Document Conventions
Circuits and Zones
The term circuits refers to an actual electrical interface, initiating (detection), indicating (signal), or relay.
The term 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.
On the FleX-Net
inputs and outputs, and addressable inputs and outputs may be grouped together to form logical zones.
Wiring Styles
Initiating circuits are configured by default as Class B (Style B). They may be configured as Class A (Style D) as
described in System Configuration. This operation uses odd and even pairs of two-wire Class B (Style B) circuits to
make one four-wire Class A (Style D) circuit, thus cutting in half the number of available initiating circuits.
TM
, circuits can be hardwired inputs and outputs or addressable inputs and outputs. Both hardwired
Indicating circuits (NACs) may be individually wired as Class A (Style Z) or Class B (Style Y) without affecting the
number of circuits available.
Addressable Loops may be configured system wide as Class B (Style 4) or Class A (Style 6). With the addition of
isolators, a Class A (Style 6) will become a Class A (Style 7).

Chassis Installation
1. Group the incoming wires through the top of the enclosure to prepare it for wiring the modules. Do not run the
wires in-between the modules since it could cause a short circuit.
2. Use a wire tie to group wires for easy identification and neatness.
3. Be sure to connect a solid earth ground (from building system ground / to a cold water pipe) to the chassis
earth ground mounting lug, and to connect the earth ground wire lugs from the main chassis to the ground
screw on the backbox.
4. Mount chassis FX-2003-12N into backbox BBX-1024 using the supplied hexnuts as shown in Figure 6 below.

The FX-2003-12N or FX-2017-12N Main Chassis come pre-assembled with a main panel, display components and
boards. Install the adder modules of different types as shown in the diagrams on the following pages.
Notes: For many adder modules to enable communication from the main module to all of the adder modules, it is
necessary to add a continuity jumper on the last adder module in a chain (see the appropriate module settings
section to verify the location of the continuity jumper on a particular circuit adder module). Only the last circuit
adder module should have a jumper plug on its continuity jumper; all others must be left without a jumper plug.

Figure 19: Fan Damper Control Display Module (FDX-008/KI)
There are two models of the Fan Damper Control Display modules available. The FDX-008 provides switch control
and LED indication of 8 fan damper zones. The FDX-008KI provides switch control of 7 fan damper zones with the
eighth zone activated by keyswitch. LED indication is provided for all 8 fan damper zones on the FDX-008KI. Both
the FDX-008 and the FDX-008KI are used in conjunction with an FX-2000N Fire Alarm Control Panel.
Fan Damper Operation
The FDX-008 Fan Damper Control Display module has eight configurable output circuits, each with a three position
switch. The FDX-008KI operates in the same manner as the FDX-008 except zone 8 is controlled by a remote
keyswitch. Each switch has an ON and OFF position, plus an AUTO position. If the switch is placed in the AUTO
position, the output will activate as programmed or configured. The output can be manually turned ON or OFF by
placing the switch in the ON or OFF position, respectively.
Basically each switch can be configured to operate multiple fans or dampers. For each switch, there are 3
operations provided; outputs to turn ON, same outputs to turn OFF and inputs to bypass.
An example of the most common use of the FDX-008 or FDX-008KI Fan Damper Control Display module is to
operate exhaust fans and confirm fan operation (via monitor modules). See FDX-008 Block Diagram on the next
page for a block diagram of fan and monitor set up.
Example
As shown in the figure to the right, Parking Garage #1 has 3 exhaust fans. The three
position switch is configured to operate (to turn ON) fans 1, 2 and 3 in stairwell #1. The
switch is set in the AUTO position. Upon activation (via alarm or some other
programmed trigger) with the switch in AUTO, the 3 fans (1,2, and 3) in stairwell #1 are
turned ON automatically. Monitor modules in the Parking Garage #1 detect that all 3
fans are operating, therefore the ON LED will illuminate steadily. If one of the fans did
not turn ON (due to malfunction), both the ON and OFF LEDs will flash at the slow
trouble rate. The TRBL (trouble) LED will illuminate steady amber based on feedback
from the monitor module that one or more of the fans is not working.
ON LED shows steady for all outputs operating and confirmed.
OFF LED shows steady for all outputs NOT operating and confirmed.
TRBL LED shows steady for one or more outputs NOT operating and confirmed.

Note: A bypass function always has priority, so that if a circuit is bypassed by moving the switch

other than again moving the switch manually or by un-bypassing the loop.

