5.1.1 NAC (Output) Circuits Types
Signal
For audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns. While sounding, these follow the
pattern appropriate for the condition;
•the configured Evacuation Code (default is T emporal Code) during Single-Stage Alarm
•Two-Stage General Alarm
•or the Alert Code during Two-Stage’s Alert (First) Stage.
Strobe
For visual devices such as strobes that use no code pattern (they are continuous) and follow
input contact.
Synchronized Strobes
For visual devices such as strobes that support Mircom/Amseco, System Sensor, Gentex,
Wheelock proprietary code patterns, configure to the appropriate pattern.
DC Power Supply
Uses no code pattern (they are continuous) and cannot be silenced. Configured via DIP
switches and is not allocated an SLC address.
29
Page 30
5.2 Intelligent NAC Expander (INX) Modes
!
!
The INX-10A is capable of synchronizing signal rates internally or receiving the signals
externally. The INX-10A also has the ability to synchronize the signal rates for another INX-
10A in a Master - Slave relationship.
Attention: When using multiple INX-10A panels in a Master - Slave relationship,
always assign a lower address to the master INX-10A panel.
5.2.1 INX Internal Sync Mode
In this mode all signal and sync strobe rates are produced in the INX-10A. When a NAC circuit
is commanded by the FACP to turn on, the NAC output signals are produced based on how
the DIP switches are configured.
The Sync Outputs will be activated when one of the NAC circuits has been activated. If two
stage operation is used, Sync Output1 is to produce the rate for first stage signal and Sync
Output 2 is to produce the second stage signal.
Operation
To enable this mode set DIP SW3, Bit 8 to zero.
For information on configuring signal and strobe rates see Table 8 Setting Alert Rates,
Evacuation Rates, NAC 5 Output Functions on page 42 and Table 9 Setting Strobe Types,
NAC 1-3 Supply Settings, NAC 4 Output Function on page 43.
5.2.2 INX External Sync Mode
When one of the Sync Inputs is activated, the INX-10A outputs follow the signal pattern of the
Sync Input. The INX-10A must be configured as a slave to operate in this mode.
All synchronization signals are supplied from the FACP or Master INX-10A.
To enable this mode for Bell Signals set DIP SW3, Bit 8 to one, and set Alert (DIP SW4, Bits 1-
3) Evacuation (DIP SW4, Bits 4-6) and Strobe (DIP SW5, Bits 1-3) rates to zero. The NAC and
Sync outputs are to follow the Sync Inputs.
To enable this mode for other signals for sync Horn Strobes, set DIP SW3, Bit 8 to one and set
Alert (DIP SW4, Bits 1-3) and Evacuation (DIP SW4, Bits 4-6) to use the Strobe Manufacturer
Sync Rate (1-0-0) and Strobe (DIP SW5, Bits 1-3) to match the protocol being used in the
system. The NAC and Sync Outputs are to follow the Sync Inputs.
If the INX-10A loses synchronization with the FAC P during alarm, the INX-10A will default to
the internal configured rate. A trouble will be generated back to the FACP. The INX-10A will
continue to use the default rate until the FACP is reset.
Attention: External Sync Mode cannot be used in conjunction with Independent
Mode.
30
Page 31
5.2.3 INX Mode with Redundant Input
The system continuously monitors the SLC loop. If there is no activity for a notable time (80
seconds typical), an SLC trouble will be generated. While SLC trouble is active, if either of the
Sync Inputs are activated then all NAC outputs follow.
5.2.4 Independent Mode - Driving Signals and Strobes
The INX-10A can drive Signals and Str obes on separate NAC circuits.
To enabled Independent Mode set SW4 Bit 4-6 to 010, 110, 001, 101, or 011 and set SW5 Bit
1-3 to 100, 110, 001 or 101. When using a Tw o stage application SW4 bits 1-3 are required to
set the alert rate. For a comprehensive description of Independent Mode options see Table 9
Setting Strobe Types, NAC 1-3 Supply Settings, NAC 4 Output Function on page 43.
5.3 Power Supply Modes
In addition to the operation modes above, some or all of the NAC outputs can be configured as
power supply outputs. The circuit ratings are same as the NAC circuits. Three types of power
output can be configured as described below:
Operation
5.3.1 NAC Outputs as Power Supply Outputs
Any NAC output can be configured as a power supply. SLC and Sync Inputs are ignored for
the power supply outputs.
For configuration information see Chapter 6.2.4 Setting Alert Rates, Evacuation Rates, NAC 5
Output Functions on page 42 and Chapter 6.2.5 Setting Strobe Types, NAC 1-3 Supply
Settings, NAC 4 Output Function on page 43.
5.3.2 NAC Outputs for Door Release
Only NAC 4 and/or 5 can config ured for this option, NAC 4 or 5 are turned off (cut su pply)
when any alarm input is active. This is used for devices which must be unpowered during
alarm like door releases. The output will also turned off when the primary power to the INX10A has been lost.
For configuration information see Chapter 6.2.4 Setting Alert Rates, Evacuation Rates, NAC 5
Output Functions on page 42 and Chapter 6.2.5 Setting Strobe Types, NAC 1-3 Supply
Settings, NAC 4 Output Function on page 43.
5.3.3 NAC Outputs for 4 Wire Smoke Supply
Only NAC 4 and/or 5 can configured for this option, NAC 4 and 5 can be selected to turn-of f for
4 seconds when an alarm ends (inputs inactive for more than five seconds). This is typically
used to reset four wires detectors.
For configuration information see Chapter 6.2.5 Setting Strobe Types, NAC 1-3 Supply

