Altronix AL800ULADA Installation Manual page 2

The Altronix AL800ULADA is an extremely cost effective 8 amp voltage regulated remote power supply/battery charger.
The AL800ULADA may be connected to any 12 or 24 volt Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). Primary applications include
Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) expansion (supports ADA requirements) and will provide auxiliary power to support
system accessories. The unit delivers regulated and filtered 24 or 12 volt power via four (4) Class B, two (2) Class A or two
(2) Class B and one (1) Class A Notification Appliance Circuits. Additionally, a separate 1 amp auxiliary output with reset
for four (4)-wire smoke detectors. The 8 amp rated supply current can be divided between the four (4) outputs for power-
ing notification appliances. Each output is rated at 2 amp max., and can be independently programmed for Steady,
Temporal Code 3 or *Strobe Synchronization. All outputs may be programmed for Input to Output Follower Mode (output
will follow input. i.e. March Time Input, March Time Output). An individual output of 4 amp is achieved by paralleling 2
outputs. The AL800ULADA in non-alarm condition provides independent loop supervision for Class A and/or Class B
FACP NAC circuits. In the event of a loop trouble the FACP will be notified via the AL800ULADA's steered input (input
1 or input 2). In addition, there are common trouble output terminals (NC, C, NO) which are used to indicate general
loop/system trouble. A common trouble input is provided for optional NC (normally closed) devices to report trouble to
the FACP. Two (2) FACP signaling outputs can be connected to AL800ULADA's inputs. These inputs can then be directed
to control supervision and power delivery to any combination of the four (4) outputs.
