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:

LDM Series Lamp Driver Modules - Graphic Annunciator
The LDM Series Lamp Driver Modules, which consist of the LDM-32F master and LDM-E32F expander modules,
are used to provide an interface to a custom graphic LED annunciator. The master module provides power and con-
trol for a maximum of three expander modules. The LDM-32F and LDM-E32F have output connectors which are
used to drive lamps or LEDs and input connectors which are used for remote switch functions. Refer to the LDM
Series Lamp Drive Modules Manual for a complete description. See “ACS and LDM Series Wiring” on page 73, for
wiring requirements and “System Edit” on page 45, for details on programming the MS-9200 for annunciator use.
The LDM-32F
The Lamp Drive Module LDM-32F has 32 alarm lamp/LED driver outputs which sink cur-
rent to system common (-) on activation. A single positive (+) voltage is required to supply
total operating power for all lamps or LEDs when all drivers are activated. The LDM-32F
provides a separate driver for system trouble and inputs for a local lamp test switch. A
maximum of 16 external control switches may be wired to the LDM-32F. DIP switch SW3
is used to enable or disable the onboard piezo sounder, enable remote switch functions,
select a flashing LED function for new alarms and troubles and other functions. Switch
SW4 is used to configure the module to annunciate 32 alarms or 16 alarms and 16 troubles.
A green On Line LED flashes to indicate ongoing communications with the host FACP.
One LDM-32F supports up to three LDM-E32F modules. The LDM-32F is supplied with
four standoffs and screws for mounting to a CHS-4L chassis or custom backbox.
The LDM-E32F
Each LDM-E32F expander module provides 32 additional lamp/LED driver outputs from
J5, J6, J7 and J8. The expander module has a slide switch, SW4, for selecting alarm only
or alarm and trouble annunciation and an input for a local lamp test switch. In alarm only
mode, use only one LDM-32F and one LDM-E32F for a maximum of 56 alarm indicators
and 8 system status indicators. In alarm/trouble mode, use one LDM-32F and three LDM-
E32Fs for a maximum of 56 alarm indicators, 56 trouble indicators, 16 status indicators
and 64 optional control switch inputs. Multiple sets of LDM-32Fs with LDM-E32F
expanders increase the system annunciation capabilities beyond 56 zones or points. This is
possible by various settings of address switches SW1 and SW2 on the LDM-32F (refer to
Appendices). Each LDM-E32F is supplied with a 26-conductor expander ribbon cable,
four standoffs and screws.

1.7.5 FCPS-24F/E Remote Field Charger Power Supply for System Power Expansion
The FCPS-24F/E is a compact, remote power supply with battery charger. This remote power supply consists of a fil-
tered 24 VDC output that may be configured to drive up to four Notification Appliance Circuits [four Style Y (Class
B) or two Style Z (Class A) and two Style Y (Class B)]. Alternately, the four Notification Appliance Circuits may be
used as auxiliary filtered power configured for resettable or nonresettable operation.
The FCPS-24F/E may be used in a number of different applications. It may be used as a remotely-mounted power
supply and battery charger powering up to four, coded or noncoded, Notification Appliance Circuits. Alternately, any
or all of these circuits may be used as 24 VDC output circuits capable of powering 4-wire smoke detectors or any
device that requires filtered power. These circuits may be configured as resettable or nonresettable outputs to expand
FACP auxiliary system power.
One of the most common applications for the FCPS-24F/E remote power supply utilizes the NAC expander mode. In
this application, one or two NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits) are connected from the main control panel NAC
output(s) to the remote power supply Control Input circuits. When these Control Input circuits activate (due to
reverse polarity of the NAC output), the power supply will activate its corresponding outputs. NAC Control Input #1
controls power supply output circuits #1 and #2. NAC Control Input #2 controls output circuits #3 and #4.
During the inactive state, the remote power supply supervises its NAC field wiring for short and open circuits. If a
fault is detected, the supply will enter a trouble condition and illuminate the corresponding NAC trouble LED (Out-
put Circuits 1-4). However, once the NACs are activated, the supervision is disabled and the circuits are no longer
supervised. Supervision of other power supply faults such as low battery, earth fault, AC loss and battery charger
failure will continue and may be monitored via the independent trouble relay contact.
If a specific application requires that all four outputs activate at the same time, only one NAC control input from the
FACP is necessary. For this application, the NAC from the FACP is wired into NAC Control Input #1 of the remote
supply and then a pair of wires are connected from NAC Control Output #1 to NAC Control Input #2. Refer to the
FCPS-24F/E Installation, Operation and Application Manual for a complete description and examples of applica-
tions.
A CMF-300 Control Module, which can be located up to 10,000 feet (3,000 m) from the FACP, may be used to acti-
vate the FCPS power supply. The Control Module can be powered from the FCPS auxiliary 24 VDC power output
(TB3 Terminals 8 & 9) and supervised by an EOL relay.

The UDACT-F may be mounted directly to the MS-9200 main circuit board or
remotely in an ABS-8RF or UBS-1F enclosure up to 6,000 feet (1,800 m) away from
the control panel. All power must be removed from the control panel before making
any connections to prevent circuit damage. The ACS Comm terminal is connected to
the UDACT-F, using twisted shielded pair wire. Power should be wired from the con-
trol panel's 24 VDC (nominal) filtered, nonresettable output to TB1 on the UDACT-F
(except when mounted in the MS-9200).
Mounting Inside the MS-9200 Enclosure
The MS-9200 must have firmware, with P/N 73580 or higher, installed to allow use of the UDACT-F. Remove all
power from the MS-9200 by disconnecting AC and batteries. Install the supplied standoffs (three nylon and one alu-
minum) in the appropriate holes located on the right side of the MS-9200 main circuit board, as illustrated in Figure
2-11, “UDACT-F Mounting to MS-9200,” on page 30. Using the ribbon cable supplied with the UDACT-F, connect
J10 on the UDACT-F to J16 on the MS-9200. Note that the colored edge of the ribbon cable must be oriented toward
the top edge of the UDACT-F as illustrated in Figure 2-11. Carefully seat the UDACT-F on the nylon standoffs and
secure to the aluminum standoff with the supplied screw
The EIA-485 circuit and 24 VDC power are provided directly from connector J16 of the MS-9200. Note that a 120
ohm EOL resistor is not required on the UDACT-F EIA-485 terminals when it is installed inside the MS-9200 cabi-
net. The EOL resistor is required at the last device (if any are installed) on the EIA-485 line external to the MS-9200