Configuration is done via a group a five DIP switches located to the left of the LED display
board.
6.2.1 Setting Loop Base Address, Disabling Addressable Loop Interface
Use DIP switch 1 to
•Enable or disable the addressable loop.
•Set the Base Address of the INX-10A.
To configure the desired address, refer to Figure 13 and Table 5.
To disable, configure all switches to 0.
Table 4 Setting INX-10A Base Address/ Disabling Addressable Loop Interface
Base Address Offset for the FX-2000 and MR-2100/2200/2900 Series Panels
The FX-2000 and MR-2100/2200/2900 series of panels reserve addresses 101 to 199 for
CLIP modules. As a result, you must offset the addresses of INX-10A devices by 100 when
you add these devices on the FX-2000 or MR-2100/2200/2900 configurator.
Base Address Offset for the FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350 Panels
For the FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350, CLIP device addresses start at 201. As a result,
you must offset the addresses of INX-10A devices by 200 when you configure these devices
on the Configurator.
Attention: The FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350 panels must be configured with a
CLIP address space before you can add INX-10A panels to them. See
the following procedure for instructions on how to add a CLIP address
space to an FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350.
To configure an FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350 loop with a CLIP address space
1. Start the Configurator, and then open your job.
2. Select Base I/O from your job tree.
The CLIP/Advance Protocol Address Space configuration window appears. By
default, the entire address space is assigned to AP devices and there is no address
space reserved for CLIP modules. (That is, Allowable CLIP Addresses is set to None
for both Sensors and Modules.) To reserve address space for CLIP devices, you must
add the number of CLIP devices to the AP Start value.
3. Enter 100 in the AP Start column for the loop that your INX-10A is connected to, and
then press the Tab key.
The entries for allowable CLIP addresses for Sensors and Modules change to 1-99 and
201-299, respectively. This allows you to enter 99 CLIP sensors and 99 CLIP modules to
the loop. Your CLIP/Advance Protocol Address window should look similar to Figure 14
(assuming your INX-10A is connected to Loop 2),.
Figure 14 Configurator CLIP/Advance Protocol Device Address Space window

Page 39
Configuration
i
A value of 100 in a loop’s AP Start column configures the FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350
with the maximum address space for CLIP modules (201-299). If you enter a smaller value for
AP Start, the address space for CLIP modules and the number of CLIP devices you can add
are reduced. For example, if you enter 50 in the AP Start column, the CLIP module address
space for the loop changes to 201-249 and you can only configure 49 CLIP modules for that
loop.
Note:For all the FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350 examples in this chapter, the
maximum CLIP device address space is assumed. That is, the AP Start is set to
100 and the CLIP modules address space is 201-299.
Use DIP switch 2 to set device protocols, enable second stage reporting, set AC fail reporting,
enabling or disabling the Charger, and if a battery is installed.

