Issue 3.1 Vigilant Catalog u Mid-Sized Systems 12 - 0 2 - 1 4 VM Series Life Safety Control System Description VM Series represents the latest generation of life safety control panels for mid to large sized applications. With large multi-mes- sage displays, intuitive interfaces, and stylish contoured cabinets — these systems capture the imagination, and catch the eye. But behind the LCD display is where they really shine. New TCP/IP-enabled microprocessors and chipsets take full ad- vantage of the latest advances in computing technology, leading to smarter, faster, higher-capacity processing and more efficient designs. VM Series’s patented Voltage Boost™ technology, for ex- ample, delivers constant voltage on NAC and AUX circuits – even at low battery power – resulting in lighter cable requirements and/ or longer runs. That saves time and money. High performance processing also leads to powerful networking features and versatile digital audio functionality. In fact, VM Series can handle jobs that range from a single stand-alone control panel, to a sophisticated network comprising as many as 24 con- trol panels processing data from up to 24,000 devices. High quality voice evacuation also delivers system design flexibil- ity with scalable implementation from simple Place-of-Assembly capability right up to multi-channel operation for highrise and cam- pus applications. VM Series features three channels of integrated digital audio. Its optional paging control center includes a high quality paging microphone to which can be added a firefighters’ telephone. VM Series makes all this new technology readily accessible with easy installation and maintenance. Electronic addressing means devices virtually install themselves, while intuitive installation and detailed diagnostic tools offer a clear and rapid path to flawless system operation. Standard Features • One Class A or Class B intelligent device loop standard, op- tional loops brings control panel capacity to 1000 devices • 24-line by 40-character backlit LCD capable of displaying eight simultaneous events • Optional voice evacuation and firefighter’s telephone • Three Form C relays: alarm, trouble and supervisory • Optional network interface slots are located on the back of a swingable mounting chassis • Electronic addressing with automatic device mapping • Optional Ethernet port for diagnostics, programming • Supports strobe synchronization • Supports up to 30 R-Series remote annunciators with either Class A or Class B wiring • Networkable up to twenty four VM control panels monitoring 24,000 intelligent points • Patented Voltage Boost™ technology delivers constant voltage on NAC and AUX circuits — even at low battery power. • 10 Amp UL listed power supply with universal 94 to 264 Vac input voltage • Integrated Carbon Monoxide gas sensing with V-PCOS detec- tors including distinct audible signaling • Four on-board Notification Appliance Circuits • Room for three optional front panel LED/Switch modules • Optional Ethernet interface • UL2572; UL864 UUKL; UL 864 Listed for releasing applications using GSA-REL • Removable terminals on all low voltage wiring • Optional earthquake hardening: seismic Importance Factor 1.5 7165-1657: 309 S3000 S3000 APPROVED Page 2 of 8 DATA SHEET M85005-0133 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 3.1 Application Application flexibility is where VM’s leading edge computing power is put to best use. This generation of control panels is equally at home as the center of a simple single-building standalone system as it is when part of a sophisticated life safety network serving thousands of points across multiple buildings. Optional voice evacuation bridges the gap left by other mid-range systems, and makes these panels a cost-effective solution for most applications. Efficient, cost-effective networking Networking is among VM Series’s strong suits. A simple VM Series network can comprise up to eight control panels – enough to serve the needs of most campuses and larger buildings. Highly ef- ficient RS485 connectivity, plus fiber-optic communications deliver faster response times and more sophisticated diagnostic capabili- ties, while cost-effective remote annunciation solutions keep basic monitoring and control always within reach. Audio that speaks for itself An optional paging microphone provides local, as well as remote, audio functions. VM Series features three channels of inte- grated digital audio with up to two minutes of on-board programmable message storage. An optional paging control center includes a high quality paging microphone to which can be added a firefighters’ telephone. Auxiliary inputs are available for mass notification operations and connection to external systems. Versatility built right in The VM control panel has room for three fully-programmable front panel switch/LED strips. Each strip includes 12 switches with two associated LEDs (one quad-color, and one yellow), and a custom label area. LED color designations are assigned by the installer. Perfect for retrofits VM Series is particularly well-suited to retrofit applications. All connections are made over standard wiring – no shielded cable required. This means that in most situations existing wiring can be used to upgrade a legacy control panel to VM Series technology without the expense or disruption of rewiring the entire building. Clear-cut remote annunciation Up to 30 R-Series annunciators may be configured for each panel on the VM Series network. Up to 30 R-Series LCD, LED annuncia- tors and driver interface cards may be configured for each control panel on the VM Series network. Compatible annunciators include a range of LED and LCD models that provide zone or point annunciation, as well as common control capabilities. VM Series also sup- ports graphic annunciation with optional graphic snnunciator interface modules. Each interface provides common control, indicators, and 32 LEDS. Expansion units pro- vide 48 led outputs. Power that goes the distance Edwards’ patented Voltage Boost™ technology delivers constant 22.5 Vdc on NAC and AUX circuits – even at low battery power. This means lighter gauge cable can be used for equivalent distanc- es compared with conventional power supplies, or longer wire runs on the same gauge cable. Either way, this breakthrough technology saves time and equipment costs, making VM Series not only a high- performance solution — but a cost-effective one as well. 1 ACK/PanelSilence AlarmSilence Reset Drill Details Power Test GroundFault Monitor ServiceDetector Supervisory Alarm Trouble Disable CPU Fail 1 4 7 2 5 8 3 6 9 0 ABC JKL TUV DEF MNO WXYZ GHI PQRS VMSERIES 2 3 4 5 6 79 12 11 10 8 14 17 13 15 16 18 1 Alarm LED Flashing indicates new alarm events.

Issue 2 Vigilant Catalog u Annunciation 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Overview Edwards R-Series Annunciators are high-performance remote annunciators that provide status indication and common controls for compatible fire alarm control panels, including iO-Series small analog fire alarm systems. This family of annunciators offers LCD or LED annunciation. Models are available with and without com- mon controls. There are three R-Series annunciator models, plus an LED-based expander. Up to two expanders can be connected to any annun- ciator. The expander includes 24 pairs of LEDs that extend the capabilities of any of the annunciators. All annunciator models include status LEDs and an internal buzzer. Two models have an LCD text display, and one has 16 pairs of LEDs for zone annunciation. LCD models feature a large back-lit, four by twenty character per line, super-twist liquid crystal display. R-Series annunciators and expanders are mounted on a standard 4-inch square electrical box, using the included mounting ring. They can also be surface mounted in locking steel enclosures. Three different enclosures are available. A keyswitch and graphic annunciator interface is available for R-Series annunciator applications. The keyswitch enables or dis- ables common controls. The graphic annunicator interface cards supports 32 LEDs and 16 switches on the graphic panel display.

