault LED (yellow) No Fault LED is OFF...

Section 5: Trouble Supervision The FACP will detect PSE power supply faults. Any of the following conditions will cause the trouble contact to open, provided the FACP Notification Appliance Circuit is not in alarm. 5.1 Trouble Supervision Using Input Circuits The FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) supervises the connection between itself and the PSE via the control panel’s NAC End-of-Line Resistor (ELR).
Trouble Supervision Ground Fault Relay (Canadian Applications Only) 5.4 Ground Fault Relay (Canadian Applications Only) The PSE-6/10C power supply has a form-C trouble relay located at TB3. The contacts can be monitored by an FACP input circuit or an addressable monitor module similar to the drawing illustrated in Figure 5.1. Ground fault conditions will cause the relay to change states regardless of whether the panel is in alarm or standby.
Section 6: Power Supply Requirements 6.1 Overview This section contains instructions and tables for calculating power supply currents in alarm and standby conditions. This is a four-step process, consisting of the following: Calculating the total amount of AC branch circuit current required to operate the system Calculating the power supply load current for non-fire and fire alarm conditions and calculating the secondary (battery) load Calculating the size of batteries required to support the system if an AC power loss occurs Selecting the proper batteries for your system...
Power Supply Requirements Selecting and Locating Batteries 6.3.2 How to Calculate System Current Draw Use Table 6.3 on page 32 to calculate current draws as follows: Enter the quantity of devices in both columns. Enter the current draw where required. Refer to the Notifier Device Compatibility Document for compatible devices and their current draws.
6.4.2 Maximum Battery Standby Load Tables 6.4 and 6.5 show the standby load calculations for the power supply based on 24 hours of standby. The standby load calculations in the Table 6.3 must be less than the number shown in Tables 6.4 and 6.5 for the selected battery size, standby hour and alarm time.

It is imperative that the installer understand the requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and be familiar with the stan- dards set forth by the following regulatory agencies: • Underwriters Laboratories Standards • NFPA 72 National Fire Alarm Code Before proceeding, the installer should be familiar with the following documents.
Section 1: System Overview The PSE-6 is a 6 amp and the PSE-10 is a 10 amp remote power supply with battery charger. Both models provide ADA compatible strobe synchronization and a filtered 24 VDC output that can be configured to drive five (6 amp model) or seven (10 amp model) Class B NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits).
System Overview Switch SW1 - Ground Fault Detection 1.5 Switch SW1 - Ground Fault Detection The Ground Fault Detection circuit monitors for ground faults. Switch SW1 is located on the lower left section of the power supply cir- cuit board. Sliding SW1 to the left will disable ground fault detection by the power supply. This should only be done if ground faults are being monitored by an FACP connected to the PSE power supply or in a cascading application as shown in Section 2.8 on page 18.
Applications System Overview 1.6 Applications The PSE may be used in a number of different applications. It may be used as a remotely-mounted power supply and battery charger where it can provide up to seven coded or non-coded, synchronized or non-synchronized NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits). Alter- natively, any output can be used as a door holder circuit which will provide a steady 24 VDC output until an alarm condition or AC fail condition causes it to drop to 0 VDC following a selectable delay.
Section 2: Installation Carefully unpack the system and check for shipping damage. Select a location for the cabinet that is in a clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temperatures are not encountered. The area should be readily accessible with sufficient room to easily install and main- tain the power supply.
NAC Circuit Wiring Installation 2.2 NAC Circuit Wiring 2.2.1 Class B The standard configuration for NACs is Class B as shown below. Use Listed ELRs supplied by the FACP or compatible equipment man- ufacturer. 2k-27kΩ ELR Alarm Polarity Shown Horn Strobe Horn Strobe Horn Strobe PSE Circuit Board...
Installation Addressable Module Mounting 2.3 Addressable Module Mounting The PSE has been designed to allow the mounting of an addressable control, relay, or monitor module on the main circuit board inside the power supply cabinet. This allows power to be fed from a PSE output circuit directly to the module, if needed, without running the power wires outside the cabinet.
NEC Power-limited (Class 2) Wiring Requirements Installation 2.4 NEC Power-limited (Class 2) Wiring Requirements Power-limited (Class 2) and non-power-limited circuit wiring must remain separated in the cabinet. All power-limited (Class 2) circuit wiring must remain at least 0.25” away from any non-power-limited circuit wiring and all power-limited (Class 2) circuit wiring and non-power-limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through different conduits.
Installation FACP with PSE Power Supply in Slave Mode 2.5 FACP with PSE Power Supply in Slave Mode In this application, an PSE power supply, configured as a Slave unit, is connected to a master FACP programmed for synchronized out- put.
Connecting to an External Charger Installation Master mode, Selective Silence - System Sensor Master mode, Selective Silence - Wheelock Use only devices from the same manufacturer in each zone or field of view. Input#1 is mapped to Master mode output in this example, but it can programmed to another input using the DIP switches. Notification appliances cannot be installed on the FACP control circuit connecting to the PSE input circuits.
Installation Cascading Multiple Units 2.8 Cascading Multiple Units Up to four PSE power supplies can be cascaded together to provide additional NAC extenders for a system. Maintain separation of power-limited and non-power-limited wiring as shown in Figure 2.6 on page 15. Figures 2.11 and 2.12 show the controlling signal connected to Input 1 of PSE1.
Canadian Applications Installation 2.9 Canadian Applications NOTE: Mass Notification is not for use in Canadian applications. Canadian applications, per ULC, require the following: • The PSE power supply must be used as a Notification Appliance Circuit extender only unless the power outputs are configured as Class A with the ZNAC-PS option card.

Section 5: Trouble Supervision The FACP will detect PSE power supply faults. Any of the following conditions will cause the trouble contact to open, provided the FACP Notification Appliance Circuit is not in alarm. 5.1 Trouble Supervision Using Input Circuits The FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) supervises the connection between itself and the PSE via the control panel’s NAC End-of-Line Resistor (ELR).
Trouble Supervision Ground Fault Relay (Canadian Applications Only) 5.4 Ground Fault Relay (Canadian Applications Only) The PSE-6/10C power supply has a form-C trouble relay located at TB3. The contacts can be monitored by an FACP input circuit or an addressable monitor module similar to the drawing illustrated in Figure 5.1. Ground fault conditions will cause the relay to change states regardless of whether the panel is in alarm or standby.
Section 6: Power Supply Requirements 6.1 Overview This section contains instructions and tables for calculating power supply currents in alarm and standby conditions. This is a four-step process, consisting of the following: Calculating the total amount of AC branch circuit current required to operate the system Calculating the power supply load current for non-fire and fire alarm conditions and calculating the secondary (battery) load Calculating the size of batteries required to support the system if an AC power loss occurs Selecting the proper batteries for your system...
