Activation with a Normally Closed Relay Contact
FAI Activates when the NC contact OPENS. FAI Deactivates when the NC contact CLOSES.
NOTE: FAI with a NC contact cannot be tested by removing the terminal strip, as this will remove the
jumper wires from V+ and V- as well. To test, remove one wire going to the NC Contact.

Latching the FAI Input
Latching of the FAI Input is achieved by placing a NC contact across the two ‘L’ terminals.
The FAI may be activated by any of the methods listed. FAI Deactivates when the input
is deactivated AND the NC Latching contact is momentarily OPENED.
Example – NO Contact activation with latching
FAI Activates when the NO contact CLOSES. FAI Deactivates when the
NO contact OPENS AND the NC contact momentarily OPENS.

FAI Activation with a Normally Open Relay Contact
and Securitron AQL AC Fault Lock Over Ride
FAI Activates either, when the Fire Alarm NO contact CLOSES, or when the AC Fault NC contact CLOSES.
FAI Deactivates either, when the Fire Alarm NO contact OPENS, or
when the Securitron AQL AC Fault NC contact OPENS.
FAI Input Usage
Tamper Switch Wiring
Securitron AQL DC systems with an enclosure
may include a normally closed tamper switch
for monitoring by the host panel.
The tamper switch can either be brought into
a dedicated input in the panel (see the panel's
instructions), to the Event 1 input of a Netlink Network
Module (See page 21), or the tamper switch may be
series connected into the System Fault relay in the
Securitron AQL supply as shown in the illustration.
Any UL1076 installation must use the tamper
switch to indicate the opening or removal
of the front door of the enclosure.
The Fire Alarm Input (FAI) is used to unlock doors during a fire alarm condition.
The FAI input will accept various activation methods and must be wired as shown below.
