FCC Information

1. The dialer complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. The Dialer’ FCC registration number and the Ringer

Equivalence Number (REN) are on the back of the dialer. This information must be provided to the telephone
company, if requested.

2. An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular plug cord is supplied with the dialer. The dialer is designed to be

connected to the telephone network using the supplied cord and an RJ31X or RJ38X jack, which must also
comply with FCC Part 68 rules.

3. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive

RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5). To be certain the number of devices that may be
connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company.

5. If the dialer causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that

temporary discontinuance of service may be required. If advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company
will notify you as soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC, if you
believe it is necessary.

6. The telephone company may make changes in it’s facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could

2.0 APPLICATION

The 2412, 2414, and 2418 panels are suitable for small to medium size buildings, requiring from two to
eight Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs), and two Indicating Appliance Circuits (IACs).

2.1 Fire Alarm System Limitations

Fire Alarm Systems provide the occupants of a facility with early warning of smoke and fire conditions. Fire
alarm systems use a variety of components to meet the requirements of each installation. The fire alarm
panel, automatic and manual detection devices, alarm annunciators, and the installation wiring are all
factors in a reliable system. To maintain proper operation, fire codes require, and this manufacturer
recommends preventive maintenance and testing on a routine basis by qualified personnel.

3.0 THEORY OF OPERATION

3.1 Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs)

The supervised IDCs operate with compatible smoke detectors (refer to Appendix) and normally-open
alarm initiating devices. An IDC may be programmed as an Alarm, Waterflow/Supervisory, or Supervisory
zone. Alarm zones may have verified or non-verified operation. Waterflow/Supervisory zones programmed
with or without a 15 second retard period, also support a single supervisory input device with a

Wseries resistor. IDC circuits may take one of four operating states: Normal, Trouble, Alert, or Alarm.

1.1K
Table 3.1 defines the states for the various IDC zone types.

WARNING! Do NOT put contact devices on Low Impedance Verified Circuits.

An active IDC defined as an Alarm or Waterflow Zone may be identified by a steady red zone LED. Active
IDCs defined as supervisory zones may be identified by a rapid flashing amber zone LED.

5

When an IDC is programmed as a waterflow zone, the IACs DO NOT respond to the ALARM SIL ENCE
switch or automatic alarm silence until the waterflow device is no longer active. Both an alarm initiating
device and a supervisory contact may co-exist on the same circuit by putting a 1.1K
supervisory contact. When the waterflow with retard option is programmed, a special algorithm samples
the circuit repeatedly. If 66% of the samples taken in any 15 second period indicate a waterflow (shorted)
condition, the circuit activates a waterflow alarm.

When an IDC is programmed as a verified zone and a smoke alarm is detected, the panel enters the
Alarm Verification state. A twenty five second sequence in which the detector is reset, delayed, and
restarted is initiated, as shown in Figure 3.1. If auxiliary power is programmed as resettable, it is de­energized for the reset period. Following the reset-delay-restart sequence, a 60 second verification
window is opened. If the verifying zone should go into the Alert, Alarm, or Trouble conditions within the 60
second window as shown in Figure 3.2, the panel enters the alarm mode. If any other IDC on the panel
goes into the alert or alarm state during the verification period, the panel immediately enters the alarm
mode. Dry contact alarm initiating devices may be combined with High Impedance 2-wire smoke detectors
on verified zones. The closing of a normally open dry contact alarm initiating device generates an Alarm
state immediately, and the panel enters the alarm mode.

Initiating Device Circuit, Class A (Style D) Operation

To convert a Class B (Style B) IDC zone to a Class A (Style D) IDC zone, install a 2400-BPA Class A

Ω in series with the

NOTE

2- Wire Relay Bases are NOT supported on Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs).

(Style D/Z) Converter on the base panel, or a 2400-IDCA Class A (Style D) Converter on the Two Zone
IDC Module. The converters provides an alternate path to the zone module for all Initiating Devices in the
event of a single wire break in an IDC.

