1.1 General
The FCPS-24S power supplies can be used as remotely mounted power supplies and battery
chargers to power four noncoded or coded NACs. The Main FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel)
NAC(s) is connected to the remote power supply input circuit(s). When the control input circuit
activates due to reverse polarity of the NAC from the FACP, the power supply will activate its
Notification Appliance Circuits.
During the inactive or nonalarm state, the power supply supervises its NAC field wiring for short
and open conditions. AC fail, battery, charger and ground fault troubles will also be monitored by
the power supply. If an NAC or power supply fault is detected, the power supply Normally-Closed
Trouble contact will open.
If an alarm condition occurs and the NAC is activated, the supervision is disabled and the
Notification Appliance Circuit is no longer supervised. Supervision of other power supply faults
such as low battery, AC loss, ground fault and battery charger trouble will continue and may be
monitored via the Trouble relay contacts.

1.7 General
The FCPS may be used in a number of different applications. It may be used as a
remotely-mounted power supply and battery charger where it can provide up to four
coded or noncoded, synchronized or nonsynchronized NACs (Notification Appliance
Circuits). Alternatively, output #4 can be used as a door holder circuit which will
provide a steady 24 VDC output until an alarm condition or AC fail condition causes it
to drop to 0 VDC following a 60 second delay. All four outputs can also provide
power.

SECTION 2 Installation
Carefully unpack the system and check for shipping damage. Select a location for the
cabinet that is in a clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temperatures are not
encountered. The area should be readily accessible with sufficient room to easily
install and maintain the power supply. Locate the top of the cabinet approximately five
feet above the floor with the hinge mounting on the left. Determine the number of
conductors required for the devices to be installed and determine the appropriate
knockouts. All wiring must be in accordance with the National and/or Local codes for
fire alarm systems and power supplies.

SECTION 5 Applications
5.1 Controlling Four NACs With One Input and Selective Silence
In this application, the power supply has been set as a master with synchronized outputs
and selective silence (see SW1 switch settings in following illustration). All four
FCPS-24S output circuits, which are shown as NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits),
can be controlled from one input such as an addressable control module as illustrated in
Figure 5.1. The control module can be powered from the FCPS-24S auxiliary 24 VDC
power output (TB4, Terminals 9 & 10) and supervised by an EOL relay. An
addressable relay module, programmed as an alarm output and a silenceable point, can
be used as a selective silence input.
The control module is shown to demonstrate the use of a remotely mounted device
associated with an addressable fire alarm control panel. The module could be replaced
with any circuit capable of polarity reversal, such as an FACP NAC.

In this application, the power supply has been set as a master with synchronized

The control module is shown to demonstrate the use of a remotely mounted device

Note: The following notes apply to this illustration
1. Refer to NFPA 72, Chapter 4-4, Visible Characteristics, Public Mode.
2. Use only devices from the same manufacturer in each system.
6.1 Overview
This section contains instructions and tables for calculating power supply currents in alarm and
standby conditions. This is a four-step process, consisting of the following:
1. Calculating the total amount of AC branch circuit current required to operate the system
2. Calculating the power supply load current for non-fire and fire alarm conditions and
calculating the secondary (battery) load
3. Calculating the size of batteries required to support the system if an AC power loss occurs
4. Selecting the proper batteries for your system
Use Table 6.1 to determine the total amount of current, in AC amperes, that must be supplied to the
system
[ ] [ ] X [ ] =
[ ] [ ] X [ ] =
Following are the types of current that can be entered into Table 6.3 on page 39
Calculation Column 1 - The primary supply current load that the power supply must
support during a non-fire alarm condition, with AC power applied
Calculation Column 2 - The primary supply current load the power supply must support
during a fire alarm condition, with AC power applied
Calculation Column 3 - The standby current drawn from the batteries in a non-fire alarm
condition during a loss of AC power
Table 6.3 contains three columns for calculating current draws. For each column, calculate the
current and enter the total (in amperes) in the bottom row. When finished, copy the totals from
Calculation Column 2 and Calculation Column 3 to Table 6.4 on page 40.
Qty X (current draw) = Total Qty X (current draw) Total Qty X (current draw) = Total
