Fire Alarm & Emergency Communication System Limitations
While a life safety system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for life and property insurance!
An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke
detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning
devices, and a fire alarm control panel (FACP) with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire.
Such a system, however, does not assure protection against
property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
An emergency communication system—typically made up of
an automatic fire alarm system (as described above) and a life
safety communication system that may include an autonomous
control unit (ACU), local operating console (LOC), voice communication, and other various inter-operable communication methods—can broadcast a mass notification message. Such a system,
however, does not assure protection against property damage or
loss of life resulting from a fire or life safety event.
The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors
be located throughout a protected premises following the
recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire
Protection Association Standard 72 (NFPA 72), manufacturer's
recommendations, State and local codes, and the
recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use of
System Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge
to all installing dealers. This document can be found at http://
www.systemsensor.com/appguides/. A study by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (an agency of the United States
government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as
many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to
provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning
or protection against fire. A fire alarm system may not provide
timely or adequate warning, or simply may not function, for a
variety of reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach
the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on roofs, or
on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not
sense a fire on another level or floor of a building. A second-floor
detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.
Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may
not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:
• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, chimneys, even wet or humid areas may inhibit particle or smoke
flow.
• Smoke particles may become “cold,” stratify, and not reach the
ceiling or upper walls where detectors are located.
• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air outlets, such as air conditioning vents.
• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching
the detector.
The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm
smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such density levels are not created
by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will
not go into alarm.
Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limitations. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing chambers
tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which
have little visible smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often
unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detector may not provide adequate
warning of a fire.
Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning of fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially in bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions
(caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm
only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined
rate or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors
may be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason,
the rate-of-rise feature of each detector should be tested at least
once per year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.
IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same
room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for
the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a developing
fire may damage the alarm system, compromising its ability to
report a fire.
Audible warning devices such as bells, horns, strobes,
speakers and displays may not alert people if these devices are
located on the other side of closed or partly open doors or are
located on another floor of a building. Any warning device may fail
to alert people with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol, or medication. Please note that:
• An emergency communication system may take priority over a
fire alarm system in the event of a life safety emergency.
• Voice messaging systems must be designed to meet intelligibility requirements as defined by NFPA, local codes, and
Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
• Language and instructional requirements must be clearly disseminated on any local displays.
• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in
people with conditions such as epilepsy.
• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear
a fire alarm signal, do not respond to or comprehend the
meaning of the signal. Audible devices, such as horns and
bells, can have different tonal patterns and frequencies. It is
the property owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and
other training exercises to make people aware of fire alarm
signals and instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.
• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause
temporary or permanent hearing loss.
A life safety system will not operate without any electrical power.
If AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries
only for a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly maintained and replaced regularly.
Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible with the control panel. It is essential to use only equipment
listed for service with your control panel.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily disabled. For added protection against telephone line
failure, backup radio transmission systems are recommended.
The most common cause of life safety system malfunction is
inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire life safety system in
excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per the
manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards.
At a minimum, the requirements of NFPA 72 shall be followed.
Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt, or high air velocity
require more frequent maintenance. A maintenance agreement
should be arranged through the local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should be scheduled monthly or as required by
National and/or local fire codes and should be performed by
authorized professional life safety system installers only. Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.

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. Control unit and associated
equipment may be damaged 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 manuals are read and understood.
CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after Software
Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product
must be tested in accordance 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 modification,
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 system operation verified.
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0-49º
C/32-120º F and at a relative humidity. 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 its peripherals be installed in an environment with
a normal room temperature of 15-27º C/60-80º 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 erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely
immune from lightning transients and interference, proper
grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside
aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Services Department if any problems are anticipated or
encountered.
Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or
inserting circuit 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, or printed circuit board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. Overtightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal
contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
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 suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies
removed from the unit.
Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and
programming manuals. These instructions must be followed to
avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment.
FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.

Wiring Specifications

Induced noise (transfer of electrical energy from one wire to another) can interfere with telephone
communication or cause false alarms. To avoid induced noise, follow these guidelines:
•

Isolate input wiring from high current output and power wiring. Do not pull one multi-conductor cable for
the entire panel. Instead, separate the wiring as follows:
High voltage

AC power Terminals

SLC loops
Audio input/output

Phone line circuits

Notification circuits

NAC1 through NAC4

SBUS
Relay circuits

•

Do not pull wires from different groups through the same conduit. If you must run them together, do so for
as short a distance as possible or use shielded cable. Connect the shield to earth ground at the panel. You
must route high and low voltages separately.

•

Route the wiring around the inside perimeter of the cabinet. It should not cross the circuit board where it
could induce noise into the sensitive microelectronics or pick up unwanted RF noise from the high speed
circuits. See Figure 3-1 for an example.

•

High frequency noise, such as that produced by the inductive reactance of a speaker or bell, can also be
reduced by running the wire through ferrite shield beads or by wrapping it around a ferrite toroid.

Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery

This section is for helping you determine the current draw and standby battery needs if you are using SK
addressable devices (Table 3-2) or SD addressable devices (Table 3-3).

3.6.1

Current Draw Worksheet Requirements

The following steps must be taken when determining 5808 current draw and standby battery requirements.
1.

