SAFETY SUMMARY
WARNING AND CAUTION DEFINITIONS
This section defines the safety conventions used throughout this manual (“WARNING” and “CAUTION”). Review
the definitions below to familiarize yourself with what these conventions mean and why and when they are used.
Installation Precautions Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term
reliability:
Note: This entire manual must be read and understood before installation.
This system meets FM and ANSI/UL 864 requirements for operation at 32° to 120°F (0 to 49°C) and at a relative
humidity of 93% (non-condensing) @ 90°F (32.2°C). However, the useful life of the system’s standby batteries and
the electronic components may be adversely effected by continuous operation at these environmental limits.
Therefore, it is recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a nominal
room temperature of 60-80°F.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to
lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning transients and interference,
proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. The use of overhead or outside aerial wiring is not
recommended due to the increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical
Support Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
Do not install electronic assemblies prior to mounting and attaching conduit for field wiring to the enclosure.
Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery and printed circuit board locations. Do
not overtighten screw terminals. Overtightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact
pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before
handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static suppressive packaging to protect
electronic assemblies removed from the control unit.
WARNING
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death,
serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in property
or equipment damage.
WARNING
Several different sources of power can be connected to this fire alarm control unit.
Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equipment
may be damaged by servicing while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install,
service, or operate this control unit until this manual is read and understood.
CAUTION
System Re-acceptance Test after Re-Programming:
To ensure proper system operation, this system must be retested in accordance with
NFPA 72 after any programming change. Re-acceptance testing is also required after any
addition or deletion of system components, and after any modification, repair or
adjustment to system hardware or wiring.
All components, circuits and system operations known to be affected by a change must be
100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least
10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50
devices, must also be tested and proper system operation verified.