3.2 Indicating Appliance Circuits (IACs)

Two supervised Indicating Appliance Circuits (IACs) operate using compatible 24 VDC (nominal) polarized
signaling appliances. Each circuit is rated at nominal 24 VDC @ 2.5 Amps, with a total of 4.0 Amps
available for both circuits. An IAC may be programmed as either silenceable or non-silenceable. Signal
rate selection is independently programmable for each IAC as shown in Figure 3.3. Refer to the Appendix
for compatible Indicating Appliances.

Figure 3.3 - IAC Signal Rates

IACs generate a trouble indication (slow flashing LED) when field wiring is open or shorted. In an open
fault condition, the panel will attempt to energize the signal appliances (i.e., all appliances up to the circuit
break will operate). An IAC with shorted field wiring will NOT operate in the event of an alarm. If an IAC
develops a short during an alarm, the IAC will automatically shut off and continuously monitor the field
wiring. When the fault is cleared, the IAC will re-energize. These actions protect the power supply and
other panel components from damage caused by the short circuit.

Indicating Appliance Circuit, Class A (Style Z) Operation

protects the system from damage caused by a reversed battery connection.

Power Up

1. Verify that all factory installed end-of-line resistors are still in place, all -ADM & -ADS module jumpers
are all installed, and -RCT module jumpers 1 & 2 are installed.

2. Connect primary power wires: Line, Neutral, and Ground to the input terminals of the power supply.

3. Energize AC power to the system. When you first apply power to the system it will follow an

initialization procedure. This procedure programs all connected IDCs as non-verified alarm inputs and
identifies the configuration of all output modules (it can take up to 15 seconds). You will see zone
LEDs turning on and off in sequence and communication LEDs (lower edge of expansion module
boards) flashing. Allow the system to complete this procedure before touching any controls. At the end
of the process, all LEDs except the Power On LED should be off. If the system trouble LED is on and
the trouble signal is sounding, refer to the trouble shooting procedures in this manual. If module LEDs
remain on steady, refer to the Programming section for additional information.

5.6 Dialer Module Programming

Refer to the DIALER MODULE drawing
You will need to know the following information in order to program the dialer module:

• The primary and secondary telephone numbers at the CMS used to receive the signals.

• The DL1 Password = 4727 (GSBS).

• Site primary and secondary ID numbers for the dialer. The site ID numbers are supplied by the CMS.

• Number of retry attempts to CMS. Valid entries are 5 to 10.

• The retry interval. This is the delay time between subsequent attempts to call the CMS.

• The AC power fail notification delay time, if any.

• Daily dialer supervision message delay period. This is the delay interval from power until the first dialer

supervision message is transmitted to the CMS. Valid entries are 0 to 18 hours, with a 12 Hour default
time. The panel must be powered down, then powered up for a change in the delay time to take effect.

• Status retransmission enable/disable setting. Enable this option if the CMS requires all off-normal
status to be re-transmitted with the daily dialer supervision message.

A Put the dialer in the programming mode by plugging any tone dial telephone into J3 on the Dialer

Module and lift the handset off-hook. The touch pad dial on this phone is used for all dialer module

programming. If the Dialer Module is unresponsive, verify that steps 1 & 2 in the DL1 Dialer Panel
and Field Wiring Connections section were performed.

B Enter the dialer password using the programming phone. A beep indicates that a program item has

been entered. NOTE: The dialer will make one attempt to call the monitoring station and report that
it is disabled before you can proceed with programming.

C When the LED goes solid green, you may select any programming item by entering an asterisk “*”

followed by the item number, e.g.”*08” for AC fail delay. The suggested sequence is listed in the
following steps:

1 Enter the primary site ID number supplied by the Central Monitoring Station (CMS). Always enter

four (4) digits. If ID has less than four digits, enter leading zeros, i.e. 0012.

2 Enter the primary CMS phone number. This is the primary phone number of the DACR

receiving equipment, not the administrative phone numbers.

