Installation Precautions - Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free
installation with long-term reliability: WARNING - Several different sources of power
can be connected 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 manuals are
read and understood. CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after Software
Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product must be tested in
accordance with NFP A 72 af ter any programming operation or change in site-specific
software. Re-acceptance 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 within the range of 0°C-49°C (32°F-120°F) or humidity within the range
of 10%-93% at 30°C (86°F) noncondensing. 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 its peripherals be installed in an environment with a normal room
temperature of 15-27º C/60-80º 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. 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. Overhead or
outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to
nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Services Department if any
problems are anticipated or encountered. Remove DC power 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, or 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. Fire alarm control panels contain 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 (Fire Alarm Control Panel) operation and reliability
depend upon proper installation.
While installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance rates possible, 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. Any fire alarm system may fail
for a variety of reasons: Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot
reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in walls, or 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. Furthermore, all types of smoke detectors, including ionization and
photoelectric types, have sensing limitations. No type of smoke detector can sense
every kind of fire caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed,
violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials,
overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson.
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
developing 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. 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. 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. 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.
malfunctions, however, is inadequate maintenance. All devices and system wiring
should be tested and maintained by professional fire alarm installers following written
procedures supplied with each device. System inspection and testing should be
scheduled monthly or as required by national and/or local fire codes. Adequate
written records of all inspections should be kept.

Introduction
Limitations of Fire Alarm Systems
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
Guide for the 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 or give early warning in as many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm
systems are designed to provide 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. For example:
•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.
In general, smoke detectors on one level of a structure cannot be expected to sense
fires developing on another level.
•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 are subject to false alarms and nuisance alarms and may have
been disconnected by users. For example, a smoke detector located in or near a
kitchen may go into nuisance alarm during normal operation of kitchen
appliances. In addition, dusty or steamy environments may cause a smoke
detector to falsely alarm. If the location of a smoke detector causes an abundance
of false alarms or nuisance alarms, do not disconnect the smoke detector; call a
professional to analyze the situation and recommend a solution.
•Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning of fires caused
by arson, children playing with matches (especially within bedrooms), smoking in
bed, violent explosions (caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable
1512091-5
Page 18
IntelliKnight 5820XL Installation Manual
materials, etc.).
•Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and are designed to alarm
only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate or reaches a
predetermined level. Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.
•Warning devices (including horns, sirens, and bells) may not alert people or wake
up sleepers who are located on the other side of closed or partially open doors. A
warning device that activates on a different floor or level of a dwelling or structure
is less likely to awaken or alert people. Even persons who are awake may not
notice the warning if the alarm is muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air
conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Audible warning devices may
not alert the hearing-impaired (strobes or other devices should be provided to
warn these people). Any warning device may fail to alert people with a disability,
deep sleepers, people who have recently used alcohol or drugs, or people on
medication or sleeping pills.
Please note that:
i)Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in people with con-
ditions such as epilepsy.
ii) Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a fire alarm sig-
nal, do not respond or comprehend the meaning of the signal. It is the property
owner’s responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training exercises to make
people aware of fire alarm signals and instruct on the proper reaction to alarm
signals.
iii) In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause temporary or
permanent hearing loss.
•Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central
station may be out of service or temporarily out of service. For added protection
against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are
recommended.
•System components, though designed to last many years, can fail at any time. As
a precautionary measure, it is recommended that smoke detectors be checked,
maintained, and replaced per manufacturer’s recommendations.
•System components will not work without electrical power. If system batteries are
not serviced or replaced regularly, they may not provide battery backup when AC
power fails.
•Environments with high air velocity or that are dusty or dirty require more frequent
maintenance.
In general, fire alarm systems and devices will not work without power and will not
function properly unless they are maintained and tested regularly.
While installing a fire alarm system may make the owner eligible for a lower insurance
rate, an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance.
Property owners should
continue to act prudently in protecting the premises and the people in their premises
and should properly insure life and property and buy sufficient amounts of liability
insurance to meet their needs.