Use the Current Draw Worksheet to determine current draw and standby battery requirements. Use Table 32 if installing SK SLC Devices and Table 3-3 if installing SD SLC Devices to determine current draw. For
the 5808, the worst case current draw is listed for the panel, addressable devices, and all SBUS expanders.
Fill in the number of addressable devices that will be used in the system and compute the current draw
requirements for alarm and standby. Record this information in the Current Draw Worksheet on Line A.

Add up the current draw for all auxiliary devices and record in the table at Line B.

Add up all notification appliance loads and record in the table at Line C.

For notification appliance circuits and auxiliary devices not mentioned in the manual, refer to the device
manual for the current ratings.

Make sure that the total alarm current you calculated, including current for the panel itself, does not exceed
6.0 A. This is the maximum alarm current for the 5808 control panel.
If the current is above 6.0 A you will need to use a notification power expander(s) such as the Silent Knight
5496 intelligent power module, to distribute the power loads so that the 5808 or the power expanders do not
exceed their power rating. Refer to the current draw worksheets provided with the 5496 manual so you do
not exceed their power requirements.

Complete the remaining instructions in the appropriate Current Draw Worksheet for determining battery size
requirements.

3.6.1.1 Current Draw Worksheet for SK SLC Devices
Use Table 3-2 to determine current requirements during alarm/battery standby operation when SK SLC devices
are installed. You can install up to 99 SK detectors and 99 SK modules. (Copy the page if additional space is
required.)

Section 4
Control Panel Installation
Caution!
To avoid the risk of electrical shock and damage to the unit, power should be OFF at the control panel while
installing or servicing.

4.1

Mounting the Control Panel Cabinet

Read the environmental specifications in Section 3.2 before mounting the 5808 panel.
The 5808 cabinet dimensions are:
16" W x 26.4" H x 3.5" D (40.64 cm W x 67.06 cm H x 8.89 cm D).
The 5808 panel should be located within a secured area, where it is accessible to main drop wiring runs and
where it can be easily tested and serviced. End-users responsible for maintaining the panel should be able to hear
alarms and troubles. When selecting a location, keep in mind that the panel itself is the main source of alarm and
trouble annunciation.
When mounting on interior walls, use appropriate screw anchors in plaster. When mounting on concrete,
especially when moisture is expected, attach a piece of 3/4 inch plywood to the concrete surface and then attach
the 5808 to the plywood. Also mount any other desired components to the plywood.
DO NOT flush-mount the 5808 cabinet in a wall designated as a fire break.

4.1.1

Preventing Water Damage

Water damage to the fire system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet through the conduits. Conduits
that are installed to enter the top of the cabinet are most likely to cause water problems. Installers should take
reasonable precautions to prevent water from entering the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under warranty.

4.1.2

Removing the 5808 Assembly from the Housing

If it should ever be necessary to remove the control panel assembly from the cabinet for repair, do so by
removing the screws that hold the control panel in to the cabinet. Do not attempt to disassemble the circuit
boards.

4.2

151274-L8

AC Connection

At installation, connect the AC terminals to the power source as shown in Figure 4-1. It may be necessary for a
professional electrician to make this connection.
The AC terminals are rated at 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 3.6A.

Figure 4-1 120VAC Power Connection

4.3

Battery Connection

The control panel battery charge capacity is 7.0 to 35 AH. The main control cabinet can house batteries up to 18
AH, larger capacity batteries can be housed in a RBB (see Section 4.3.1 for details). Use 12V batteries of the
same AH rating. Determine the correct AH rating as per your current load calculation (see Section 3.6).
Wire batteries in series to produce a 24-volt equivalent. Do not parallel batteries to increase the AH rating.
The following steps and diagram explain how to connect the batteries.
1.

Connect the black wire from the control panel negative (–) battery terminal to the negative (–) side of Battery #2.

Connect the jumper wire provided (P/N 140694) from the positive (+) side of Battery #2 to the (–) negative
side of Battery #1.

Connect the red wire from the control panel positive (+) terminal to the positive (+) side of Battery #1.

RBB Accessory Cabinet

The Model RBB Accessory cabinet can be used when your backup batteries requirements use backup batteries
that are too large to fit into the main control panel cabinet. The RBB cabinet holds batteries up to the 35 AH size.
The RBB dimensions are 16" W x 10" H x 6" D (40.64 cm W x 25.4 cm H x 15.24 cm D).

4.3.1.1 Installing the RBB Accessory Cabinet and Batteries
To properly install the accessory cabinet and backup batteries, follow these steps:
1.

Mount the accessory cabinet. See figure Figure 4-3 for the four cabinet mounting holes.
•

If mounting onto drywall the accessory cabinet must be mounted onto 3/4-inch plywood. This is necessary because the weight of the batteries inside the accessory cabinet could cause the cabinet to pull
away from the drywall.

•

When mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is expected, attach a piece of ¾”” plywood to
the concrete surface and then attach the RBB cabinet to the plywood.

•

If using the battery cable extenders provided (P/N 140643), mount the RBB cabinet no more than 18"
away from the main control panel cabinet. This will ensure that the battery cables reach the battery terminals.

SBUS Wiring

This section contains information on calculating SBUS wire distances and the types of wiring configurations
(Class B).

