Special Installation Requirements
Commercial Fire Panel
The commercial fire panel can be used as a fire warning
system and an intrusion alarm system. When using the com-
mercial fire panel as both a fire warning and intrusion alarm
system, follow the guidelines below:
All aspects of fire and burglary applications must occur in
separate partitions/areas.
All onboard panel inputs and outputs must be used only
for fire or burglary applications. Do not mix fire and bur-
glary applications.
Bus 1 and Bus 2 headers must be used only for fire or bur-
glary applications. Do not mix fire and burglary applica-
tions on inputs and outputs of any bus device.
Some installations may require configurations dictated by
city/state codes, insurance, or Underwriters Laboratories
(UL). See UL Listed Installations for various UL com-
ponent and configuration listings.

Determining the Panel Location
Before permanently mounting the panel, determine the
panel location using the following guidelines:
Centrally locate the panel in relation to detection devices
whenever possible to help reduce wire run lengths and
labor.
Avoid running wires parallel with electrical wiring, or fix-
tures such as fluorescent lighting, to prevent wire runs
from picking up electrical noise.
Locate the panel where the temperature will not exceed
120°F (49°C) or fall below 32°F (0°C).
If optional wireless transceiver module is used, avoid
locations near excessive metal such as HVAC ducts, foil
wallpaper, gas/water pipes, and electrical wiring.
Mount the panel at a comfortable working height (about
45 to 55 inches from the floor to the bottom of the panel,
as shown in Figure 2).
Allow 6.5-inches to the right (or left) of the panel for
wiring, phone jack, and optional module mounting.
Allow at least 24-inches in front of the panel for access to
panel components.
Figure 2. Determining Panel Location
Running Wires to the Panel Location
Once you have determined the best possible panel location,
run any necessary wires for the:
Power transformer
Phone line(s)
Sirens/speakers
SuperBus 2000 alphanumeric touchpads
Hardwired zones
Output devices
Optional SuperBus 2000 modules (such as
Dual Phone Line, Printer Modules, etc.)
System Wire Lengths
The total system wire length allowed varies depending on
devices powered by the panel, the wire length between
devices and the panel, and the combined wire length of all
devices.
Table 11 describes wiring recommendations for various
panel components.
For devices where no recommended wire lengths are
stated, or several devices share the same wire runs to the
panel, please see Table A.2 on page 62 to determine wire
lengths based on current draw and resistance.
Use 18-gauge wire for all commercial installations.
Listed auxiliary power supplies may be used to reach the
4000ft maximum wire length. Please see Table A.2
page 62 to determine wire lengths based on the module(s)
used.

Make sure you are free of static electricity whenever you
work on the panel with the cover open. To discharge any
static, first touch the metal panel chassis, then stay in
contact with the chassis when touching the circuit board.
Using an approved grounding strap is recommended.
1. Open the panel door and remove the panel circuit
board, accessory kit, and packing material.
2. Carefully remove the circuit board from the packing
and put it in a safe static free location.
3. Remove the desired panel wiring knockouts.
4. Mount the optional key lock (if used) into the panel
door.
5. Place the enclosure in position against the wall. Make
sure enclosure is level and mark the locations of the
two mounting holes and two keyhole mounting holes.
Remember to leave room near the enclosure for any
optional modules.
6. Use the appropriate mounting anchors and screws for
your application. Partially insert screws into the two
anchors at the two top keyhole locations, and then hang
the panel chassis on the two screws.
7. Recheck level, insert the two lower screws, and then
tighten all four mounting screws.
8. Route all wires to the panel.

