Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of
power can be connected to the fire alarm
control panel. Disconnect all sources of power
before servicing. Control unit and associated
equipment may be damaged by removing and/or
inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting
cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt
to install, service, or operate this unit until
manuals are read and understood.
CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after
Software Changes: To ensure proper system
operation, this product must be tested in
accordance with NFPA 72 after any programming
operation or change in site-specific software. Re-
acceptance testing is required after any change,
addition or deletion of system components, or
after any modification, repair or adjustment to
system hardware or wiring. All components,
circuits, system operations, or software functions
known to be affected by a change must be 100%
tested.
In

operations are not inadvertently affected, at least
10% of initiating devices that are not directly
affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50
devices, must also be tested and proper system
operation verified. Equipment used in the system
may not be technically compatible with the
control panel. It is essential to use only
equipment Listed for service with this control
panel.

FCC Warning: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which is designed
to provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of
this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at the user's expense.
