4.6.1 System Control Settings

Figures 3-4 thru 3-8 show the location of the controls used to configure the SP40S Multi-Function Facility

Communication System. Table 4-1 identifies and explains the functions of the terminal blocks, Section 3.7 the

other user settings. The following procedure is a basic setup for the panel.

1. Ensure that the AC and Battery Power are not connected.

2. Plug in the microphone.

3. Select the proper audio output (25V or 70V) on J1 Audio Output Select.

4. Connect the speaker circuit(s) to terminal block TB4 AUD OUT. Verify that the speaker circuit has a UL

Listed 10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR.

5. If applicable, connect the strobe circuit to TB12 STB OUT. Verify that the strobe circuit has a UL Listed

10K Ohm, ½ W EOLR.

6. If Strobe synchronization is to be defeated, turn OFF positions 1 and 2 of SW9 Strobe Synchronization

Defeat.

4.6.2 Checkout Procedure

WARNING: Always connect the AC power source before connecting the

battery backup power. Always disconnect the AC power source before

disconnecting the battery backup power.

NOTE: All terminal blocks, jumpers, switches, LEDs, Fuses, and Potentiometers are illustrated in Figures 3-4

thru 3-8.

 Connect the interface ribbon cable to J6.

 Connect AC power, then connect the batteries.

When the AC power source is applied to the panel, the battery voltage check circuitry is activated. If

batteries are not connected within 20 seconds, the panel trouble circuit activates. The battery voltage

check circuitry re-checks for batteries every two minutes. If the batteries are installed during the two-

minute period, the panel remains in trouble mode until the next re-check.

 D100 PWR LED and POWER ON (Interface) LED should be “ON” to indicate normal operation.

 If SYSTEM TROUBLE (Interface) LED (Yellow) is “ON,” and the internal sounder is operating, a

trouble condition is indicated.

 In such a case, STOP TESTING. Refer to Chapter 8 of this manual, then troubleshoot and correct the

problem before you resume testing. See Figures 3-7 for location of LEDs.

 Perform the following tests:
