Fire Alarm System Limitations
While a fire alarm system may lower insurance
rates, it is not a substitute for fire insurance!
An automatic fire alarm system–typically made up of smoke
detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control with remote notification
capability–can provide early warning of a developing fire.
Such a system, however, does not assure protection against
property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors be located throughout a protected premise following the
recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire
Protection Association Standard 72 (NFPA 72),
manufacturer's recommendations, State and local codes, and
the recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use
of System Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no
charge to all installing dealers. A study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (an agency of the United States
government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in
as many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or protection against fire. A fire alarm system
may not provide timely or adequate warning, or simply may not
function, for a variety of reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot
reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on
roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors
also may not sense a fire on another level or floor of a building. A second-floor detector, for example, may not sense a
first-floor or basement fire.
Particles of combustion or "smoke" from a developing fire
may not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:
• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, or
chimneys may inhibit particle or smoke flow.
• Smoke particles may become "cold," stratify, and not reach
the ceiling or upper walls where detectors are located.
• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air
outlets.
• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching
the detector.
The amount of "smoke" present may be insufficient to alarm
smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at
various levels of smoke density. If such density levels are not
created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the
detectors will not go into alarm.
Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing
limitations. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing
chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming
fires, which have little visible smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast-flaming fires
better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither
type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire.
Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate
warning of fires caused by arson, children playing with
matches (especially in bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent
explosions (caused by escaping gas, improper storage of
flammable materials, etc.).
Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm
only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined
rate or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this
reason, the rate-of-rise feature of each detector should be tested
at least once per year by a qualified fire protection specialist.
Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.
IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same
room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for
the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications,
signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a devel-
oping fire may damage the alarm system, crippling its ability to
report a fire.
Audible warning devices such as bells may not alert people if
these devices are located on the other side of closed or partly
open doors or are located on another floor of a building. Any
warning device may fail to alert people with a disability or those
who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol or medication.
Please note that:
• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in
people with conditions such as epilepsy.
• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear
a fire alarm signal, do not respond or comprehend the meaning of the signal. It is the property owner's responsibility to
conduct fire drills and other training exercise to make people
aware of fire alarm signals and instruct them on the proper
reaction to alarm signals.
• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause
temporary or permanent hearing loss.
A fire alarm system will not operate without any electrical
power. If AC power fails, the system will operate from standby
batteries only for a specified time and only if the batteries
have been properly maintained and replaced regularly.
Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible with the control. It is essential to use only equipment
listed for service with your control panel.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a
premise to a central monitoring station may be out of service
or temporarily disabled. For added protection against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are recommended.
The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire fire alarm system in
excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per
the manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the requirements of Chapter 7 of NFPA
72 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts of
dust, dirt or high air velocity require more frequent maintenance. A maintenance agreement should be arranged
through the local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance
should be scheduled monthly or as required by National and/
or local fire codes and should be performed by authorized professional fire alarm installers only. Adequate written records
of all inspections should be kept.

Installation Precautions
Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free
installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be con-
nected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources
of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards,
modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized.
Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this unit until this
manual is read and understood.
CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test after Software
Changes. To ensure proper system operation, this product
must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 Chapter 7 after
any programming operation or change in site-specific software. Reacceptance testing is required after any change, addition or deletion of system components, or after any modification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.
All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions 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.
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at
0-49° C/32-120° F
condensing) at 30° C/86° F. However, the useful life of the
system's standby batteries and the electronic components
may be adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges
and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that this system
and all peripherals be installed in an environment with a nominal room temperature of 15-27° C/60-80° F.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and
indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more
than a 10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage.
and at a relative humidity of 85% RH (non-
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 interferences, proper
grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside
aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Techni-
cal Services Department if any problems are anticipated or
encountered.
Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.
Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling, filing,
reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make
all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer, and printed circuit board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs.
Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced
terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal
removal.
Though designed to last many years, system components
can fail at any time. 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 unit.
Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and
programming manuals. These instructions must be followed
to avoid damage to the control panel and associated
equipment. FACP operation and reliability depend upon
proper installation by authorized personnel.