Introduction
Requirements and recommendations for proper use of fire alarm systems including smoke detectors and other fire alarm devices:
Early fire detection is best achieved by the installation and maintenance of fire
detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the house or building in accordance
with the requirements and recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire
Protection Association Standard 72, National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72), the
manufacturer’s recommendations, State and local codes and the recommendations
contained in Guide for the Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which is made
available at no charge to all installing dealers. For specific requirements, check with
the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (ex. Fire Chief) for fire protection systems.
Requirements and Recommendations include:
•Smoke Detectors shall be installed in sleeping rooms in new construction and it is
recommended that they shall also be installed in sleeping rooms in existing
construction.
•It is recommended that more than one smoke detector shall be installed in a
hallway if it is more than 30 feet long.
•It is recommended that there shall never be less then two smoke detectors per
apartment or residence.
•It is recommended that smoke detectors be located in any room where an alarm
control is located, or in any room where alarm control connections to an AC
source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the
room could prevent the control from reporting a fire.
•All fire alarm systems require notification devices, including sirens, bells, horns,
and/or strobes. In residential applications, each automatic alarm initiating device
when activated shall cause the operation of an alarm notification device that shall
be clearly audible in all bedrooms over ambient or background noise levels (at
least 15dB above noise) with all intervening doors closed.
•It is recommended that a smoke detector with an integral sounder (smoke alarm)
be located in every bedroom and an additional notification device be located on
each level of a residence.
•T o keep your 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 14 of NFPA 72, 2010 edition shall be
followed. A maintenance agreement should be arranged through the local
manufacturer’s representative. Maintenance should be performed annually by
authorized personnel only.
•The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when a fire occurs is
inadequate maintenance. As such, the alarm system should be tested weekly to
make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.

3.4Wiring Specifications
Induced noise (transfer of electrical energy from one wire to another) can interfere
with telephone communication or cause false alarms. To avoid induced noise, follow
these guidelines:
•Isolate input wiring from high current output and power wiring. Do not pull one
multi-conductor cable for the entire panel. Instead, separate the wiring as follows:
High voltageAC power, Terminals 1-3
SLC loopsTerminals 33-36
Audio input/output Phone line circuits,
•Do not pull wires from different groups through the same conduit. If you must run
them together, do so for as short a distance as possible or use shielded cable.
Connect the shield to earth ground at the panel. You must route high and low
voltages separately.
•Route the wiring around the inside perimeter of the cabinet. It should not cross the
circuit board where it could induce noise into the sensitive microelectronics or pick
up unwanted RF noise from the high speed circuits. See Figure 3-1 for an
example.
•High frequency noise, such as that produced by the inductive reactance of a
speaker or bell, can also be reduced by running the wire through ferrite shield
beads or by wrapping it around a ferrite toroid.

3.6Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery
This section is for helping you determine the current draw and standby battery needs
if you are using SK addressable devices (Table 3-2) or SD addressable devices
(Table 3-3).
3.6.1Current Draw Worksheet Requirements
The following steps must be taken when determining 5820XL current draw and
standby battery requirements.
1. You will use the Current Draw Worksheet to determine current draw and standby
battery requirements. Use Table 3-2 if installing SK SLC Devices and Table 3-3 if
installing SD SLC Devices. For the 5820XL, the worst case current draw is listed
for the panel, addressable devices, and all SBUS expanders. Fill in the number of
addressable devices and expanders that will be used in the system and compute
the current draw requirements for alarm and standby. Record this information in
the Current Draw Worksheet on Line A.
2. Add up the current draw for all auxiliary devices and record in the table on Line B.
3. Add up the current draw for all notification appliances and record in the table on
Line C.
4. For notification appliances and auxiliary devices not mentioned in the manual,
refer to the device manual for the current ratings.
5. Make sure that the total alarm current you calculated, including current for the
panel itself, does not exceed 6.0 A. This is the maximum alarm current for the
5820XL control panel.
If the current is above 6.0 A you will need to use a notification power expander(s)
such as the Silent Knight 5495 or the 5895XL intelligent power expander, to distribute the power loads so that the 5820XL or the power expanders do not exceed
their power ratings. Refer to the current draw worksheets provided with the 5495
or the 5895XL manuals so you do not exceed their power ratings.
6. Complete the remaining instructions in the appropriate Current Draw Worksheet
for determining battery size requirements.

3.6.1.1Current Draw Worksheet for SK SLC Devices
Use Table 3-2 to determine current requirements during alarm/battery standby
operation when SK SLC devices are installed. You can install up 99 SK detectors per
loop (396 max per panel) and 99 SK modules per loop (396 max per panel). Copy this
section if additional space is required.

removed during that time. However, during normal operation, door holders draw current and must be included in the
6.0A total current that can be drawn from the panel.
3. Use next size battery with capacity greater than required.
4. SK-Beam-T draws a maximum of 500mA from Auxiliary power only when the test feature is used. this should be
considered when determining auxiliary power capacity but not calculated into current requirements for day to day
operation.
5. The SK-Duct housing contains a vacant mount for a SK-Relay (sold separately). Current draw for the SK-Relay is
calculated by increasing the SK-Relay row of the calculation sheet by one for each SK-Relay used with a SK-Duct.