Issue 5 Vigilant Catalog u Power Supplies and Accessories 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Remote Booster Power Supplies MIRBPS6A, MIRBPS10A Overview The Booster Power Supply (MIRBPS) is a UL 864, 9th Edition list- ed power supply. It is a 24 Vdc filtered-regulated, and supervised unit that can easily be configured to provide additional notification appliance circuits (NACs) or auxiliary power for Mass Notification/ Emergency Communication (MNEC), as well as life safety, security, and access control applications. The MIRBPS contains the circuitry to monitor and charge internal or external batteries. Its steel enclosure has room for up to two 10 ampere-hour batteries. For access control-only applications, the MIRBPS can support batteries totaling up to 65 ampere-hours in an external enclosure. The MIRBPS has four Class B (convert- ible to two Class A) NACs. These can be activated in one or two groups from the MIRBPS’s unique dual input circuits. The MIRBPS is available in 6.5 or 10 ampere models. Each output circuit has a capacity of three amperes; total current draw cannot exceed the unit’s rating. The MIRBPS meets current UL requirements and is listed under the following standards: Standard (CCN)Description UL864 9th ed.ition (UOXX)Fire Alarm Systems UL636 (ANET, UEHX7)Holdup Alarm Units and Systems UL609 (AOTX, AOTX7)Local Burglar Alarm Units and Systems UL294 (ALVY, UEHX7)Access Control Systems UL365 (APAW, APAW7)Police Station Connected Burglar Alarm Units and Systems UL1076 (APOU, APOU7)Proprietary Burglar Alarm System Units UL1610 (AMCX)Central Station Alarm Unit ULC-S527 (UOXXC)Control Units, Fire Alarm (Canada) ULC-S303 (AOTX7)Local Burglar Alarm Units and Systems (Canada) C22.2 No. 205 Signaling Equipment (Canada) Standard Features • Allows for reliable filtered and regulated power to be installed where needed • Cost effective system expansion • Provides for Genesis and Enhanced Integrity notification ap- pliance synchronization • Supports coded output operation • Self-restoring overcurrent protection • Multiple signal rates • Can be cascaded or controlled independently • Easy field configuration • On-board diagnostic LEDs identify wiring or internal faults • Standard Edwards keyed lockable steel cabinet with remov- able door • 110 and 230 Vac models available • Accommodates 18 to 12 AWG wire sizes • Optional tamper switch • Dual battery charging rates • Optional earthquake hardening: OSHPD seismic pre-approval for component Importance Factor 1.5 MEA 476-91-E Vol.13 7300-1483: 0174 S3424 Page 2 of 4 DATA SHEET M85005-0125 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 5 Application The MIRBPS provides additional power and circuits for notification appliances and other 24 Vdc loads. It is listed for indoor dry loca- tions and can easily be installed where needed. Fault conditions are indicated on the on-board diagnostic LEDs, opening the MIRBPS input sense circuit and the trouble relay (if programmed). While this provides indication to the host system, the MIRBPS can still be activated upon command. A separate AC Fail contact is available on the MIRBPS circuit board, which can be programmed for trouble or AC Fail. There are seven on-board diagnostic LEDs: one for each NAC fault, one for battery fault, one for ground fault, and one for AC power. The unique dual-input activation circuits of the MIRBPS can be activated by any voltage from 6 to 45 VDC (filtered-regulated) or 11 to 33 Vdc (full-wave rectified, unfiltered). The first input circuit can be configured to activate 1-4 of the four possible outputs. The second input circuit can be configured to control circuits 3 and 4. When outputs are configured for auxiliary operation, these circuits can be configured to stay on or automatically deactivate 30 sec- onds after AC power is lost. This feature makes these circuits ideal for door holder applications. The MIRBPS also has a separate 200 mA 24 Vdc output that can be used to power internal activation modules. MIRBPS NACs can be configured for a 3-3-3 temporal or continu- ous output. California temporal rate outputs are also available on certain models. This makes the MIRBPS ideal for applications re- quiring signaling rates that are not available from the main system. In addition to the internally generated signal rates, the MIRBPS can also be configured to follow the coded signal rate of the main system NACs. This allows for the seamless expansion of existing NACs. The MIRBPS enclosure has mounting brackets for up to three Signature modules to the right of the circuit board. Engineering Specification Supply, where needed, Edwards MIRBPS Series Booster Power Supplies (MIRBPS) that are interconnected to and supervised by the main system. The MIRBPS shall function as a stand-alone auxiliary power supply with its own fully-supervised battery compli- ment. The MIRBPS battery compliment shall be sized to match the requirements of the main system. The MIRBPS shall be ca- pable of supervising and charging batteries having the capacity of 24 ampere-hours for Mass Notification/Emergency Communica- tion (MNEC), life safety and security applications, and the capacity of 65 ampere-hours for access control applications. <<The MIRBPS shall be capable of installation for a seismic com- ponent Importance Factor of 1.5.>> The MIRBPS shall provide a minimum of four independent, fully supervised Class B circuits that can be field configurable for notification appliance circuits or auxiliary 24 Vdc power circuits. MIRBPS NACs shall be convertible to a minimum of two Class A NACs. Each MIRBPS output circuit shall be rated at 3 amperes at 24 Vdc. Each output circuit shall be provided with automatically restoring overcurrent protection. The MIRBPS shall be operable from the main system NAC and/ or Edwards Signature Series control modules. MIRBPS NACs shall be configurable for continuous, 3-3-3 temporal or optionally, California rate. Fault conditions on the MIRBPS shall not impede operation of main system NAC. The MIRBPS shall be provided with ground fault detection circuitry and a separate AC fail relay.

The twist-and-lock design makes short work of installation and main- tenance opera tions. A plastic breakout on the detector housing optionally pre vents removal from the base except with a special tool. A bright, easy-to-see LED flashes red when the detector is in alarm, thus eliminating much of the guesswork when responding to front-panel indications. • The V-HFD is fixed-temperature heat detector with an alarm threshold of 135° F (57° C). • The V-HRD is a rate-of-rise heat detector calibrated for 15°F (8°C) per minute. • The V-PHS houses an optical sensing chamber that detects smoke, as well as a fixed-temperature sensor that detects heat. The detector analyzes data from both sensors to deter- mine when an alarm is initiated. • The V-PS houses an optical sensing chamber that detects smoke. All detectors feature comprehensive self-diagnostic capability. V-PS and V-PHS optical detectors continuously adjust their sen- sitivity to compensate for changes in the environment such as the presence of dirt, smoke, temperature, and humidity. These detec- tors issue a dirty sensor warning when they reach their preset limit.

Issue 2 Heat Detectors The V-Series heat detectors are capable of performing compre- hensive self-diagnostics and storing the results. Thanks to advanced thermistor technology, V-Series heat detectors are ideal for sensing fast, flaming fires and for applications where smoke detection is inappropriate. They are particularly well-suited to areas such as kitchens and shower rooms, where the ambient temperature is relatively constant, but where steam and smoke are present. V-HRD Rate-of-Rise Heat Detector provides a 15°F (8°C) per minute rate-of-rise heat sensor for the detection of heat due to fire. The heat sensor monitors the temperature of the air and deter- mines whether an alarm should be initiated. V-HFD Fixed Temperature Heat Detector provides a 135°F (57°C) fixed-temperature heat sensor for the detection of heat due to fire. The heat sensor monitors the temperature of the air and deter- mines whether an alarm should be initiated. Optical and combination detectors V-Series optical detectors continuously adjust their sensitivity based on fluctuating environmental conditions such as the pres- ence of dirt, smoke, humidity, or changes in temperature, and notifies the panel of any changes in sensor sensitivity. When the detector has adjusted its sensitivity to its maximum limit, it issues a dirty sensor warning, allowing enough of a margin for maintenance personnel to clean the detector before it goes into trouble condi- tion. These detectors perform comprehensive self-diagnostics and store these details in their on-board memory. V-PHS Optical/Fixed Temperature Detector houses an optical sensing chamber that detects smoke, as well as a fixed-temper- ature sensor that detects heat. The detector analyzes data from both sensors to determine when an alarm is initiated. This com- bines the suitability of optical sensing for slow burning fires with the sensitivity of fixed-temperature detection for fast flaming fires to arrive at a solution that responds reliably to the widest range of fire types. A sophisticated algorithm processes data from both sensors over time so that an alarm is only reported when conditions precisely match the signature of a fire. This eliminates the shortcomings of single-sensor optical and heat detection, and significantly reduces the risk of nuisance alarms. V-PS Optical Smoke Detector uses an optical sensing chamber to detect smoke. The detector analyzes data gathered by the sen- sor to determine when an alarm is initiated. Thanks to its high-performance optical sensing chamber, the V-PS responds quickly and reliably to a wide range of fire types, espe- cially slow burn ing fires fuelled by combustibles typically found in modern multi-use buildings. The V-PS detects extremely small particles and triggers an alarm at the first sign of smoke.

