12-4 Fire Panel Interface (FPI) LC 1200 Manual
Wiring
For instructions on wiring the FPI, refer to the
chapter of the component you are using (e.g.,
Magnetic Locks, Elevator Deactivation, or
Automatic Door Deactivation).
Terminals
Pins 1 and 2
Pins 3 and 4
Pins 5 and 6
Pins 7 and 8
Pins 9 and 10
Because of the variety of possible mounting
locations, and therefore distances between
signals and sources, it is recommended that you
use no less than 18-gauge plenum-rated wire and
cable for connecting the FPI unit.
You must use a separate dry contact for each LC
unit that controls a Lock, Elevator Deactivation,
or Automatic Door Deactivation.
This dry contact may come directly from the
facility’s fire panel, or from the
Accutech Fire Panel Interface (FPI) unit. The
FPI unit will allow you to connect multiple LC
units to the facility fire panel.
Pins 1 and 2 (Power)
IMPORTANT:
For fire code safety, the FPI must be powered
separately from an LC unit.
You will need a separate 2-conductor cable run
from a +12V DC supply power (
Part # 500250)
and ground to the pins 1 & 2, respectively.
Pins 3 and 4 (Fire Voltage)
The dry contacts from the fire panel connect to
pins 3 (“C”) and 4 (“NC”) of P1 on the FPI. Pin
3 is simply +12V DC that is sent out through the
fire alarm contacts. Pin 4 is the return of the
voltage and should only be present when the fire
alarm system is working properly and the fire
alarm is not engaged.
Pins 5 and 6 (Central Override)
Pins 5 (“C”) & 6 (“NC”) of P1 on the FPI are for
the Central Override contacts.
If this option is not used, you will see a
shorting jumper between these two
points or you need to place one.
When using more than one FPI, each
FPI should have its own shorting
jumper or central override switch.
Pins 7 and 8 (Fire Alarm Indicator)
Pins 7 (“DPLY”) & 8 (“G”) of P1 on the FPI are
the Auxiliary Output that are typically used to
power a Fire Alarm indicator LED at a Staff
Alert or Graphic Panel. Pin 7 is the signal, and
pin 8 is the Ground.
Pins 9 and 10 (Reset)
Pins 9 (“C”) & 10 (“NO”) of P1 on the FPI are
the Reset pins. The push button switch in the
cover of the FPI is connected to these two
points. If an automatic reset is desired this
switch can be replaced by a jumper from pin 9 to
10.
NOTE: On the FPI, connector P2 has 8 pairs of
contacts for each of 8 LC units that can be
connected to the FPI.
