13 SFP-5UD & SFP-10UD Series Manual— P/N 52879:C2 1/24/2012
Section 1: Product Description
The SFP-5UD is a five zone FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) and the SFP-10UD is a ten zone
FACP. The information in this manual refers to both the SFP-5UD and SFP-10UD unless other-
wise specified. The combination control and digital communicator panels provide reliable fire sig-
naling protection for small to medium sized commercial, industrial and institutional buildings. The
FACP is compatible with System Sensor’s i
3
detectors which are conventional smoke detectors that
can transmit a maintenance trouble signal to the FACP indicating the need for cleaning and a super-
visory ‘freeze’ signal when the ambient temperature falls below the detector rating of approxi-
mately 45
o
F (refer to System Sensor i
3
Installation and Maintenance Instructions). In addition, the
control panel is compatible with conventional input devices such as two-wire smoke detectors,
four-wire smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices, tamper switches and other normally-
open contact devices. Refer to the Notifier Device Compatibility Document for a complete listing
of compatible devices.
Outputs include four NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits), three programmable Form-C relays
(factory programmed for Alarm, Trouble and Supervisory) and 24 VDC special application reset-
table and nonresettable power outputs. The FACP supervises all wiring, AC voltage, battery level
and telephone line integrity. Available accessories include local and remote upload/download soft-
ware, remote annunciators and reverse polarity/city box transmitter.
The integral DACT transmits system status (alarms, troubles, AC loss, etc.) to a Central Station via
the public switched telephone network. It also allows remote programming or interrogation of the
control panel using the PS-Tools Upload/Download utility via the public switched telephone net-
work. Local programming interrogation is also possible using the PS-Tools and the USB port on
the FACP. Any personal computer with Windows
®
XP or newer, compatible modem with a speed
of 2400 baud and PS-Tools may serve as a Service Terminal. This allows download of the entire
program or upload of the entire program, history file, walktest data and current status.
Activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire alarm initiating device will
activate audible and visual signaling devices, illuminate an indicating LED, display alarm informa-
tion on the panel’s LCD, sound the piezo sounder at the FACP, activate the FACP alarm relay and
operate an optional module used to notify a remote station or initiate an auxiliary control function.
