Audio Input Connections

The SP40/2 panel has 8 inputs. The highest priority input is the on board push-to-talk Microphone. It overrides all other audio inputs. The second highest priority input is the AUX. This could be a Remote MIC or RMX. Next are the IN1, IN2 and IN3 respectively, followed by Night Ring (NR), Telephone Page (TEL), and Background Music (BGM). Background Music will be muted when any other audio input is initiated. Night Ring (NR), Telephone Page (TEL), and Background Music (BGM) operate only when the panel has 120VAC applied.

Digital Voice Initiating Connections

The Digital Voice Initiating Connections (IN1, IN2, IN3) provide the initiation of the stored messages in the Digital Voice Section of the SP40/2 panel. Each initiation circuit requires a NAC (9 to 31VDC) input to trigger the respective voice message. Each Initiating circuit is polarized for compatibility with standard reverse polarity supervision of circuit wiring. Additional information can be found in Table 31 on Page 3-3.

The Digital Voice Initiating Connections (IN1, IN2, IN3) can also initiate the strobe NAC output circuit. Using DIP Switch SW2 (Strobe Select Sync/Non-Sync Select), strobes can be initiated by IN1, IN2, and/or IN3. (See Figure 3-15 on Page 3-15). Positions 1, 2, and 3 control the strobe initiation for inputs IN1, IN2, and IN3 respectively. Positioned in the ON or up position causes the strobes to operate during message playback.

Wiring Guidelines

Although the SP40/2 panel incorporates signal verification and noise filtering circuitry on their inputs, induced voltages or noise on the input wiring can cause improper operation. Therefore, use shielded twisted pair wire for all dry contact input wiring.

The shield of each cable should be connected only at one end. Each shield of each cable that connects to the SP40/2 panel is to be connected to the grounding points provided near the knockout locations on the chassis (see Figure 3-14 on Page 3-14).

The National Electrical Code defines two types of circuits for protective signaling systems: powerlimited circuits and non-power limited circuits. All SP40/2 outputs (STB OUT, AUDIO OUT, and ±24VDC auxiliary power source) are power-limited circuits.

WARNING: ALL SP40/2 AUDIO WIRING SHOULD BE ROUTED AWAY FROM ANY HIGH VOLTAGE OR HIGH CURRENT WIRING (SUCH AS AC OR DC POWER WIRING, AUDIO POWER WIRING, AND MOTOR OR RELAY ACTUATION WIRING). FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.

CAUTION: The National Electric Code limits the maximum number of conductors that can be

installed in conduit and wiring boxes depending on the size of the conduit, the volume of the boxes, and the gauge of the wire used. Make sure that wiring used for SP40/2 installation complies with the latest NEC, NFPA, Local, State, County or Province requirements.

Field Wiring Connections

All SP40/2 wiring terminals are designed to accept #12 AWG through #22 AWG wiring for one wire per terminal or #16 AWG to #22 AWG for two wires per terminal. Proper wire gauge

considerations for the Notification Circuit must take into account current requirements versus length of run.

NOTE: Only speakers with DC blocking capacitors will provide for proper speaker supervision.

3-9

Page 28

Prepare System Wiring Diagram

Prepare a system-wiring diagram to include all Notification Appliances, and internal connections and power sources as required.

NOTE: Separate input power wiring from the other input and output wiring. Wire the input power to the left side of the motherboard (Figure 3-16, Page 3-21) and the other input and output wiring to the right.

Visual Notification Appliance Output Wiring

● Wire gauge selection involves consideration of all factors including, wire loop length, maximum

current draw of each appliance, number of appliances, and maximum voltage drop allowable.

● Strobe NAC has a 24VDC, 2.0 amps maximum output.

● Strobe NAC meets Class B supervision requirements for notification appliance circuits.

● The strobe output circuit shall have a UL Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR installed across the last

visual notification appliance. If the output is unused, a UL Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR shall be placed across the output terminals.

Speaker Notification Appliance Output Wiring

Wire gauge may vary for each audio appliance output on the panel. When:

● Speaker (with transformer) appliances are used with supervised audio amplifier module. Wire

gauge selection should involve consideration of all factors including, wire length, appliance power ratings, and the number of appliances.

● The amplified output is either a selectable 25 or 70.7Vrms audio output, rated for 40 watts

maximum.

● The output meets Class B supervision requirements for notification appliance circuits.

● The audio output circuit shall have a UL Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR installed across the last

notification appliance. If the output is unused, it shall have a UL Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR across the output terminals.