3 Enter the secondary site ID number supplied by the Central Monitoring Station (CMS). Always enter

four (4) digits. If ID has less than four digits, enter leading zeros, i.e. 0012.

4 Enter the secondary CMS phone number. This is the secondary phone number of the DACR

receiving equipment, not the administrative phone numbers.
5 Select the number of phone lines to be used. NOTE:
6 Enter the number of times the module attempts to call the CMS receiving equipment.
7 Enter the retry interval. This is the time between subsequent attempts to reach the CMS in the event

of line trouble or busy signals.
8 Enter the AC failure delay time. This is the length of the delay between the time AC power fails and

the CMS is notified of the failure.

period. Valid entries are 0 to 18 hours.

NFPA requires a delay of 25% to 50% of rated standby power

This setting does NOT effect any other trouble signals.

Two lines are required to comply with NFPA 72.

20

9 Enter the daily supervisory message delay time. The module sends a supervisory message to the

CMS once every 24 hours to verify the communications path and message receipt. The delay is used

to set the time the daily message is transmitted based on a delay from the time the panel is powered

up.

EXAMPLE: If the CMS requires the daily supervisory message to be sent at 0300 (3 AM) and the

current time is 1400 (2 PM), set the delay for 13 hours, power down, then power up.
10 Enable or disable the status message re-transmission option. The dialer can optionally re-transmit

all status messages when the daily dialer supervision message is sent. Status retransmission is in

addition to the message sent when the event occurred.
11 Select the order in which the zone number and status code are sent, zone first (default) or code first.

D Hang up the handset and remove the programming telephone from Dialer Module jack J3 to end

programming.

NOTES:

1 If no activity occurs in programming mode for one hour, the DL1 will exit from programming

mode. To re-enter programming mode, hang up the programming phone, then start at step B
of the programming procedure.

2 Factory new dialers remain disabled until both phone numbers and both site ID’s are

programmed. Once programmed, the dialer will attempt to call the monitoring station on power
up. Programming mode cannot be entered until the call is completed, or all call attempts have
failed.

3 When dialer programming step 10 is enabled, it causes all off-normal status, including alarms,

to be retransmitted along with the 24 hour test call.

Alarm Mode

When a fire alarm condition is detected, the common alarm LED is ON (RED), and the panel is in Alarm
Mode. If the alarm occurs while in trouble or supervisory mode, the panel displays the system trouble LED
steady ON, and silences the trouble buzzer. The trouble relay continues to indicate panel trouble. Zone
Trouble and Supervisory LEDs not in conflict with the alarm LEDs remain ON.

WARNING

Do NOT silence fire signals until certain that a fire condition does not exist.

In the alarm mode, the Indicating Appliance Circuits operate as programmed. The system alarm LED turns
on, the alarm relay operates, and the Relay/City-Tie Module transmits a fire alarm condition, if so
configured. The red IDC zone LED lights, indicating the area of the alarm. The appropriate alarm zone
LED on the Remote Annunciator operates via the Annunciator Driver Module. The dialer will transmit a
zone specific alarm signal to the Central Monitoring Station.

To silence the Indicating Appliances, press the
respond to the

ALARM SILENCE switch until all waterflow zones are no longer in the active alarm condition.

Reset Mode

When the facility is safe to re-enter, the panel may be Reset. Manual stations and other manually
restorable devices must be returned to their normal condition. Non-restorable devices which have been
activated by the fire must be replaced. In the event replacement is not immediately feasible, disable the
affected zone using its disable switch. Pressing the

RESET switch automatically resets the smoke detectors

and returns the panel to the normal (trouble mode if zones have been disabled) mode. If all alarm initiating
devices have not been restored, the panel will re-enter the alarm mode. The entire reset process takes
about 20 seconds to complete. The panel can NOT be reset while the alarm silence inhibit timer is active.
Panel reset does not change a zone’s enabled/disabled status.

Reset the panel by pressing the
buzzer to sound, and the trouble relay to go into the trouble state. Operation of the

RESET switch. Reset causes the system trouble LED to light, the trouble

RESET switch also

causes all front panel LEDs to turn on, verifying their operation. After internal processing is completed, the
panel returns to the normal mode.

