An automatic fire alarm system–typically made up of smoke

detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warn-

ing devices, and a fire alarm control 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.

The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detec-

tors be located throughout a protected premise 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. A study by the Federal Emer-

gency 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 de-

signed to provide early warning against fire, they do not guar-

antee 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 build-

ing. 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 be-

cause:

• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, or

chimneys 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.

• 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 ion-

izing-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast-flaming fires

better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in differ-

ent ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither

type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detec-

tor 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 prede-

termined 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 pro-

tection 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 sys-

tem for the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communi-

cations, signaling, and/or power.

If detectors are not so lo-

cated, a developing fire may damage the alarm system, crip-

pling its ability to report a fire.

Audible warning devices such as bells 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 medica-

tion. Please note that:

•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 or comprehend the

meaning of the signal. It is the property owner's responsibil-

ity to conduct fire drills and other training exercise 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 fire alarm 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 com-

patible with the control. It is essential to use only equipment

listed for service with your control panel.

Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a

premise to a central monitoring station may be out of service

or temporarily disabled. For added protection against tele-

phone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are rec-

ommended.

The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is inade-

quate maintenance. To keep the entire fire alarm system in

excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per

the manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA stan-

dards. At a minimum, the requirements of Chapter 7 of NFPA

72 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts of

dust, dirt or high air velocity require more frequent mainte-

nance. 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 pro-

fessional fire alarm installers only. Adequate written records

of all inspections should be kept.

While a fire alarm system may lower insurance

rates, it is not a substitute for fire insurance!

WARNING -

Several different sources of power can be con-

nected to the fire alarm control panel.

Disconnect all sources

of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equip-

ment 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 this

manual is read and understood.

CAUTION -

System Reacceptance Test after Software

Changes.

To ensure proper system operation, this product

must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 Chapter 7 after

any programming operation or change in site-specific soft-

ware. Reacceptance testing is required after any change, ad-

dition or deletion of system components, or after any modifica-

tion, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.

All components, circuits, system operations, or software func-

tions known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested.

In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvert-

ently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not

directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 de-

vices, must also be tested and proper system operation veri-

fied.

This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at

0-49° C/32-120° F and at a relative humidity of 85% RH (non-

condensing) at 30° C/86° F. 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 all peripherals be installed in an environment with a nomi-

nal room temperature of 15-27° C/60-80° 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 light-

ning-induced transients. Although no system is completely

immune from lightning transients and interferences, proper

grounding will reduce susceptibility.

Overhead or outside

aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased sus-

ceptibility to nearby lightning strikes.

Consult with the Techni-

cal Services Department if any problems are anticipated or

encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or in-

serting 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 modifi-

cations, verify that they will not interfere with battery, trans-

former, and printed circuit board location.

Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs.

Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced

terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal

removal.

Though designed to last many years, system components

can fail at any time. This system contains static-sensitive

components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap

before handling any circuits so that static charges are re-

moved 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 by authorized personnel.

Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free

installation with long-term reliability:

WARNING: This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and

used in accordance with the instruction manual, may

Product Description

CHAPTER 1 Product Description

The CMP-2401B is a one zone FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) and the CMP-2402B is a two zone FACP. This

manual will use the term FACP to refer to both the CMP-2401B and CMP-2402B where features are identical. These

control panels provide reliable fire signaling protection for small to medium sized commercial, industrial and institu-

tional buildings. The FACPs use conventional input devices such as two-wire smoke detectors, four-wire smoke

detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices and other normally-open contact devices. Outputs include one NAC (Noti-

fication Appliance Circuit) and 24 volt resettable power. The FACP also supervises all wiring, AC voltage and bat-

tery level.

Activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally open fire alarm initiating device will activate audible and

visual signaling devices, illuminate an indicating LED and sound the piezo at the FACP, activate the FACP alarm

relay and operate an optional module used to notify a remote station or initiate a supplementary control function.

2.3 Operating Power

WARNING: Several different sources of power can be connected to this panel. Disconnect all sources of power

before servicing. The panel and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting modules,

interconnecting cables or wiring while this unit is energized.