The base can operate as an independent local alarm, or as part of a zone or system alarm with synchronized audible output. Depending on the system supporting the device loop, the base can operate as follows: • It can follow the state of the device it supports • It can be controlled and configured for other operating modes through programming. The SB4U is field-configurable for output tone (steady or temporal) and output volume (low dBA or high dBA). The base must be con- nected to a continuous voltage whether the output tone is set to steady or temporal. The base does not require a separate address because it shares the address of the device it is connected to. 4 SLC + SLC + AUX_RISER + AUX_RISER + SLC - SLC - AUX_RISER - AUX_RISER - 1.

Issue 2 Intelligent Combination Smoke/CO Detector V-PCOS, V-PCOS-CA Description Vigilant brand V-PCOS photoelectric detectors bring advanced sensing technology to a practical design that increases efficiency, saves installation time, cuts costs, and extends life safety and property protection capabilities. Continuous self-diagnostics en- sure reliability over the long-haul, while innovative field-replacable smoke chambers make detector maintenance literally a snap. With its on-board CO sensor, this detector pulls double-duty — con- tinually monitoring the environment for signs of smoke, as well as its invisible yet deadly companion, carbon monoxide. The V-PCOS is an intelligent device that gathers analog informa- tion from its smoke and CO sensor (if present), converting this data into digital signals. To make an alarm decision, the detector’s on-board microprocessor measures and analyzes sensor read- ings and compares this information to historical data. Digital filters remove signal patterns that are not typical of fires, thus virtually eliminating unwanted alarms. The V-PCOS includes an advanced carbon monoxide sensor and daughterboard. When the electrochemical cell reaches its end of life after approximately six years, the detector signals a trouble condition to the control panel. The sensor/daughterboard module is field-replaceable. Standard Features • Optical smoke sensing technology with carbon monoxide sensor • Field-replacable smoke chamber • Field-replacable carbon monoxide sensor/ daughterboard module • Uses existing wiring • Automatic device mapping • Two levels of environmental compensation • Two levels of dirty detector warning • Twenty pre-alarm settings • Five sensitivity settings • Non-volatile memory • Electronic addressing • Environmental compensation • Identification of dirty or defective detectors • Identification of CO sensors approaching end of life • Automatic day/night sensitivity adjustment • Bicolor (green/red) status LED • Standard, relay, fault isolator, and audible mounting bases Page 2 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0619 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 2 Application Smoke detection The V-PCOS detects extremely small particles of combustion and triggers an alarm at the first sign of smoke. Thanks to its high- performance forward scattering reflective response technology, the photoelectric smoke sensor responds quickly and reliably to a wide range of fire types, espe cially slow burning fires fuelled by combustibles typically found in modern multi-use buildings. Carbon monoxide detection CO detection has rapidly become a standard part of life safety strategies everywhere. Monitored CO detection is becoming mandated with increasing frequency in all types of commercial applications, but particularly in occupancies such as hotels, room- ing houses, dormitories, day care facilities, schools, hospitals, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes. In fact, more than half of the U.S. population already lives in states requiring the instal- lation of CO detectors in some commercial occupancies. This is because carbon monoxide is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America. Known as the “Silent Killer,” CO is odorless, tasteless, and colorless. It claims nearly 500 lives, and results in more than 15,000 hospital visits annually. Installation The V-PCOS mounts to North American 1-gang boxes, 3-1/2 inch or 4 inch octagon boxes, and to 4 inch square electrical boxes 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) deep. They also mount to European BESA and 1-gang boxes with 60.3 mm fixing centers. See mounting base installation and wiring for more information. Testing & Maintenance Each detector automatically identifies when it is dirty or defective and causes a “dirty detector” message. The detector’s sensitiv- ity measurement can also be transmitted to the loop controller. A sensitivity report can be printed to satisfy NFPA sensitivity mea- surements which must be conducted at the end of the first year and every two years thereafter. The user-friendly maintenance program shows the current state of each detector and other pertinent messages. Single detectors may be turned off temporarily from the control panel. Availability of maintenance features is dependent on the fire alarm system used. When the CO sensor’s electrochemical cell reaches its end of life, the detector signals a trouble condition to the control panel. The sensor/daughterboard module is field-replaceable. Scheduled maintenance (Regular or Selected) for proper detector operation should be planned to meet the requirements of the Authority Hav- ing Jurisdiction (AHJ). Refer to current NFPA 72, NFPA 720, and ULC CAN/ULC 536 standards. This detector will NOT sense fires that start in areas where smoke cannot reach the detector. Smoke from fires in walls, roofs, or on the opposite side of closed doors may not reach the detector to alarm it. Sensing and reporting technology The microprocessor in each detector provides four additional ben- efits - Self-diagnostics and History Log, Automatic Device Map- ping, Stand-alone Operation and Fast, Stable Communication. Self-diagnostics and History Log - The V-PCOS constantly runs self-checks to provide important maintenance information. The results are automatically updated and permanently stored in the detector’s non-volatile memory. Automatic Device Mapping - The loop controller learns where each device’s serial number address is installed relative to other devices on the circuit. The mapping feature provides supervision of each device’s installed location to prevent a detector from being reinstalled (after cleaning etc.) in a different location from where it was originally. Fast Stable Communication - On-board intelligence means less information needs to be sent between the detector and the loop controller. Other than regular supervisory polling response, the detector only needs to communicate with the loop controller when it has something new to report. Accessories Detector mounting bases have wiring terminals that are acces- sible from the “room-side” after mounting the base to the electrical box. The bases mount to North American 1-gang boxes and to 3½ inch or 4 inch octagon boxes, 1½ inches (38 mm) deep. They also mount to European BESA and 1-gang boxes with 60.3 mm fixing centers. The GSA-SB4, GSA-RB4, and GSA-IB4 mount to North American 4 inch sq. electrical boxes in addition to the above boxes. They include the GSA-TS4 Trim Skirt which is used to cover the “mounting ears” on the base. The GSA-SBT bases mounts to 4 inch sq. boxes only. GSA-IB Isolator Base GSA-LED Remote LEDGSA-RB Relay BaseGSA-SB Standard BaseGSA-SBT Audible Base Remote LED GSA-LED - The remote LED connects to the GSA-SB or GSA-SB4 Standard Base only. It features a North American size 1-gang plastic faceplate with a white finish and red alarm LED. GSA-TS4 Trim Skirt - Supplied with 4 inch bases, it can also be ordered separately to use with the other bases to help hide surface imperfections not covered by the smaller bases. GSA-SBT - This sounder base is designed for use where local- ized or group alarm signaling is required. When used with the GSA-T3T4 Temporal Pattern Generator module, it adds an audible output function to the V-PCOS detector. Page 3 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0619 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 2 Typical Wiring The detector mounting bases accept #18 AWG (0.75mm2), #16 (1.0mm2), #14 AWG (1.5mm2), and #12 AWG (2.5mm²) wire sizes. Note: Sizes #16 AWG (1.0mm2) and #18 AWG (0.75mm2) are preferred for ease of installation. See the control panel reference manual for detailed wiring requirement specifications.

