FA-300-6L Installation and Operation Manual
Conventions
Circuits
Refers to an actual electrical interface for Initiating (Detection) and Indicating (Signal) or Relays.
Zone
Is a logical concept for a Fire Alarm Protected Area, and will consist of at least one Circuit.
Often the terms Zone and Circuit are used interchangeably, but in this Manual the term Circuit is used.
Display Points
There is a display point associated with every initiating and indicating circuit of the FA-300 LED Series fire panel.
For an initiating circuit there are two LEDs for every display point: one single color (amber) and one dual color (red/
amber). For an indicating circuit there is only one LED: one single color (amber), for every display point.
Wiring Styles
Initiating and indicating circuits are Class B (Style B and Y). Changing the initiating circuits to Class A requires an
ICAC-306 adder board which will convert SIX initiating zones from Class B (Style B) circuits to Class A (Style D).
This is done without penalizing the number of circuits, which remains the same as in Class B (Style B). Changing
the indicating circuits to Class A requires an OCAC-302 adder board which will convert TWO indicating zones from
Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z).

Indicating circuits must be wired from the OCAC-302 to the main Fire Alarm board. For example indicating circuit 1
positive (red wire) and negative (black wire) is wired from the Class A con verter module to the positive and negative
terminals of Indicating circuit 1 on the Main Fire Alarm board.
The actual indicating zone is wired from the SIGNAL OUT positive and negative to the signaling devices and then
wired back to the SIGNAL RET positive and negative.
RM-306 Six Relay Adder Module
Cable from P1 of the RM-306 is connected to P4 on the Main Fire Alarm Board. The jumpers located above each
relay on the RM-306 are used to configure the relays. The jumpers located below the relays are used to select
either normally open contacts or normally closed contacts.

Table 2: PR-300 jumper settings
P1 Cable connects to P3 on the Main Fire Alarm Board
Cut this jumper for Tr ouble transmi ssion. When this ju mper is cut and a system trou ble occurs, the
JW1
designated terminals will transmit a "zero volts" or "open" circuit. Please note that in normal
condition, the terminals polarity is read exactly as labeled on the circuit board.
Cut this jumper for Trouble tra nsmission of supervisory. When this jumper is cut and a supervisory
JW2
trouble occurs, the designated terminals will transmit a "zero volts" or "open" circuit. Please note
that in normal condition, the terminals polarity is read exactly as labeled on the circuit board.
The Alarm Transmit signal to the PR-300 can be programmed to tu rn OFF when signal silence is active. This allows
the City Tie Box to be manually reset. On subsequent alarms the silenceable signals will resound and the City Tie
Box will be retriggered. See Configuration and CFG-300 Service Tool on page 32 for more information.
The Trouble Transmit signal to the PR-300 can be programmed to delay AC power fail for 0, 8 or 18 hours if this is
the only system trouble. See Configuration and CFG-300 Service Tool on page 32 for more information.
