Product Usage Instructions

Mounting

  1. Open the N-ANN-80 Series cover by turning the key switch counterclockwise to the ON position.
  2. Push in the snap latch tab on the right side while pulling the cover open.
  3. Pull the wire through the hole in the backplate and feed through the wire channel to the terminal block.
  4. Attach the cover to the backplate before mounting the annunciator to the electrical box/wall.

Wiring to FACP

Refer to Table 1 for wiring connections between the N-ANN-80 Series terminals and FACP ANN-BUS terminals. Ensure proper connections for power and signaling.

Setting the DIP Switches:

Use DIP switches 1-4 on S1 to set a unique address for each ANN-BUS device. The address will be displayed on the LCD display as the Station ID number. Follow the provided guidelines for setting the DIP switches.

FAQs

  • Q: How many devices can be connected to the FACP ANN-BUS communication circuit?

    • A : A maximum of 8 devices can be connected. Ensure each device has a unique address set using the DIP switches.
  • Q: What wire gauge is recommended for wiring the N-ANN-80 Series?

    • A : Use 12 – 22 AWG (0.33 – 3.31 mm2) wire for N-ANN-80(-W) connections. Make sure all connections are power-limited and supervised.

General

The N-ANN-80 Series Remote Fire Annunciators and Indicators (N-ANN-80, N-ANN-80-W, N-ANN-80C) are compact, backlit LCD displays designed for use with compatible FACPs (Fire Alarm Control Panels). The displays mimic the FACP display and are capable of displaying English-language text of system point status including device type, independent point alarm, trouble or supervisory zone and custom labels programmed into the FACP. Refer to the FACP manual installation section for detailed system information and wiring. The N-ANN-80C Indicator is intended for use as a replacement part only per ULC S527-99.

NOTE : Installation and wiring must be done in accordance with NFPA 72 and local wiring codes.

Dimensions

6.875”W x 5.375”H x 1.375”D (17.46cm x 13.65cm x 3.49cm)

Mounting

The N-ANN-80 Series plastic enclosures can be surface or semi-flush mounted in a single, double or 4” (10cm-sized) square electrical box.

To mount the N-ANN-80 Series enclosure:

  1. Open the N-ANN-80 Series cover by turning the key switch counterclockwise to the ON (Unlocked) position.
  2. Push in the snap latch tab located on the right side while pulling the cover open.
  3. Pull wire through a 7/8” (2.22cm) hole in the backplate and feed through the wire channel to the lower left corner of the backplate before routing to the terminal block (refer to appropriate FACP manual).
  4. The cover must remain attached to the backplate while mounting the annunciator to the electrical box/wall. The cover cannot be reattached or removed after the annunciator has been mounted.NOTIFIER-N-ANN-80-Series-Remote-Fire-Annunciators-and-Indicators-fig1
  5. If the cover should become detached from the backplate, reattach as shown below.
  6. Surface or Semi-flush mount the N-ANN-80 to a single, double or 4” (10cm-sized) square electrical box. The ANN-SB80KIT(-R/-B/- W) is an available kit that contains two plastic backboxes that can be used to surface mount the N-ANN-80 Series.

Notes for Figure 3 and Figure 4

  1. All connections/sources must be power-limited and supervised.
  2. 12 – 22 AWG (0.33 – 3.31 mm2) wire for N-ANN-80(-W) and 12- 18 AWG (0.75 – 3.25 mm2) for N-ANN-80C is acceptable for the 24 VDC circuit.
  3. Power wire distance limitation is set by a 1.2-volt maximum line drop from the source to the end of the circuit.
  4. Maximum distance from FACP to the last ANN-BUS device must not exceed 6,000 feet (1,800 m). Refer to the Wiring Distance Table in the appropriate FACP manual for wire gauge and distance limitations.

Setting the DIP Switches – N-ANN-80(-W)

  • Address Setting
    • Each ANN-BUS device requires a unique address. DIP switches 1-4 on S1 is used to set the address. This address will be displayed on the LCD display as the Station ID number.
    • A maximum of 8 devices can be connected to the FACP ANN-BUS communication circuit. ANN-BUS device addresses do not need to be sequential and can be set to any number between 01 and 08. Note that 00 is not a valid address. The following illustrates the DIP switch settings for each address (ID Number).

Communication Protocol

DIP switch 5 is used to determine the communication protocol of the NANN- 80 Series. Set DIP switch 5 to ON for ANN-BUS protocol. Set DIP switch 5 to OFF for AIO protocol.

End-of-Line Resistor

The end-of-line termination resistor must be enabled at S1 on the last device on the communication circuit. All other annunciators should have these switches set to disable.

DIP switches 7 and 8 are unused.

  • Setting the DIP Switches – N-ANN-80C
    • Each ANN-BUS device requires a unique address. DIP switch S21 on the N-ANN-80C is used to set the address. This address will be displayed on the LCD display as the Station ID number.
    • A maximum of 8 devices can be connected to the FACP ANN-BUS communication circuit. ANN-BUS device addresses do not need to be sequential and can be set to any number between 01 and 08. Note that 00 is not a valid address. The following illustrates the DIP switch settings for each address (ID Number):