Section 3-8 – Battery Care and Backup Battery Calculations

Care of Sealed Lead Acid Batteries

Sealed lead acid batteries are designed to operate in standby service for approximately five years. This is based upon a normal service condition where there is an ambient temperature of 20 degrees C (68 degrees F) and batteries are completely discharged once every three months. LENGTH OF SERVICE LIFE WILL BE DIRECTLY AFFECTED BY THE NUMBER OF DISCHARGE CYCLES, DEPTH OF DISCHARGE, AND AMBIENT TEMPERATURE.

Use Guidelines:

Avoid installation and/or operation in close proximity to heat sources. While the operating temperature range is 0 to 49 degrees C (32-120 degrees F), battery life will be maximized at an ambient temperature of 20 degrees C (68 degrees F).

Batteries may generate ignitable gases. Because of this, batteries shall be installed in a wellventilated location, away from spark producing equipment.

Batteries shall not be installed in an atmosphere where organic solvents or adhesives may be present. The batteries shall not be cleaned with oils, thinners, or similar substances. The case and cover of the batteries are ABS plastic resin, which may suffer damage from these chemicals.

Batteries shall not be installed in a heavy vibration or shock location.

Insulated gloves shall always be worn when handling batteries.

WARNING: BATTERIES SHALL NOT BE CRUSHED, INCINERATED, OR DISMANTLED. THE ELECTROLYTE CONTAINS SULFURIC ACID, WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO EYES AND SKIN. IF CONTACT DOES OCCUR, FLUSH WITH WATER AND SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Batteries of different capacities, age, or manufacturer shall not be used together.

Battery Storage

Batteries which are to be stored for an extended period of time should be given a supplement charge monthly. Batteries should never be stored in a discharged condition.

The self-discharge rate of batteries is approximately 3% per month when the storage temperature is maintained at 20 degrees C (68 degrees F). The self-discharge rate will vary depending upon temperature. Cooler temperatures cause the self-discharge rate to decrease. Warmer temperatures cause the self-discharge rate to increase.

Calculating Backup Battery Requirements

A Worksheet for assisting in calculating battery backup is available at the end of this manual.

Due to the current drain on the battery, the maximum battery size for the SP40/2 is 12 Amp-hours.

3-20

Page 39

It is necessary to calculate the current draw for battery backup requirement. The current requirement depends on the system configuration and the appliances connected to the Strobe and Speaker output NAC circuits. Battery Backup current has two separate calculations that are added together. They are Standby Current and Alarm Current.

Standby Current

The standby current consumes the largest part of the storage battery capacity. The standby current of the SP40/2

panel is 0.125 Amps. Multiply this value by the number of standby hours required. Normally this is 24 or 60 hours. This represents the total Standby Capacity Required in Amp-Hours for the panel.

Alarm Current

The maximum alarm current for the SP40/2 panel is 4.66 Amps (2.16 Amps for audio, 2.0 Amps for strobe, and 0.5 Amps for auxiliary power).

1. Calculate strobe output current by adding the current draw of all strobes. Current draw will

be in Amps.

2. Calculate speaker output current by totaling all the speaker wattage settings. Multiply the

sum by 0.054. The result will be the current draw in Amps.

3. Add the strobe output current and the speaker output circuit current together. The results will

be the total alarm current in amp-hours.

Alarm circuits are required to operate for 15 minutes on battery power. Multiply Step 3 by 0.25 hrs. The result is the total Alarm Capacity Required in Amp-Hours.

Battery Calculations

Good engineering practices recommend the total Amp-hours required for backup should not exceed 90% of the Backup Battery capacity. The SP40/2 has been UL approved for 12Ah batteries.

1. Add the total Standby Capacity Required to the total Alarm Capacity Required.

2. Multiply Step 1 by 1.1. This is the minimum Backup Battery requirement for this panel.

3. Record results on worksheet.

Section 3-9 - AC Power and Battery Installation Procedures

NOTE: Power limited and non-power limited wiring must be separated. Non-power limited wiring (AC power and battery) shall be wired to the left of the motherboard. Power limited wiring shall be wired to the right of the motherboard.

Chapter 4 - OPERATION

Section 4-1- Introduction

This chapter describes the operating characteristics of the SP40/2 panel. Included is information about the following SP40/2 panel features:

• Operator's Console

• Supervision

• Digital Voice Section

• Audio Notification Appliance Output Circuit Supervision

• Amplifier Supervision

• Actions that Initiate Alarms

Section 4-2 - Operator’s Console

The operator’s console includes a microphone, an AUDIBLE TROUBLE SILENCE Switch, an AC LED, a TROUBLE LED, and a STROBE ALARM LED. Opening the enclosure door accesses the operator’s console.