Issue 1.1 Sounder base for CO and fire detectors GSA-SBT, GSA-T3T4 Description The GSA-SBT Fire/CO sounder base, which requires the use of a GSA-T3T4 Temporal Pattern Generator, adds an audible output function to the V-PCOS intelligent combination fire/CO detector. The GSA-T3T4 requires VS series control panel V2.2 or higher. It uses the same address and programming label as the detector it supports. The GSA-SBT sounder base is field-configurable for output vol- ume (low or high dBA). By default, the GSA-SBT sounder base is set for high dBA. GSA-SBT sounder bases on the same circuit may be activated through programming or as a group or zone with the use of a GSA-CRR polarity reversal module. Additionally, the fire/CO sounder base can simply operate according to the state of its detector, or it can be configured through system programming to operate in conjuction with all sounder bases on the same circuit, or it can be controlled by program rules. The base generates a loud piercing tone that has excellent wall penetration qualities. It uses the same tone generator found in the award-winning Genesis line of wall and ceiling horns. Standard Features • Compatible with CO and smoke detectors Approved audible output facilitated by the GSA-T3T4 Temporal Pattern Generator module. • High or low dB output Jumper selects low or high dBA output. • Single or group operation Optional programming and polarity reversing module configures base for group alarm output. • UL268, UL464, and UL2075 listed UL listing under smoke detector, CO detector, and audible signal standards allows application as smoke alarm, CO alarm and/or audible signal. • Attractive installation Flush mount to a wide selection of North American boxes or surface mount to optional custom-matched box. GSA-SBT GSA-T3T4 Page 2 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0623 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 1.1 Application The GSA-SBT sounder base is for use with V-PCOS detectors in applications where localized or group alarm signaling is required. The base uses the same address and programming label as the detector it supports. The base is listed by Underwriters Laboratories under the UL268, UL464, and UL2075 standards, allowing its application where smoke alarms, CO alarms, and/or notification appliances are required. This makes the GSA-SBT ideal for hotels, dormitories, and other residential occupancies where supplementary audible output is required to meet required sound levels for sleeping areas or areas subject to high levels of ambient noise. CO Applications When a GSA-SBT gets a signal from its detector to activate, there is a delay so the sounder doesn’t immediately go in steady tone. When it detects pulses on the coded riser, it activates the sounder. If there are no pulses, the GSA-SBT just sounds steady after the short delay expires. Depending on the type of alarm, the panel can select the cor- responding pattern and send the activation command to the GSA-T3T4.

Issue 8 Vigilant Catalog u Intelligent Initiating 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 GSA-M278 Overview The GSA-M270 and GSA-M278 series Manual Pull Stations are part of Vigilant’s Signature Series system. The GSA-M270 Fire Alarm Manual Pull Stations feature our very familiar teardrop shape. They are made from die-cast zinc and finished with red epoxy powder-coat paint complemented by aluminum colored stripes and markings. With positive pull-lever operation, one pull on the station handle breaks the glass rod and turns in a posi- tive alarm, ensuring protection plus fool-proof operation. Presignal models (GSA-M270P) are equipped with a general alarm (GA) keyswitch for applications where two stage operation is required. The up-front highly visible glass rod discourages tampering, but is not required for proper operation. Vigilant’s double action single stage GSA-M278 station is a con- temporary style manual station made from durable red colored lexan. To initiate an alarm, first lift the upper door marked “LIFT THEN PULL HANDLE”, then pull the alarm handle. Standard Features Note: Some features described here may not be supported by all control sys- tems. Check your control panel’s Installation and Operation Guide for details. • Traditional familiar appearance GSA-M270 models feature our familiar teardrop design with simple positive pull action and sturdy die-cast metal body. • One stage (GA), two stage (pre-signal), and double action models GSA-M270 models are available for one or two stage alarm systems. The single stage double action GSA-M278 features a rugged Lexan housing with keyed reset mechanism. • Break glass operation An up-front visible glass rod on the GSA-M270 discourages tampering. • Intelligent device with integral microprocessor All decisions are made at the station allowing lower com- munication speed while substantially improving control panel response time. Less sensitive to line noise and loop wiring properties; twisted or shielded wire is not required. • ADA Compliant Meets ADA requirements for manual pull stations. • Electronic Addressing with Non-volatile memory Permanently stores programmable address, serial number, type of device, and job number. Automatically updates historic information including hours of operation, last maintenance date, number of alarms and troubles, and time and date of last alarm. • Automatic device mapping Each station transmits wiring information to the loop control- ler regarding its location with respect to other devices on the circuit. • Stand-alone operation The station inputs an alarm even if the loop controller’s polling interrogation stops. • Diagnostic LEDs Status LEDs; flashing GREEN shows normal polling; flashing RED shows alarm state. • Designed for high ambient temperature operation Install in ambient temperatures up to 120 °F (49 °C).

NORMALLY- OPEN ALARM - LATCHING (Pesonality Code 1) is assigned by the factory; no user configuration is required. The device is configured for Class B IDC operation. An ALARM signal is sent to the loop controller when the station’s pull lever is operated. The alarm con- dition is latched at the station. Compatibility Signature Series manual stations are compatible only with Vigi- lant’s Signature Loop Controller. Warnings & Cautions This device will not operate without electrical power. As fires fre- quently cause power interruption, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your local fire protection specialist. Testing & Maintenance To test (or reset) the station simply open the station and operate the exposed switch. The GSA-M270 series are opened with a tool; the GSA-M278 requires the key which is supplied with that station. The station’s automatic self-diagnosis identifies when it is defec- tive and causes a trouble message. The user-friendly maintenance program shows the current state of each Signature series device and other pertinent messages. Single devices may be deactivated temporarily, from the control panel. Availability of maintenance features is dependent on the fire alarm system used. Scheduled maintenance (Regular or Selected) for proper system operation should be planned to meet the requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Refer to current NFPA 72 and ULC CAN/ULC 536 standards. Wiring Notes 1 Refer to Signature Loop Controller manual for maximum wire distance. 2. All wiring is power limited and supervised. Typical Wiring The fire alarm station’s terminal block accepts #18 AWG (0.75mm2) to #12 AWG (2.5mm2) wire sizes. See Signature Loop Controller catalog sheet for detailed wiring requirement specifications. Page 3 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0279 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 8 Figure 2.

Issue 8 Vigilant Catalog u Intelligent Input-Output 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Overview The GSA-CT1 Single Input Module, GSA-CT1HT High Tempera- ture Single Input Module and GSA-CT2/GSA-MCT2 Dual Input Modules are intelligent analog addressable devices used to con- nect one or two Class B normally-open Alarm, Supervisory, or Monitor type dry contact Initiating Device Circuits (IDC). The actual function of these modules is determined by the “personal- ity code” selected by the installer. This code is downloaded to the module from the Signature loop controller during system configura- tion. The input modules gather analog information from the initiating devices connected to them and convert it into digital signals. The module’s on-board microprocessor analyzes the signal and decides whether or not to input an alarm. The GSA-CT1, GSA-CT1HT and GSA-CT2 mount to standard North American 1-gang electrical boxes, making them ideal for lo- cations where only one module is required. Separate I/O and data loop connections are made to each module. The GSA-CT1HT module operates at an expanded temperature range of 32 ºF to 158 ºF (0 ºC to 70 ºC) for those applications requiring more extreme environmental temperature variation. The GSA-MCT2 is part of the UIO family of plug-in Signature Series modules. It functions identically to the GSA-CT2, but takes advantage of the modular flexibility and easy installation that characterizes all UIO modules. Two- and six-module UIO mother- boards are available. All wiring connections are made to terminal blocks on the motherboard. UIO assemblies may be mounted in Edwards enclosures. Standard Features • Multiple applications Including Alarm, Alarm with delayed latching (retard) for water- flow applications, Supervisory, and Monitor. The installer selects one of four “personality codes” to be downloaded to the mod- ule through the loop controller. • GSA-CT1HT rated for high temperature environments Suitable for attic installation and monitoring high temperature heat detectors. • Plug-in (UIO) or standard 1-gang mount UIO versions allow quick installation where multiple modules are required. The 1-gang mount version is ideal for remote loca- tions that require a single module. • Automatic device mapping Signature modules transmit information to the loop controller regarding their circuit locations with respect to other Signature devices on the wire loop. • Electronic addressing Programmable addresses are downloaded from the loop con- troller, a PC, or the Signature Program/Service Tool. There are no switches or dials to set. • Stand-alone operation The module makes decisions and inputs an alarm from initiat- ing devices connected to it even if the loop controller’s polling interrogation stops. (Function availability dependent upon control panel.) • Ground fault detection by address Detects ground faults right down to the device level.

