ANN-BUS Devices Installation After calculating the total worst case current draw, Table 2.1 specifies the maximum distance the modules can be located from the FACP on a single wire run. The table ensures 6.0 volts of line drop maximum. In general, the wire length is limited by resistance, but for heavier wire gauges, capacitance is the limiting factor.
Installation ANN-BUS Devices Wiring Distance Calculation Example: Suppose a system is configured with the following ANN-BUS modules: • 2 GFANN-80 Remote Fire Annunciators • 1 GFANN-S/PG Serial/Parallel Printer Interface Module • 1 GFANN-I/O LED Driver Module The total worst case current is calculated as follows: GFANN-80 Current Draw = 2 X 0.040 amps = 0.080 amps...

Operating Instructions Disable/Enable Operation 4.10 Disable/Enable Operation Input zones which are disabled do not cause an alarm or any zone activation. Disabled NACs are held in the off state. All disabled zones/NACs are treated as if they were in trouble, with the exception being the status label that will be displayed is DISABL.
Presignal Operating Instructions 4.15 Presignal Presignal option programs an initiating device to delay the activation of NACs while allowing visual verification by a person. Once a detector triggers an alarm, the onboard piezo sounds immediately, but the NACs are not activated for a user programmed time duration of up to three minutes.
Operating Instructions Special System Timers 4.17 Special System Timers 4.17.1 Silence Inhibit Timer This option, if selected, prevents the Alarm Silence key from functioning for 60 seconds following an alarm. A new alarm during the initial 60 second period will not cause the timer to restart with a new 60 seconds.
Walktest Operating Instructions 4.17.5 Alarm Verification (None or One Minute) If alarm verification is selected, a smoke detector activation will cause the FACP to reset the detector by removing power for 6 seconds. Power is reapplied and a 17 second retard period begins which allows all detectors to stabilize.
Operating Instructions Read Status 4.19 Read Status Read Status functions do not require a password. The control panel will continue to provide fire protection while in Read Status mode. This mode can be entered while the control panel is in alarm or trouble.

Read Status Central Station Communications Central Station Communications SECTION 5 The control panel transmits zone and system status reports to Central Stations via the public switched telephone network. Two supervised telephone line connections are made to interface the control panel to the telephone lines. Two optional 7 foot telephone cords are available for this purpose and can be purchased separately.
Central Station Communications Transmittal Priorities 5.1 Transmittal Priorities The integral communicator transmits highest priority events first. Events, in terms of priority, are listed below in descending order: 1. Alarms (highest priority level) Pull stations Waterflow Smoke detector Other alarm types 2.

Power Supply Calculations Overview Power Supply Calculations SECTION 6 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: 1. Calculating the total amount of AC branch circuit current required to operate the system 2.
Calculating the System Current Draw Power Supply Calculations Calculating the System Current Draw 6.3.1 Overview The control panel must be able to power all internal and external devices continuously during the non-fire alarm condition. To calculate the non-fire alarm load on the system power supply when primary power is applied, use Calculation Column 1 in Table 6-3 on page 124.
Page 124
Power Supply Calculations Calculating the System Current Draw Table 6-3 contains three columns for calculating current draws. For each column, calculate the current and enter the total (in amperes) in the bottom row. When finished, copy the totals from Cal- culation Column 2 and Calculation Column 3 to Table 6-4 on page 125.
Calculating the Battery Size Power Supply Calculations Calculating the Battery Size Use Table 6-4 to calculate the total Standby and Alarm load in ampere hours (AH). This total load determines the battery size (in AH), required to support the control panel under the loss of AC power.