Before mounting the FDX-008KI module, if a keyswitch is to be connected, wire the keyswitch to terminals at TS1
as shown in Figure 21below. Mount the FDX-008 and FDX-008KI Fan Damper Control Display modules in any
position on the front part of the FX-2000N chassis and backbox.
Figure 21: FDX-008KI Fan Damper Control Display Module
Note: There are also terminals located behind TS1 on the other side of the board for the convenience of
wiring the keyswitch. The last fan damper zone in the bottom right position of the FDX-008KI is
controlled by the keyswitch.

Components
There are four green LEDs on the board, one for each signal zone. The LED will illuminate or flash following the
signal rate sent to its zone. It will be off when the system is normal and they will illuminate when a signal zone is
activated. The LED does not reflect what is happening on the signal zone, just that it is receiving data to activate
that signal zone.
Operation
There are two modes of operation for this module. The basic mode of operation does not involve any isolators
connected to the signal zones. For this case, leave jumpers JW2, JW3, JW4 and JW5 as they come on pins 2 and
3, and do not make any connection to terminal block J11. The second mode provides mode is used when isolators
are to be connected to the signal circuits. For further information on bell cut relays or isolators, please refer to the
specific fire alarm panel manual or the isolator instruction manual.

module. One power cable is supplied with this module.
The RS-485 cable comes attached at P3 and is either connected to P3 of the main
fire alarm controller module or connected from the previous loop controller module
or other adder board. If the next loop controller module is used, connect the
RS-485 out at P4 to the next loop controller module; if it is not used, leave without
connection.
Use the DIP switches to set the binary address of the board. SW1-1 is the lowest
significant digit and ON is active. For example, an address of two would be created
by turning SW1-1 OFF, SW1-2 ON and DIP switches SW1-3 to SW1-8 OFF. Refer
to Appendix C for DIP switch settings.
This is the addressable loop for all initiating devices. Wire the loop as shown in
Figures 34, 35 and 36.
Loop 2:
Jumpers:
This is the addressable loop for all initiating devices. Wire the loop as shown in
Figures 34, 35 and 36.
A jumper is provided at JW2 for normal operation. To reset the board, leave the
jumper at JW2 and momentarily short the pins at position JW1.

Before Turning the Power On
1. To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the
main AC supply.
2. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.
3. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.
4. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged in properly.
5. Check all jumpers and switches for proper setting.
6. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.
7. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe). Refer to NFPA 70.
8. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.
Note: When using Class A and isolators on an addressable loop, configure system as Class B, wire loop as
Class A, except do not connect the last device back to the panel. Do a system checkout. Then
connect the return of the Class A circuit and configure as Class A.
Power-Up Procedure
1. After completing the above procedures, power up the panel (AC only). The green AC On LED and the Common
Trouble LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound.
2. Press the System Reset button. Since the batteries are not connected, the Battery Trouble LED should
illuminate, the trouble buzzer should sound intermittently, and the Common Trouble LED should flash.
3. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity: the red wire is positive (+) and the black wire is negative
(-). All indicators should extinguish except for the AC On LED and the LCD should show a normal status
condition.
4. Auto-Configure or PC Configure the fire alarm control panel as described in the Configurator Guide.
Troubleshooting
Message Description
Normally when a circuit trouble occurs, its designated trouble indicator will be illuminated,
as well as the Common Trouble indicator and Trouble buzzer. To correct the fault, check
Circuit Trouble
Ground Fault
Battery Trouble
for open wiring on that particular circuit loop or see if the circuit disconnect switch is in the
ON or CLOSED position. Note: disconnecting a circuit will cause a system trouble (off-
normal position).
The FX-2000N panel has a Common Ground Fault Detector. To correct the fault, check for
any external wiring touching the chassis or other earth ground connection.
Check for the presence of batteries and their condition. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will
cause a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace the batteries as soon
as possible.

