The FACP or Power Booster configuration utilizes tones onboard the signaling device and distributed power. The devices are wired in a standard loop in/loop out wiring arrangement connecting each device in parallel. These self amplified speakers utilize an onboard UTM (Universal Tone Module) to generate a preselected tone when power is applied from the FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) or Power Booster. An EOL (End of Line Resistor) completes the circuit and allows the FACP to supervise the power line and monitor for breaks in the line. If the circuit is broken the FACP will indicate a break, devices downstream of the break will be rendered inactive. The Mass Notification Panel configuration utilizes centralized distributed audio for tone and voice messaging. The audio signal is wired using a standard loop in/loops out arrangement connecting each device in parallel. Discrete power is required for each device from the FACP or a compliant NFPA72 UPS. An EOL (End of Line Resistor) completes the circuit and allows the FACP to supervise the audio line and monitor for breaks. If the circuit is broken, the FACP will indicate a break and devices downstream of the break will be rendered inactive. The Control Panel or Power Supply configuration utilizes a standard parallel wiring arrangement for visual signaling devices. If the visual signals are within line of sight of each other, a SSM (Strobe Sync Module) is necessary to synchronize the lights in compliance with NFPA72 regulations (consult NFPA regulations for additional details). An EOL (End of Line Resistor) completes the circuit, allowing the FACP to supervise the main power line and monitor for breaks in the line. If the circuit is broken, the FACP will indicate a break and devices downstream of the break will be rendered inactive.