ules provide relay activation for each of the 56 possible FACP zones plus
special functions. Options exist to allow for alarm only or alarm and trou-
ble activations per zone. Output activation for general alarm, general trou-
ble, general supervisory, NAC fault, AC fail, walktest start and battery
trouble are also available. Refer to the ACM-8RF Manual Appendix for
information on setting module switches for addressing and relay functions.
The ACM-8RF is installed on the standard ACS (EIA-485) communication
bus and wiring is supervised by the FACP. Power for the module must be
power-limited and may be provided by the FACP or a UL listed power sup-
ply such as the FCPS-24F/E. Up to 32 ACM-8RF Relay Control Modules
may be placed onto the EIA-485 communication bus (if no other devices
are installed on the bus). Removable terminal blocks are provided for ease
of wiring installation and servicing. Refer to the ACM-8RF Manual for UL power-limited wiring requirements and
switch SW4 receive/transmit selection options. The ACM-8RF module can be mounted remotely in an ABS-8RF
annunciator surface-mount backbox.
CAUTION: It is vitally important that, following relay programming, all relays be tested for correct activation by
triggering zones and/or special functions at the FACP. It should also be noted:
ACM-8RF relays will activate during the Alarm Presignal sequence
ACM-8RF relays will not activate during the Alarm Verification Retard and Reset Periods

Printer/PC and Terminal Mode Annunciator Interface
2.9 Printer/PC and Terminal Mode Annunciator Interface
A serial printer, personal computer or Terminal Mode annunciator may be connected to TB7 on the FACP main cir-
cuit board. Switch SW3, located on the bottom center of the main circuit board, must be set to configure terminal
block TB7 for the appropriate device. Placing SW3 in the ‘up’ position (RS-232 PC/Printer) will allow connection of
most 40 and 80 column printers and most IBM PC/XT/AT or compatible computers including laptops and personal
computers. Placing SW3 in the ‘down’ position (RS-485 Terminal Mode) will allow connection of most Terminal
Mode annunciators.
CAUTION: DO NOT connect a printer or PC to the MS-9200 FACP if a ground fault exists on the control panel.
Circuit damage may result. Remove all power (AC and DC) before installing or removing any modules or wiring.
Programming
Refer to “System Edit” on page 45, for printer programming instructions.
Installation
Remote printers and PCs require 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz primary power. Also required is an interface cable prewired to
a DB9F connector (cable P/N: 75267) as shown in Figure 2-17 and a DB25 adapter. Connect the interface cable to
TB7 on the MS-9200 main circuit board and the attached cable to the serial EIA-232 port on the printer or PC. Use
the DB25 adapter if a nine pin connector is not available on your printer or PC. Note that a ground fault may occur
on the MS-9200 panel, dependent on the printer used, when this connection is made. For this reason, it is important
that there be no preexisting ground fault on the panel. Consult the factory for recommended printers.
Printer Configuration
Refer to the documentation supplied with the printer for additional pertinent information. Set the printer's options as
listed in the following table.

PIM-24 Interface Module
Older versions of the MS-9200 main circuit board do not have a TB7 connector for direct connection of a PC or
printer. These older boards require the Printer/PC Interface Module P/N PIM-24 to provide an EIA-232 conversion
for adaptation to most 40 and 80 column printers and most IBM PC/XT/AT or compatible computers including lap-
tops and personal computers. The PIM-24 module cannot be used simultaneously with the DIM-485/LCD-40 option.
CAUTION: DO NOT connect a printer or PC to the MS-9200 FACP if a ground fault exists on the control panel.
Circuit damage may result. Remove all power (AC and DC) before installing or removing any modules or wiring.
Programming
Refer to “System Edit” on page 45, for printer programming instructions.
Installation
Older circuit boards require the PIM-24 which includes the Printer/PC Interface Module, interface cable prewired to
a DB9F connector as shown in Figure 2-18 and a DB25 adapter. Connect the Printer/PC Interface board to J11 on the
MS-9200 main circuit board and the attached cable to the serial EIA-232 port on the printer or PC. Use the DB25
adapter if a nine pin connector is not available on your printer or PC. Note that a ground fault may occur on the MS-
9200 panel, dependent on the printer used, when this connection is made. For this reason, it is important that there be
no preexisting ground fault on the panel. Consult the factory for recommended printers.

Programming/Read Status
CHAPTER 3 Programming/Read Status
NOTE: This chapter provides a detailed description of the FACP programming. For your convenience, a Program-
ming Flowchart has been included in Screen Options Flowchart” on page 84. It may be helpful to follow along with
the flowchart as this chapter is reviewed.
The MS-9200 is completely field programmable and requires no special software skills. Programming may be
accomplished in one of three ways:
The Autoprogram Feature - this method is very convenient for quickly bringing the MS-9200 on-line or for
program editing
Manual Programming or editing, using the MS-9200 keypad
The Off-Line Programming Feature - this method allows creation of site-specific custom programs using a
DOS-based or Windows-based computer. For programs requiring a large amount of data entry, this method
may be preferred. A PK-9200W programming kit may be ordered for this purpose.
When a programmed system is normal with no active alarms, troubles or supervisories, the 'SYSTEMS ALL
NORMAL' screen will be displayed as shown below:
In order to (1) program the system, (2) read system status, (3) print, (4) edit or (5) walktest, the ENTER key must first
be pressed. After pressing ENTER, the screen shown below is displayed:
Pressing 1 will select system Programming, which may only be accomplished by an authorized user. Before attempt-
ing to program the system, place the SW1 Write Protect switch in the down position. SW1 is located on the lower-
right side of the MS-9200 main circuit board. Refer to the illustration on page 8. If the switch is in the up 'Write
Protect' position while attempting to enter the Programming Mode, the LCD will display the following:
In order to program the system, a valid password must first be entered. Once the correct password is entered, the user
may select Autoprogram or Program Edit. After programming is completed, return switch SW1 to the Write Protect
position.