4.4.1

Calculating Wiring distance for SBUS modules

The following instructions will guide you in determining the type of wire and the maximum wiring distance that
can be used with control panel SBUS accessory modules.
To calculate the wire gauge that must be used to connect SBUS modules to the control panel, it is necessary to
calculate the total worst case current draw for all modules on a single 4-conductor bus. The total worst case
current draw is calculated by adding the individual worst case currents for each module. The individual worst
case values are shown in the table below.
Note: Total worst case current draw on a single SBUS cannot exceed 1 amp.
Model Number

Worst Case Current Draw

.040 amps

5880 LED I/O Module

5865 LED Fire Annunciator

.200 amps

5496 Intelligent Power Supply

.010 amps

After calculating the total worst case current draw, Table 4-1 specifies the maximum distance the modules can be
located from the panel on a single wire run. The table insures 6.0 volts of line drop maximum. In general, the
wire length is limited by resistance, but for heavier wire gauges, capacitance is the limiting factor.
These cases are marked in the chart with an asterisk (*). Maximum length can never be more than 6,000 feet,
regardless of gauge used. (The formula used to generate this chart is shown in the note below).

Wiring Distance calculation example:
Suppose a system is configured with the following SBUS modules:
2 - Module 5860 Fire Annunciator
1 - 5496 Notification Power Expander
1 - 5865 LED Fire Annunciator
1 - 5824 Serial/Parallel Printer Interface Module
The total worst case current is calculated as follows:
5860 Current Draw

= 2 x .100 amps

= .200 amps

5496 Current Draw

= 1 x .010 amps

= .010 amps

5865 Current Draw

= 1 x .200 amps

= .200 amps

5824 Current Draw

= 1 x .040 amps

= .040 amps

Total Worst Case Current Draw

= .450 amps

Using this value, and referring to the Wiring Distance table, it can be found that the available options are:
370 feet maximum using 22 Gauge wire
938 feet maximum using 18 Gauge wire
1493 feet maximum using 16 Gauge wire
2362 feet maximum using 14 Gauge wire

LED Wiring

There are four 12-pin connectors on the 5880 board for connecting LEDs. Each LED gets its power from Pin 11.
Internal resistors are sized so that there is approximately 10 mA of current for each LED, no series resistors are
required. LED outputs can be mapped to output circuits. See Section 6 for programming details.
Wire the LEDs as shown in Figure 4-19.
On connector P1, Pin 12 is a common open collector output for controlling a PZT. If used, the 5880 PZT will
match the PZT pattern of the on-board (or 5860) annunciator.
Note: The circuit connected to common “Open Collector Output” (last pin on P1) must be current limited so that
no more than 100 mA of current is allowed to flow into the open collector transistor.

NAC Circuits 1-4 on the control panel can be used as auxiliary power circuits. The four types of auxiliary power
available are:
•

Door Holder (see section 4.11.2.1)

•

Constant (see section 4.11.2.2)

•

Resettable Power (see section 4.11.2.3)

•

Sounder Sync Power (see Section

Auxiliary power circuits are power limited. Each circuit can source up to 3A (total current for all NAC circuits
must not exceed 6A).
To install an auxiliary power circuit:

4.11.2.1 Door Holder Power
Door holder power is intended for fire door applications. When there are no alarms in the system and the panel
has AC power, door holder circuits have 24-volt power present at their terminals. Any alarm will cause power to
disconnect. Power will be re-applied when the system is reset. If AC power is off for more than 15 seconds, the
auxiliary door holder power will be disconnected to conserve the battery backup. When AC power is restored,

Note: Figure 4-29 uses UL listed door holder Model 1400 from Door Control International as an example.

4.11.2.2 Constant Power
Use constant power for applications that require a constant auxiliary power source. Power is always present at
Constant circuits.

4.11.2.3 Resettable Power
Resettable power is typically used to power beam detectors, flame detectors and conventional 4-wire smoke
detectors. For circuits selected as Resettable, 24-volt power is always present at the terminals unless a system
reset occurs. If a system reset occurs, power is disconnected from the terminals for 30 seconds, then re-applied.

4.11.2.4 Sounder Sync Power
Sounder Sync Power continuously outputs the System Sensor synchronization pattern and is intended for use
with B200S sounder bases.

SK and SD SLC Device Installation

5.6

151274-L8

Addressing SK SLC Devices

All SK devices are addressed using the two rotary dials that appear on the device board. Use the ONES rotary
dial to set the ones place in a one or two digit number, and use the TENS rotary dial to set the tens place in a two
digit number.
SK device addresses are handled differently than SD device addresses. The control panel recognizes when an SK
detector or SK module is installed. For this reason, SK detectors can be assigned any unique address from 1 to
99, and SK modules can be assigned any unique address from 1 to 99. Unlike SD detectors and modules which
share addresses 1 through 127, there can be an SK detector using address 1 and an SK module using address 1. 0
is an invalid address.
Example 1: To select device address 1, turn the ONES rotary dial to 1 and the TENS rotary dial to 0 as shown in
Figure 5-5.
Example 2: To select device address 42, turn the ONES rotary dial to 2 and the TENS rotary dial to 4 as show in
Figure 5-5.

Example 1: Device Set to 01.

Example 2: Device Set to 42.

All dials labeled for ONES
or TENS position.

This section tells how to address detectors and modules.

