Autocall Audible Notification Appliances, Electronic Horns, Model Series A49AO

Datasheet Addressable Notification Appliances Notification Appliances Electronic Horns Model Series A49AO ULC CSFM Listed FM addressed and controlled low power TrueAlert ES A audible only electronic horns Advanced addressable notification controlled by IDNAC SLCs providing 29 VDC allowing strobes on the same SLC to operate with current even under battery backup T tapped connections for Class B circuits are enabled with wiring to each appliance to simplify wiring Class A circuits require wiring Self Test Mode uses an on board sensor to detect the horn output and report its status to the control panel Horns are controlled separately from visible appliances on the same with control panel selection of operation as Temporal Code March Time selectable as 20 60 or 120 bpm Continuous or Code 4 Output of high or low 6 dBA difference selectable at the or from the controller with FACP mode selected at the Unobtrusive Magnet Test diagnostics are available to assist checkout testing of appliances and wiring Electrical test point access without removing cover Compatible with legacy TrueAlert addressable systems for upgrade and See TrueAlert ES Horn LEGACY Compatibility Reference more information Listed to UL Standard 464 and ULC Standard S525 Indicator and Magnet Test feature Appliance LED can be selected to display each polling cycle to indicate supervision When the controller is in diagnostic mode the Magnet Test pulses LED to indicate appliance address and is selectable to also briefly the horn to confirm operation design features include Rugged high impact flame retardant thermoplastic housing in red with letters or white with red letters available with FIRE FEU or blank Separate covers are available to change application type on site or replacement covers can be easily removed without disturbing the housing and avoiding trouble conditions A separate mounting plate allows wiring to be completed before is mounted use with single gang double gang or 4 inch box flush or surface mount In out wiring terminals for 18 AWG to 12 AWG Optional mounting adapters are available to cover surface mounted boxes and to adapt to Autocall 2975 9145 boxes Optional red wire guards See Product Selection for more information ES addressable horns ES addressable horns are individually addressed audible appliances that receive power supervision and control from a Autocall fire alarm control panel providing IDNAC Line Circuits SLCs See TrueAlert ES Horn LEGACY Reference for more information 1 TrueAlert ES Addressable Horns are Available in with White Lettering and White with Red Lettering ES Operation Advantage ES addressable appliances on IDNAC SLCs provide separate and visible notification using a single two wire circuit that also connection to the individual notification appliance electronic This operation increases circuit supervision integrity by providing that extends beyond the appliance wiring connections current allows efficient IDNAC SLC operation IDNAC SLCs a constant 29 VDC source voltage is maintained during battery standby allowing strobes on the same SLC to at higher voltage with lower current and ensuring a consistent draw and voltage drop margin under both primary power and battery standby Efficiencies include wiring distances up two to three times farther than with conventional notification or for more appliances per IDNAC SLC or use of smaller gauge or combinations of these benefits all providing installation and savings with high assurance that appliances that operate normal system testing will operate during worst case alarm Installation and Testing Time separate controls on the same two wire SLC installation time and for both retrofit and new construction can be significantly When Class B wiring is used wiring can be T tapped allowing savings in distance wire conduit size and utilization and installation efficiency Use of Self Test and Magnet Test features installation efficiency TrueAlert device reports conveniently information about each connected appliance This product has been approved by the California State Fire Marshal CSFM pursuant to Section 13144.1 of the California Health and Safety Code

status Rev 9 04 2021 Notification Appliances Electronic Horns Model Series A49AO ES Diagnostics Features IDNAC SLCs are in diagnostic mode Self Test and Magnet Test features provide individual appliance testing With the Self Test feature operation can be confirmed without leaving the control panel Additionally each appliance LED can be selected to pulse when it receives a poll during normal operation Details Self Test Mode from the control panel allows on board sensors depending on the device type to detect its own strobe or horn output then report their status to the control panel Operation is by selected VNAC appliance groups and is either automatic all briefly simultaneously or individually activated by applying a magnet Refer to control panel data sheet for more Self Test information see TrueAlert ES Horn Compatibility Reference for more information Appliance Magnet Test this test mode in response to application of a magnet the appliance LED pulses sequentially to conveniently indicate the appliance address Appliance Magnet Test this test mode after the address is indicated by pulsing the appliance LED the horn will briefly sound to indicate proper operation Instrument Two TSIT 2nd generation of the Autocall TrueStart Test Instrument can also test IDNAC SLC wiring and TrueAlert ES appliances as well as IDCs NACs and communications before connection to the control panel Please contact your local Autocall representative for additional information Addressable Wiring Isolator Model A4905 9929 is available for remote mounting on TrueAlert addressable
