Power Connection from Sigma XT
When FP-C2 is used as a sub-panel from a Sigma XT Control panel it should be connected to a separate Detection Zone
as described earlier. Power can be taken from the Sigma panel as shown.
Power can come from 1, 2 , or 3.
CANNOT USE - AUX 24v from Exting Module as it is current limited to 100mA,
Power from main panel will provide battery backup.
FPC-2 as activation Module only
This configuration uses the FPC-2 as an activation module only. This can be established with any style of AS Panel.
Individual configurations will be dependent on the specifics of the master panel.
Connection will be required for the Power Supply. The activation device needs to
connect to the detection circuit on the FPC-2, this needs to meet the detection circuit
criteria. Once the FPC-2 receives a detection advice
–
activation of the extinguishant
system is immediate.
Fire and Fault reporting will require connection back to the master panel.
To make the
FPC-2
compatible with an addressable input module, move jumpers
J1 and J2 from their default positions (position A) to position B. The FIRE NO and C
terminals can now be connected directly to the addressable input module.
Alarm and fault conditions will be indicated on a addressable fire alarm control panel.
Note: The volt free contact function is not available when the contacts are being
used to signal and addressable input module.

Maintenance
FPC-2 control panels do not require any specific maintenance, but should the control panel become dirty it can be wiped
over with a damp cloth and should then be dried with a dry, lint free cloth. Detergents or solvents should not be used to
clean the panel and care must be taken that water does not
Enter
the enclosure.
Testing of the extinguishant system should only be carried out by trained personnel and must be done with appropriate
isolation measures in place to ensure that accidental discharge of the extinguishant agent is avoided and any malfunction
should be reported to the fire alarm maintenance company immediately.
