1. Be sure to read and understand the entire

instruction manual before installing or operating the
Eagle Quantum Premier® system. Only qualified
personnel should install, maintain or operate the
system.

2. The wiring procedures in this manual are intended

to ensure proper functioning of the devices under
normal conditions. However, because of the many
variations in wiring codes and regulations, total
compliance with these ordinances cannot be
guaranteed. Be certain that all wiring and
equipment installation meets or exceeds the latest
revisions of the appropriate NFPA Standards,
National Electrical Code (NEC), and all local
ordinances. If in doubt, consult the Authority
Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) before wiring the system.

All wiring shall be installed in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendations.

3. Some Eagle Quantum Premier devices contain

semiconductor devices that are susceptible to
damage by electrostatic discharge. An
electrostatic charge can build up on the skin and
discharge when an object is touched. Always
observe the normal precautions for handling
electrostatic sensitive devices, i.e. use of a wrist
strap (if available) and proper grounding.

4. To prevent unwanted actuation, alarms and

extinguishing devices must be secured prior to
performing system tests.
