TrueAlert Addressable Notification Appliances
Ceiling Mount Addressable Speaker Visible (S/V) Notification Appliances**

Introduction

Ceiling mount addressable speaker visible (S/V) notification appliances
Use the Simplex fire alarm control unit (FACU) IDNAC signaling line circuit (SLC) to individually power, address, and control ceiling mount addressable S/V notification appliances. A separate compatible Simplex FACU audio NAC supplies audio. Electronic monitoring of wiring supervision means you can T-tap audio and IDNAC wiring for Class B wiring, reducing wiring costs and wiring distances.
Install ceiling mount addressable S/V notification appliances on a standard 4 in. (101.6 mm) square 2 1/8 in. (53.97 mm) deep electrical box, provided by others, for flush installations. Install on a surface or weatherproof backbox, see Table 8 for surface or weatherproof (WP) installations.
Appliances are available in 400 Hz to 4000 Hz and 200 Hz to 10000 Hz high fidelity models. Select the appliance and cover it separately to simplify the ordering and installation process. Model numbers ending in –BA are assembled in the USA. For more information, refer to datasheet S49SWC-0001.

Table 15: IDNAC SLC specifications

Application
Appliance voltage design reference| 23 VDC (with 6 VDC drop)
Supervisory requirements| 1 unit load (= 0.8 mA control unit current)
Flash rate and synchronized SLC loading| 1 Hz; with up to 63 synchronized strobes maximum for each powered circuit, max 127 S/V appliances for each IDNAC channel
IDC SLC loading| Maximum of 127 addresses for each SLC, 139 unit loads. See device and compatible fire control unit installation instructions for circuit current load limits.
IDC SLC wiring specifications refer to the control unit installation instructions for more information| UTP, unshielded twisted pair recommended
Maximum wire length allowed with T-taps for Class B wiring for each SLC = 10,000 ft (3048 m)
Maximum wire length to any appliance = 4000 ft (1219 m). This can be doubled to 8000 ft (2438 m) by using a 4009 IDNAC Repeater.
