NFN Gateway Installation & Operation Manual - P/N: 52306:Rev: D 06/01/07
Installation Precautions
Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to
the fire alarm control panel.
Disconnect all sources of power before
servicing. The control unit and associated equipment may be dam-
aged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting
cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service,
or operate this unit until this manual is read and understood.
CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test after Software Changes.
To
ensure proper system operation, this product must be tested in accor-
dance with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or change in
site-specific software. Reacceptance testing is required after any
change, addition or deletion of system components, or after any mod-
ification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.
All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions
known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested. In addition,
to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least
10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change,
up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also be tested and proper sys-
tem operation verified.
This system
meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0°C to 49°C
(32°F to 120°F) and at a relative humidity 93% ± 2% RH (non-con-
densing) at 32°C ± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F). However, the useful life of the
system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be
adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity.
Therefore, it is recommended that this system and all peripherals be
installed in an environment with a nominal room temperature of 15-
27° C/60-80° F.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate
for all initiating and indicating
device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R.
drop from the specified device voltage.
Like all solid state electronic devices
this system may operate errati-
cally or can be damaged when subjected to lightning-induced tran-
sients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning
transients and interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibil-
ity. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an
increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the
Technical Services if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
Disconnect AC power and batteries
prior to removing or inserting cir-
cuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.
Remove all electronic assemblies
prior to any drilling, filing, reaming,
or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make all cable entries
from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that they
will not interfere with battery, transformer, and printed circuit board
location.
Do not tighten screw terminals
more than 9 in-lbs. Over-tightening
may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact pressure
and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
Though designed to last many years,
system components can fail at
any time. This system contains static-sensitive components. Always
ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits
so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static-sup-
pressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies removed from
the unit.
Follow the instructions
in the installation, operating, and program-
ming manuals. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage
to the control panel and associated equipment. FACP operation and
reliability depend upon proper installation by authorized personnel.

FCC Warning
WARNING:
This equipment generates, uses, and can radi-
ate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause inter-
ference to radio communications. It has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for class A computing
device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules,
which is designed to provide reasonable protection against
such interference when operated in a commercial environ-
ment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Canadian Requirements:
This digital apparatus does not
exceed the Class A limits for radiation noise emissions
from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference
Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communica-
tions.
Le present appareil numerique n'emet pas de bruits radio-
electriques depassant les limites applicables aux appareils
numeriques de la classe A prescrites dans le Reglement