Trouble Mode

When the panel is in the Trouble Mode, some portion of the panel or field wiring is in an abnormal
condition and the proper operation of the fire alarm system may be affected. If an alarm is detected while
in the trouble mode, the panel will enter the alarm mode and sound an alarm. If a supervisory condition is
detected while in the trouble mode, the panel will enter the supervisory mode mode and the trouble
contacts will remain activated.

In the trouble mode: the system trouble LED flashes, the trouble buzzer sounds at a 20 pulse/minute rate,
the trouble relay operates, and the Relay/City-Tie Module transmits a trouble signal if it is configured to
transmit trouble. The dialer will transmit a trouble signal to the Central Monitoring Station. If the trouble
occurs on an Initiating Device Circuit, the trouble message will be zone specific.

The Relay/City-Tie Module (if configured to transmit trouble) delays its trouble output for 6 hours when
activated by a loss of AC power. The base panel trouble relay activates 6 seconds after the loss of AC
power. The relay’s 6 second contact transfer delay minimizes nuisance troubles due to brownouts and
power line failures. All other trouble conditions are transmitted off premise without delay. In addition to the
system trouble LED, IDC zones, IAC zones, and option modules light a unique trouble LED, further
identifying the cause of the problem.

To silence the trouble buzzer, press the

TROUBLE SILENCE switch. The system trouble LED will light

steadily. New trouble conditions resound the trouble buzzer, and cause the system trouble LED to flash
slowly. Correction of the problem causing a trouble condition automatically returns the panel to the normal
mode, if no other faults exist. Certain critical internal faults and Class A trouble conditions latch the panel
into the trouble mode, requiring the panel to be reset before exiting the trouble mode. Module placement
trouble conditions remain active until the panel is reprogrammed.

23

Supervisory Mode

When the panel is in the Supervisory Mode, a portion of the building fire protection system (not the panel)
is in an abnormal condition and its proper operation is affected. If an alarm occurs while in the supervisory
mode, the panel will enter the alarm mode and sound an alarm. If a supervisory condition is detected while
in the trouble mode, the panel enters the supervisory mode.

In the supervisory mode, the system trouble LED, amber supervisory zone LED, and trouble buzzer all
operate at 120 pulses per minute. The trouble relay operates and the Relay/City-Tie Module (if configured
to transmit supervisory alarm) transmits a supervisory and trouble signal. The respective zone LED on the
remote annunciator will illuminate. The dialer will transmit a zone specific supervisory signal to the Central
Monitoring Station.

Restoration of the supervisory condition causes the amber supervisory zone LED to light steadily. The
trouble buzzer continues to pulse rapidly, or will resound if previously silenced. The respective zone LED
on the remote annunciator will remain illuminated during the supervisory restore mode.

Press the

RESET switch to exit the supervisory mode when all supervisory alarms have restored. The dialer

will transmit a zone specific restore signal to the Central Monitoring Station.

Drill Mode

The drill mode operates both IACs. The panel will leave the drill mode, enter the alarm mode, and sound
an alarm if an alarm is detected. The panel will leave the drill mode and enter the supervisory mode if a
supervisory condition occurs.

The drill mode is entered from the normal mode by simultaneously pressing the

ALARM SILENCE and RESET

switches for at least one second. Entering the drill mode places the panel in the trouble mode. The trouble
LED will flash slowly. Pressing the

ALARM SILENCE switch terminates the drill. The alarm relay and the

Relay/City-Tie Module (when configured to transmit alarms) do not operate in the drill mode.
To exit the drill mode, either press the

ALARM SILENCE switch, or press the RESET switch.

IDC Zone Disable

Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs) may be individually Disabled by operating a zone’s

ZONE DISABLE switch.

WARNING

Disabling a zone removes the zone’s ability to put the panel in an Alarm or Supervisory condition.

