Devices per Device loop
"
It is important that redundancy is built into the system to accommodate future expansions.
The number of devices on the loop circuit can be limited by the total number of addresses available, the electrical load on the circuit,
the maximum cable length and other geographical considerations.
¨
The loop circuit must not cover more than 10,000m
2
of floor area of a protected site.
¨
In total a maximum of 127 devices are allowed on the loop circuit.
¨
As a general rule allow 1000 load factor for the loop circuit and only use the 2nd value when calculating the
maximum load factor.
The following table can be used as a rough guide only to determine loop load.
"
For a precise battery standby value use the Battery Standby Calculator. The Battery Standby Calculator
should be used during system design stage using the Commissioning tool.
