Overview NCA-2 and Displayless Panels
2.2 NCA-2 and Displayless Panels
When there is a displayless NFS2-640 or NFS2-3030 on a Noti•Fire•Net™, the NCA-2 acts as a remote display.

2.3 NCA-2 / NFS2-640 Standalone Application
The NCA-2 can mount in a chassis in the same cabinet as the NFS2-640 panel and connect directly to it via the NUP ports using the NUP
cable (P/N 75577); with this option, NCMs are unnecessary. Refer to Section 3.7, “NCA-2 / NFS2-640 Standalone”, on page 26 for
instructions on how to use the NCA/640-2-KIT for this installation.
Connect the NUP cable from J1 on the NCA-2 to J1 on the NFS2-640 panel. Make this connection only when using the NCA-2 as the
NFS2-640 display. Refer to Figure 2.4.
If the NCA-2 and NFS2-640 are used as a stand-alone pair, each device must be programmed separately using VeriFire
®
Tools in its off-
line programming mode. Because the VeriFire
®
Tools computer also uses the NUP port, the NFS2-640 and NCA-2 must be temporarily
disconnected for programming. If the NFS2-640/NCA-2 pair is connected to a network, there are two additional options for program-
ming: either connect the VeriFire
®
Tools programming PC to the NUP port on the NCM board, or program the NFS2-640 through
another network node. Refer to the VeriFire
®
Tools on-line help for details.

NOTE: Use a NUP cable to connect the two NUP ports (J1 on the NCA-2 and J1 on the NFS2-640). Make this connection only when using the
NCA-2 as the NFS2-640 display.