Disabling a zone permits the panel to be reset and restore protection to all zones except the disabled
ones. The

Test Mode.

ZONE DISABLE switch is also used to select a zone for testing, as detailed in the section entitled

When a zone(s) is disabled, the Zone Disabled LED as well as the individual zone trouble LED exhibit a 2­phase flash, and the panel is put in the trouble mode. If the panel was in an Alarm, Supervisory, or Trouble
state when the

ZONE DISABLE switch was activated, the panel will not return to normal.

When a disabled zone is re-enabled, its zone LED indicates its status. If a re-enabled zone indicates it is in
alarm, the panel will wait 10 seconds before going into the alarm mode. Pressing the

ZONE DISABLE switch

within the 10 second period disables the zone again, without the panel going into the alarm mode. A
disabled zone's status is retained in the panel's memory during power down, and will remain disabled upon
power up. Panel reset does not change a zone's enabled/disabled status.

24

Test Mode

The Test Mode is used to verify the operation of the panel, alarm initiating devices, and the integrity of field
wiring.

WARNING

Fire detection capability on the zone(s) under test is NOT functional in the Test Mode.

The panel will leave the test mode, enter the alarm mode, and sound an alarm if a zone not selected for
testing detects an alarm. The panel will leave the test mode and enter the supervisory mode if a zone not
selected for testing detects a supervisory condition. Putting the panel in the test mode also puts it in the
trouble mode.

Select an IDC zone(s) for testing by operating its respective zone disable switch(s). The "audible" test
mode is entered from the normal or trouble modes by simultaneously pressing the

RESET switches for at least one second. This causes the zone disabled LED to show a 3-phase flash and

the trouble buzzer to pulse slowly. The trouble buzzer can be silenced in the test mode. The alarm relay,
Relay/City-Tie Module (when configured to transmit alarms) will not operate in the test mode unless a valid
alarm on any zone not being tested is received. Pressing the

TROUBLE SILENCE and RESET switches a

second time, for at least one second while in the audible test mode, puts the panel in the "silent" test

mode. This causes the zone disabled LED to show a 4-phase flash and the trouble buzzer continues to
sound. The silent test mode operates identically to the audible test mode with the exception that the IACs
are not activated. The use of a Preventive Maintenance Tester (P/N 46288-0017) is recommended when
performing a silent walk test.

TROUBLE SILENCE and

Any alarm (verified or non-verified) on a zone under test will operate both IACs. The panel will sound one
short pulse for zone 1, five short pulses for zone 5, etc., audibly identifying the number of the zone
successfully tested. A trouble condition or ground fault on any zone under test, or an open or ground on
either IAC, sounds a one second pulse on both IACs. If the auxiliary power is programmed as resettable, it
will be deactivated while the zone under test is being reset.

In the test mode, the time the disabled IDC zone(s) takes to reset is characteristic of the source initiating
the test sequence, as shown in Table 6.2. This feature is primarily used when testing in the silent test
mode. The IDC zone reset period may be determined by measuring the length of time that the nominal
IDC voltage (24 VDC) equals 0 VDC.

NOTE

When verifying the operation of strobe lights using the Test Mode, the strobe lights may

not receive enough energy to successfully charge. Use independent test methods such

as Drill Mode to verify strobe lights and field wiring.

NOTE

Before exiting Test Mode, be sure to Enable the zone(s) that were Disabled for testing.

CAUTION

If there is no activity on the system for 30 minutes, the system will exit the Test Mode

and the Disabled zone(s) will remain Disabled.

To exit the test mode, press and hold the RESET switch for one second.

being transmitted via the primary signal path (phone line connected to J1) within 4 minutes.

8.3 Testing Procedures for Compatible 2-Wire Smoke Detectors

EDWARDS 2420

m Functional Test: Hold a magnet next to the alarm LED. The detector should alarm within 5 seconds.
m Cleaning: To clean the ion chamber, disable the zone using the ENABLE/DISABLE switch to prevent

accidental alarm. Remove the detector from its base. Remove the grill. Place the vacuum cleaner
nozzle over the chamber and remove dust. Reinsert the grill by aligning tabs on the grill with slots on
the housing. Press the grill into the housing and turn clockwise until grill locks into position.

