5824 Serial/Parallel Interface
Gateway Module
Installation Instructions
The 5824 Serial/Parallel Interface Gateway
Module (5824) connects a Silent Knight fire
alarm control panel (FACP) directly to a printer
to print event history. You can also print system
event logs in real time and detector status from
SK addressable FACPs.
Note: Installation and wiring of this device must be done
in accordance with NFPA 72 and local ordinances.

3. Remove knockout if running wires through
the back of the base, and mount the base
using any of the mounting holes provided
(Figure 2). Mounting hardware not included.
Compatibility
The 5824 is compatible with all Silent Knight
addressable FACPs and with the 5208
conventional FACP.
Mounting
The 5824 has a plastic enclosure that is surface
mounted.
To mount the 5824 enclosure:
1. Remove the 5824 cover. Use a small screw
driver if necessary.
2. Remove the 5824 circuit board from the
enclosure base by pushing outward on one of
the snap retaining tabs at the bottom (as

4. Snap the circuit board back in the base so the
snap retaining tabs hold it in place.
Note: It may be necessary to wire to the circuit board
before placing it back in the base. See Wiring to a
FA C P .

Setting DIP Switches
Each module on a Silent Knight FACP requires
an ID number which is set using the DIP
switches on the 5824 circuit board. Refer to
Table 2 to see how to position the DIP switches
for the desired ID number. See the FACP
installation manual for specific information on
device ID assignments.
Connect the printer cable to the serial or parallel
on the 5824 and then connect it to the printer.
Printer cable not included.
