The AFM/AEM-16AT annunciators display zone alarm and trouble status. In addition, they provide remote Acknowledge, Silence, Reset and Drill functions. The AFM Series Annunciators require the use of the LED-10IM Interface Module. For more detailed information, refer to the appropriate AFM Annunciator manual.
  • Page 15 (expander modules are not required when interfacing to the MS-2410BC). The LDM-32F and LDM-E32F have output connectors which are used to drive lamps or LEDs and input connectors which are used for remote switch functions. The LDM Series requires the use of the LED-10IM Interface Module.
  • Page 16 Optional Accessories One of the most common applications for the FCPS-24F remote power supply utilizes the NAC expander mode. In this application, one or two Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) are connected from the main FACP NAC output(s) to the remote power supply Control Input circuits. When these Control Input circuits activate (due to reverse polarity of the NAC output), the power supply will activate its corresponding outputs.