If the Buzzer is turned on in response to a Non-Latching Trouble or Supervisory, it
will be turned off if the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason
for it to be on.
The AC On Indicator is activated steady green while the main AC power is within
acceptable levels. It is turned off when the level falls below the power-fail threshold
and the panel is switched to standby (battery) power.
The Common Alarm LED flashes red whenever the Panel is in Alarm. An alarm
results from any alarm on any point or input programmed as Alarm or activation of
the manual red General Alarm Button (if the Panel is set for Two Stage Operation).
The Alarm Queue LED will go steady, once all alarms in the queue have been
reviewed using the Alarm Queue button. Since all Alarms are latched until the Panel
is reset, the Common Alarm LED will remain on until then.
The Common Supv. (Supervisory) LED flashes amber at the Fast Flash Rate when
there is a Supervisory Alarm in the Panel, as the result of any Latching or NonLatching Supervisory Circuit. The LED turns off if all Non-Latching Supervisory
Circuits are restored and there are no Latching Supervisory Circuits active. The
Supv. Queue LED will go steady, once all supervisory alarms in the supervisory
queue have been reviewed using the Supv. Queue button. Latching Supervisory
Alarms remain active until the Panel is reset.
The Common Trouble LED flashes amber at the Trouble Flash Rate when there is
any Trouble condition being detected on the panel. It is turned off when all NonLatching Troubles are cleared. The Trouble Queue LED will go steady, once all
troubles in the trouble queue have been reviewed using the Trouble Queue button.
The Monitor Trouble Indicator flashes amber at the Trouble Flash Rate when there is
any Monitor condition being detected on the panel. It is turned off when all Monitors
are cleared.
The CPU Fault Indicator is flashed yellow at the Trouble Flash Rate if the CPU is
faulty.
If the Panel is configured as Two Stage, the Acknowledge Indicator flashes amber at
the Fast Flash Rate while the Auto General Alarm Timer is timing out. It turns on
steady amber when that Timer is cancelled by activating the Acknowledge or Signal
Silence buttons. If the Auto General Alarm Timer times-out and puts the Panel into
General Alarm, the Indicator is turned off.
In Two Stage Operation only, the General Alarm Indicator is activated steady red
when General Alarm is activated due to the red General Alarm button being pushed,
a General Alarm Initiating Circuit being activated, or the Auto General Alarm Timer
timing out. Once the General Alarm Indicator has been turned on it will stay active
until the Panel is reset.
The Signal Silence indicator is flashed amber, at the trouble rate when Indication
Circuits are Silenced either by the Signal Silence button, or by the Auto Signal
Silence Timer. It is turned off when the Signals are re-sounded by a subsequent
Alarm.
The Ground Fault Indicator flashes amber at the Trouble Rate when the Ground
Fault Detector detects a Ground Fault on any field wiring. It turns off immediately
when the Ground Fault is cleared.

System Reset Button
The System Reset button causes the Fire Alarm Control Panel, and all Circuits, to be reset
• Resets all Latching, Trouble Conditions
• Resets all Initiating Circuits
• Resets 4-Wire Smoke Supply and Aux. Power Supply
• Turns off all NACs
• Turns off Signal Silence, Ack & GA Indicators
• Turns off Fire Drill
• Stops and resets all Timers
• Processes inputs as new events
• Aux Disconnect is not affected
• Reset cannot be activated until the Signal Silence Inhibit timer has expired.
Signal Silence Button
Activation of the Signal Silence button when the Panel is in Alarm, turns on the Signal Silence Indicator and
deactivates any Silenceable NACs. Non-Silenceable Circuits are unaffected. Signals will re-sound upon any
subsequent Alarm. This button does not function during any configured Signal Silence Inhibit Timer period. It also
does not function if the NACs are active as the result of a Fire Drill. In a Two Stage System, if the Auto General
Alarm Timer has timed out, this Signal Silence button also performs the same function as the Acknowledge button.
Fire Drill Button
The Fire Drill button activates all programmed and non-Disconnected NACs, but does not transmit any Alarms via
the City Tie, or Common Alarm Relay. Fire Drill may be programmed to operate specific NACs. Fire Drill is cancelled
by pressing the button again (toggle switch), or if the Panel goes into a real Alarm.
Acknowledge Button (Two Stage Only)
If the Panel is not configured for Two Stage Operation, this button does nothing. If the Panel is configured for Two
Stage Operation, activation of the Acknowledge button while the Auto General Alarm Timer is timing (there is an
Alarm in the Panel, but it is still in the First Stage), that timer is cancelled, and the Acknowledge Indicator is on
steady amber.
General Alarm Button (Two Stage Only)
If the Panel is not configured for Two Stage Operation, this button does nothing. If the Panel is configured for Two
Stage Operation, activation of the General Alarm button immediately sends the Panel into Second Stage - General
Alarm. It will also re-activate the Signals if they have been Silenced during General Alarm. The General Alarm
condition remains active until the Panel is reset.
Lamp Test Button
Activation of the Lamp Test button turns all front panel Indicators on steady in whichever colour they would normally
be activated and turns the buzzer on steady. If Lamp Test is active for more than 10 seconds, Common Trouble is
activated.

