Page 2: Specifications
Overview: The Altronix FireSwitch108 is a cost effective managed NAC Power Extender. It interfaces with 12 or 24VDC Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACP) to provide Notification Appliance Circuit expansion support, for additional horns/strobes to allow ADA compliancy. It also provides auxiliary power to support system accessories. It delivers electronically regu- lated and filtered 24VDC power to Class B or Class A NAC loop circuits. -

Page 12: General Information
FireSwitch Applications: 1. General Information: Altronix FireSwitch units are very versatile devices. They can be used with or without specific synchronization modules provided by some manufacturers. Multiple units can be synchronized by using either the built-in sync mode or a external synchronization module. Please note, that only notification appliances with synchronization capabilities can be synchronized. - Page 13 FireSwitch is designed to follow (replicate) the coded sequence, generated by a manufacturer’s sync module. Up to eleven (11) FireSwitch108 units can be synchronized when interconnected with a host FACP. Connect the output of the FACP module to Input 1 and Input 2 Terminate the input circuit with the EOL (FACP), connecting it to terminals marked [RET+ and RET-], or continue the input circuit, connecting to terminals marked [RET+ and RET-] to [INP+ and INP-] of the next unit, when multiple units need to be triggered.
- Page 14 FireSwitch For continuous loop circuit use 10K EOL, (Altronix Model # AL-EOL10). When connecting, keep wires on different sides of the screw terminals in order to maintain loop integrity supervision. DO NOT LOOP CONTINUOUS WIRE AROUND THE SCREW.