Program Level 1 is for system configuration in which data relating to device types, zoning, messages, etc. is
entered into the system memory
Program Level 2 is where a qualified operator can access features such as Disable, Clear History, Walktest,
Time Change and Program Check. For Program Level 2, the SW1 Write Protect switch should remain in the
up 'Write Protect' position
2 = Read Status: Entering Read Status allows the user to read the status of any point/zone in the system plus display
or print the history file or print the entire user program or print addressable smoke detector data readings. The Read
Status feature is NOT password protected. Read Status is explained in “Operating Instructions” on page 51.
3 = Read BAT: Entering RD BAT allows the user to read the battery voltage. The RD BAT feature is NOT password
protected. The following screen is displayed upon entering RD BAT:
“Initial Power-up” describes initial programming procedures for a new system. The same procedures are used to
modify programming in an existing system. Make certain the SW1 Write Protect switch is in the down position
before attempting any Level 1 Programming functions.
3.1 Initial Power-up
After completing the wiring of addressable devices to the SLC loop, power up the fire alarm system. Since the
addressable devices have not yet been programmed into the FACP, their LEDs will not flash, the System Trouble
LED will be on and the LCD display will alternate between the following two displays:
If the system remains unprogrammed, the piezo will sound after a few minutes. It can be silenced by pressing the
Acknowledge/Step switch, but it will continue to resound until the system is programmed.

Passwords
There are two factory set programming passwords, '00000' and '11111', which will access two different screens as
indicated in the preceding section. From either of the screens, access to specific system and device programming
may be obtained. All programming entries are stored in nonvolatile memory. The factory set passwords can be
changed by the user and a method exists to clear one or both passwords. Note that for Canadian applications, both
passwords must be changed from the factory settings. If an invalid password is entered, the display will read
'INCORRECT PASSWORD'. To exit from Programming operations at any time, press the Backspace (left arrow)
key repeatedly.

3.3 Program Change - Level One
When the correct password is entered, the MS-9200 will enter Level 1 program mode. In this mode, the trouble relay
is activated and the System Trouble LED flashes and cannot be changed to steady and the piezo sounder is off. The
following display will appear:
3.3.1 Clear
Pressing '0' will clear all general system programming options described in “System Edit” on page 45, and all pro-
grammed addressable devices from the nonvolatile memory of the MS-9200. Before executing the Clear command,
the display will prompt the user to press ENTER in order to verify the command before the system actually clears
programming data. CLEAR is a useful command when the unit is first installed, prior to autoprogramming. Note
that it is necessary to 'Autoprogram' after using the clear function.
3.3.2 Autoprogram
Pressing '1' enters the Autoprogramming mode. The main purpose of autoprogramming is to allow the installer a fast
and easy way to bring the system on-line as quickly as possible. The first time the system is brought on-line, it must
be autoprogrammed. Autoprogram is also the only way to add or delete devices.
Once Autoprogram is selected, the MS-9200 automatically polls all devices installed/wired to the SLC loop. The
panel communicates with each individual addressable device and displays the type of device at each address location
starting with detectors and then modules.
While autoprogramming the system, the MS-9200 will display the following:
Verification of each device address and type installed on the SLC may now occur. If information is correct, press the
ENTER key, if incorrect, press the left arrow key to delete. In addition, adjective and noun descriptors plus zone
assignments may be added to the display field per device address. If the Reset key is pressed at this time or the panel
is allowed to time-out after 10 minutes of inactivity, a 'System Corrupted' message will appear. Be certain to step
through all devices, using the Enter or left arrow key.
The first time that autoprogramming is selected, all points installed on the SLC loop are identified. Default device
type (monitor, smoke detector, control) and software zone assignments for each device are displayed. On any succes-
sive enabling of the autoprogram feature, the LCD will display only the newly installed, deleted or changed devices
on the SLC loop.
Devices which match the program already in memory are not changed and are not shown to the operator. Devices
which do not match the program (not the same address and/or type) are shown to the operator. Devices inadvertently
set to the same address are identified and displayed on the screen.

New Detectors
For each new detector, the Autoprogram feature selects default program values and presents the information to the
user. A typical example follows:
In the preceding example:
'P' in 'P01' represents the actual type code (photoelectric) of the detector found at address 01. ('I' would repre-
sent an Ionization detector)
The ADJ (adjective) and NOUN fields are blank, but may be user programmed
'Z00' is the default zone selection meaning 'general alarm' (main circuit board NAC outputs 1 & 2). Refer to
“Software Zones” on page 65, for software zone assignments.
After the new detector is displayed, press ENTER to accept the default information shown or press the left arrow (tri-
angle to the left of ENTER) to reject the autoprogram information and not enter it into memory. In most cases, adjec-
tive, noun descriptors and zone assignments will be added by using the following procedure.
The MS-9200 will lead you through the program editing process. A blinking cursor moves through the fields as you
press the right arrow key (triangle to the right of ENTER). After moving into other fields, you may return to a previ-
ous field by pressing the left arrow. Change the blinking fields by pressing the up arrow key, the down arrow key or
by pressing the appropriate numeric key.
Custom words may be entered via the keypad. The alphanumeric operation of the keypad changes a blinking letter in
the ADJ and NOUN fields. For example, to enter the letter 'R', repeatedly press the 7 key to step through 7, P, R and
S, stopping when R is displayed. Press the right arrow key (do not press ENTER at this time) to move to the next let-
ter display position.
To reduce the number of key presses, the user may also select from a library of stored words. The ADJ field library
provides five-character words selected by the up arrow or down arrow keys from the following list of available
words:
The ADJ (adjective) field may be loaded from the library list above and then modified letter-by-letter if desired.
Pressing the up or down arrow keys steps through the library. Once the up or down arrow keys are pressed, the blink-
ing cursor moves to the last character of the ADJ field, assuming that the user will next want to move beyond this
field.
Pressing a key on the 12-key pad changes the letter indicated by the blinking cursor. Any alphanumeric character
may be entered. Pressing the right or left arrow key moves the blinking cursor one letter right or left. When the right
arrow key is pressed with the blinking cursor on the last letter of the ADJ label, the cursor will move to the first letter
of the NOUN field.