Connecting Commercial Fire Devices
For information on connecting commercial fire devices
please see Appendix C on page 107.
Installing an RJ-31X Phone Jack (13-081)
Use the following guidelines when installing an RJ-31X
phone jack for system control by phone and central station
monitoring.
Locate the RJ-31X jack (CA-38A in Canada) no further
than five feet from the panel.
The panel must be connected to a standard analog (loop-
start) phone line, that provides around 48 volts DC (on-
hook or idle).
Note
The panel cannot be used on a digital or PBX phone line.
These systems are designed for digital type devices only,
operating anywhere from 5 volts DC and up. The panel
uses an analog modem and does not have a digital con-
verter, adapter, or interface to operate through such sys-
tems.
For full line seizure, install an RJ-31X phone jack on the
premises phone line so the panel is ahead of all phones
and other devices on the line. This allows the panel to take
control of the phone line when an alarm occurs, even if the
phone is in use or off-hook.
If an analog line is not available, contact your customers
telecommunications specialist and tell him/her you need
an analog line off the phone switch (PBX mainframe) or a
1FB (standard business line).
Note
Connecting the panel to an analog line off the phone
switch places the panel ahead of the phone system, pre-
venting panel access from phones on the premises. How-
ever, the panel can still be accessed from off-site phones.
To connect a phone line to the panel using an
RJ-31X/CA-38A jack:
1. Run a 4-conductor cable from the TELCO protector
block to the jack location (see Figure 18).
2. Connect one end of the cable to the jack.
3. At the TELCO protector block, remove the premises
phone lines (lines from phone jacks on premises) from
the block and splice them to the black and white (or
yellow) wires of the 4-conductor cable.
4. Connect the green and red wires from the 4-conductor
cable to the A (+) and B (-) posts on the block (see Fig-
ure 18).
5. If desired, add phone jack tamper by splicing the black
and yellow phone jack wires to the panel terminals and
adding a 2.0K ohm EOL resistor between the blue and
orange phone jack terminals as shown in Figure 18.
6. Check the phones on the premises for dial tone and the
ability to dial out and make phone calls. If phones do
not work correctly, check all wiring and correct where
necessary. Proceed to Troubleshooting on page 53 if
problems persist.

Testing Hardwire and Wireless Zones/
Sensors
It is recommended that you test all hardwired zones and
sensors after all programming is completed and whenever a
zone/sensor-related problem occurs.
Note
While the zone test is a valuable installation and service
tool, it only tests zone operation for the current conditions.
You should perform a zone test after any change in envi-
ronment, equipment, or programming.
1. Close and secure the panel door.
2. Make sure all zones and sensors are in their secured
(non-alarm) state.
3. Press 8. The display shows SYSTEM MENU.

while monitoring the display.
7. For hardwire zones the system will beep and display
[ZONE #] TEST GOOD in confirmation. If the system
does not respond, check the zone/sensor wiring or
panel programming.
For wireless zones the system will beep, and indicate
[zone #] signal level [##] to confirm the zone number
tested. (Refer to Table A.12 for signal level descrip-
tions.) If the system does not respond, or if the sensor
does not meet the minimum requirements, refer to the
If a Wireless Sensor Fails the Zone/Sensor Test sec-
tion.

code.
If a Wireless Sensor Fails the Zone/Sensor Test
If system does not beep when a sensor is tripped, place an
ITI RF Sniffer (60-401) test tool near the wireless sensor
when tripping to verify that the sensor is transmitting. Con-
stant beeps from the RF Sniffer indicate a runaway (faulty)
wireless sensor. Remove the sensor battery(s) and replace
the sensor.
If possible, locate wireless sensors within 500 feet of the
panel. While a transmitter may have a range of one mile or
more out in the open, the environment at the installation site
can have a significant effect on transmitter range.
Sometimes a change in sensor location can help overcome
adverse wireless conditions.
To improve wireless sensor communication, you can
Reorient the sensor,
relocate the sensor,
if necessary, replace the sensor, or
add additional RF transceivers.
To reorient a wireless sensor:
1. Rotate the sensor and test for improved sensor commu-
nication at 90 and 180 degrees from the original posi-
tion.
2. If poor communication persists, relocate the sensor as
described below.
To relocate a wireless sensor:
1. Test the sensor a few inches from the original position.
2. Move the sensor from the original position and retest
until an acceptable location is found.
3. Mount the sensor in the new location.
4. If no location is acceptable, replace the sensor as
described below.
To replace a wireless sensor:

sensors, perimeter sensors such as those protecting exterior doors and windows
cause an alarm in the HOME/PERIMETER level.
- Closed
- Entry and exit delay
- Can be disabled

moving around, Interior sensors except those in night groups are also active. Same as Level 2.

