The FPA‑1000‑UL Analog Addressable Fire Panel is an
advanced analog control panel for small to medium
facilities in commercial or public building applications.
The FPA‑1000‑UL combines complete built-in Fire
Alarm Control Panel (FACP) equipment such as
Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs), Signaling Line
Circuits (SLCs), relays, power supply, Digital Alarm
Communicator Transmitter (DACT), and Ethernet
connection with expandability using the option bus or
plug‑in boards. The two integrated NACs can be
expanded with remote addressable NAC power boosters
programmed with specific activation patterns.
and
The standard control panel includes one SLC that
supports 254 addressable points (254 analog detectors
modules, or 127 analog sounder bases in combination
or
with a suitable detector). The control panel is easily
expandable with the FPE‑1000‑SLC Signaling Line
Circuit Plug-in Module, doubling the address points to
508.
The panel has a compact and solid metal housing with
a keyed lock and a removable dead front door to
access electronics. It features surface and semi-flush
mounting options. On the front of the panel, six lightemitting diodes (LEDs) show Fire, Carbon Monoxide
(Gas) Alarm, Power, Supervisory, Silenced, and
Trouble conditions. The built‑in keypad can be used for
total system control and programming even when
wearing fireman gloves. In addition, a large 4‑line by
20‑character alphanumeric LCD display shows
programmed device point information. Four keys enable
Drill, Reset, Silence, and Acknowledge functions.
The FPA‑1000‑UL enables various programming
approaches:
• Front panel programming
• On-site programming, using a laptop with the
possibility of pre-programming at the office
• Off-site programming, with remote access via
Ethernet (browser-based).
Front panel programming provides an auto‑learn
function, allowing the installer to configure the system
quickly and easily in default mode. Using a local laptop
or remote access communication, the programming is
carried out by means of a browser‑based user
interface. Therefore, no software installation is required.
The panel can receive diagnostics from a Web browser
running on a networked PC.

System Overview
Functions
Communications
The FPA‑1000‑UL has a dual phone line PSTN/DACT
circuit and an Ethernet connection featuring Conettix
IP reporting. The panel communicates in Contact ID,
SIA, and Modem IIIa2. The panel provides miscellaneous reporting functions such as dialing control and
transmission supervision, priorities of report groups,
routing to destinations, manual and auto test reports,
and Anti-Replay feature.
For the primary and secondary account, the following
features are programmable:
Two different phone or IP numbers
•
Different dialing types for PSTN (pulse only, tone and
•
pulse, or tone only)
• Individual PSTN line supervision (audible and visual
trouble signal in the case of a transmission path
failure)
• Selectable options for Report Steering Groups
• Programmable acknowledge wait time for each IP
reporting Conettix account (15 sec up to 255 sec)
• Test call frequency individually programmable for
each account (4, 12, 24 hour, 7 and 28 day intervals,
standard frequency 24 hour)
With modem function, it is possible to program the
control panel remotely (upload a new parameter file to
the panel from a remote station).
Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs)
Two Class A Style Z or Class B Style Y NACs provide up
to 4 A of 24 V power (non-synchronized: 2.5 A per
NAC; synchronized: 2.75 A NAC 1 + NAC 2 in total) to
operate horns, strobes, bells, and other notification
appliances. Each NAC can be programmed to provide
Temporal Code 4, Temporal Code 3, and steady, pulsing, and synchronized protocol output for Wheelock,
Gentex, and System Sensor notification appliances.
Option Bus
On the Option Bus, the FPA-1000-UL supports:
• up to eight FMR-1000-RCMD Remote Command
Centers and FMR-1000-RA Remote Annunciators in
any
combination
• up to eight D7030X Series LED Annunciators with
eight LED zones each,
• up to eight D7030X Series/D7032 combinations
• up to two Octal Relay Modules or Octal Driver
Modules.
The outputs of the Octal Relay Modules or Octal Driver
Modules are fully programmable, and can be activated
by system events. These outputs have the same
programming options as the local relays. Each output
operates independently of the other seven to provide
complete flexibility. Communication with the D7035/B
or D7048/B is supervised.
Power
A transformer working with 120 VAC or 240 VAC is
supplied standard with the control panel. Two backup
batteries with 7 Ah to 18 Ah each fit inside the fire
panel cabinet. A separate battery box can provide
higher capacity.
The FPA-1000-UL provides two auxiliary power supplies (one FWR and one DC) with 0.5 A at 24 V each,
with switchable AUX/RST. This auxiliary power can run
expansion boards or other low current auxiliary
devices.
For installations requiring battery capacity higher than
40 Ah, a regulated and UL1481 Listed external power
supply can be used. The external power supplies
connect through the panel's battery terminals and are
supervised for AC and battery fault by an input module
on the SLC.
The FPP-RNAC-8A-4C Remote NAC Booster adds four
additional Notification Appliance Circuits (NFPA 72,
Class A Style Z or Class B Style Y) to the fire panel or
serves as a power supply for fire protective signaling
systems. This regulated power supply provides up to
6 A of power that is used to recharge batteries and
operate continuous and intermittent alarm loads. This
6 A of power can be distributed through the four NAC
Power Supply circuits that are part of the
FPP-RNAC-8A-4C. The FPP-RNAC-8A-4C is UL Listed for
in commercial fire alarm applications.

Signaling Line Circuits (SLCs)
The FPA‑1000‑UL Fire Panel uses the patented DCP
Digital Communication Protocol to communicate with
each of the analog addressable devices located on the
SLCs. This fast and reliable protocol allows the use of
standard non‑twisted, non‑shielded wiring for the
SLCs. The FPA‑1000‑UL supports two Class B, Style 4
or one Class A, Style 6 or 7 per SLC.
