6.3.1 Current loop
A current loop output is provided as a standard feature on the FP2000 Series of fire
panels. The current loop is used to drive up to 15 fireman’s panels and conventional
repeaters. Each fireman’s panel/repeater has its own unique address, by means of
resistor settings at that panel. Please refer to the appropriate Installation Manual for the
correct settings.
The location of the current loop terminal connections is shown in Figure 3 & Figure 7.
The connections between the FP2000 Series fire panels and the FM800 Series fireman’s
PCBs and FR800 Series repeater are as shown below.
