Specifications
Channel Inputs
Four (4) supervised / unsupervised channel inputs
can be configured as either voltage inputs; active,
high or low inputs, or contact closure inputs.
Siemens FACPs (XLS, SXL-EX and MXL) use a contact
closure(s) for each channel.
Each XLS FACP connects to Model 5129, via the dry
contacts on the Alarm, Trouble and Supervisory
commands on the Power Supply Charger (Model PSC
-
12).
The preset channels are programmed as follows:
Channel 1: Alarm (Fire)
Channel 2: Trouble (Fire)
Channel 3: Sprinkler (Supervisory)
Channel 4: Alarm (Undefined)
Phone-Line Monitors
Two (2) phone-line circuits detect phone line faults
by monitoring their voltages. Reporting of a fault as
a trouble condition is delayed by 40-90 seconds. If
the condition should persist, an audible trouble
event in either Model 5128 or Model 5129
communicator will sound, and the trouble event
will be reported to the central station. Models 5128
and 5129 are equipped with line seizure to ensure
phone-line accessibility.