Altering the NOUN field is done in a similar way. Use the up or down arrow keys to step through the NOUN library
which is listed below:
In addition, the user may use the Recall/Increment function at any time when the cursor is on the first letter of the
ADJ or NOUN field as follows:
If the zero is pressed, a '0' is placed in the first letter position
If the zero key is then pressed a second time with no intervening key actions, the entire ADJ field is replaced
with the field entered for the previous device programmed, and the cursor moves to the last character of the
field (Recall function). The Recalled ADJ or NOUN field may now be changed letter-by-letter
If the Zero key is pressed again with no other intervening key actions and the last character in the field is a
number '0-9', the number is incremented by one. If the last character is a letter, it changes to a '0'. If the last
character goes from 9 to 0 and the characters to the left of the last character are also numbers, they are also
incremented (overflow)
The above increment function may be repeated with each press of the Zero key
As an example, the user could quickly enter 'FLR_3_ROOM_305' as follows:
1. The cursor is on the first letter of the ADJ field. Press the Zero key twice to display 'FLR_3'
2. With the cursor on the first letter of the NOUN field, press the zero key twice to recall the display
'ROOM_304'. The cursor automatically jumps from the first to the last letter of the NOUN field
3. With the cursor on the last letter of the NOUN field, press the Zero key again to increment the room number to
'305'
4. Press the right arrow key to advance to the Zone field
5. Select a zone number from 00 to 56. Z00 (default zone) is the general alarm zone. Z01 through Z56 may be
selected to link software zones.
To load the addressable device's program into memory at any time, press the ENTER key. After pressing ENTER,
autoprogram displays the next new detector. If a detector had been previously entered into memory, but is missing
(no answer), the display shows the following:

If ENTER is pressed, the device is deleted from memory and autoprogram displays the next new device. If the left
arrow is pressed, the program is unchanged and the next new device is displayed.
After all new detectors are presented for editing, the autoprogram feature displays the modules on the SLC loop start-
ing with the device found at the lowest address.
Monitor Module Autoprogram
Monitor Module Autoprogram is similar to Detector Autoprogram. When a new monitor module is presented, a typ-
ical display might be:
The major program editing for monitor modules is the selection of the Type Code on the first line. To change this
selection, use the up and down arrow keys as the entire field blinks. The default selection is monitor as shown in the
screen above. Note that selection of a type code may change the functional operation of the addressable device.
Follow the same procedure as described in New Detectors section, for editing of the ADJ and NOUN fields. The
default zone selection is Z00 (main circuit board NAC outputs 1 & 2) and may be set to Z01 through Z56 if desired.

Control modules default to Zone 00 (general alarm). All type code options are silenceable except Relay and Strobes.
The selection of control module type codes may change their function. Select the type code from the library list
below. Use the arrow keys as described in the New Detectors section.
Select an adjective descriptor from the library list shown in the New Detectors section. Use the arrow keys as
described in the New Detectors section. Control modules may be assigned to a maximum of three software zones
(refer to “Software Zones” on page 65). Zone Z00 represents general alarm. All control modules are assigned to
Zone Z00 upon initial power-up.
3.3.3 Point Edit
While displaying the Program Level 1 Menu screen (see “Program Change - Level One” on page 40), pressing '2'
allows for editing of the point (addressable device) descriptor screens. These screens show the device type, the
device address, adjective and noun field descriptors and the software zone locations that the point is assigned to.
Point editing is performed after autoprogramming and may be done at any time, except during an alarm condition.
The following display will appear:
For example, select Detector address 3 program edit by pressing * key (* = detector), followed by numeric key '3',
followed by ENTER. Select Module address 3 program edit by pressing the # key (# = module), followed by the
numeric key '3', followed by ENTER. If there is no device installed at this address , the panel displays the next higher
address where a device is installed. After editing is complete and ENTER is pressed, the display returns to the above
menu. Rather than reentering the next point number, the user may press the up or down arrow key to display the next
lower or higher existing point. Using software P/N 73750 or greater, to edit NAC 1 or NAC 2, press the * key, then
the # key, the press '1' for NAC 1 or '2' for NAC 2. Select either 'BELL_CKT' for silenceable functionality or
'STROBE' for nonsilenceable functionality. Use the system edit menu described in “System Edit” on page 45, to
select coding. Coding is only possible if the NAC is programmed as 'BELL_CKT'. The point display formats and the
method of editing are described in “Autoprogram” on page 40.

Pressing '2' displays the following screen:
Press the ENTER key to clear the 500-event History file. Press the left arrow key (backspace) to exit without clearing
the History file. Caution: Pressing Enter will clear all History events associated with this panel. Care should be
taken to ensure this is the appropriate action.
3.4.3 Walktest
If '3' is pressed, followed by ENTER, the following is displayed:
Press '1' to perform a silent walktest with all sounding devices, control modules and the NAC 1 and NAC 2 outputs
OFF. Select '2' to perform an audible walktest which sounds all silenceable control modules and NAC 1 and NAC 2
(if programmed as 'BELL_CKT' as explained in “Point Edit” on page 44) output during walktest. Disabled NAC out-
puts will not activate during walktest. Each alarm and trouble condition (short and open) will be printed in real-time
and stored in the 500 event history buffer. After pressing either '1' or '2', the screen shown below will appear:
If ENTER is pressed, the second line goes blank and the unit is in Walktest mode. Walktest may be stopped at any
time by pressing the left arrow key (backspace), returning the unit to the main screen. A one hour time-out automati-
cally returns the system to normal operation.
Shorted/Alarm Condition
When in Walktest, the panel responds to each new alarm and activates its programmed control outputs for four sec-
onds, if those control outputs have been programmed for silenceable activation. It also stores each alarm in the his-
tory file and printer with a 'TEST XX' status label. XX is a count of the number of times a device with this address
has been tested. Note that this is a convenient way to identify two detectors that are erroneously set to the same
address. A complete Walktest will cause a 'TEST 02' indication for the addresses to which both devices are set and no
TEST report for the address that one of the devices should have been set to.