FleX-NetTMInstallation and Operation Manual
Single Stage Operation
In a single stage system, all alarm inputs are treated in a similar manner. Alarm inputs include any of the following:
non-verified alarm, verified alarm, sprinkler alarm, water-flow alarm, and general alarm circuits. Any of these alarm
inputs occurring when the panel is not already in alarm cause the following:
• The buzzer sounds steadily
• If fire drill is active, it is cancelled
• The Common Alarm LED turns on
• The Common Alarm relay activates if Aux disconnect is not active
• The Auto Signal Silence timer, if configured, starts
• The Signal Silence Inhibit timer, if configured, starts
• All non-disconnected NACs programmed to the input are activated provided that Aux disconnect is not active
• Non-disconnected strobes associated with the input are activated
• Non-disconnected signals associated with the input are activated at the evacuation rate
Subsequent alarms when the panel is already in alarm, cause the following:
• The alert buzzer sounds steadily
• If Signals have been silenced, they are resounded, the Signal Silence LED turns off, and the Auto Signal
Silence timer, if configured, is restarted
• Any additional non-disconnected strobes associated with the input are activated continuously
• Any additional non-disconnected signals associated with the new input are activated at the evacuation rate
Two Stage Operation
In a two stage system, alarm inputs are either first stage (alert) inputs or second stage (general alarm) inputs. First
stage inputs include inputs from the following types of circuits: non-verified alarm, verified alarm, sprinkler alarm,
and water-flow alarm. Second stage inputs include alarms on the general alarm circuits, activation of the General
Alarm button, or expiration of the Auto General Alarm timer. Any of these alarm inputs occurring when the panel is
not already in alarm cause the following:
• The buzzer sounds steadily
• If fire drill is active, it is cancelled
• The Common Alarm LED turns on
• The Common Alarm relay activates if Aux disconnect is not active
• The Auto Signal Silence timer, if configured, starts
• The Signal Silence Inhibit timer, if configured, starts
• All Non-disconnected indicating programmed to the input are activated provided that Aux disconnect is not
active
If the alarm is a second stage alarm,
• All non-disconnected strobe circuits are activated continuously
• All non-disconnected signal circuits are activated at the evacuation rate
• The General Alarm LED turns on.
If the alarm is a First Stage alarm,
• Non-disconnected strobe circuits programmed to that circuit are activated continuously
• Non-disconnected signal circuits programmed to that circuit are activated with the alert code
• The Auto General Alarm timer, if configured, starts
• The Acknowledge LED starts flashing.
Subsequent First Stage alarms when the panel is already in alarm, cause the following:
67
Page 72
Indicators, Controls, and Operation
• The buzzer sounds steadily
• If signals have been silenced as a result of the silence button or the Auto signal silence timer, signals are
resounded as they were before signal silence, the Signal Silence LED turns off, and the Auto Signal Silence
timer, if configured, is restarted
• If the panel is not already in General Alarm, additional non-disconnected signals programmed to the new input
are activated with the Alert Code (see Indicating (Signal) Circuit Types section).
• If the panel is not already in General Alarm and if the Acknowledge LED is on steady indicating that the Auto
General Alarm timer has been Acknowledged the timer is restarted and the Acknowledge LED is extinguished.
A second stage alarm (general alarm) when the panel is already in alarm causes the following:
• The buzzer sounds steadily
• All non-disconnected signals are activated at the evacuation rate
• If the Signal Silence LED is on, it turns off and the Auto Signal Silence timer, if configured, is restarted
• The Acknowledge LED if on, turns off
Alarm inputs are latching: they remain active until system reset.
Note: If the system is configured for correlations, any second stage / general alarm condition activates all
NACs whether they are correlated or not.
Pre-Signal Operation
To configure the panel for pre-signal, all alarm inputs must be correlated to one NAC circuit that is wired to a
Notification Appliance in the Control Room that is constantly monitored by an Operator. Using the FX-2000N
Configurator, “Subsequent Alarm” in “Common System Status” must be correlated to turn on the Remaining NAC
circuits in the system. To confirm the alarm (i.e. subsequent alarm) the operator can press the “General Alarm”
button on the panel or activate a Manual Station in the Control Room.
Note: Pre-Signal is not permitted to be used in Canada, unless approved by the AHJ.