Issue 8 Installation GSA-CT1, GSA-CT1HT and GSA-CT2: modules mount to North American 2½ inch(64 mm) deep 1-gang boxes and 1½ inch (38 mm) deep 4 inch square boxes with 1-gang covers and GSA-MP mounting plates. The terminals are suited for #12 to #18 AWG (2.5 mm2 to 0.75 mm2) wire size. Application The duty performed by the GSA-CT1 and GSA-CT2/MCT2 is de- termined by their sub-type code or “Personality Code”. The code is selected by the installer depending upon the desired application and is downloaded from the loop controller. One personality code can be assigned to the GSA-CT1. Two per- sonality codes can be assigned to the GSA-CT2/MCT2. Codes 1, 2, 3 and 4 can be mixed on GSA-CT2/MCT2 modules only. For example, personality code 1 can be assigned to the first address (circuit A) and code 4 can be assigned to the second address (circuit B). NORMALLY-OPEN ALARM - LATCHING (Personality Code 1) - Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit A or B or both for Class B normally open dry contact initiating devices such as Pull Stations, Heat Detectors, etc. An ALARM signal is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed. The alarm condition is latched at the module. NORMALLY-OPEN ALARM - DELAYED LATCHING (Person- ality Code 2) - Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit A or B or both for Class B normally-open dry contact initiat- ing devices such as Waterflow Alarm Switches. An ALARM signal is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed for approximately 16 seconds. The alarm condition is latched at the module. NORMALLY-OPEN ACTIVE - NON-LATCHING (Personality Code 3) - Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit A or B or both for Class B normally-open dry contact monitoring input such as from Fans, Dampers, Doors, etc. An ACTIVE signal is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed. The active condition is not latched at the module. NORMALLY-OPEN ACTIVE - LATCHING (Personality Code 4) - Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit A or B or both for Class B normally open dry contact monitoring input such as from Supervisory and Tamper Switches. An ACTIVE signal is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed. The active condition is latched at the module.

Signature Series Overview The Signature Series intelligent analog-addressable system from Edwards Security is an entire family of multi-sensor detectors and mounting bases, multiple-function input and output modules, network and non-network control panels, and user-friendly main- tenance and service tools. Analog information from equipment connected to Signature devices is gathered and converted into digital signals. An onboard microprocessor in each Signature de- vice measures and analyzes the signal and decides whether or not to input an alarm. The microprocessor in each Signature device provides four additional benefits – Self-diagnostics and History Log, Automatic Device Mapping, Stand-alone Operation and Fast, Stable Communication. Self-diagnostics and History Log – Each Signature Series device constantly runs self-checks to provide important mainte- nance information. The results of the self-check are automatically updated and permanently stored in its non-volatile memory. This information is accessible for review any time at the control panel, PC, or using the Signature Program/Service Tool. Automatic Device Mapping –The Signature Data Control- ler (SDC) learns where each device’s serial number address is installed relative to other devices on the circuit. The SDC keeps a map of all Signature Series devices connected to it. The Signature Series Data Entry Program also uses the mapping feature. With interactive menus and graphic support, the wired circuits be- tween each device can be examined. Layout or “as-built” drawing information showing branch wiring (T-taps), device types and their address are stored on disk for printing hard copy. #6 Flat washers 6-32Self-tapping screws UIO Motherboard Plug-in (UIO)Module Captive screws Cabinet or electrical enclosure Electronic Addressing - The loop controller electronically ad- dresses each module, saving valuable time during system com- missioning.

Issue 9 Vigilant Catalog u Intelligent Input/Output 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Overview GSA-CC1/MCC1 Single Input Signal Modules and GSA-CC2/ MCC2 Dual Input Signal Modules are part of Vigilant's Signature Series system. They are intelligent analog addressable devices used for connecting, upon command from the loop controller, supervised Class B signal or telephone circuits to their respective power inputs. The power inputs may be polarized 24 Vdc to oper- ate audible and visible signal appliances or 25 and 70 VRMS to operate audio evacuation speakers and firefighter’s telephones. The actual operation of the GSA-CC1/MCC1 and GSA-CC2/ MCC2 is determined by the “personality code” selected by the installer. It is downloaded to the module from the Signature loop controller during system configuration. The GSA-CC1 and GSA-CC2 mount to standard North Ameri- can two-gang electrical boxes, making them ideal for locations where only one module is required. Separate I/O and data loop connections are made to each module. The GSA-MCC1 and GSA-MCC2 are part of the UIO family of plug-in Signature Series modules. They function identically to the GSA-CC1 and GSA-CC2, but take advantage of the modular flexibility and easy installation that characterize all UIO modules. Two- and six-module UIO motherboards are available. These can accommodate individual risers for each on-board module, or risers that are shared by any combination of its UIO modules. All wiring connections are made to terminal blocks on the motherboard. UIO assemblies may be mounted in Edwards enclosures. Standard Features • Single and Dual input (riser) select Use for connecting supervised 24 Vdc Audible/Visible signal circuits, or 25 and 70 VRMS Audio Evacuation and Telephone circuits to their power inputs. • Ring-tone generator When configured for telephone circuits, the GSA-CC1 gener- ates its own ring-tone signal eliminating the need for a separate ring-tone circuit. • Plug-in (UIO) or standard 2-gang mount UIO versions allow quick installation where multiple modules are required. The 2-gang mount version is ideal for remote locations that require a single module. • Automatic device mapping Signature modules transmit information to the loop controller regarding their circuit locations with respect to other Signature devices on the wire loop. • Electronic addressing Programmable addresses are downloaded from the loop con- troller, a PC, or the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool; there are no switches or dials to set. • Intelligent device with microprocessor All decisions are made at the module to allow lower com- munication speed with substantially improved control panel response time and less sensitivity to line noise and loop wiring properties; twisted or shielded wire is not required. • Ground fault detection by address Detects ground faults right down to the device level.

Electronic Addressing - The loop controller electronically ad- dresses each module saving valuable time during system com- missioning. Setting complicated switches or dials is not required. Each module has its own unique serial number stored in its on- board memory. The loop controller identifies each device on the loop and assigns a “soft” address to each serial number. If desired, the modules can be addressed using the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool. Personality Codes 5 and 6 apply to the GSA-CC1/MCC1 only and are assigned by the installer. Code 7 applies to the GSA-CC2/ MCC2 only. It is factory assigned; no user configuration is required. Application The operation of the GSA-CC1/MCC1 and GSA-CC2/MCC2 is determined by their sub-type code or “Personality Code”. The code is selected by the installer depending upon the desired ap- plication and is down-loaded from the loop controller. Codes 5 and 6 apply to the GSA-CC1/MCC1 only. Code 7 is assigned to the GSA-CC2/MCC2 only and automatically applies to both circuits (A and B). Personality Code 5: SIGNAL POWER or AUDIO EVACU- ATION (SINGLE RISER). Valid for the GSA-CC1/MCC1 only. Configures the module for use as a Class B Audible/Visible Signal power (24 Vdc polarized) or Audio Evacuation (25 or 70 VRMS) power selector. The ring-tone generator is disabled. The output circuit is monitored for open or shorted wiring. If a short exists, the control panel inhibits the activation of the audible/visible signal circuit to prevent connection to the power circuit. Personality Code 6: TELEPHONE w/RING-TONE (SINGLE RISER). Valid for the GSA-CC1/MCC1 only. Configures the module for use as a Telephone power selector. When a telephone handset is plugged into its jack or lifted from its hook, the module generates its own Ring-Tone signal. A separate ring-tone circuit is not needed. The module sends this signal to the control panel to indicate that an off-hook condition is present. When the system operator responds to the call, the ring-tone signal is disabled. Personality Code 7: SIGNAL POWER or AUDIO EVACUA- TION (DUAL RISER). Valid for the GSA-CC2/MCC2 only. Con- figures the module for use as a two circuit Class B Audible/Visible Signal power (24 Vdc polarized) or Audio Evacuation (25 or 70 VRMS) power selector. The single output circuit is monitored for open or shorted wiring. If a short exists, the control panel inhibits the activation of the audible/visible signal circuit to prevent con- nection to the power circuit. Warnings & Cautions This module will not operate without electrical power. As fires fre- quently cause power interruption, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your fire protection specialist. Compatibility The Signature Series modules are compatible only with Vigilant's Signature Loop Controller. Testing & Maintenance The module’s automatic self-diagnosis identifies when it is defec- tive and causes a trouble message. The user-friendly maintenance program shows the current state of each module and other perti- nent messages. Single modules may be turned off (de-activated) temporarily, from the control panel.