Section 4-3 - Supervision

A TROUBLE LED indicates that the supervisory functions have detected a malfunction in the panel. When a trouble condition is detected, the panel may not be able to receive and/or remember message requests from the control panel. The installer and/or user must make sure that any message requests to the panel during a trouble condition are reactivated if necessary, when the panel returns to normal.

If a trouble condition is detected by any of the supervisory functions, the internal sounder will operate, the panel Form C TROUBLE relay (normally energized) will change state, and the yellow TROUBLE LED will turn “ON”. The Trouble Status Relay (TB3-4, 5 and 6) must be properly connected to and used by the control panel to indicate a system trouble. At the same time one of the yellow trouble location LEDs will identify the location of the trouble condition. The internal sounder can be silenced for 20 minutes by depressing the “Trouble Acknowledge” Switch (SW1). Any subsequent troubles will cause the sounder to be activated. If a trouble condition is indicated, follow the procedures in Chapter 7 "Troubleshooting”.

WARNING: DO NOT LEAVE THE PANEL IN A TROUBLE CONDITION, AS IT MAY NOT PLAY WARNING MESSAGES WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS. IF THE PANEL INDICATES A TROUBLE CONDITION: (1) PROVIDE UL REQUIRED ALTERNATIVE SIGNALING AND (2) HAVE QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONS IMMEDIATELY REPLACE UNIT(S) THAT HAVE MALFUNCTIONED.

4-1

Page 44

WARNING: MESSAGES REQUESTED BEFORE AND DURING A TROUBLE CONDITION MAY NOT BE HEARD, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS. IF MESSAGES REQUESTED BEFORE AND DURING A TROUBLE CONDITION ARE STILL NECESSARY, THEY SHOULD BE REPEATED WHEN THE SP40/2 PANEL IS RETURNED TO NORMAL.

Visual Notification Appliance Output Circuit Supervision

The visual notification appliance output circuit uses Class B, Style Y wiring, and is supervised for open and short circuits when the output is de-energized. Output circuit supervision requires installation of UL Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR on the output circuit. A sensed Strobe short circuit trouble will illuminate D37 STB SHORT LED. A sensed strobe open circuit trouble will illuminate D39 STB OPEN LED. See Figure 7-1 on Page 7-2 for LED location.

Audio Notification Appliance Output Circuit Supervision

The audio notification appliance output circuit uses Class B, Style Y wiring, and is supervised for open and short circuits when the output is de-energized. Output circuit supervision requires installation of UL Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR on the output circuit. A sensed open circuit trouble will illuminate D58 AUDIO OPEN LED. A sensed strobe short circuit trouble will illuminate D54 AUDIO SHORT LED. See Figure 7-1 on Page 7-2 for LED location.

Amplifier Supervision

A supervisory tone plays through the amplifier section during standby for supervision purpose. Any sensed trouble illuminates D36 “AMP” LED. See Figure 7-1 on Page 7-2 for LED location.

Ground Fault Supervision

The SP40/2 panel supervises for ground fault conditions on Class B, Style Y field wiring that is not electrically isolated. The supervised wiring includes contact inputs, visual NAC circuits, audio NAC circuits, amplified speaker NAC circuits, trouble audible output circuits, All other wiring is electrically isolated. Removing jumper W6 shall disable ground fault supervision. If a ground fault condition exists D60 GF LED illuminates. See Figure 7-1 on Page 7-2 for LED locations.

Chapter 5 - Operational Procedures

Section 5-1 - Operator Instructions

The SP40/2 panel provides an operator console for push-to-talk Microphone capability and monitoring normal and trouble conditions. The operator console includes a microphone, a green AC LED, a yellow TROUBLE LED, and a red STROBE ALARM LED. The operator instructions are shown in Figure 5-2 on Page 5-3.

The TROUBLE and AC LEDs identify to the operator the condition of the SP40/2. The yellow TROUBLE LED will be illuminated whenever there is a trouble detected by the panel. If no troubles are detected, only the green AC LED will be illuminated.

Section 5-2 - To Make Live Announcements

1. Hold the on board or remote microphone within 2 inches from your mouth, press push-to-talk switch and begin speaking. (For best results hold the microphone within a half inch from your mouth.)

2. When finished, release the PTT switch and return the microphone to its holder.

NOTE: If the on-board microphone push-to-talk button is depressed and remains depressed for two and a half minutes, the microphone circuit will automatically switch to the selected supervision tone.