Note that if the system under test includes one or more enabled MMF-302 monitor modules, the following may
apply:
If the MMF-302 monitor module is used for a supervised, 2-wire smoke zone, alarming any monitor module in
the system will result in the activation of programmed control outputs for an additional eight seconds or less. This
is caused by the temporary removal of 24 VDC resettable power from the MMF-302. The MMF-302 reports this
loss of power as an open condition in addition to the alarm condition.
Open Condition
Addressable devices as well as both main circuit board NACs are monitored for fault conditions during Walktest
mode. When a new trouble condition occurs, it activates all control modules programmed for Walktest and Bell Cir-
cuit 1, then shuts them off after an 8 second interval (4 seconds longer than alarms). The trouble status label is 'TEST
T'.
While in Walktest, the trouble relay is on and the System Trouble LED flashes (as in all of Program and Status change
operations). The alarm relay is not activated. The LCD displays the following:
3.4.4 Set Time and Date
If '4' is pressed, the following is displayed:
The first digit of the hours is flashing and may be changed with the numeric pad. The right arrow moves to the next
digit. The up and down arrows select (A)M or (P)M, day of the week, month, day and year. Pressing the ENTER key
stores the time and date and returns to the Level 2 screen.
3.4.5 Check
Program selection '5' performs a check on software zone assignments. The MS-9200 looks for output devices
assigned to a software zone that does not contain any input devices (detectors, monitor modules). If multiple devices
fail the check, the up and down arrow keys are used to step through the list of devices. The user must return to point
editing to correct any errors.
Note that the system continues monitoring alarm conditions during all Programming and Read Status operations with
the exception of Walktest.
At the completion of system programming, switch SW1 (Write Protect) should be set to the Write Protect position to
prevent inadvertent changes to programmed features. Slide the switch to the up position to select the Write Protect
feature. Refer to Figure 2-8, “Option Module Locations,” on page 29, for the location of SW1.

Operating Instructions
CHAPTER 4 Operating Instructions
4.1 Control Switches (Keys)
4.1.1 Acknowledge/Step
The Acknowledge/Step key silences the piezo sounder and changes all flashing LEDs to steady. Only one press is
necessary regardless of the number of new alarms, troubles or supervisory signals. When the piezo is silenced, an
'Acknowledge' message is sent to the printer and the history file. Multiple active events are scrolled on the display at
a three second rate. Acknowledge also automatically sends a 'Silence Piezo' command to the LCD-40, ACS and
LDM Series annunciators.
When more than one event exists, the first press of the Acknowledge/Step key silences the piezo and changes all
flashing LEDs to steady. The second press of the key stops the scrolling and holds the event on the display for one
minute. Subsequent pressing of the key 'steps' through each active event.
4.1.2 Alarm Silence
The Alarm Silence key performs the same functions as Acknowledge/Step. In addition, if an alarm exists, it turns off
all silenceable circuits and causes the Alarm Silence LED to turn on. It also sends an 'Alarm Silenced' message to the
printer, the history file and the LCD-40. A subsequent new alarm will resound the system.
4.1.3 Drill Hold 2 Sec.
When the Drill key is held for two seconds (time required to prevent accidental activations), the MS-9200 turns on
both main panel NAC outputs and all silenceable circuits (all control modules/NACs that are programmed silence-
able) and turns off the Alarm Silence LED. The 'Manual Evacuate' message is shown on the LCD display. The same
message is sent to the printer and history file. The Silence key operates on silenceable NAC outputs only.
4.1.4 System Reset
Pressing the System Reset key turns off all control modules and NACs, temporarily turns off resettable power to 4-
wire detectors, causes an 'All Systems Normal' message to be displayed on the LCD and stores 'System Reset' in the
printer and history file. It also turns on all LEDs, piezo sounder and LCD display segments as long as the System
Reset Key is held (lamp test). Any alarm or trouble that exists after System Reset will resound the system.

4.2 LED Indicators
The six LED indicators on the front panel operate as follows:
AC Power
This is a green LED which illuminates if 120 VAC power is applied to the MS-9200(C) or 240 VAC power is applied
to the MS-9200E.
Fire Alarm
This is a red LED that flashes when one or more alarms occur. It illuminates steady when the Acknowledge/Step or
Alarm Silence key is pressed. The Alarm LED turns off when the System Reset key is pressed.
Supervisory
This is a yellow LED that flashes when one or more supervisory conditions occur, such as a sprinkler valve tamper
condition. It illuminates steady when the Acknowledge/Step or Alarm Silence key is pressed. It turns off when
System Reset is pressed.
Alarm Silence
This is a yellow LED that turns on after the Alarm Silence key is pressed (preceded by a fire alarm condition). It
turns off when the Drill or System Reset key is pressed.
System Trouble
This is a yellow LED that flashes when one or more trouble conditions occur. It stays on steady when the Acknowl-
edge/Step or Alarm Silence key is pressed. The LED turns off when all trouble conditions are cleared. This LED
will also illuminate if the microprocessor watchdog circuit is activated.
4.3 Normal Operation
With no alarms or troubles in the system, the display message is 'Systems All Normal' along with the current time and
date as shown below. To set the time and date, see “Set Time and Date” on page 50.
The MS-9200 performs the following functions at regular intervals while in normal mode:

Trouble Operation
4.4 Trouble Operation
With no alarms, the detection of a trouble in the system will cause the piezo to sound, the System Trouble LED to
flash and the trouble relay to activate. A message will appear on the LCD display indicating the trouble condition.
The same message is sent to the printer and history file along with time and date. A ground fault will also cause the
yellow Ground Fault LED, located on the bottom of the main circuit board, to turn on.
Addressable Smoke Detectors
For addressable Ionization or Photoelectric smoke detectors, the following is a typical message that could appear on
the LCD display for a detector in trouble.
The information displayed in the first line in the example above provides the following information:

Monitor and Control Modules
The following is a typical message that could appear on the LCD display for monitor modules and control modules in
trouble.
The information displayed in the first line in the previous example provides the following information:
The type of event - in this example TRBL indicates Device Trouble
The Specific Device Troubles for a module - the # symbol will be replaced by a digit representing a specific
trouble condition (refer to the list of Specific Device Troubles for a module below)
Type of device - in this example, MONITOR indicates a monitor module