Circuit Types
The term circuits refers to an actual electrical interface, either initiating (detection) or indicating (signal). The term 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.
Initiating (Detection) Circuit Type
Initiating (Detection) Circuit
Type
Non-Verified Alarm
Verified Alarm
Water-Flow Alarm
Description
This is a "normal" type of alarm which may have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat
detectors attached. Any activation of these devices will immediately result in an alarm
condition in the fire alarm control panel. An alarm condition causes the associated
circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.
These alarms are verified by a reset and timing procedure, and may have Manual
Stations, smoke detectors attached. Any activation of Manual Stations will result in an
alarm condition in the fire alarm control panel within four seconds. Smoke detectors will
be verified for a real alarm within 60 seconds depending upon the start-up time of the
smoke detectors being used. If four seconds is too long a response time for pull
stations, then they should be wired separately on a non-verified alarm circuit. An alarm
condition causes the associated circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to
illuminate red. Verified Alarm is not permitted for heat detectors, 4-wire smoke detectors
and smoke detectors with built-in alarm verification. Refer to Appendix D Alarm
Verification for details.
An alarm for water-flow sensors. These alarms are identical to normal non-verified
alarms except that any NACs programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are nonsilenceable. Also, if water-flow retard operation is enabled, then these circuits are
sampled every one second; if ten samples are active within any 15 second interval, the
water-flow alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the associated
circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.
Note: Do not use the retard operation with any external retarding device;
maximum retard may not exceed 120 seconds.
Sprinkler Alarm
General Alarm
Non-Latching Supervisory
Latching Supervisory
An alarm for sprinkler flow sensors. These alarms are identical to normal non-verified
alarms unless the water-flow retard operation is enabled. If water-flow retard operation
is enabled, then these circuits are sampled every one second; if ten samples are active
within any 15 second interval, the sprinkler alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm
condition causes the associated circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to
illuminate red.
Note: Do not use the retard operation with any external retarding device;
maximum retard may not exceed 120 seconds.
These alarms provide remote general alarm such as for remote key switches. In a two
stage system, these inputs perform exactly the same function as the front panel or
remote annunciator general alarm button. In a single stage system, these inputs act the
same as non-verified alarms, but if correlations are enabled, general alarm initiating
circuits are correlated to all NACs.
These alarms are for supervisory devices. An activation on these circuits will cause the
Circuit Status LED and the Common Supervisory LED to illuminate amber. The buzzer
will sound continuously. If the circuit activation is removed, the supervisory condition will
clear (so long as there are no other supervisory conditions in the system) and the circuit
Status LED will extinguish.
These alarms are for supervisory devices. An activation on these circuits will cause the
Circuit Status LED and the Common Supervisory LED to illuminate amber. The buzzer
will sound continuously. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will
not clear.

Installing and Removing Amplifiers
ATTENTION: Improper installation or excessive force will damage the motherboard and modules being
installed or removed.
Installing QAA Amplifier Modules
1. Hold the amplifier to be installed by the backplate edges. Do not handle, push or pull any of the components on
the amplifier (especially not the transformer) as this will damage those components.
2. Line up the amplifier being installed with the two plastic runners on the card cage and slide the amplifier back
to the point where the amplifier just about touches the pins on the QMB-5000N/B motherboards.
3. Make sure that the amplifier is square with the motherboard.
4. Gently push the amplifier forward to line up the amplifier connector with the motherboard pins. Once you have
a sense of feel that the amplifier connector and the motherboard pins are properly lined up, place one thumb
on the top edge of the backplate and the other thumb on the bottom of the backplate and carefully push the
amplifier in. You should hear a slight thud sound when the amplifier is snapped into place.
Note: If the amplifier connector is not properly lined up with the motherboard pins, or if excessive force is
used, the pins on the motherboard can be damaged.
Removing the QAA Amplifier Modules
1. Disconnect all cables connected to the amplifier. Do not handle, push or pull any of the components on the
amplifier (especially not the transformer) as this will damage those components.
2. Place the forefinger of one hand on the top inside edge of the front heat sink (the heat sinks are the two long
silver channel-like metal covers opposite the backplate) and the forefinger of the other hand on the bottom
edge of the backplate behind the card cage frame.
3. Carefully pull and rock the amplifier forward until the amplifier connector is disconnected from the motherboard
pins.
4. Holding the amplifier firmly by the backplate edges, slide the amplifier forward and completely remove it from
the card cage.
ATTENTION: Power should be disconnected before removing and inserting modules.
