Remote Supply With Resettable and Nonresettable Power

Applications

The following notes apply to Figure 5.3 on page 32.

1. When the FCPS-24FS power supply is in an inactive state (control module not active), a

trouble on the power supply will result in an open circuit condition on the control module
output circuit (monitored by an End-of-Line Resistor across Terminals 5 & 6). As an
alternative, the trouble contacts at TB5 of the power supply can also be used for independent
trouble monitoring.

2. Do not loop wires under screw terminals. Break wires to maintain proper supervision.
3. An End-of-Line Resistor must be installed between terminals 5 & 6 for control module wiring

supervision (the ELR value is dependent on the module employed) and across terminals 7 & 8
for FACP NAC wiring supervision (the ELR value is dependent on the NAC).

4. For a list of compatible devices, refer to the Device Compatibility Document.

5.4 Remote Supply With Resettable and Nonresettable Power

The FCPS-24FS can be used as a remote stand-alone power supply to provide power to any devices
that require filtered, resettable or nonresettable power. The FCPS-24FS6 can provide up to 4 amps
of continuous current and the FCPS-24FS8 can provide up to 6 amps of continuous current. The
power supply must be set for Split Alarm mode. Output circuits 1 & 2 are configured as resettable
power outputs by connecting the resettable power from an FACP to Control Input 1 Terminals 3(+)
& 4(-) on TB4 of the FCPS-24FS. Output circuits 3 & 4 are configured as nonresettable power out-
puts by connecting jumpers between the auxiliary 24 VDC output on TB4 to the Control Input 2
terminals on TB4 [Terminals 9(+) to 7(+) and 10(-) to 8(-)].

NOTE: All four outputs can be configured as resettable or all four can be configured as
nonresettable by setting the power supply for General Alarm and then connecting a resettable
power source to Control Input 1 or a nonresettable power source, such as the Aux. Power output
of the FCPS-24FS, to Control Input 1.