Issue 9 Signature Series Overview The Signature Series intelligent analog-addressable system from Edwards is an entire family of multi-sensor detectors and mount- ing bases, multiple-function input and output modules, network and non-network control panels, and user-friendly maintenance and service tools. Analog information from equipment connected to Signature devices is gathered and converted into digital signals. An onboard microprocessor in each Signature device measures and analyzes the signal and decides whether or not to input an alarm. The microprocessor in each Signature device provides four additional benefits – Self-diagnostics and History Log, Automatic Device Mapping, Stand-alone Operation and Fast, Stable Com- munication. Self-diagnostics and History Log – Each Signature Series device constantly runs self-checks to provide important mainte- nance information. The results of the self-check are automatically updated and permanently stored in its non-volatile memory. This information is accessible for review any time at the control panel, PC, or using the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool. The information stored in device memory includes: • Device serial number, address, and type • Time and date of last alarm • Most recent trouble code logged by the detector — 32 possible trouble codes may be used to diagnose faults. Automatic Device Mapping –The Signature Data Control- ler (SDC) learns where each device’s serial number address is installed relative to other devices on the circuit. The SDC keeps a map of all Signature Series devices connected to it. The Signature Series Data Entry Program also uses the mapping feature. With interactive menus and graphic support, the wired circuits between each device can be examined. Layout or “as-built” drawing information showing branch wiring (T-taps), device types and their address are stored on disk for printing hard copy. This takes the mystery out of the installation. The preparation of as-built drawings is fast and efficient. Device mapping allows the Signature Data Controller to discover: • Unexpected additional device addresses • Missing device addresses • Changes to the wiring in the circuit. Most Signature modules use a personality code selected by the installer to determine their actual function. Personality codes are downloaded from the SDC during system configuration and are indicated during device mapping. Page 6 of 6 DATA SHEET M85001-0237 Not to be used for installation purposes.

Issue 3.1 Vigilant Catalog u Intelligent Input-Output 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Overview GSA-CC1S and MCC1S Synchronization Output Modules are intelligent analog addressable devices that form part of Vigilant’s Signature line of products. The actual operation of the GSA-CC1S and MCC1S is determined by the “personality code” selected by the installer, which is downloaded to the module from the Signa- ture loop controller during system configuration. Depending on their assigned personality, Synchronization Output Modules may be used as a signal power riser selector to provide synchronization of fire alarm signals across multiple zones, or for connecting, upon command from the loop controller, supervised Class B signal or telephone circuits to their respective power inputs. The power inputs may be polarized 24 Vdc to operate au- dible and visible signal appliances or 25 and 70 VRMS to operate audio evacuation speakers and firefighter’s telephones. Standard Features • Provides UL 1971-compliant auto-sync output for visual signals Use for connecting a supervised output circuit to a supervised 24 Vdc riser input and synchronizing multiple notification appli- ance circuits. • Functions as an audible signal riser selector Use as a synch module or for connecting supervised 24 Vdc Audible/Visible signal circuits, or 25 and 70 VRMS Audio Evacuation and Telephone circuits to their power inputs. • Built-in ring-tone generator When configured for telephone circuits, the GSA-CC1S gener- ates its own ring-tone signal, eliminating the need for a sepa- rate ring-tone circuit. • Automatic device mapping Signature modules transmit information to the loop controller regarding their circuit locations with respect to other Signature devices on the wire loop. • Electronic addressing Programmable addresses are downloaded from the loop con- troller, a PC, or the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool; there are no switches or dials to set. • Intelligent device with microprocessor All decisions are made at the module to allow lower com- munication speed with substantially improved control panel response time and less sensitivity to line noise and loop wiring properties; twisted or shielded wire is not required.

Issue 3.1 Application The GSA-CC1S mounts to a standard North American two-gang electrical box, making it ideal for locations where only one module is required. Separate I/O and data loop connections are made to each module. The GSA-MCC1S is part of the UIO family of plug-in Signature Series modules. It functions identically to the GSA-CC1S, but takes advantage of the modular flexibility and easy installation that characterize all UIO modules. Two- and six-module UIO mother- boards are available. These can accommodate individual risers for each on-board module, or risers that are shared by any combina- tion of its UIO modules. All wiring connections are made to termi- nal blocks on the motherboard. UIO assemblies may be mounted in Edwards enclosures. Personality Codes The operation of the GSA-CC1S is determined by their sub-type code or “Personality Code”. The code is selected by the installer depending upon the desired application and is downloaded from the loop controller. Personality Code 5: Signal Power or Audio Evacuation (sin- gle riser). Configures the module for use as a Class B Audible/ Visible Signal power (24 Vdc polarized) or Audio Evacuation (25 or 70 VRMS) power selector. The ring-tone generator is disabled. The output circuit is monitored for open or shorted wiring. If a short exists, the control panel inhibits the activation of the audible/ visible signal circuit to prevent connection to the power circuit. Personality Code 6: Telephone with ring-tone (single riser). Configures the module for use as a Telephone power selector. When a telephone handset is plugged into its jack or lifted from its hook, the module generates its own Ring-Tone signal. A separate ring-tone circuit is not needed. The module sends this signal to the control panel to indicate that an off-hook condition is present. When the system operator responds to the call, the ring-tone signal is disabled. Personality Code 25: Visual Signal Synchronization. This personality code configures the module to provide synchronization of fire alarm signals across multiple zones. It functions as a signal power (24 Vdc) riser selector. The output wiring is monitored for open circuits and short circuits. A short circuit will cause the fire alarm control panel to inhibit the activation of the audible/visual signal circuit so the riser is not connected to the wiring fault. Warnings & Cautions This module will not operate without electrical power. As fires fre- quently cause power interruption, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your fire protection specialist. Edwards recommends that these modules be installed according to latest recognized edition of national and local fire alarm codes. Compatibility The Synchronization Output Module is compatible with VS and Quickstart loop controllers. Installation The GSA-CC1S: mounts to North American 2-1/2 inch (64 mm) deep 2-gang boxes and 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) deep 4 inch square boxes with 2-gang covers and GSA-MP mounting plates.

