2.0 Device Description
Radionics’ D9069A Fire System Annunciator is a remote annunciator designed for use in public places in an analog
system controlled by Radionics’ D8024 and D10024 Series Analog FACPs. It annunciates system events only and has
no provision for system control. The FACP sends system status information to the D9069A over a two-wire Class A or
Class B RS-485 circuit.
An 80-character back-lit liquid crystal display shows system events in English text. Forty of these characters are
programmable to display individual device locations (20 for the zone and 20 for the device). System-wide text displays
include Alarm, Trouble, Service, Missing Point and custom polling circuit and address text.
Six front panel display LEDs report system conditions. See Table 1 for a description of these LEDs. There are also four
on-board LEDs that indicate system activity. See Table 2 for a description of these LEDs.
An internal sounder signals the annunciator’s location in alarm conditions.
Each analog control panel can support up to 31 D9069A Fire System Annunciators.