Primary Power Source (AC) and Earth Ground Connections

AC power connections are made inside the control panel cabinet. The AC input circuit is limited by fuse F2 (2 amp,

3AG Slow Blow). The primary power source for the FACP is 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 0.5 amps. Run a pair of wires (with

ground conductor) from the protected premises main breaker box to TB3 of the main circuit board. As per the

National and Canadian Electric Code, use 14 AWG (2.00 mm2, 1.6 mm O.D.) or heavier gauge wire with 600V insu-

lation. No other equipment may be connected to this circuit. In addition, this circuit must be provided with overcur-

rent protection and may not contain any power disconnect devices. A separate Earth Ground connection must be

made to ensure proper panel operation and lightning and transient protection. Connect the Earth Ground wire [mini-

mum 14 AWG (2.00 mm2)] to the grounding stud on the backbox. Do not use conduit for the Earth Ground connec-

tion since this does not provide reliable protection.

Secondary Power Source (Batteries)

Observe polarity when connecting the battery. Connect the battery cable to J3 on the main circuit board using the

plug-in connector and cable provided. The battery charger is current-limited and capable of recharging sealed lead

acid type batteries. The charger shuts off when the system is in alarm. See Battery Calculations for calculation of the

correct battery rating.

WARNING: Battery contains sulfuric acid which can cause severe burns to the skin and eyes and can destroy fabrics.

If contact is made with sulfuric acid, immediately flush the skin or eyes with water for 15 minutes and seek immediate

medical attention.

Programming Options

26 Document #50907 Rev.A1 12/03/02 P/N 50907:A1

CHAPTER 3 Programming Options

This chapter describes the programming options available by cutting resistors on the FACP main circuit board.

Options should be selected (resistors cut if necessary) prior to applying power to the control panel.

3.1 Earth Ground Fault Detection

The FACP is factory configured to automatically detect ground fault conditions. A ground fault occurs when a low

resistance is detected between an FACP circuit and earth ground. This condition will cause the System Trouble LED

and Ground Fault LED to turn on and the piezo sounder to pulse.

The Ground Fault Detection circuit can be disabled by cutting resistor R72 on the main circuit board. Refer to the

local codes and consult the local Authority Having Jurisdiction before disabling the Ground Fault Detection circuit.

3.2 Optional 4XTMF Transmitter Module Placement Supervision

The 4XTMF module can be used to connect the FACP to a City Box or Reverse Polarity Remote Station. To super-

vise placement and operation of the module, cut resistor R14. Refer to the local codes and consult the local Authority

Having Jurisdiction before installing the 4XTMF Transmitter Module.

Periodic Testing and Maintenance

CHAPTER 4 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 will be transmitted.

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

3. When necessary, activation of notification appliances can be prevented by using the Signal Silence switch to

silence the zone.

Test in g:

1. Activate a zone via an alarm initiating device and check that active notification appliances sound and the

alarm LED lights. Reset the system and repeat the procedure for each zone*.

2. Momentarily activate the following switches (one at a time) and check for a trouble signal:

✓Reset (all LEDs should illuminate for Lamp Test)

✓Signal Silence

3. Depress the Trouble Silence switch and check for an intermittent audible signal. Return the Trouble Silence

switch to the normal position.

4. Momentarily open the following circuits one at a time and check for a trouble signal:

✓Notification Appliance (bell) Circuit

✓Initiating Device Circuit Zone 1

✓Initiating Device Circuit Zone 2 (CMP-2402B only)

5. If new batteries were installed, wait 48 hours before completing this step. Remove AC power, activate a zone

and check that:

✓The Alarm LED lights

✓All active notification appliances sound

Measure battery voltage while the notification appliances are sounding. Replace any battery with

terminal voltage less than 85% of rating. Reapply AC power and press the Reset switch*.

6. Return all switches to their normal positions. Notify the fire department, central station and/or building

personnel that testing is completed.

*Note that the Reset and Signal Silence switches will not operate for one minute following activation of an alarm.