EDWARDS 2430

m Functional test: Insert the long end of the calibrated test probe (P/N 6278-001A) into the oblong

opening on top of detector grill. The detector should alarm within 10 seconds. Insert the short end of
the calibrated test probe into the oblong opening on top of the detector grill. The detector should NOT
alarm within 10 seconds. If an alarm occurs, clean or replace the detector.

m Cleaning: To clean photo chamber, disable the zone using the ENABLE/DISABLE switch to prevent

accidental alarm. Remove the detector from its base. Remove the grill. Vacuum dust and foreign
material from the optic ramp area. Remove the bug screen from the grill. Wash the bug screen and
grill in water and air dry. Reinsert the screen into the grill. Reinsert the grill by aligning the arrow on the
rim of the grill with the LED on the housing and turn clockwise until the grill locks into position.

CAUTION

If the grill is removed while the detector is in its base, the detector will generate an

alarm.

Using the Battery Tables

Having selected the proper table, you must know the number of option modules installed in the panel, any
auxiliary current required, and when using Tables 10.2 and 10.3, the signal current required. Option
modules are 2400-2IDC Two Zone Initiating Device Circuit Modules, 2400-RCT Relay/City-Tie Modules,
and 2400-ADM Annunciator Driver Master Modules. 2400-BPA Class A Converters, 2400-IDCA Class A
IDC Converters, and 2400-ADS Annunciator Driver Slave Modules are NOT considered in the module
count.

Table 10.1 - 24 Hours Supervisory, 5 Minutes of Alarm

The intersection of the row representing the number of installed modules with the auxiliary supervisory
current column equal to or greater than the required auxiliary current load indicates the minimum required
battery size in Amp Hours (AH).

Table 10.2 - 60 Hours Supervisory, 5 Minutes of Alarm, &
Table 10.3 - 24 Hours Supervisory, 30 Minutes of Alarm

Enter the table by selecting the auxiliary supervisory current equal to or greater than that required. Staying
within the chosen supervisory current portion of the table, the intersection of the row representing the
number of installed modules with the column representing the required alarm signal current indicates the
minimum required battery size in Amp Hours (AH).

40

Battery Calculation Example #1

A panel with one (1) option module is to be installed in accordance with the Canadian National Building
Code (NBC) requirement of 24 hours standby, 30 minutes alarm. The IAC requires 2.5 Amps, and there is
no auxiliary power used. Calculate the minimum required battery capacity that will meet the requirements.
Looking at Table 10.3, the intersection of the one (1) option module row and the 2.5 Amp IAC alarm
current column within the “0 mA” area of the table occurs at 6.5. This indicates that the required battery
capacity is 6.5 AH. Two 12 V, 6.5 AH batteries (P/N 12V6A5) will adequately power this system.

Battery Calculation Example #2

A two zone panel with two (2) option modules requires 24 hours of standby, 5 minutes of alarm. The IAC
requires 2.5 Amps. The 4-wire smoke detectors require 25 mA of auxiliary power. Calculate the minimum
battery capacity that will meet these requirements.
Looking at Table 10.1, the intersection of the two (2) option module row and the 25 mA supervisory current
occurs at 4.5. This indicates that the required battery capacity is 4.5 AH. Two 12 V, 6.5 AH batteries (P/N
12V6A5) will adequately power this system. NOTE: If 8 zones were installed in the panel, the battery
capacity would remain at 6.5 AH.

