2.8.6.2.1 Connecting PRN-6F Printer

Remote printers require a primary AC power source. If required for the fire alarm system
configuration (for example, a Proprietary Fire Alarm System), a remote printer requires a
secondary power source (battery backup). Since a secondary power source is not provided as a
standard feature, a separate UL-listed Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) should be used.
The building emergency power supply may be used, as long as it meets the power continuity
requirements of NFPA 72. Refer to NFPA 72 for further details.
Connect the remote printer to the FACP via the ANN-S/PG module using a standard DB-25
cable. One end of the cable will plug into the DB-25 connector on the PRN-6F printer and the
other end plugs into the parallel connector on the ANN-S/PG module. Note that the 9-pin DB-
9 port on the ANN-S/PG is used to connect a serial printer. The 25-pin port is used for a
Centronics parallel printer cable. Connect either a serial or parallel printer, but not both at the
same time.