Issue 9.2 Vigilant Catalog u Strobes, Horns, Bells, Chimes 07 - 1 8 - 1 3 Overview Genesis ceiling horn-strobes are small, compact, and attractive audible-visible emergency signaling devices. Protruding no more than 1.6” (41 mm), Genesis horn-strobes blend with any decor. Thanks to patented breakthrough technology, Edwards Gen- esis strobes do not require bulky specular reflectors and lenses. Instead, an exclusive cavity design conditions light to produce a highly controlled distribution pattern. Significant development efforts employing this new technology have given rise to a new benchmark in strobe performance – FullLight technology. FullLight strobe technology produces a smooth light distribution pattern without the spikes and voids characteristic of specular reflectors. This ensures the entire coverage area receives consis- tent illumination from the strobe flash. As a result, Genesis strobes with FullLight technology go well beyond the minimum UL-required “cross” pattern. Depending on the model, Genesis horn-strobes feature 15 to 95, or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering information), which is selectable with a conveniently-located switch on the front of the device. The candela output setting is clearly visible even after final installation, yet it remains locked in place to prevent unauthorized movement after installation. Genesis horn-strobes feature textured housings in architecturally neu- tral white or eye-catching fire alarm red. An ingenious iconographic symbol indicates the purpose of the device. This universal symbol is code-compliant and is easily recognized by all building occu- pants regardless of what language they speak. Models with “FIRE” markings are also available. Standard Features • Field configurable – no need to remove the device – 15/30/75/95 cd and 95/115/150/177 cd models available – Switch settings remain visible even after the unit is installed – Low/high dB settings • Unique low-profile design – 30 per cent slimmer profile than comparable signals – No visible mounting screws – Available with white or red housings • Easy to install – Fits all standard 4” square electrical boxes with plenty of room behind the signal for extra wire – no extension ring or trim plate needed – Pre-assembled with captive hardware – no loose pieces – #18 to #12 AWG terminals – ideal for long runs or existing wiring • Unparalleled performance – Exclusive FullLight strobe technology produces the industry’s most even light distribution – Single high-efficiency microprocessor controls both horn and strobe – Low current draw minimizes system overhead – Independent horn control provided over a single pair of wires – Highly regulated in-rush current allows the maximum number of strobes on a circuit – 100 dB peak – multiple frequency tone improves wall penetration Field Configurable Ceiling Horn -Strobes Genesis Series One or more patents pending. 7300-1657: 0202 S218 Page 2 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0559 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 9.2 Application Genesis strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as ceiling- or wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambi- ent noise conditions exceed 105 dBA (87dBA in Canada), where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accom- modation as defined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (see application notes – USA). Combination horn-strobe signals must be installed in accordance with guidelines established for strobe devices. Strobes Genesis strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as ceiling- or wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambi- ent noise conditions exceed specified levels, where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accommodation. Consult with your Authority Having Jurisdiction for details. All Genesis strobes exceed UL synchronization requirements (within 10 milliseconds other over a two-hour period) when used with a synchronization source. Synchronization is important in order to avoid epileptic sensitivity. NOTE: The flash intensity of some visible signals may not be adequate to alert or waken occupants in the protected area. Research indicates that the intensity of strobe needed to awaken 90% of sleeping persons is approximately 100 cd. Edwards recommends that strobes in sleeping rooms be rated at at least 110 cd. WARNING: These devices will not operate without electrical power. As fires frequently cause power interruptions, further safeguards such as backup power supplies may be required. Horns Genesis horn output reaches as high as 99 dB (peak) and features a unique multiple frequency tone that results in excel- lent wall penetration and an unmistakable warning of danger. All models may be configured for either coded or non-coded signal circuits. They can also be set for low dB output with a jumper cut that reduces horn output by about 5 dB. The suggested sound pressure level for each signaling zone used with alert or alarm signals is at least 15 dB above the average ambient sound level, or 5 dB above the maximum sound level having a duration of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater, measured 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor. The average ambient sound level is, A-weighted sound pressure measured over a 24-hour period. Doubling the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically result in a 6 dB reduction of the received sound pressure level. The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materials in the space. A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable change in volume. 1.0" (25 mm) 6.8"dia. (173 mm) 0.60"(15mm) Dimensions Wiring Field wiring terminals accommodate #18 to #12 AWG (0.75 mm² to 2.5 mm²) wiring. Horn/strobes are interconnected with a single pair of wires as shown below. Installation and Mounting All models are intended for indoor wall or ceiling applications only. Horn-strobes mount to any flush North-American 4” square electrical box. Genesis ceiling horn-strobes simply unlatch and twist to open. This gains access to mounting screws and the selectable candela switch. The shallow depth of Genesis devices leaves ample room behind the signal for extra wiring. Once installed with the cover in place, no mounting screws are visible. Edwards recommends that these fire alarm horn-strobes always be installed in accordance with the latest recognized edition of national and local fire alarm codes. Field Configuration Depending on the model, Genesis horn-strobes may be set for 15 to 95, or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering information). The output setting is changed by simply opening the device and sliding the switch to the desired setting. The horn-strobe does not have to be removed to change the output setting. The setting remains visible through a small window on the front of the device after the cover is closed. The horn-strobe comes factory set for high dB output. Low dB output may be selected by cutting a jumper on the circuit board. This reduces the output by about 5 dB. Page 3 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0559 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 9.2 Current Draw Notes and Comments 1. Current values are shown in mA. 2. UL Nameplate Rating can vary from Typical Current due to measurement methods and instruments used. 3. Edwards recommends using the Typical Current for system design including NAC and Power Supply loading and voltage drop calculations. 4. Use the Vdc RMS current ratings for filtered power supply and battery AH calculations. Use the Vfwr RMS current ratings for unfiltered power supply calculations. 5. Fuses, circuit breakers and other overcurrent protection devices are typically rated for current in RMS values. Most of these devices operate based upon the heating affect of the current flowing through the device. The RMS current (not the mean current) determines the heating affect and therefore, the trip and hold threshold for those devices. 6. Our industry has used ‘mean’ currents over the years. However, UL will direct the industry to use the 2004 RMS values in the future.

Issue 11.1 Vigilant Catalog u Strobes, Horns, Bells, Chimes 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Overview The Genesis line of fire alarm and mass notification/emergency communications (ECS/MNS) signals are among the smallest, most compact audible-visible life safety signaling devices in the world. About the size of a deck of playing cards, these devices are designed to blend with any decor. Thanks to patented breakthrough technology, Edwards Gen- esis strobes do not require bulky specular reflectors and lenses. Instead, an exclusive cavity design conditions light to produce a highly controlled distribution pattern. Significant development efforts employing this new technology have given rise to a new benchmark in strobe performance – FullLight technology. FullLight strobe technology produces a smooth light distribution pattern without the spikes and voids characteristic of specular re- flectors. This ensures the entire coverage area receives consistent illumination from the strobe flash. As a result, Genesis strobes with FullLight technology go well beyond the UL-1971 and ULC-S526 light distribution requirements. Genesis strobes and horn-strobes offer selectable candela output by means of a conveniently-located switch on the side of the device. Models are also available that offer fixed 15/75 cd output. The candela output setting remains clearly visible even after final installation, yet it stays locked in place to prevent unauthorized tampering. Genesis ECS/MNS appliances offer emergency signaling with clear or amber lenses and with optional ALERT housing labels. They are ideal for applications that require differentiation between fire alarm and mass notification alerts. Standard Features • Unique low-profile design – The most compact UL-1971/ULC-S526 listed strobe available – Ultra-slim – protrudes less than one inch – Attractive appearance – No visible mounting screws • Four field-configurable options in one device – Select 15, 30, 75, or 110 cd strobe output – Select high (default) or low dB horn output – Select temporal (default) or steady horn output – Select public mode flash rate (default) or private mode temporal flash • Fixed 15/75 cd model available • ECS/MNS models available • Easy to install – Fits standard 1-gang electrical boxes – no trim plate needed – Optional trim plate accommodates oversized openings – Pre-assembled with captive hardware – #12 AWG terminals – ideal for long runs or existing wiring • Unparalleled performance – Industry’s most even light distribution – Meets tough synchronizing standards for strobes – Single microprocessor controls both horn and strobe – Independent horn control over a single pair of wires – Highly regulated in-rush current – Multiple frequency tone improves sound penetration – Field-programmable temporal strobe output option Field Configurable Horns and Strobes Genesis Series ECS/MNS appliances available with clear or amber lenses. 7135-1483: 0176 7125-1483: 0147-0148 S218/ S5389/ S2970 Page 2 of 6 DATA SHEET M85001-0573 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 11.1 Application Genesis strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as wall-mount- ed public-mode notification appliances for the hearing impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambient noise conditions exceed 105 dBA (87dBA in Canada), where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accommodation as defined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (see application notes – USA). Combination horn-strobe signals must be installed in accordance with guidelines established for strobe devices. Consult with your Authority Having Jurisdiction for details. All Genesis strobes exceed UL synchronization requirements (within 10 milliseconds over a two-hour period) when used with a synchronization source. Synchronization is important in order to avoid epileptic sensitivity. WARNING: These devices will not operate without electrical power. As fires frequently cause power interruptions, further safeguards such as backup power supplies may be required. Horns Genesis horn output reaches as high as 99 dB and features a unique multiple frequency tone that results in excellent sound penetration and an unmistakable warning of danger. Horns may be configured for either coded or non-coded signal circuits. They can also be set for low dB output with a jumper cut that reduces horn output by about 5 dB. Horn-only models may be ceiling-mounted or wall-mounted. The suggested sound pressure level for each signaling zone used with alarm signals is at least 15 dB above the average ambient sound level, or 5 dB above the maximum sound level having a duration of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater, measured 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor. The average ambient sound level is, A-weighted sound pressure measured over a 24-hour period. Doubling the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically result in a 6 dB reduction of the received sound pressure level. The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materials in the space. A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable change in volume. ECS/MNS Applications Genesis ECS/MNS strobe appliances bring the same high- performance fire alarm features and unobtrusive design to mass notification applications. Available with amber lenses and optional ALERT housing labels, they are ideal for applications that require differentiation between fire alarm and mass notification alerts. Installation Genesis horns and strobes mount to any standard one-gang sur- face or flush electrical box. Matching optional trim plates are used to cover oversized openings and can accommodate one-gang, two-gang, four-inch square, or octagonal boxes, and European 100 mm square. All Genesis signals come pre-assembled with captive mounting screws for easy in- stallation. Two tabs at the top of the signal unlock the cover to reveal the mounting hardware. The shallow depth of Genesis devices leaves ample room behind the signal for extra wiring. Once installed with the cover in place, no mounting screws are visible. Field Configuration Temporal horn and horn-strobe models are factory set to sound in a three-pulse temporal pattern. Units may be con- figured for use with coded systems by cutting a jumper on the circuit board. This results in a steady output that can be turned on and off (coded) as the system applies and removes power to the signal circuit. A Genesis Signal Master is required when horn- strobe models are configured for coded systems. Non-temporal, horn-only models sound a steady tone. Genesis clear strobes and horn-strobes are shipped from the fac- tory ready for use as UL 1971 compliant signals for public mode operation. These signals may be configured for temporal flash by cutting a jumper on the circuit board. This battery-saving feature is intended for private mode signaling only. Genesis clear strobes and horn-strobes may be set for 15, 30, 75, or 110 candela output. The output setting is changed by simply opening the device and sliding the switch to the desired setting. The device does not have to be removed to change the output setting. The setting remains visible through a small window on the side of the device after the cover is closed. Horns and horn-strobes are factory set for high dB output. Low dB output may be selected by cutting a jumper on the circuit board. This reduces the output by about 5 dB. Genesis Horn/Strobe with optional trim plate Wiring Field wiring terminals accommodate #18 to #12 AWG (0.75 mm² to 2.5 mm²) wiring.