10.3 Appendix 3 - Glossary

Alarm Silence/Reset Inhibit Timer - A panel option which prevents silencing Indicating Appliance Circuits

or resetting the panel for a programmed period after the last alarm.
Alarm Silence Timer - A panel option which automatically silences the Indicating Appliance Circuits

(IACs) after a programmed time limit after the last alarm.
Alert - A condition or state of an Initiating Device Circuit (IDC) caused when the effective internal

resistance of an initiating device is a relatively low impedance.
Alarm - A condition or state of an Initiating Device Circuit (IDC) caused when the effective internal

resistance of an initiating device is approaching 0
Class A Supervision, IAC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open

or short condition on an Indicating Appliance Circuit. All appliances can operate in spite of an open fault.
Similar to Style Z supervision.

Class A Supervision, IDC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open
condition on an Initiating Device Circuit. All devices can initiate an alarm in the event of an open fault.

Class B Supervision, IAC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open
or short condition on an Indicating Appliance Circuit. Similar to Style Y supervision.

Class B Supervision, IDC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open
condition on an Initiating Device Circuit. All devices up to the location of an open fault can initiate an alarm.

Ω.

Dialer - See digital alarm communicator transmitter.
Digital Alarm Communicator Receiver (DACR) - Central monitoring station equipment which receives

and displays messages from a digital alarm communicator transmitter (DACT) which are sent via the
public switched telephone network.

Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (DACT) - Equipment installed in the fire alarm panel which
transmits status changes to the central monitoring station by seizing a telephone line, dialing the
preselected number of the digital alarm communicator and transmit fire alarm panel status changes.

High Impedance Initiating Device - An alarm initiating device whose equivalent resistance will put an
Initiating Device Circuit in the Alert Mode.

Indicating Appliance Circuit (IAC) - A supervised output circuit connected directly to any audible or
visual signal appliance used to indicate a fire.

Initiating Device Circuit (IDC) - A supervised input circuit connected directly to any manual or automatic
initiating device whose normal operation results in an alarm or supervisory signal indication at the control
panel.

Low Impedance Initiating Device - An alarm initiating device whose equivalent resistance will put an
Initiating Device Circuit in the Alarm mode.

March Time - A 50% duty cycle, 120 beats/minute signal pattern.

53

Non-Silenceable - An indicating appliance circuit (IAC) which remains active after initiation, independent
of the alarm silence features.

One-Man Test - Maintenance mode to test initiating and indicating circuits. Creating an alarm on the
Initiating Device Circuit (IDC) under test causes both Indicating Appliance Circuit (IAC) to pulse out the
zone number of the zone under test (i.e., three rings for zone 3). Creating a trouble or ground fault
condition on the IDC under test causes both IACs to output a single long pulse.

Password, Dialer - 4727 (GSBS)
Power Limited - Wiring and equipment which conforms with and is installed to the National Electrical

Code, article 760, power limited provisions.

Retard - The delay of waterflow signals to prevent false alarms due to fluctuations in water pressure.
Silenceable - An Indicating Appliance Circuit (IAC) which follows the action of the alarm silence switch.
SPM - Strokes Per Minute.
Style B Supervision, IDC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open

condition or ground fault on an Initiating Device Circuit. All devices up to the location of an open fault can
initiate an alarm.

Style D Supervision, IDC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open
condition or ground fault on an Initiating Device Circuit. All devices can initiate an alarm in the event of an
open fault. Similar to Class A IDC supervision.

Style Y Supervision, IAC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open,
short, or ground fault condition on an Indicating Appliance Circuit. Similar to Class B IAC supervision.

Style Z Supervision, IAC - Circuit monitoring technique which signals a trouble condition upon an open,
short, or ground fault condition on an Indicating Appliance Circuit. All appliances can operate in spite of an

open fault. Similar to Class A IAC supervision.

Supervisory Operation - An IDC used to monitor the status of critical fire protection equipment.
Temporal Pattern - A 3 pulse signal meeting the requirements of NFPA Standard 72, section A-2-4.10(a),

and ULC 527.
Verification, Alarm - After receipt of an alarm by a smoke detector, verified zones attempt to

automatically reset the detector. Receipt of a second alarm within the 60 second confirmation period after
the automatic detector reset period transmits the alarm to the panel.

Waterflow Zone - IDCs defined as waterflow zones do not permit alarm silence while the alarm is active.
