APPENDIX L AFP-100 Systems
L.1 Capabilities
The AFP-100 allows annunciators to be programmed by zone or by point. The
EIA-485 interface will allow up to 32 annunciators with 64 points at an address,
but two-way communications can occur with only one annunciator per address.
The other devices must be configured as “Receive Only”.
When the panel is programmed by zone, annunciator address 1 is available, and
ACS annunciation displays the 56 software zones of the AFP-100. When the
panel is programmed by point, 198 points are available. Annunciator addresses
1, 2, 3, and 4 can be used, but only address 1 is supervised.
The furthest annunciator can be 6,000 feet from the fire alarm control panel
(check power limitations).
ACS annunciators on the AFP-100 can not be used for manual
control of control modules, bell circuits, or relays (except for global
Silence and Drill switches).
L.2 Connecting the EIA-485 Circuit
EIA-485 wiring is connected to TB5 of the AFP-100 as
shown in the accompanying illustration.
See Section 3.3 “EIA-485 Wiring Specifications” for
details and notes about EIA-485 requirements.
L.3 Providing Power to Annunciators
The annunciator’s power supply is connected to
+24V non-resettable power; use the middle two pins
on TB4 of the AFP-100 as shown in the
accompanying illustration. See Section 3.6
“Annunciator Power Requirements & Electrical
Ratings” for specifications.
The power run to the annunciator need not contain a
Power Supervision Relay because loss of power is inherently supervised
through communication loss. This 24 VDC output is power-limited, filtered,
and non-resettable.