Section 4
Control Panel Installation
Caution!
To avoid the risk of electrical shock and damage to the unit, power should be OFF at the control
panel while installing or servicing.
4.1Mounting the Control Panel Cabinet
Read the environmental specifications in Section 3.2 before mounting the control
panel cabinet. This will ensure that you select a suitable location.
The panel should be accessible to main drop wiring runs. It should be mounted as
close to the center of the building as possible and located within a secured area, but
should be accessible for testing and service.
Mount the control panel cabinet so it is firmly secured to the wall surface. When
mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is expected, attach a piece of 3/4inch plywood to the concrete surface and then attach the cabinet to the plywood. Also
mount any other modules to the plywood.
The cabinet can be surface- or flush-mounted. If you flush-mount the cabinet, the
hole for the enclosure should be 14.75" W x 25" H x 4" D. Do NOT flush-mount in a
wall designated as a fire break.
4.1.1Preventing Water Damage
Water damage to the fire system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet
through the conduits. Conduits that are installed to enter the top of the cabinet are
most likely to cause water problems. Installers should take reasonable precautions to
prevent water from entering the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under
warranty.
4.1.2Removing the 5820XL Assembly from the Housing
If it should ever be necessary to remove the control panel assembly from the cabinet
for repair, do so by unscrewing the nuts that connect the control panel assembly to
the cabinet. Do not attempt to disassemble the circuit boards. See Section 3.5 for
location of the nuts.

4.3.1RBB Accessory Cabinet
The Model RBB Accessory cabinet can be used when you are required to use backup
batteries that are too large to fit into the main control panel cabinet.
The RBB cabinet holds batteries up to the 35 AH size. The RBB dimensions are 16"
W x 10" H x 6" D (40.64 cm W x 25.4 cm H x 15.24 cm D).
4.3.1.1Installing the RBB Accessory Cabinet and Batteries
To properly install the accessory cabinet and backup batteries, follow these steps:
1. Mount the accessory cabinet. See Figure 4-3 for the four cabinet mounting holes.
•If mounting onto drywall the accessory cabinet must be mounted onto 3/4-inch
plywood. This is necessary because the weight of the batteries inside the
accessory cabinet could cause the cabinet to pull away from the drywall.
•When mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is expected, attach a
piece of ¾" plywood to the concrete surface and then attach the RBB cabinet
to the plywood.
•If using the battery cable extenders provided (P /N 140643), mount the RBB
cabinet no more than 18" away from the main control panel cabinet. This will
ensure that the battery cables reach the battery terminals.

4. Connect battery leads to the backup battery terminals. See Figure 4-5.
•Observe the proper polarity to prevent damage to the batteries or the control
panel.
5. Insert the RBB cover screws into the cover mounting holes. See Figure 4-5.
•Screw the cover screw 3/4 of the way into the cover mounting hole.
6. Align the cover plate mounting keyhole over the cover mounting screws. See Figure 4-6.

4.4SBUS Wiring
This section contains information on calculating SBUS wire distances and the types
of wiring configurations (Class A and B).
4.4.1Calculating Wiring Distance for SBUS Modules
The following instructions will guide you in determining the type of wire and the
maximum wiring distance that can be used with control panel SBUS accessory
modules.
To calculate the wire gauge that must be used to connect SBUS modules to the
control panel, it is necessary to calculate the total worst case current draw for all
modules on a single 4-conductor bus. The total worst case current draw is calculated
by adding the individual worst case currents for each module. The individual worst
case values are shown in the table below.
Note: Total worst case current draw on a single SBUS cannot exceed 1 amp. If a large number of ac-
cessory modules are required, and the worst case current draw will exceed the 1 amp limit, then
the current draw must be distributed using 5895XL Power Expanders. Each 5895XL Power Expander provides an additional SBUS, with an additional 1 amp of SBUS cu rrent. Wiring d istance
calculations are done separately for each 5895XL, and separately for the control pan el itself.
Model NumberWorst Case Current Draw
5860 Fire Annunciator.100 amps
5824 Serial/Parallel Printer Interface Module.040 amps
5880 LED I/O Module.250 amps
5865 LED Annunciator.200 amps
5895XL Intelligent Power Supply.010 amps
5496 Intelligent Power Supply.010 amps
Note: Refer to Table 3-3 for maximum number of each type of device that can be used per system.
After calculating the total worst case current draw, Table 4-1 specifies the maximum
distance the modules can be located from the panel on a single wire run. The table
ensures 6.0 volts of line drop maximum. In general, the wire length is limited by
resistance, but for heavier wire gauges, capacitance is the limiting factor.
4-6151209
Page 47
Control Panel Installation
These cases are marked in the chart with an asterisk (*). Maximum length can never
be more than 6,000 feet, regardless of gauge used. The formula used to generate
this chart is shown in the note below.