5.8.1

SD505-PHOTO or SD505-HEAT

The SD505-PHOTO photoelectric smoke detector and SD505-HEAT heat detector are easily addressed at the
FACP. The Installer Code is required to perform this task.
To address a SD505-PHOTO or SD505-HEAT:
1. Connect a detector base temporarily to the programming terminals as shown in
Figure 5-7. (You can use the same base for each detector).

Figure 5-7 Temporary Connection of Detector Base to Panel for Addressing
2.

Enter the Installer code, then press ENTER.

Select 2 for Point Functions.

Select 3 for Set SLC Dev Addr.

Select “Yes” by pressing the up arrow, then press ENTER. (The panel will go into trouble at this point. You
can use the SILENCE key to stop the PZT. The trouble will clear automatically when the panel reinitializes
when you finish programming.)

When the wait message clears, the following options display:
1- for Read Address. Use to read (or check) a single detector’s address.
2 - for Write Address. Use to program a single detector’s address.
3 - for Seq. Programming. Use to program more than one detector in sequential order.

If you are changing addresses, write the programmed address on the back of the device.

To exit press left arrow until fully exited.

Section 6
Programming Overview
This section of the manual is intended to give you an overview of the programming process. Please read this
section of the manual carefully, especially if you are programming the control panel for the first time.
The JumpStart feature automates many programming tasks and selects default options for the system. You will
run JumpStart at least once when you are installing the system. See Section 6.1 for details. After you run
JumpStart, you may need to do some additional programming depending on your installation. Section 7 of this
manual covers manual programmable options in detail.
Programming the panel can be thought of as a three part process. You must program:
•

System options. These are options that affect general operation of the panel (see Section 7.6 for details).

•

Options for input points and zones. These are primarily options that control detection behavior of devices
(see Section 7.5 for details).

•

Options for output points and groups. This includes selecting characteristics for output groups and mapping
output circuits to output groups (see Section 7.5 for details).

6.1

JumpStart Autoprogramming

The JumpStart feature allows for faster system setup. When you run JumpStart (immediately after addressing
SLC devices), the system scans devices on all SLC loops and determines device type (for example, ionization
smoke detector or heat sensor) and selects some system options based on the device type. This saves the installer
from having to program options for each device. Depending on the application, the installer may need to make
some changes after JumpStart completes.
See Section 6.1.3 for complete details about running JumpStart.
IMPORTANT
JumpStart is intended to be run one time only, immediately after SLC devices have been addressed and connected.
JumpStart will reset all manually programmed options to default settings. Do not run JumpStart after you have configured
the system.

6.1.1

Input Points

JumpStart will determine the number and type of input points (detectors or contact monitor modules) on each
SLC loop. JumpStart assigns the correct detector type (heat, ionization or photoelectric), so the installer does not
need to edit device type for detectors. Any contact monitor modules on the system will be assigned type "Manual
Pull." The installer will need to manually change the switch type if manual pull is not correct.
JumpStart creates one zone (Zone 1) and assigns all input points to Zone 1. Zone 1 is mapped to Output Group 1.
After JumpStart completes, you can re-map to configure a multiple zone/output group system (see Section
7.3.1.3). For a general explanation of mapping, see Section 6.2.

6.1.2

Output Points

JumpStart creates three output groups and assigns output circuits as follows:
Circuits 1-4:
Configured as Notification and assigned to Group 1. JumpStart automatically programs Zone 1 to activate Group

6-1

Programming Overview

151274-L8

1 using constant on output when an alarm condition occurs.
Circuit 5 (Relay 1):
Assigned to Group 124. JumpStart automatically programs Zone 1 to activate Group 124 using constant on
output when a supervisory condition occurs.
Circuit 6 (Relay 2):
Assigned to Group 125. JumpStart automatically programs Zone 1 to activate Group 125 using constant on
output when an alarm occurs.
Addressable output points (Relay modules, NAC Modules, Sounder Bases, Relay Bases):
All addressable relay devices will be configured as "Output Pt" (general purpose output point) and assigned to
Group 1.
Note: Relay output is constant even if the zone activating the relay is programmed with an output pattern.

6.1.3

Running JumpStart AutoProgramming

Run JumpStart immediately after you have addressed and connected all input devices (detectors, pull stations,
and so on) and output devices (notification appliances, relays, and so on).
Note: If you need to install a few devices after you have run JumpStart, you can install them manually. Follow
instructions in Section 7 for configuration.
To run JumpStart, follow these steps.
1.

Press ENTER to view the Main Menu.

From the Main Menu Select 7 for the Program Menu.

From the next menu, select 6 for JumpStart.

Mapping Overview

This section of the manual is an overview of mapping. Details about how to select mapping options appear in the
appropriate subsections in Section 7.
Mapping is an important concept with the control panel. In general terms, mapping is assigning or linking events
to outputs that should activate when events occur. You do this by assigning input points to input zones, output
points to output groups and then linking or mapping zones and output groups.
Figure 6-1 is a brief overview of the concept of mapping. The next several pages of the manual show these
subjects in detail.

Input Point Mapping

Input points are assigned to input zones. Any input point can be assigned to any input zone. (Input points can be
assigned to one zone only. An input point can be designated as "Unused," which means it has not been assigned
to a zone.)

