DN-6820:B • D-123
General
The FDU-80 is a compact, cost-effective, 80-character, backlit
LCD remote Fire Annunciator for use with the NOTIFIER Fire-
Warden-100-2, NFS2-640, and NFS-320 Fire Alarm Control
Panels (FACPs). The FDU-80 mimics the display of the control
panel and displays complete system point status information.
Up to 32 FDU-80s may be connected onto the EIA-485 termi-
nal port of each FACP. The FDU-80 requires no programming,
which saves time during system commissioning.
Features
• 80-character Liquid Crystal Display.
• Mimics all display information from the host panel.
• Control switches for System Acknowledge, Signal Silence,
Drill and Reset with enable key.
• System status LEDs for Power, Alarm, Trouble, Supervisory
and Alarm Silenced.
• No programming necessary — FDU-80 connects to the ter-
minal porton the FACP.
• Displays device type identifiers, individual point alarm, trou-
ble or supervisory, zone and custom alpha labels.
• Time-and-date display field.
• Aesthetically pleasing design.
• May be powered from the host FACP or by remote power
supply (requires 24 VDC).
• Up to 32 FDU-80 annunciators per FACP.
• Plug-in terminal blocks for ease of installation and service.
• Can be remotely located up to 6,000 feet (1828.8 m) from
the FACP.
• Local piezo sounder with alarm and trouble resound.
• Semi-flush mounts to 2.188" (5.556 cm) minimum deep,
three-gang electrical box (NOTIFIER PN 10103) or three-
gangable electrical switchbox.
• Surface-mounts to NOTIFIER PN SBB-3 surface backbox.
Operation
The FDU-80 annunciator provides the FACP with point annun-
ciation with full display text on an 80-character LCD display.
The FDU-80 also provides an array of LEDs to indicate system
status, and includes control switches for remote control of criti-
cal system functions.
The FDU-80 provides the FACP with up to 32 remote serially
connected annunciators. All field-wiring terminations on the
FDU-80 use removable, compression-type terminal blocks for
ease of wiring and circuit testing.
Communication between the FACP and the annunciators is
accomplished over an EIA-485 serial interface, which greatly
reduces wire and installation cost over traditional systems.
Installation
The FDU-80 can be semi-flush mounted to a 2.188" (5.556
cm) minimum deep, three-gang electrical box or three-gang-
able electrical switchboxes. Alternately, an SBB-3 surface
backbox is available for surface-mount applications.