<ADJ> - user programmed adjective descriptor from library list or custom entry (five characters maximum)
<NOUN> - user programmed noun descriptor from library list or custom entry (ten characters maximum)
Zone - zone to which the point is assigned
The # symbol in the display will be replaced by a digit that represents the Specific Device Troubles as listed below:
Pressing the Acknowledge/Step key will cause the piezo to silence and the System Trouble LED to turn on steady.
This occurs regardless of the number of troubles, alarms and supervisory events active in the system (block acknowl-
edge). When the Acknowledge/Step key is pressed and at least one new alarm or trouble exists in the system, the
'Acknowledge' message is sent to the printer and history file. If the trouble clears, either before or after Acknowl-
edge, the 'Clear Trouble' message is sent to the printer as illustrated by the following example:
CLR TRBL_# SMOKE DET P01 <ADJ><NOUN> ZONE# TIME and DATE
If all troubles clear and there are no supervisory or fire conditions active in the system, the system returns to normal
operation status and the 'Systems All Normal' message is shown on the LCD display and stored in the history and
printer files. Trouble restore occurs even if the troubles were never acknowledged (auto-restore).
If the Alarm Silence key is pressed when only troubles exist, it will have the same effect as the Acknowledge/Step
key. The Alarm Silence LED will not be illuminated unless there was also an alarm in the system.

Alarm Operation
If multiple trouble conditions exist in the system, they will be scrolled on the LCD display automatically at a three
second rate. If a combination of alarms, troubles and/or supervisory conditions occur in the system simultaneously,
only the alarms are scrolled on the display. If the Acknowledge/Step key is pressed, the display stops on the present
item for one minute or until the Acknowledge/Step key is pressed again. As the Acknowledge/Step key is pressed,
the MS-9200 displays events in the following priority order:
1. Alarms in address order
2. Supervisories in address order
3. Troubles in address order
4.5 Alarm Operation
Alarm operation is similar to trouble operation, but with the following differences:
The piezo sounder produces a steady output, not pulsed
The System Alarm (not Trouble) LED flashes
ALARM: device name, type and address are displayed
Alarms latch and are not allowed to clear automatically
Alarms activate software zones (control-by-event logic) if so programmed
Timers (Silence Inhibit, Autosilence, Trouble Reminder) are started
Alarms activate the general alarm relay and zone Z00 (NAC 1 and NAC 2)
The trouble relay is not activated
A typical alarm display would be:
4.6 Supervisory Operation
Supervisory operation is similar to alarm operation but with the following differences:
The piezo sounder is a warbling sound
The Supervisory LED (not Alarm) flashes
The Display Status label is Active
Supervisory relay is activated
Silenced alarms are not resounded
Timers are not started
The alarm relay is not activated
A typical Supervisory event would display:
Note that, like alarms, supervisory signals latch (except when programmed for supervisory autoresettable) and can be
assigned to a software zone. Supervisory alarms do not cause resound as do other alarm conditions. Open circuits in
supervisory wiring are processed by the MS-9200 the same way as other trouble conditions.

NAC (Notification Appliance Circuit) Operation
56 Document #51003 Rev.E 01/11/02 P/N 51003:E
4.7 NAC (Notification Appliance Circuit) Operation
There are two NACs on the MS-9200. For software releases prior to P/N 73750, NAC 1 is programmable and factory
defaulted to general alarm, silenceable and March Time coding operation. NAC 2 is not programmable and is fixed
as general alarm, nonsilenceable and may not perform coded functions.
For software releases 73750 or greater, both NAC 1 and NAC 2 are programmable. Both NACs may be either
silenceable or nonsilenceable and may be programmed as steady or coded operations. Coded operation includes
March Time, Temporal or California types. Refer to “Coded Operation - NAC 1 and NAC 2” on page 57, for addi-
tional information on coding.
4.8 Control-By-Event Operation
Each addressable detector and monitor module can be assigned to one software alarm zone. Control modules may be
assigned to a maximum of three software zones. A general alarm zone (Z00) may be listed for output (control)
points, but it is not necessary to list Z00 for input points, as this is the default zone. Z00 is not activated by supervi-
sory points.
When an input device (addressable detector or module) alarms and is not disabled, it activates all software zones
assigned to it. An output device (control module or NAC) that is not disabled is turned on when any of the software
zones, to which it is mapped, become active.
4.9 Detector Functions
Maintenance Alert
Each detector is monitored by the control panel for its maintenance status. If a detector is within 80% of its alarm
threshold for a 24 hour period, a 'maintenance alert' message will be automatically displayed, signaling that the detec-
tor needs servicing.
Automatic Test Operation
An automatic test of each detector is performed every two hours. The detector's sensing chamber and electronics are
functionally tested for normal, safe operation. A trouble message is displayed upon failure of this test. System Reset
clears this trouble.
Detector Data
An addressable smoke detectors ability to detect smoke can change over time as a result of component deterioration
due to environmental contaminants and dirt. A listing of each addressable smoke detectors sensing data can be
printed by the control panel while in Read Status mode. Refer to “Read Status” on page 58.
Type Code Supervision
The MS-9200 monitors hardware device type codes (CP350, SD350, SD350T, MMF-300, MMF-301, MMF-302,
CRF-300 and CMF-300) at slow intervals. Mismatch of any type code, compared to the system program, will cause
a device trouble.
System Alarm Verification
The panel may be programmed to perform alarm verification. Alarm verification applies to detectors only. Refer to
“Alarm Verification” on page 58, for a description of the Alarm Verification Timer.
Document #51003 Rev.E 01/11/02 P/N 51003:E 57
Time Functions: Real-Time Clock
4.10 Time Functions: Real-Time Clock
The MS-9200 includes a crystal-based clock that provides time of day, date and day of week. Time is displayed as 12
hour time with month/day/year and is stored in RAM. If both AC and battery power are lost, the time must be reset.
4.11 Coded Operation - NAC 1 and NAC 2
Shown below are the pulse rate outputs via NAC 1 or NAC 2 when coded operation is selected. Note that software
releases prior to P/N 73750 allow coding of only NAC 1. Releases 73750 or greater allow coded functions on both
NAC 1 and NAC 2.
CONTINUOUS: No Pulse
MARCH TIME: Pulses at 120 ppm (pulses per minute)
TEMPORAL CODE: Pulses at ½ second On, ½ second Off, ½ second On, ½ second Off, ½ second
On, 1½ seconds Off
CALIFORNIA CODE: 10 seconds On, 5 seconds Off
4.12 Presignal
Presignal is used to delay output activation (control modules and NACs) while allowing for visual verification by a
person. Once a detector or monitor module triggers an alarm, the onboard piezo sounds immediately, but the Notifi-
cation Appliance Circuits are not activated for 15 seconds. During this time, if the Acknowledge key is pressed, the
piezo is silenced and the notification appliances will not activate for up to three minutes. After three minutes, the
NACs will activate if the source of the alarm is not cleared. This does not affect monitor modules programmed as
waterflow or supervisory. Presignal operation requires the approval of the local Authority Having Jurisdiction.
4.13 Special System Timers
4.13.1 Silence Inhibit Timer (None or 60 Seconds)
This option, if selected, prevents the Alarm Silence and Reset keys from functioning for 60 seconds after an initial
alarm. A new alarm during the initial 60 seconds will not cause the timer to restart with a new 60 seconds. Silence
Inhibit operation requires the approval of the local Authority Having Jurisdiction.
4.13.2 Auto-silence Timer (None or 10 Minutes)
If Auto-silence is selected, the notification appliances will be silenced automatically after ten minutes of activation.
Pressing the Drill key will restart the timer with a new 10 minutes. Auto-silence operation requires the approval of
the local Authority Having Jurisdiction.
4.13.3 Trouble Reminder
If selected, this feature causes a reminding 'beep' every 15 seconds during an alarm (after the Silence key is pressed)
and every two minutes during a trouble condition (after the Acknowledge or Silence key is pressed). The 'beeps'
from the onboard piezo sounder will occur until the alarm or fault is cleared.