Zone Event Mapping

There are 11 types of events that can occur in zones (see below). For each event type, you can activate up to 8
output groups and patterns. If it is necessary to map to more than 8 output groups, an output group template may
be used (see Section 7.4.5 for information on output group templates). Event types are:
•

Manual Pull Alarm

•

Water Flow Alarm

•

Detector Alarm (heat or smoke detectors)

•

Aux 1 and Aux 2 Alarm (user-specified alarm types)

•

Pre-alarm

•

Supervisory

Programming Using the 5660 Silent Knight Software
Suite

You can use the 5660 Silent Knight Software Suite (SKSS) to program the control panel onsite or remotely.
SKSS is an optional software package that lets you easily program the control panel using a Windows-based
computer and a modem* (not sold by Silent Knight). When using SKSS, you can set up the programming options
for the panel, save the options in a file, then download the file to the panel. You connect to the control panel
directly using the control panel’s onboard USB or serial port or remotely using a modem. If you need to connect
to an older control panel that does not have a USB port, and your laptop does not have a serial port, use a USB to
serial converter. SKSS includes an Online help system and a manual. See the SKSS manual (PN 151240) for
more information.
*

See Section 1.3 for a list of modems that have been tested for compatibility with the control panel
and SKSS.

Section 7
Programming
This section of the manual describes how to manually program the control panel from the built-in annunciator.
Each subsection discusses these menu options in detail. All options described in this section can be performed
using the Silent Knight Software Suite 5660.

Important!
Before any customized programming is done, Jump-start should be run first. After Jump-start is run,
thoroughly test the system. The reason the system should be tested after Jump-start is because Jump-start
automatically programs the system, searching for and configuring all SLC and SBUS devices it finds. Jumpstart allows you to confirm the integrity of the installation prior to performing any custom programming.
After determining that the hardware is properly installed, custom programming can be performed. Refer to
Section 6.

Table 7-1 list the delay choices and a description of each.
Table 7-1: Alarm Delay Characteristics
Type of Delay

Description

1-Count

One Count (No Delay). When this option is enabled, an alarm occurs immediately when a
single device of any of the following types goes into alarm: detector, manual pull, water flow,
Aux1 or Aux2. This is considered the most typical operation and is the default for all zones.

2-Count

When this type of alarm delay is used, two or more detectors within the zone must go into
alarm in order for the zone to report an alarm. Switches of type manual pull, water flow, Aux1
and Aux2 are an exception; they will cause an alarm when only one switch is in alarm.
When a single detector is in alarm in a 2-Count zone, the system enters a prealarm condition.
In a prealarm condition, the touchpad PZT beeps and the annunciator display indicates that a
prealarm has occurred. If the zone has been mapped to an output group for the prealarm
event, the output group will activate. The prealarm will not be reported to the central station.

Alarm Ver.

Alarm verification is an optional false alarm prevention feature that verifies an alarm condition
by resetting the smoke detector. If the alarm condition still exists by the time the reset cycle has
completed, the detector will go into alarm. If the detector is no longer in alarm, no report will go
to the central station. The alarm verification sequence is ignored if the zone is already in alarm.

PAS

This option is intended to be used with an acknowledge switch. An alarm is delayed for 15
seconds, giving on-site personnel a chance to investigate the alarm. If the acknowledge switch
is not activated within 15 seconds, an alarm occurs automatically.
If this option is enabled for a zone, the zone will respond to an alarm condition as follows:

• The zone will not go into alarm for 15 seconds to allow an on-site operator to
activate the acknowledge switch.
• If the operator does not press the acknowledge switch within 15 seconds, the
zone will go into alarm.
• If the operator presses the acknowledge switch within 15 seconds, a 180-second time-frame will begin counting down. This time-frame allows the operator to
investigate the cause of the alarm.
If the operator performs a reset within 180 seconds, the alarm will not occur.
If the operator does not perform a reset within 180 seconds, an alarm will occur automatically.
• The P.A.S. feature will be overridden if another alarm occurs.
SNGL ILOCK

See Section 8.7.1 for single interlock releasing operation.

DBL ILOCK

See Section 8.7.2 for double interlock releasing operation.

Note: SK-FIRE-CO and other CO detectors can only be installed in a 1 count zone; they will operate
as a 1-count point regardless of the programmed zone type (i.e. Alarm Verification, 2 count,
etc.).
4.

Press ENTER.

Heat Temperature Setting
Use this feature to set the temperature at which high temperature detectors will respond. All detectors in the zone
will respond in the same way. The range for the SD505-AHS heat detector is from 135°F to 150°F. The range for
SK-Heat-HT heat detector is from 135°F to 190°F.
The SD505-AHS and SK-Heat-HT heat detectors are absolute temperature devices. This means that they respond
to an alarm immediately if the temperature in the zone goes above the programmed temperature.
5.

Enter the temperature at which the heat detector will respond, or use the
or
keys to scroll through
the range or enter directly from the number keys on the annunciator, then press ENTER.

Zone Outputs

Output groups and cadence patterns are mapped to events. They can be programmed to output when an event
occurs in a zone. Some system trouble events can be mapped for the entire system. Section 6.2 of this manual
contains a general explanation of mapping. The following sections explain how to select mapping options.
Note: Use of multiple notification groups may not synchronize with each other.
Mapping to Zone Events
Eleven types of events can occur in zones. For each event type, you can activate up to 8 output groups or output
group templates, specifying a pattern for each. The following is a list of all event types:
Note: Abbreviations in parentheses are the characters that are displayed in programming.

