Introduction
Summit’s SFC-500 Series Analog/Addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel provides a loop for 60 or 126 addressable
or three loops for 378 input and output devices, four supervised Class B or A (Style Y or Z) indicating circuits, a full
range of auxiliary power supplies, and extensive common control features via its integrated LCD display and push
button console. Many of its features are fully configurable utilizing the built-in configuration capability via the front
panel display and switches. The panel is available with an integrated dialer/modem. Optional modules include
Polarity Reversal and City Tie, SRAX-532 LED Display Adder, and Class A Converter for indicating circuits. Semi-
flush or surface mountable enclosures can be used for retrofits and on new installations. This manual covers the
following panels:

Features
• The SFC-500 Series panels support a loop of 60 or 126 analog devices and up to 3 loops of 378 analog devices,
including thermal, ion, photo detectors, and contact input and output devices. Drift compensation and Auto Test
features are provided for analog devices.
• Four Power Limited Class B (Style Y) indicating circuits. Each indicating circuit may be configured as Class A
(Style Z) using an output Class A converter adder module. Each indicating circuit may be configured as
silenceable signal, non-silenceable signal, silenceable strobes, non-silenceable strobes, or relay output. The
audible signal may be Steady, Temporal Code, California Code, or March Time. The system provides the
necessary protocols to sync strobes from major manufacturers.
• Two-stage, alarm verification, and waterflow retard operations available.
• Configurable Signal Silence Inhibit, Auto Signal Silence, Two-Stage Operation, and One-Man Walk Test.
• Subsequent Alarm, Supervisory, and Trouble operation.
• provides a regulated, supervised 21.1VDC auxiliary power supply @ 500mA max.; unfiltered, unsupervised 24V
FWR power supply @ 1.7 A max and a resettable auxiliary power supply @ 300mA max.
• Relay Contacts for Common Alarm, Common Supervisory and Common Trouble all non-disconnectable and
Auxiliary Alarm Relay (disconnectable).
• Output for remote trouble indicator and Buzzer (RTI).
• RS-485 Interface for SRAM-200LCD Annunciators, SRA-300 Series Remote Annunciators, SRAM-216 and
SRAM-208 Remote Annunciators and SSR-212 Smart Relay Modules (max total of 7 remote annunciators).
• Optional Module for City Tie and Polarity Reversal Signaling.
• Extensive transient protection
• Built-in UDACT (Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter).
• Extensive and easy configuration of the panel via the integrated LCD display and keypad or laptop computer.
• Remote dial up (with built-in UDACT) for event log checking and/or configuration changing
Note: Installation of the SFC-500 Series Fire Alarm Control panel should be in accordance with Canadian
Electrical Code Part 1, ULC-S524 installation of Fire Alarm System, National Electrical Code NFPA
70 and NFPA 72. Final acceptance subject to the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
