screw-type terminals with each conductor and terminal marked for
identification.
2.1.3
System Expansion and Modification Capabilities
Any equipment and software needed by qualified technicians to implement
future changes to the fire alarm system shall be provided as part of this
contract.
2.1.4
Addressable Control Module
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Remove this paragraph when not required.
**************************************************************************
The control module shall be capable of operating as a relay (dry contact
form C) for interfacing the control panel with other systems, and to
control door holders or initiate elevator fire service. The module shall
be UL listed as compatible with the control panel. The indicating device
or the external load being controlled shall be configured as a Style Y
notification appliance circuits. The system shall be capable of
supervising, audible, visual and dry contact circuits. The control module
shall have both an input and output address. The supervision shall detect
a short on the supervised circuit and shall prevent power from being
applied to the circuit. The control model shall provide address setting
means compatible with the control panel's SLC supervision and store an
internal identifying code. The control module shall contain an integral
LED that flashes each time the control module is polled. [Existing fire
alarm system notification appliance circuits shall be connected to a single
module to power and supervise the circuit.]
2.1.5
Addressable Initiating Device Circuits Module
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Remove this paragraph when not required.
**************************************************************************
The initiating device being monitored shall be configured as a [Style D]
[Style B] initiating device circuits. The system shell be capable of
defining any module as an alarm module and report alarm trouble, loss of
polling, or as a supervisory module, and reporting supervisory short,
supervisory open or loss of polling. The module shall be UL listed as
compatible with the control panel. The monitor module shall provide
address setting means compatible with the control panel's SLC supervision
and store an internal identifying code. Monitor module shall contain an
integral LED that flashes each time the monitor module is polled. Pull
stations with a monitor module in a common backbox are not required to have
an LED. [Existing fire alarm system initiating device circuits shall be
connected to a single module to power and supervise the circuit.]
2.2
STORAGE BATTERIES
**************************************************************************
NOTE: The fire alarm system may interface with
auxiliary systems or subsystems; ensure that
adequate battery backup is available, if the fire
alarm system provides the power.