Zone Mapping Example
Suppose you want to program Zone 1 so that:
•

Any alarm (detector, water flow or manual pull) would activate Output Group 1 using the ANSI cadence
pattern.

•

Manual pull alarm would activate Output Group 3 using constant output.

•

Troubles would activate Output Group 2 using the zone-coded cadence pattern.

To accomplish this you need to access the screen for each event and then select your output groups. Figure 7-5
shows how you would program this application.

Group

An output group is made up of output points that have been programmed to respond in the same way. Output
groups simplify programming because you have to program the output characteristics that are common to all of
the group points once, instead of programming each individual point. Once you have defined the characteristics
of output groups, you can assign each point to the appropriate group. All valid output points are assigned to only
one output group. Unused points are not assigned to any output group. Up to 125 output groups can be defined.

7.4.1

Latching / Non-latching Outputs
Outputs that are programmed as Latching remain active until the system has been manually reset. Non-latching
outputs stop activating automatically when the condition clears.
Silencing Options
The following silencing options are available for each output group.
Table 7-2: Silencing Options
Option

Description

SILENCE

Silenceable. The output group can be silenced through the SILENCE key.

NON-SIL

Not silenceable. The output group cannot be silenced. Activation of the SILENCE key will be ignored
for this output group.

AUT UNSIL

Auto Unsilenced. If this option is selected, the output group can be silenced for a programmed timeframe. If the condition that caused the output to activate has not cleared during the time-frame, the
output reactivates. If you select this option, select the time-frame in the delay field. Range is 05-60
minutes. (See Figure 7-9 for location of field.)

SIL-INHIB

Timed Silence after Inhibit. If this option is selected, the output group must be audible for a
programmed number of minutes before it can be silenced. If the condition that caused the output to
activate has not cleared during the time-frame, the output can be silenced. If you select this option,
select the timeframe in the delay field. Range is 05-60 minutes. (See Figure 7-9 for location of field.)

SHUT-DOWN

If this option is selected, the output group will automatically silence (shut down) after the programmed
time period. If you select this option, select the timeframe in the delay field. Range is 05-60 minutes.
(See Figure 7-9 for location of field.)

Response with System-Wide Conditions
You can select whether an output group will respond to various system-wide occurrences. (See Figure 7-9 for
location of this field).

Fire Drill Activation. Select Yes if you want this group to activate for fire drills.

Sys Aux1 and Sys Aux2

Select Yes if you want this output group to activate for system-wide Aux1 and Aux2
alarms. (Aux 1 and Aux 2 alarm types are for auxiliary alarm conditions. For example, you
might want to use Aux 1 to provide a unique alarm type.)

Ignore Global Cad

Ignore Global Cadence. If you want to create an output group that can never be
overridden, you can select Yes for this option. Selecting No means that system-wide
events that have been assigned an output pattern could override the pattern for the
output group.
For example, suppose you had assigned a set of strobes to Output Group 3. You would
never want these strobes to output in a pattern under any circumstances. To make sure
this happens, select Yes for Ignore Global Cadence for Output Group 3.

Reverse Polarity

This option programs the output group for reverse polarity operation.
Selecting Reverse Polarity -Troubles for polarity reversal connections will cause the
output group to be de-energized for any system trouble.
Selecting Reverse Polarity - No Troubles for city box (auxiliary) connections will cause
system troubles to be ignored, but all troubles will still be annunciated locally. Activation is
accomplished through standard mapping methods. Use with the 7644-L8 assembly to
implement reverse polarity. See Section 4.13.3.2 for more information on the 7644-L8.

Edit Output Group Templates

Some installations may require that zones be mapped to more than 8 output groups. With output group templates
you can combine one or all output groups into one template, which can be used when the same combination of
outputs are used for several zones.
For example, lets say an installation has five zones (See Table 7-4). The check mark indicates what output groups
are mapped to each zone. You will notice that every zone is mapped to outputs 1 and 2. As an alternative you can
create a template that combines output group 1 and 2 as one choice.

This can be done by creating a template which includes output groups 1 and 2. Then you can map all the zones to
the template you created. This will free up output group assignments that are common to several zones. This is
very useful when you need to map zones to more than eight output groups.
To create Output Group Templates:
1. From the Main Menu, select 7 for Program Menu.

Supervisory switches can be latching or nonlatching.

MAN_PULL

Use this switch type for manual pull stations.
This input is always latched. The switch can
clear only when an alarm is reset.

WATERFLOW

Use this switch type for monitoring water flow
in a sprinkler system. Switch closure will
cause a sprinkler alarm. Water flow switches
can be programmed as latching or nonlatching.
You can program a delay of up to 90 seconds
to be used with a water flow switch. The delay
allows for normal, brief changes in sprinkler
system water pressure. The water flow alarm
will not activate unless the switch is active for
the programmed delay time.

Note: Waterflow delay of the FACP and
the waterflow device shall not exceed 90 seconds.

SLC Loop

If a delay is used, the system begins counting
down when the switch closes. If the switch
opens (restores) before the timer expires, a
water flow alarm is not generated. If the water
flow switch remains closed after the timer
expires, a water flow alarm will be generated.

SWITCH

SUPERVISY

Non Latching

Use this switch type for tamper monitoring of
sprinklers and other fire protection devices. If
a contact closes, a sprinkler supervisory
event will be generated. Supervisory switches
can be latching or non-latching.

