• 60-second supervisory check-in. (The transmitter sends a supervisory signal every 60 seconds. Some transmitters check in at 150-second intervals.) The receiver, with a fixed 4-hour supervisory window, will declare a programmed point inactive if no transmission is received during every 4 hour window.

• The Fault Output is Latching for low battery or tamper faults. It is Follower for Inactive faults.

• The Alarm Output is user-selectable to be follower, momentary, latching or toggle.

FA transmitters have non-volatile memory.

Replacing one transmitter with another:

1) Before programming a new transmitter to a previously used point, delete the first transmitter as shown below.

2) Pull the battery from the first transmitter to prevent it from continuing to transmit with the same point identification.

WARNING: Inovonics strongly advises against using more than one transmitter per point.

3) supervision is lost and the possibility exists that alarm transmissions might be missed or cancelled by concurrent restoral or supervisory signals from identically programmed transmitters.

panel will typically supply power and ground to the receiver. When the ground supplied to the receiver is common to the return loops of the hardwire panel, use one wire to connect each of the FA404 receiver outputs to the zone input of the panel. Supervision resistors in N/O loops must be placed in parallel. Supervision resistance in N/C loops must be in series. The examples below show typical connections of both the FA404 and the FA404R.
