NOTIFIER N-ANN-S/PG Serial Parallel Printer Interface Module
General
The N-ANN-S/PG Interface module connects either a serial or parallel printer
with a compatible Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) to print real-time logs of
system events, detector status reports, and event histories.
The N-ANN-S/PG and the FACP communicate over a two-wire serial interface
employing the ANN-BUS communication for-mat. An additional two wires are used
for 24-volt DC power. A single four-conductor unshielded cable may be used for
both power and data communications.
Up to eight N-ANN-S/PGs may be connected to the ANN-Bus of each FACP.
Features
- Auto-configure menu selection allows programmer to bring all the devices attached to the ANN-BUS on-line quickly.
- Surface mounts directly to wall.
- Can be remotely located up to 6,000 feet (1,829 m) from the panel.
- May be powered by 24 VDC from the host FACP or by remote power supply (requires 24 VDC).
- Connects a remote printer using a standard cable (DB-9 for a serial printer; DB-25 for a parallel printer).
Specifications
- Operating Voltage: 24 VDC
- Current (Alarm and Standby): 45mA
- Ambient Temperature: 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C)
- Relative Humidity: 93% ± 2% RH (noncondensing) at 32°C± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F)
- Maximum wiring distance from FACP: 6,000 ft. (1,829 m.)
- Dimensions: 6.00” (15.2 cm.) high x 7.76” (19.7 cm.) wide x 1.46” (3.7 cm.) deep
- For use indoors in a dry location
- Connections to FACP are power-limited and supervised.
Agency Listings and Approvals
The listings and approvals below apply to the N-ANN-S/PG. In some cases,
certain modules may not be listed by certain approval agencies, or listing may
be in process. Consult fac-tory for latest listing status.
- UL: S635
- CSFM: 7120-0028:242
- MEA: 442-06-E Vol.2
The ANN-BUS
POWERING THE DEVICES ON THE ANN-BUS FROM AUXILIARY POWER SUPPLY
ANN-BUS devices can be powered by an auxiliary power sup-ply when available
panel power is exceeded. See FACP man-ual for information.
ANN-BUS DEVICE ADDRESSING
Each ANN-BUS device requires a unique address (ID Num-ber) in order to
communicate with the FACP. A maximum of eight devices can be connected to the
FACP ANN-BUS com-munication circuit. See the FACP manual for more information.
WIRE REQUIREMENTS
The N-ANN-S/PG connects to the FACP ANN-BUS communi-cations circuit. To
determine the type of wire and the maximum wiring distance, calculate the
total worst case current draw for all modules on a single 4-conductor bus. Use
the following table to determine the maximum distance the modules can be
located from the FACP. In general, the wire length is limited by resistance,
but for heavier wire gauges, capacitance is the lim-iting factor. These cases
are marked in the chart with an aster-isk (*). Maximum length can never be
more than 6,000 feet (1,829 m), regardless of gauge used.
