579-1190 Installation instructions
Setting the address DIP switch
Each addressable TrueAlert IDNAC notification appliance has a unique address that is set using an eight-position DIP switch
(ADDR1). Up to 127 unique addresses can be assigned to an SLC, however, the total appliance loading available may be less due to
appliance current requirements.
To Set the address:
1. Unclip the appliance from the backplate by inserting a number 2 Phillips screwdriver, or a similar sized object into the opening at
the bottom of the cover. See Figure 3.
2. Use a small screwdriver or pen to set the switches.
3. Record the set address.
4. DIP switch position 8 determines whether this appliance is viewed by the system as an 'ALARM' (OFF) or 'ALERT' (ON) type of
appliance. Confirm the setting for the appliance at this address with the FACP system configuration documentation.
5. DIP position 9 selects white flash color (standard - OFF), or tinted strobe power level (ON) for use with add-on domes.

1. Jumpers are factory set as FACP. Leave the appliance at this setting if
the candela setting is to be programmed from a 4100ES FACP. The
candela setting is visible through the slot on the side of the appliance.
2. If manual selection is required, pull up the candela flag and position the
pins to select the correct candela setting: 15, 30, 75, 110, 135, 185
candela, or FACP.
3. The candela ratings vary when colored lenses are used. Consult the
TrueAlert ES WM S/V Colored Lens
document (579-1192) for the
specific candela ratings.
4. When the appliance is mounted, the candela rating is visible through
the slot on the side of the appliance.
Note: To avoid a programming mismatch trouble, an authorized service personnel
must program one of the 6 candela outputs for each appliance. To set the
candela through the Programmer, set it to FACP. For additional information
refer to the 4100ES Programmer’s Manual (574-849).