FIREDRILL

System-level, non latching switch. This switch
is an alternative way of causing a fire drill. It
has the same operation as the fire drill option
available from the annunciator. When the
switch is activated, a fire drill begins; when
the switch is de-activated, a fire drill ends.

SILENCE

System-level switch provides an alternate
way to silence the system; same effect as
pressing the Silence key.

RESET

System-level switch provides an alternate
way to reset the system; same effect as
pressing the Reset key.

Check Detector Sensitivity Through Point Status

The control panel constantly monitors smoke detectors to ensure that sensitivity levels are in compliance with
NFPA 72.
If sensitivity for a detector is not in compliance, the panel goes into trouble, generating a CAL TRBLE condition.
A detector enters a CAL MAINT state to indicate that it is approaching an out of compliance condition (but is
currently still in compliance).
When a CAL TRBLE condition occurs, the central station receives a detector trouble report (“373” and the zone
or point for Contact ID format; “FT” and the zone or point in SIA format).
To check sensitivity for an individual detector, follow the steps below. Section 8.5.20 provides instructions for
printing the status of all detectors in the system.

Releasing Operations

This control panel supports two types of releasing: Double Interlock Zone and Single Interlock Zone. The
Double Interlock Zone operation requires an interlock switch input in the system, and the Single Interlock does
not. An interlock switch is typically a dry-contact pressure switch.
When a Single or Double Interlock Zone releasing is selected the system will automatically default the following
system parameters:
Note: The defaults created can be modified through programming if desired.
•

Output Group 2 is created. Output Group 2 will be defaulted as an “Alarm” output group for all releasing
zones. NAC [34:001] is assigned to Output Group 2.

•

Output Group 3 is created. Output Group 3 will be defaulted as an “Pre-Alert” output group for all releasing
zones. NAC [34:002] is assigned to Output Group 3.

•

Output Group 4 is created. Output Group 4 will be defaulted as a “Release” output group for all releasing
zones. NAC circuit [34:003] is assigned to Output Group 4.

Note: The installer must define which input points will be used for detectors, manual release switches, or interlock/pressure switches.

Single Interlock Zone Releasing

A single interlock zone utilizes a minimum of two addressable detectors, and a designated manual release switch.
Important!
Only addressable detectors can be used. No conventional detectors can be used.
Each Single Interlock Zone input requires at least one manual release switch.

Conditions Required for an Pre-Alert Output Activation
If any single addressable detector is activated, the “Pre-Alert” output will activate. This alerts the user that the
initial stages required for a release condition are present. (Also refer to Table 8-3.)
Conditions required for an General Alarm and Release Output Activation
If two or more addressable detectors, or a manual release switch activate, the “Alarm” and the “Release” outputs
will activate and the “Pre-Alarm” output will deactivate. (Also refer to Table 8-3.)

Testing and Troubleshooting
10.1 Troubleshooting
This section of the manual offers suggestions for troubleshooting hardware problems. Please read this section if
you encounter a problem when installing the control panel. If these suggestions do not solve your problem or if
you encounter a problem that is not listed here, contact Silent Knight Technical Support at 800-446-6444 for
assistance.

10.2 Common Problems
Problem

Possible Cause / Suggested Actions

Trouble message “DBL ADDR” An address has been assigned to more than one detector. Correct the address
(Double Address) displays on
following the procedure described in Section 5.8 is using SD devices or Section 5.6 if
LCD.
using SK devices.
Auxiliary power or notification
circuits have incorrect polarity.

Correct polarity. For notification and auxiliary power circuits: When in alarm or
powered, terminals labeled “X” are positive, terminals labeled “O” are negative.

SLC devices are not being
recognized (trouble message
“Missing” displays).

Check hardware connections.
If devices are physically connected, make sure wiring is correct (see Section 5.4). For
the main panel, the positive side of device must be connected to terminal 34; the
negative side must be connected to Terminal 33. For SLC devices, make sure the
device connects to the SLC loop via the SLC OUT terminals.
Make sure SLC devices have been addressed properly following the procedure
described in Section 5.6 or 5.8.
For contact monitor modules, which are addressed using DIP switches, the DIP switch
must be set to the correct address before power is applied to the SLC loop. If this
procedure is not followed, the device will have an incorrect address.
Make sure correct polarity has been observed for SLC device wiring. Section 5.8 is
using SD devices or Section 5.6 if using SK devices.

SLC devices are not being
recognized (trouble message
“Missing” displays on the
annunciator).

Check that SLC loop impedance is within the required range.
To measure impedance, use the following procedure.
1. Disconnect both wires from the terminal block at the panel (SLC devices can
remain connected).
2. Measure the impedance from positive to negative and from negative to positive.
Both measurements should be greater than 500 K ohms. If the installation uses Ttaps, test each T-tap individually.
3. Temporarily connect the positive wire to the negative wire of the SLC loop at the
point farthest from the panel (SLC devices can remain connected).
4. Measure the impedance from positive to negative and from negative to positive.
Both measurements must be less than 50 ohms.

10-1

Testing and Troubleshooting

151274-L8

Problem

Possible Cause / Suggested Actions

The panel indicates a ground
fault trouble condition (trouble
message “GROUND FAULT”
displays).