Figure C4. Connecting Water Flow Devices
Wiring AL602ITI Power Supply
The Advent Fire panel will be configured for a continuous
fire alarm output, and an audible fire alarm output. The con-
tinuous output is used to control visual alarm appliances
(strobes), and is active until a fire alarm is acknowledged
(cancelled). The audible output is used to control audible
alarm appliances (horns), and is active until a fire alarm is
silenced. A trouble indicator output in the AL602ITI acti-
vates a relay output for AC power loss, low backup battery
or trouble on any of the output circuits. This output is
learned in to a fire supervisory input (zone type 96) on the
Advent panel.
If additional power or additional outputs are required, up to
four AL 602ITI NAC Power Supplies can be controlled
from one pair of Advent Fire panel outputs.
Note
The AL602ITI must be mounted within 20 feet of the
Advent panel enclosure and all wiring between the
Advent panel and the AL602ITI must be enclosed in con-
duit.
To wire the trouble indicator:
1. Wire the AC Fail and Battery Fail outputs to the
Fault input in the AL602ITI as shown in Figure C5.
2. Wire the N.O. and C terminals of the common trouble
output on the AL602ITI to an input zone on the Advent
panel as shown in Figure X. This input zone must be
learned into the Advent panel as Zone type 96.
To wire the audible output:
1. Configure a relay output on a 4 relay output module as
an audible (fire alarm-not silent) output (used to control
horns), using Advent downloader software on site.
2. Wire this output relay to input 2 on the AL602ITI as
shown in Figure C5.
Note
The 4 Relay Output Module must be mounted inside the
Advent panel enclosure.
To wire the visual (strobe) output:
1. Configure a relay output on a 4 relay output module as
a continuous fire alarm output (used to control strobes),
using Advent downloader software on site.
2. Wire this output relay to input 1 on the AL602ITI as
shown in Figure C5.
Note
The 4 Relay Output Module must be mounted inside the
Advent panel enclosure.
If additional power or outputs are required, up to 3 addi-
tional AL602ITI NAC Power Supplies can be added by
connecting the RET terminals of the first AL602ITI to the
corresponding IN terminals of the next AL602ITI and so
on. See Figure C5 for details.
Set the DIP switches on the AL602ITI as required for the
horn/strobes used. Refer to the AL602ITI installation
instructions for information on setting the DIP switches and
wiring the output circuits.

FCC Notices
FCC Part 15 Information to the User
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Interlogix Inc. can void the users authority to operate the equipment.
ACTA Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. Located on this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration
number and the ringer equivalence number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company.
FCC Part 68 Registration No. B4ZUSA-27810-AL-E
The REN is used to determine the maximum number of devices that may be connected to your telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result
in devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most areas, the sum of all device RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of
devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the
REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal
point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and require-
ments as adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compliant modu-
lar jack that is also compliant. See the Installation Instructions for details.
Alarm dialing equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other equipment
(telephone, answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use. To do so, alarm dialing equipment must be connected to a prop-
erly installed RJ31X jack that is electrically in series and ahead of all other equipment attached to the same telephone line. Proper installation is depicted in
the following diagram. If you have any questions concerning these instructions, consult your local telephone company or a qualified installer about installing
an RJ31X jack and alarm dialing equipment for you.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect your service. If possible, you will be notified in
advance. When advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the
FCC.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. You will be
given advance notice in order to maintain uninterrupted service.
If you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact the company that installed the equipment for service and/or repair information. The telephone
company may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or you are sure that the equipment is not malfunc-
tioning.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.