Issue 2.2 06 - 2 7 - 1 3 Vigilant Catalog u Strobes, Horns, Bells, Chimes Standard Features • Outdoor and indoor rated • Low-profile design • Wall or ceiling mount • Room-side wiring accepts 18 to 12 AWG (0.75 to 2.5 mm2) • Wide operating temperature range • Field-selectable settings • Fully-compatible with Genesis synchronization protocols • Standard and high-output strobe intensities • Horn only and horn-strobe options Overview Genesis WG4 Series horns and horn-strobe appliances are among the most versatile emergency appliances of their kind. Rated for indoor or outdoor use, they are suitable for a wide range of wet and harsh environments with a listed operating temperature range of as low as -40 °F to as high as 151 °F (-40 °C to 66 °C). Field-configurable light and sound output settings add to their on- site flexibility, while optional FIRE markings make them ideal for fire alarm applications. These appliances are suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, and are ideal for challenging conditions such as parking garages and process areas. They are available for mounting on the ceiling or the wall, and thanks to an ingenious optional full backplane sealing gasket, can be installed to recessed (in-the-pour/block) electrical boxes. WG4 notification appliances also mount to suit- able surface boxes. Optional color-matched trim skirts provide a clean, finished appearance. All appliance wiring is accomplished room-side for easy installation. WG4 Series appliances feature an efficient and powerful piezo sounder. The multi-candela strobes are available with clear lenses in two output categories – standard and high-output. They are precision-timed to meet UL 1971 synchronization standards, and field-configurable for one of four candela intensities. Candela settings are viewable even after installation through an innovative sealed viewport display. Outdoor Rated Horns and Horn-Strobes Genesis WG4 Series Page 2 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0628 Not to be used for installation purposes. Issue 2.2 Installation and Mounting Front cover Backplate Optional trim skirt WG4 Gasket Electrical box WG4 notification appliances are rated for outdoor use and are suitable for indoor or outdoor applications on walls or ceilings. For surface-mounting in outdoor or wet applications, appliances must be mounted to a 449 or 74347U electrical box. In dry conditions, they are compatible with standard 4-inch square by 1½-inch deep electri- cal boxes. When using the optional WG4WTS or WG4RTS trim skirt, a 449 or 4-inch square by 2-1/8" deep box must be used. The Genesis WG4 horn and horn-strobe may be wall- or ceiling- mounted, and may be placed in one of four positions: strobe above, strobe below, and strobe to either side. The shallow depth of Gen- esis devices leaves room behind the appliance for extra wiring. Field Configuration Wire slot Horn volume jumper (JP3) Strobe pattern jumper (JP4) Horn pattern jumper (JP1) Candela setting switch (S2) Horn pattern: Audible output for WG4 horns and horn-strobes is factory set to to sound in a three-pulse temporal pattern. Units may be configured for use with coded systems by cutting a JP1 on the circuit board. This results in a steady output that can be turned on and off (coded) as the system applies and removes power to the notification circuit. A Genesis Signal Master is required when horn-strobe models are con- figured for coded systems. Horn output: Horns and horn-strobes are factory set for high dB output. Low dB output may be selected by cutting a jumper on the circuit board. This reduces the output by about 5 dB. Strobe pattern: Genesis WG4 horn-strobes are factory set for use as UL 1971 compliant notification appliances for public mode operation. These notification appliances may be configured for temporal flash by cutting JP4 on the circuit board. This battery-saving feature is intended for private mode signaling only. Strobe output: Genesis WG4 horn-strobes may be set for one of four out- put intensities.The output setting is changed by simply opening the device and sliding the switch to the desired setting. The device does not have to be removed to change the output setting. The setting remains visible after the cover is closed through a small window on the front of the device. Application Horns Genesis horn output reaches as high as 97 dBA in accordance with UL 464 (104 dBA in accordance with ULC-S525) and features a unique frequency tone that results in excellent sound penetration and an unmistakable warning of danger. Horns may be configured for either coded or non-coded notification circuits. They can also be set for low dB output with a jumper cut that reduces horn output by about 5 dB. The suggested sound pressure level for each notification zone used with alarm notification appliances is at least 15 dB above the average ambient sound level, or 5 dB above the maximum sound level having a duration of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater, measured 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor. The average ambient sound level is A-weighted (fast response) sound pressure measured over a 24-hour period. Doubling the distance from the notification appliance to the ear will theoretically result in a 6 dB reduction of the received sound pressure level. The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materi- als in the space. A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable change in volume. Strobe Application Genesis clear-lensed strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as wall- or ceiling-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing impaired, and UL 1638-listed for outdoor applications. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambient noise conditions exceed specified levels, where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accommodation. Visible appliance synchronization is required to avoid causing issues with people who have Photosensitive Epilepsy (PSE). Noti- fication appliance synchronization is also generally required when more than two strobe appliances are in the same field of view from any one location. All Genesis strobes meet UL synchronization requirements (within 10 milliseconds over a two-hour period) when used with a synchronization source. WARNING: These devices will not operate without electrical power. As fires frequently cause power interruptions, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your local fire protection specialist. Edwards recommends that these devices always be installed in accordance with the latest recognized edition of national and local codes. Refer to the appropriate codes and standards for mounting height information. Page 3 of 4 DATA SHEET M85001-0628 Not to be used for installation purposes.