An earth ground fault occurs when the panel senses an unexpected flow of current
from one or more of its terminals to the earth connection (Terminal 2).
Isolate the wiring that is causing the fault by removing wiring connections one at a
time until the earth fault is no longer present. Pause at least five seconds after
removing a wire before removing the next one.
The panel will also go into ground fault if a computer is connected to the panel via a
serial cable attached to the panel’s 9-pin connector or USB. This is a correct method
for on-site communication between a panel and a computer. Ignore the ground fault
message in this case. The trouble will clear automatically when you disconnect the
computer from the cable

5496 module that has been
physically connected to the
panel but is not being
recognized.

Check the status of the 5496 green LED. If it flashes in the pattern .5 sec on / .5 sec.
off, it is likely that the 5496 has not been added to the system through programming.
JumpStart will add any 5496s connected to the panel. If you have already run
JumpStart, 5496s can be added manually (see Section 7.2.2).
Check that the correct ID for the 5496 module has been set through the DIP switches.
Assign ID#1 to the first 5496 and ID#2 to the second 5496. See Section 4.9 for
complete details.
If the wiring between the 5496 and the panel is correct, measure the voltage from
5496 Terminal (+) to Terminal (-). Voltage should be in the range 27.2-27.4V when
AC power is present.
If the green LED is not flashing, the likely cause is incorrect wiring from between the
5496 and the panel. See Section 4.4 for wiring details.

10.2.1

Periodic Testing and Maintenance

To ensure proper and reliable operation, it is recommended that system inspection and testing be scheduled
monthly or as required by national and/or local fire codes. Testing should be done by a qualified service
representative if a malfunction is encountered.
Before Testing:
1.

Notify the fire department and/or central alarm receiving station if an alarm condition is transmitted.

Notify facility personnel of a test so that alarm sounding devices are ignored during the test period.

Testing: Conduct a fire drill
1.

Rotate the key or enter a code to access the Main menu.

Press 1 for System Test.

Press 1 to select Fire Drill.

Press ENTER to begin the drill. To end the drill, press any key.

To conduct a fire drill from a remote fire drill switch: Activate the switch to begin the drill; de-activate the switch
to end the drill.
Measure battery voltage while the Notification Appliances are sounding. Replace any battery with terminal
voltage less then 85% of rating. Reapply AC power and press RESET.
Note: Note: Replace Batteries every 5 years.
Return all switches to their normal outward positions. Notify fire department, central station and/or building
personnel that the test is complete.

A.2 Two-Wire Smoke Detectors
Table A-2 lists two-wire smoke detectors that are compatible with the fire control panel. The
table is organized by manufacturer. The columns show the number of detectors per loop that
can be used.
5808
24H

Identifier
Operating Voltage Range

18.5–27.4 VDC

Note: The maximum number of smoke detectors per zone is determined by both the current draw and the impedance of the smoke detector. If too many smoke detectors are used on any zone, false alarms could occur.
Do not mix different models of detectors on any zone; false alarms could occur.
Do not mix detectors of different models unless the system is specifically intended to be installed in that
configuration.
Control unit Smoke Reset Time must be programmed for a number greater than or equal to the maximum
reset time of the smoke detector.

All products that are returned to Honeywell for credit or repair require a RMA (Return Authorization)
number. Call Customer Service at 800-328-0103 or 203-484-7161 between 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. EST,
Monday through Friday to obtain a return authorization number.

•

Honeywell Silent Knight and Farenhyt Series Technical Support is available at 800-446-6444 between 8:00
A.M. and 5:00 P.M. CST, Monday through Friday.

•

All returns for credit are subject to inspection and testing at the factory before actual determination is made
to allow credit.

•

RMA number must be prominently displayed on the outside of the shipping box. See return address example
under Advanced Replacement Policy.

•

Included with each return should be: a packing slip that has the RMA number, a content list, and a detailed
description of the problem.

•

All products returned by Honeywell must be sent freight pre-paid. After the product is processed, Honeywell
will pay for shipping product back to customer via UPS ground.

•

Return the Honeywell Silent Knight product circuit board only. Products that are returned in cabinets will be
charged an additional $50 to cover the extra shipping and handling costs over board only returns. Do not
return batteries. Honeywell has the authority to determine if a product is repairable. Products that are
deemed un-repairable will be returned to the customer.

•

Product that is returned that has a board date code more than 36 months from date of manufacture will be
repaired and the customer will be assessed the standard Honeywell Silent Knight repair charge for that
model.

Advanced Replacement Policy
•

Honeywell Silent Knight and Farenhyt Series offers an option of advance replacement for fire product
printed circuit boards that fail during the first 6 months of the warranty period. These items must be returned
with transportation charges prepaid and must be accompanied by a return authorization.

•

For advance replacement of a defective board, contact your local Honeywell Silent Knight distributor or call
Honeywell Silent Knight at 800-328-0103 to obtain a RMA (Return Authorization) number and request
advanced replacement.

•

A new or refurbished board will be shipped to the customer. The customer will initially be billed for the
replacement board but a credit will be issued after the repairable board is received at Honeywell Silent
Knight. All returned products must comply with the guidelines described under “General Terms and
Conditions” and “Repair and RMA Procedure”.

•

The defective board must be returned within 30 days of shipment of replacement board for customer to
receive credit. No credit will be issued if the returned board was damaged due to misuse or abuse.