Address Assignments are done via DIP s witch 2(SW 2) which is loc ated to the left of the Main
LED display board. The addresses for the functions are dependant upon the Base Address of
the INX Panel.
There are two types of addressing options
•Basic Reporting
•Enhanced Reporting
In addition, the addressing can be changed by having NACs configured as Power Supplies.
For further information on setting the Base Address of the INX Panel see Figure 13.
Attention: Ensure that the configuration is set correctly on the INX-10A DIP
switches and the Fire Panel Configuration Software.

When adding devices to FX-2000 and MR-2100/2200/2900 configurations, add
100 to the recommended device address (see Figures 36 and 37).
When adding devices to FX-3500/3500RCU and MR-2350 configurations, add
200 to the recommended device address (see Figure 38).
Troubles occurring on a NAC cir cuit are only reported via the first stage address.

7.4 System Checkout
The following are the recommended steps before and during the powering up of the INX-10A.
7.4.1 Before Turning The Power ON
1. T o prevent sparking, DO NOT con nect the batteries first. Conn ecting the batteries is only
to be done after the system has been powered from the main AC Supply.
2. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.
3. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged-in
properly.
4. Check all Jumpers and Switches for proper setting.
5. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.
6. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold wa ter pipe).
7. Close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.
7.4.2 Power-up Procedure
Wiring
1. After completing 7.4.1 Before Turnin g The Power ON procedures, power-up the panel.
The green AC-ON LED should illuminate.
2. Since the batteries are not connecte d, the Battery Trouble LED should illuminate, the
Common Trouble LED should flash and the Trouble Relay (on the main board) will be
active.
3. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity; the red wire is positive (+) and
black wire is negative (-).
4. All indicators should extinguish except for normal power AC-ON green LED.
7.5 Troubleshooting
The following are common methods to solving Circuit Ground Fault, Battery and Common
troubles.
7.5.1 Circuit Trouble
Normally when a circuit trouble occurs, the Common Trouble indicator will be illuminated and
the common trouble relay will be active. Additionally, the corresponding LED on the main
board will be illuminated. This can be viewed by opening the panel and looking the top of the
board. To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop.
7.5.2 Ground Fault
This panel has a common ground fault detector. To correct the fault, check for any external
wiring touching the chassis or other Earth Ground connection.
7.5.3 Battery Trouble
Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause
a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.
90
Page 91
7.5.4 Common Trouble
If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of those above confirming
trouble indicators are on, then check the following for possible fault

8.0 Warranty & Warning Information
Warning Please Read Carefully
Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:
Note to Installers
This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is
your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this
system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system
might fail may result in over-reliance u pon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you
properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.
System Failures
This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are
circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it ma y not provid e protectio n.
Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as
expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:
•Inadequate Installation
A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and
standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial
installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority
Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.
•Power Failure
Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices r eq uire an a deq ua te power
supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates
from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they
must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by
AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not
have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations
which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power
interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the
system operates as intended.
•Failure of Replaceable Batteries
Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life
under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment,
usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large
temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device
has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor
may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in
good operating condition.
•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices
Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects
placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal
interference.
•System Users
A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or
temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the
correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the
alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.
•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices
Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this
system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control pa nel to alert o ccup a nt s of
a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may
have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the
92
Page 93
alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other
side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires
on another level of the residence or building.
•Software
Most MGC products contain software. With re spect to th ose produ ct s, MGC does no t warra nty
that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will
meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software
will meet the user’s requirements. MGC shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns,
interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our
of, or caused by, the software.
Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke
detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely
warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent
explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical
circuits, children playing with matches or arson.
Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, ther e may be circumst ances
when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or
death.
•Alarm Notification Appliances
Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or
waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are
located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants
will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other
noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or
passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.
•Telephone Lines
If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain
periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal
tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.
•Insufficient Time
There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will
not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a
timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to
protect the occupants or their belongings.
•Component Failure
Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system
may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.
•Inadequate Testing
Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be
discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as
required by national standards and the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction and immediately
after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside
the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm
indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.
•Security and Insurance
Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance.
An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renter s, or other occup ant s to act
prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.
93
Page 94
IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system,
batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the
minimization of system failure.