Read Status
The operator presses '2' and the Read Status display shows:
From the display shown above, an operator may select one of the choices as listed below:
To Display Point Status, the type of device to be read must first be identified by pressing the * key for a detec-
tor or the # key for a module. The two-digit device address is keyed in next, followed by the Enter key
To Display Zone status, press the * key then press the * key a second time. Next, key-in the zone number (1 -
56) and press Enter. The Up and Down arrow keys are used to view the next or previous zone
To Display System Parameters, press the * key then press the * key again followed by Enter
To Display Bell Circuit status, press the * key, followed by the # key and then the digit '1' or '2', followed by
the Enter key
To display the 500-event History file on the LCD, press the '1' key followed by the Enter key. The Up and
Down arrow keys are used to step through the entries in the file
To Print Program Contents and Current System Status or History File or addressable smoke Detector Data,
press the '2' and then the Enter keys. A new menu appears which prompts the user to press '1' to print Pro-
gram/Status, '2' to print History file or ‘3’ to print Detector Data.
During this and all subsequent operations except print operations, a two minute timer is started that will cause the
panel to return to the previous display if no key is pressed within two minutes. Each key press restarts the two minute
timer. A press of the left arrow (backspace) key deletes the previous entry. If there is no entry, it will cancel the Read
Status operation and return to the previous display. System Reset will also cancel the Read Status operation.
Display Point
Display Point operations display addressable device status on the LCD display. After the status of the device is dis-
played, the Up arrow key may be used to display the status of the next highest addressable device and the Down
arrow key may be used to display the status of the previous addressable device. The sequence of point display is
Detector points 01 - 99, Module points 01 - 99, NAC bell circuits 01 & 02, System Parameters and Zones 1 - 56.
A typical Read Status display is as follows:
In the preceding display:
NORMAL is the present status (could be ALARM, TRBL_#, DISABL, etc.)
SMOKE (DET) is the device type P indicates that this is a photoelectric detector (could be I if
ionization or PULL BOX, HORN CKT, etc.) and 01 is the device address
WEST HALLWAY is the custom label programmed for this device

Read History
The MS-9200 has a 500-event history buffer. Stored events include Point Status, System Troubles, and Acknowl-
edge/Step, Alarm Silence, Drill and System Reset key presses. All events are recorded with the time and date. His-
tory events are stored in volatile memory, therefore, removal of primary AC power and secondary battery power will
clear the history buffer. To clear the History file without removing power, see “Clear History” on page 49. To view
events in the history file, use the Up and Down arrow keys to step through the events.
Print
Pressing ‘2’ while viewing the Read Status screen will cause the following Print screen to be displayed.
Print Program/Status
All user programmed options, including device types, software zone assignments and system parameters, may be
printed by pressing ‘1’ while viewing the Print screen. The printout also includes current system status. See “Printer/
PC and Terminal Mode Annunciator Interface” on page 35, for instructions on connecting a printer.
Print History
The entire 500-event history file may be printed using the Print History feature by pressing ‘2’ while viewing the
Print screen. Refer to “Printer/PC and Terminal Mode Annunciator Interface” on page 35, for instructions on con-
necting a printer.
Print Detector Data
Each addressable smoke detectors data, relating to its ability to detect smoke, can be printed by pressing ‘3’ for
DET_DATA while viewing the Print screen. A printout similar to the following will be generated to an optional
printer connected to the FACP.
The Chamber Reading should be within the indicated ranges for the following smoke detectors:
SD350(T), D350P(R) and SD 300(T) Addressable Photoelectric Smoke Detectors: 405 - 2100 (obscuration of
1.00%/ft. to 3.66%/ft.)
CP350 and CP300 Addressable Ionization Smoke Detectors: 750 - 2100 (obscuration of 0.50%/ft. to 1.44%/
ft.)
If the addressable smoke detectors Chamber Reading is not within the acceptable range, clean the detector and check
the Chamber Reading again. If the reading is still not within the acceptable range, immediately replace the detector.