1.6.1 Intelligent Addressable Detectors: Newer Series
Intelligent, addressable detectors provide information to the control panel on an SLC
Signaling Line Circuit (refer to the SLC Wiring Manual for detailed information on
device installation, wiring and operation). This allows the control panel to continually
process the information to determine the status (alarm, trouble, maintenance or normal)
of each detector. Each detector responds to an SLC address that is set in the detector
head using built-in rotary decimal switches with the ability to select up to 159
addresses. Note that a blinking LED on an intelligent detector indicates
communication between the detector and the control panel. Refer to the Fire•Lite
Device Compatibility Document for a list of approved detectors.
Smoke Detectors (Photoelectric)

detectors which provide smoke sensing technology. The SD350T and SD355T include
o
a 135
fixed thermal sensor. The AD350and AD355 are multicriteria photoelectric
smoke detectors with heat sensing capabilities and automatic drift compensation.
Smoke Detector (Ionization)

approved notification and initiating devices.
Monitor Modules
The MMF-300, MMF-300-10, MDF-300, MMF-302 and MMF-302-6 are addressable
monitor modules for monitoring conventional initiating devices. The MMF-300 is used
for normally open contact alarm initiating devices, such as manual pull stations, fourwire smoke detectors, heat detectors, waterflow, security contacts and supervisory
devices. The MMF-300-10 functions the same as the MMF-300 except it provides 10
Class B or 5 Class A inputs. The MDF-300 is a dual monitor module (Class B only)
which occupies two consecutive SLC addresses, with each module functionally the
same as the MMF-300. The MMF-302 is used primarily for two-wire smokes detectors
in addition to normally open contact devices. The MMF-302-6 functions the same as
the MMF-302 except it provides 6 Class B or 3 Class A inputs. The supervised IDCs
(Initiating Device Circuits) can be wired to the modules as NFPA Style B (Class B) or
Style D (Class A) circuits. The modules are supplied with a thermoplastic cover for
mounting to a 4-inch mounting box.
Monitor Module (miniature)
The MMF-301 is an addressable module that is functionally similar to an MMF-300 but
offered in a smaller package for mounting directly in the electrical box of the device
being monitored.
Control Module
The CMF-300 and CMF-300-6 are an addressable Control Modules used to connect
NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits) to power and supervise compatible, UL-listed
notification appliances. The CMF-300 provides one Class B or Class A output while
the CMF-300-6 provides 6 Class B or 3 Class A outputs. The NACs can be wired to the
module as supervised NFPA Style Y (Class B) or Style Z (Class A) circuits. The
modules are supplied with a thermoplastic cover for mounting to a 4-inch square
mounting box.
Relay Module
The CRF-300 and CRF-300-6 are a Control Relay Modules which are functionally
similar to the CMF-300 but used as Form-C relay modules. The CRF-300 provides one
Form-C relay while the CRF-300-6 provides six Form-C relays.
Isolator Module
The I300 loop isolator module is an automatic switch which opens the circuit voltage to
the SLC loop branch(es) whenever a wire-to-wire short circuit is detected on that loop.
The remainder of the communications loop leading up to the I300 will continue to
operate, unaffected by the short. The isolator module is bidirectional, meaning that it
can detect a fault condition between the input SLC terminals or output SLC terminals.
The I300 is required to meet NFPA Style 7 requirements.
Detector Annunciator
The RA400Z is a remote single LED annunciator that can be wired directly to an
addressable detector for annunciation of that detector’s alarm status.
Manual Pull Station
The BG-12LX is an addressable manual pull station featuring a key-lock reset. The

