Full TrueAlert Operation. TrueAlert addressable notification appliances are individually addressed and receive power, supervision, and control signals over the SLC. Horns sound with selectable high or low output, using a temporal, march time (60 or 120 beats per minute), or continuous pattern. Horns are controlled separately from visible appliances installed on the same two-wire circuit. (Combination speaker/strobe TrueAlert appliances receive audible control from separate audio circuit wiring.)
Extensive Diagnostic Capabilities. LEDs on the TPS flash codes that identify the nature of trouble conditions. The TPS also monitors for short and open circuits and positive and negative Earth fault status.
Depleted Battery Cutout (Canadian Version Only). When AC Power fails, the Depleted Battery Cutout feature disconnects a battery from the panel when its voltage is approximately 18 VDC.
Visual Synchronization. A maximum of 46 MultiCandela addressable visuals may be synchronized per SLC. All SLCs are synchronized across a TPS. All TPSs are synchronized across the FACP.

Conduit Entrance for Non-Power Limited Wiring
Adhere to these guidelines when wiring power limited and non-power limited wiring within the FACP.
Non-power limited field wiring (AC power, batteries) must be installed and routed in the shaded areas shown in the figure below.
Power-limited field wiring must be installed and routed in the non-shaded areas shown in the figure below.
Excess slack should be kept to a minimum inside the back box enclosure. The wiring should be neatly dressed and bundled together using the wire ties provided with the equipment. Anchor power-limited wiring to tie points, as shown in the figure below.
Tie the wiring located between bays to the internal wiring troughs, if applicable.
When powering remote units or switching power through relay contacts, power for these circuits must be provided by a power-limited power supply that is UL listed for fire-protective signaling use. A UL listed EOL relay must be used to supervise the auxiliary power circuit.
IMPORTANT: If the TPS is powered up with zero devices connected, the TPS
indicates channel failure for those channels that are programmed to support devices. The TPS does not sense devices as they are connected when the TPS has been powered up with zero devices connected. After at least one valid device is connected, the unit must be reset by toggling the DIP Switch SW1-1 OFF and then ON. The TPS then communicates with devices as they are added.

For Class B wiring with isolators, T-Tapping is allowed. SLC wiring may be split multiple times to form SLC wire branches. Maximum wire distance of each of these SLC branches from panel to any device is the smaller of the values obtained from Table 8 and the Equation 1 shown below. Add the alarm loads of all the devices on an SLC wire branch and apply to Equation 1. Add the unit loads (see Table 4 for unit loads) for all devices on an SLC wire branch and the number of isolators and apply to Table 8. Use of Table 8 requires that all SLC wire branches join within 10 feet (3 m) of the panel. T-tap wire stubs are allowed on the SLC wire branches, but each tap must be less than 100 feet (30 m). Equation 1: Maximum SLC Wire Branch Length Based on Appliance Alarm Current Load Feet = 10 + (2V – (2.5A * 10 * 2 * (res/ft) * 0.1(#isolators)(branch alarm amps)
Supervision must be provided if the auxiliary power circuit is to be wired as a power-limited circuit. In order to connect a circuit using power-limited wiring, the devices being powered must all be addressable, or a UL Listed EOL relay must be used to supervise the circuit.

The system trouble indicators consist of a bank of five yellow LEDS (refer back to Figure 1 for their location on the TPS). These LEDs are used to signal various trouble conditions on the TPS and its SLCs. Only one trouble at a time is shown. You can step through all of the troubles present on the TPS or its SLCs using the Trouble Scroll Pushbutton. This pushbutton is shown in Figure 1 and is located just to the right of LEDs A through E. Notes:
Any trouble indication that applies to a specific SLC channel has the corresponding LED (CH1 through CH3) for that channel lit.
The Trouble Scroll Pushbutton allows an operator to scroll through multiple troubles.