Wiring Distance calculation example:
Suppose a system is configured with the following SBUS modules:
2 - Module 5860 Fire Annunciator
1 - 5895XL Intelligent Power Expander
1 - 5865 LED Annunciator
1 - 5824 Serial/Parallel Interface Module
The total worst case current is calculated as follows:
5860 Current Draw = 2 x .100 amps = .200 amps
5895XL Current Draw = 1 x .010 amps= .010 amps
5865 Current Draw= 1 x .200 amps= .200 amps
5824 Current Draw= 1 x .040 amps= .040 amps
Total Worst Case Current Draw= .450 amps
Using this value, and referring to the Wiring Distance table, it can be found that the
available options are:
370 feet maximum using 22 Gauge wire
938 feet maximum using 18 Gauge wire
1493 feet maximum using 16 Gauge wire
2362 feet maximum using 14 Gauge wire

4.8.3LED Wiring
There are four 12-pin connectors on the 5880 board for connecting LEDs. Each LED
gets its power from Pin 11. Internal resistors are sized so that there is approximately
10 mA of current for each LED, no series resistors are required. LED outputs can be
mapped to output circuits. See Section 6 for programming details.
Wire the LEDs as shown in Figure 4-22.
On connector P1, Pin 12 is an open collector output for controlling a PZT. If used, the
5880 PZT will match the PZT pattern of the on-board (or 5860) annunciator.
Note: The circuit connected to “Open Collector Output” (last pin on P1) must be current limited so that
no more than 100 mA of current is allowed to flow into the open collector transistor.

4.12Flexputs
The six Flexput™ circuits are an innovative and versatile feature of the control panel.
They can be used as: Class A or B notification circuits, Class A or B initiation circuits
(either 2 or 4 wire detectors), or as auxiliary power (resettable, continuous, or door
holder).
The polarity of the Flexput terminals differs depending on whether the circuit is
programmed as an input or and output circuit. If the circuit is programmed as an input
circuit (for a detector or normally open contact) the X terminal is negative and O
terminal is positive. If the circuit is programmed as an output circuit (Aux power or
NAC) then the X terminal is positive and the O terminal is negative.
This section of the manual explains how to install conventional notification appliances
and initiating devices to be used with the system.

4.12.5.1 Door Holder Power
Door holder power is intended for fire door applications. When there are no alarms in
the system and the panel has AC power, door holder circuits have 24-volt power
present at their terminals. Any alarm will cause power to disconnect. Power will be reapplied when the system is reset. If AC power is off for more than 15 seconds, the
auxiliary door holder power will be disconnected to conserve the battery backup.
When AC power is restored, power is immediately restored to the door holder circuits.
Use a UL listed door holder ESL DHX-1224, for this application.
4.12.5.2 Constant Power
Use constant power for applications that require a constant auxiliary power source.
Power is always present at Constant circuits.

5.5Wiring SK SLC Detectors
This section describes how to install SK heat and smoke detectors. All detectors ship
with installation instructions. Refer to the detector’s installation instructions for more
detailed information.
This information applies to the following SK models:
•SK-Photo Photoelectric Smoke Detector
•SK-Photo-T Photoelectric Smoke Detector with Thermal
•SK-Acclimate Photoelectric Smoke Detector with Thermal
•SK-Heat Fixed Temperature Detector
•SK-Heat-T High Temperature Thermal Detector
•SK-Heat-ROR Rate-of-Rise Thermal Detector
•SK-Ion Ionization Smoke Detector
•SK-FIRE-CO CO Detector
Wiring SK detectors:
1. Wire device bases as shown in Figure 5-4.
2. Set the address for each device as described in Section 5.6.
Figure 5-4 Heat and Smoke Detector Connection to the Panel.
1512095-7
Page 98
IntelliKnight 5820XL Installation Manual
Example 1: Device Set to 01.
Example 2: Device Set to 42.
All dials labeled for ONES
or TENS position.
5.6Addressing SK SLC Devices
All SK devices are addressed using the two rotary dials that appear on the device
board. Use the ONES rotary dial to set the ones place in a one or two digit number,
and use the TENS rotary dial to set the tens place in a two digit number.
SK device addresses are handled differently than SD device addresses. The control
panel recognizes when an SK detector or SK module is installed. For this reason, SK
detectors can be assigned any address from 1 to 99, and SK modules can also be
assigned any address from 1 to 99. For example SK-Photo (detector) can be
addressed as 1 and SK-Monitor (module) and also be addressed as 1. (0 is a invalid
address).
SD detectors and modules use unique addresses 1 through 127.
Example 1: To select device address 1, turn the ONES rotary dial to 1 and the TENS
rotary dial to 0 as shown in Figure 5-5.
Example 2: To select device address 42, turn the ONES rotary dial to 2 and the
TENS rotary dial to 4 as show in Figure 5-5.