verification by a person. Note that the alarm relay and communicator will respond
to the initial alarm immediately. In addition, Zone 98 will activate. This zone can
be programmed to a control module which may be used to activate a sounder or
indicator which the installer designates as a Presignal indication (do not use a Notification Appliance Circuit for this purpose). To enable the Pre-signal feature,
press 3 while viewing Edit Detector Screen #3 until the display reads Pre-signal Ye s. Each press of the 3 key will cause the display to toggle between Pre-signal Yes
and Pre-signal No. Refer to "Presignal" on page 119.
For example, if a detector with address 005 is to be configured for Pre-Signal
operation:
Select Pre-signal Yes when editing the detector set to address 005
Program the desired zone or zones to be activated by this detector, in this
example Z001
Program an output, such as a control module that is to be activated by detector
005 by assigning the same zone to it; in this example Z001
Program an output, such as a control module, for Pre-signal activation by
assigning zone Z98 to it. This control module may be connected to a signaling
device used to indicate a Pre-signal condition (do not use a Notification

Enable zones Z001 and Special Purpose Zone Pre-signal 98 and set the Pre-
signal delay timer to some value
With the preceding program settings, when the detector with address 005 is
activated, zone Z98 will cause its associated control module to activate
immediately, sounding the connected signaling device to indicate the Pre-signal
condition. Following the Pre-signal delay time, zone Z001 will cause its associated

during an alarm and every two minutes during a trouble condition, after the
Alarm Silence or Acknowledge key is pressed. The piezo will continue to sound
at these rates until the alarm or trouble condition is cleared. If the trouble
condition is not cleared within 24 hours, the panel will reactivate the trouble
sounder and retransmit the trouble condition to the central station if connected.
•Banner: This option allows the user to change the top line of the LCD display
from the factory default readout of FIRE LITE ALARMS INC to a user defined
readout when the control panel is in Normal condition.
•Tim e-Date: This feature allows the programmer to set the time, display format
(24 hr or 12 hr), date and daylight savings time feature into the FACP memory
•Tim ers: This option allows the programmer to set the PAS (Positive Alarm
Sequence) time delay, Pre-Signal time delay and Waterflow time delay.
•NACs: This feature allows the programmer to configure the control panel
Notification Appliance Circuits for a variety of options, such as circuit type,
silenceable/nonsilenceable, autosilence, coding, silence inhibit, zone assignment
and enable/disable.
•Relays: This option allows programming of two onboard relays for activation by
various control panel events, such as alarm, trouble, supervisory, etc.
•Canadian Option: This option allows the automatic programming of ionization
smoke detector sensitivity thresholds to Canadian specifications.

activate with a 1st stage output upon activation of any alarm point
2. If the activated alarm point is directly mapped to a zone which is programmed
to an on-board NAC, that NAC will go directly to 2nd stage coding output.
All other NACs not directly mapped to the activated alarm point’s zone but
assigned to Zone 0 will activate with a 1st stage output
3. If, after the programmed time of 3 or 5 minutes, the Acknowledge switch has
not
been pressed, all NACs presently in 1st stage activation will go to 2nd
stage activation
4. If an Acknowledge switch has been pressed, any NACs currently in 1st stage
activation will remain in 1st stage. Pressing the Acknowledge switch does
not affect NACs already in 2nd stage activation
5. If another alarm point is activated and the countdown timer is counting, the
alarm point will have no effect on the NACs unless the alarm point’s zones
are directly mapped to one of the NACs, in which case it will follow the
procedure outlined in step 2
6. If another alarm point is activated and the countdown timer has stopped
counting due to the Acknowledge switch being pressed, the countdown timer
will restart and the NACs will respond as outlined in step 2. NACs already in
2nd stage activation will not be affected
7. Any control modules assigned to special Zone 99 will be activated either by
direct mapping of an input device programmed to Zone 99 or if the timer
counts down to zero
8. Control modules that are programmed to the same zone as the activated input
device will not be delayed for activation