Power Supply Calculations
Appendix A Power Supply Calculations
A.1 The AC Branch Circuit
The MS-9200 requires connection to a separate dedicated 120 VAC branch circuit, which must be labeled Fire Alarm.
The branch circuit must connect to the line side of the main power feed of the protected premises. No other equip-
ment may be powered from the fire alarm branch circuit. The branch circuit wire must run continuously, without any
disconnect devices, from the power source to the fire alarm control panel. Overcurrent protection for this circuit must
comply with Article 760 of the National Electrical Code as well as local codes. Use #14 AWG (2.00 mm2) wire with
600 volt insulation for this branch circuit.
Use Table A-1 to determine the total amount of current, in AC amps, that must be supplied to the fire alarm system.

A.2 The Main Power Supply
The MS-9200 provides filtered power for operating the fire alarm control panel, operating external devices and oper-
ating the standby battery. The power for operating external devices is limited. Use Table A-2 (standby or nonalarm)
and Table A-3 (alarm) to determine if external loading is within the capabilities of the MS-9200 power supply.
Concerning smoke detectors: refer to the manufacturer's data sheet packaged with each smoke detector to find the
standby and alarm current draws to use in the following tables. Power detectors from TB4, Terminals 5 and 6.
Notes:
1. TB4, Terminals 1 & 2; nonregulated 24 VDC, 2.5 amps
2. TB4, Terminals 3 & 4; filtered 24 VDC +/-5% 120Hz ripple @ 10 mVRMS
3. TB4, Terminals 5 & 6; filtered 24 VDC +/-5% 120Hz ripple @ 10 mVRMS
4. TB4, Terminals 3 & 4; nonresettable auxiliary power, 300 mA
5. TB4, Terminals 5 & 6; resettable smoke detector power, 300 mA
6. Refer to Current Limitations on following page
7. During AC loss, the LCD-40 backlight is extinguished to conserve power, reducing the standby current draw
from the batteries to 0.029 amps
8. Maximum alarm current for each sounder base is 0.015 amps which must be supplied by aux. 24VDC source

Software Zones
Appendix B Software Zones
Setup and configuration of an addressable system is quite different than a conventional system. In a conventional
system, assignment of input devices (smoke detectors, pull stations, heat detectors, etc.) to zones is straight forward.
Wiring is direct from clearly marked panel terminals to any device assigned to a particular zone. Connection of out-
put devices (horns, bells, strobes, etc.) in a conventional system is done by direct wiring of the output device to termi-
nals marked 'bell'.
With addressable systems, the same pair of wires is used to connect to all addressable input and output devices. Com-
munications between the panel and all addressable devices takes place over one pair of wires originating from the
control panel. Software programming is used to configure the system, versus direct wiring. Zone assignment is cre-
ated via software means, hence the term 'software zones'.
Setup of an MS-9200 software zone is straightforward. Any zone may have a minimum of one and a maximum of 99
addressable input devices. Each detector is automatically assigned to a general alarm output. A zone may also have
a minimum of one and a maximum of 99 addressable output devices.
Use the charts on the following pages to help in 'zoning' the system. Note that monitor and control modules make up
one group of 99 addresses. It is critical that addresses of detectors are not duplicated and that monitor and control
module addresses are not duplicated.
In the example on the following page:
Zone 1 has the following addressable devices assigned to it:
SD350 photoelectric detectors with addresses '01' and '02'
MMF-300 monitor module with address '01'
CMF-300 control modules with addresses '03', '04' and '05'
Zone 2 has the following addressable devices assigned to it:
CP350 ionization detectors with addresses '03' and '04'
MMF-301 monitor module with address '02'
CMF-300 control modules with addresses '03', '06' and '07'
Zone 3 has the following addressable devices assigned to it:
SD350 photoelectric detectors with addresses '05' and '06'
CP350 ionization detector with address '07'
CMF-300 control modules with addresses '03', '08' and '09'
The example points out some of the key assignment features of the MS-9200. Addresses of detectors are not dupli-
cated. Addresses of monitor and control modules are not duplicated. The control module at address '03' is assigned
to the maximum three software zones (providing for floor above and floor below). Detectors and monitor modules
are assigned to one software zone.
Be careful to properly plan the installation prior to installing any devices.

LCD-40 Series Annunciator Wiring
72 Document #51003 Rev.E 01/11/02 P/N 51003:E
Appendix C LCD-40 Series Annunciator Wiring
The following drawing illustrates the wiring of two LCD-40 Series Remote Annunciators to an MS-9200 FACP. A
maximum of 32 LCD-40 Series annunciators may be connected to a single control panel. The EIA-485 wiring must
pass through a ferrite core (P/N FBD-1) in each LCD-40 Series. The illustration shows power supplied to the annun-
ciators by the MS-9200. For system applications requiring greater than the 300 mA of nonresettable power the
MS-9200 can supply or for remote locations, use the Fire•Lite FCPS-24F/E Field Charger Power Supply.
The LCD-40 Series Remote Annunciators wire directly to TB7 on the MS-9200 main circuit board. Switch SW3
must be set to the ‘down’ position (EIA-485 Terminal Mode) to configure TB7 for Terminal Mode annunciator oper-
ation. Note that older versions of the MS-9200 main circuit board do not have a TB7 connector. The DIM-485 inter-
face module is required for this board. Align the connector on the DIM-485 board with J11 on the MS-9200 main
circuit board and align the hole on the DIM-485 with the standoff inserted into the main circuit board. Carefully seat
the DIM-485 connector on the main circuit board J11 connector and press to seat the DIM-485 on the standoff.

Wire Requirements
Appendix F Wire Requirements
T-tapping of the SLC loop wiring is allowed for 2-wire (Style 4) configurations. The total resistance of any branch
cannot exceed 40 ohms. The total wire length of all branches cannot exceed 10,000 feet (3,000 m).
Connecting external system accessories to the MS-9200 main circuits must be carefully considered to ensure proper
operation. It is important to use the correct type of wire, wire gauge and wire run length for each MS-9200 circuit.
Reference the chart below to specify wire requirements and limitations for each MS-9200 circuit.
Note: If the SLC loop is to be run in conduit with Notification Appliance Circuits, the risk of encountering problems
can be greatly reduced by exclusively employing electronic sounders (such as MA/SS-24D) instead of more electron-
ically noisy notification appliances such as electromechanical bells or horns.