Section 5-3 - To Record Digital Voice Messages

The Digital Voice section of the SP40/2 panel contains a digital voice memory chip that contains the digital voice program and the voice messages. The memory chip comes with 3 messages installed. The DV Memory Chip (See Figure 5-1 on Page 5-2) can be removed and the messages will remain on the chip. If tailored messages (messages with tones) are required from Wheelock Inc. the new chip can be installed when received.

The message chip memory is divided into three segments. Each segment is prioritized 1 through 3 matching the inputs IN1 through IN3. If IN3 message is playing and either messages IN2 or IN1 are initiated, the message on IN3 will immediately stop and the higher priority message will play.

As long as the NAC voltage is applied to the input, the message will repeat. When the voltage is removed, the message will play to the end and stop.

When the Digital Voice Section is set up for record mode it is important to remember that there are three memory segments on the DV Memory Chip. Segment 1 is 21 Seconds, Segments 2 and 3 are 18 seconds each.

NOTE: If the Digital Voice Section should fail the SP40/2 panel will play the selected tone (Code 3 Tone or Slow Whoop). See Figure 3-15 on Page 3-15 for the location of jumper W3. See Table 3-2 for explanation of the jumper.

5-1

Page 46

Procedure for Recording Messages on the Digital Voice Section

CAUTION: Recording of any new message will permanently erase the previous message. If a

Wheelock, Inc. factory prerecorded fire or emergency message, or a tailored message is accidentally or intentionally erased, a new factory recorded message kit must be purchased to restore the message.

Refer to Figure 5-1 (Page 5-2) for location of all Digital Voice Section operating components. Decide which message segment that the recording will be made on. Read through this procedure carefully before attempting a recording. Identify all components mentioned.

1. Remove the DV Record Jumper W-1. Place jumper in a secure place. It will be replaced at the end of the recording procedure.

2. Turn switch 4 (R) on the DV Select DIP Switch (SW3) to the up or ON position.

3. Determine which one of the three messages you wish to record.

4. With the mouth approximately one inch from the DV Microphone and the right hand on the proper message switch on SW3 (DV Select Switch) 1, 2, or 3, turn ON or to the up position, the desired switch and immediately state the message.

5. When the message has concluded turn OFF switch 4 (R) on the DV Select Switch (SW3).

6. Turn OFF the selected switch on SW3.

7. Check recorded message by momentarily turning ON the selected switch on the DV Select Switch (SW3). The message will play in its entirety.

8. For additional message recording, repeat steps 2 through 7.

9. When recording is done replace DV Record Jumper (W1).

Procedure for Verifying Messages

NOTE: Verify SW3 DIP switch, position 4 (R) is in the OFF position.

1. Momentarily switch on selected switch on the DV Select Switch (1, 2, or 3) (SW3). The message will play in its entirety.

2. Adjust R126 (treble) and R129 (bass) tone controls for desired output.

PROCEDURE

TROUBLE

SHOOTING

BEFORE PERFORMING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES, THE PRELIMINARY TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS “TROUBLESHOOTING” SECTION MUST BE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND FOLLOWED.

Procedure A

If the green AC LED is “OFF”, and all other LEDs are “OFF”, a power loss condition has occurred. A power loss condition may be caused by:

1. Loss of AC input voltage and battery back-up voltage.

2. Faulty internal wiring between the rectifier module and the ± IN (TB1) on the motherboard

and batteries missing.

3. Faulty Motherboard.

4. Faulty Transformer Assembly

Perform the following:

1. Check for 24VDC at TB1 on the Motherboard. If voltage is not present, replace the

Transformer Assembly (SP40XFMR). Check for battery installation.

2. If the 24VDC is present on TB1, replace the motherboard.

NOTE: Mark all wires before removing components. When the trouble is repaired, and before testing, replace all wires to the proper locations and replace all covers.

7-3

Page 55

Procedure B

If the green AC LED is “ON”, yellow TROUBLE LED may or may not be “ON”, no other LED’s are “ON” and there is no audio output and or strobe output the SP40/2 is in an overcurrent state:

Check the strobe output (if applicable) and the speaker output for excessive current calculation. (2.0A for strobe circuit, 1.6 Amps for audio circuit, and 0.5 Amps for auxiliary power)

Perform the following:

1. If excessive current is calculated remove appliances until the strobe current is below 2.0

Amps and the audio circuit current is below 1.6 Amps (Refer to Section 3-8, Alarm Current calculation on Page 3-20).

2. If excessive current does not exist and audio and/or strobe outputs are not operating the
