reliability Several different sources of power can be connected to fire alarm control panel Disconnect all sources of power before Control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by and or inserting cards modules or interconnecting cables the unit is energized Do not attempt to install service or this unit until this manual is read and understood System Reacceptance Test after Software Changes To proper system operation this product must be tested in with NFPA 72 1993 Chapter 7 after any programming or change in site specific software Reacceptance testing is after any change addition or deletion of system components after any modification repair or adjustment to system hardware or components circuits system operations or software functions to be affected by a change must be 100 tested In addition to that other operations are not inadvertently affected at least of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change to a maximum of 50 devices must also be tested and proper system verified system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0 49O C F and at a relative humidity of 85 RH non condensing at C 86O F However the useful life of the system standby batteries the electronic components may be adversely affected by extreme ranges and humidity Therefore it is recommended that system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a room temperature of 15 27O C 60 80O F that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating device loops devices cannot tolerate more than a 10 I R drop from the device voltage Alarm System Limitations automatic fire alarm system typically made up of smoke heat detectors manual pull stations audible warning and a fire alarm control with remote notification capability can early warning of a developing fire Such a system however not assure protection against property damage or loss of life from a fire fire alarm system may fail for a variety of reasons detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the such as in chimneys in walls or roofs or on the other side of doors Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another or floor of a building A second floor detector for example may sense a first floor or basement fire Furthermore all types of detectors both ionization and photoelectric types have limitations No type of smoke detector can sense every kind of caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed explosions escaping gas improper storage of flammable overloaded electrical circuits children playing with matches arson Smoke detectors must be installed in the same room the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the of alarm transmission wiring communications signaling or power If detectors are not so located a developing fire may the alarm system crippling its ability to report a fire Warning all solid state electronic devices this system may operate or can be damaged when subjected to lightning induced Although no system is completely immune from lightning and interferences proper grounding will reduce Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes Consult the Technical Services Department if any problems are or encountered AC power and batteries prior to removing or inserting boards Failure to do so can damage circuits all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling filing reaming punching of the enclosure When possible make all cable entries the sides or rear Before making modifications verify that they not interfere with battery transformer and printed circuit board not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in lbs Over tightening damage threads resulting in reduced terminal contact pressure difficulty with screw terminal removal system contains static sensitive components Always ground with a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so that charges are removed from the body Use static suppressive to protect electronic assemblies removed from the unit the instructions in the installation operating and programming These instructions must be followed to avoid damage to the panel and associated equipment FACP operation and depend upon proper installation warning devices such as bells may not alert people if these are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors or located on another floor of a building fire alarm system will not operate without any electrical power If power fails the system will operate from standby batteries only for specified time heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity time For this reason the rate of rise feature of each detector be tested at least once per year by a qualified fire protection used in the system may not be technically compatible the control panel It is essential to use only equipment listed for with your control panel lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premise to a monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily most common cause of fire alarm malfunctions however is maintenance All devices and system wiring should be and maintained by professional fire alarm installers following procedures supplies with each device System inspection and should be scheduled monthly or as required by National and or fire codes Adequate written records of all inspections should be This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the manual may cause interference to radio communications has been tested and found to comply with the limits for class A device pursuant to Subpart B of 15 of FCC Rules which is to provide reasonable protection against such interference operated in a commercial environment Operation of this in a residential area is likely to cause interference in which the user will be required to correct the interference at his own Requirements digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radiation emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Regulations of the Canadian Department of present appareil numerique n pas de bruits radioelectriques les limites applicables aux appareils numeriques de la A
