Introduction

About this Manual

This installation and operation manual provides information on installing and operating the PFC-5000 Microprocessor-Based

Fire Alarm Control Panel.

About the PFC-5000

Potter’s PFC-5000 Fire Alarm Control Panels provide 2, 4, or 8 supervised Class B (ULI Style B) Initiating Circuits, or 1,2 or 4 supervised Class A (ULI Style D) Initiating Circuits, and 2 or 4 supervised Class A or B (ULI Style Z or Y) NAC Circuits. All

Circuits are supervised for opens and ground faults, and NAC Circuits for shorts. Optional Modules include a ZA-42 Zone

Adder (required for full capacity in the PFC-5004E only), a UDACT-9100 Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (DACT) or a PR-5100 Polarity Reversal & City Tie Module, and ARM-4 or ARM-8 Relay Modules. The two enclosures are fl ush or surface mountable, and can be used for retrofi ts and on new installations.

Overall Features:

The small enclosure versions, PFC-5002, & PFC-5004, have 2 and 4 Class B (Style B) initiating circuits respectively which may be confi gured as 1 or 2 Class A (Style D) Circuits respectively. These also have 2 Power Limited Class A/B (Style Z/Y)

NAC circuits with individual trouble indicators.

The large enclosure version, PFC-5004E, has 4 Class B (Style B) initiating circuits which may be confi gured as 2 Class A

(Style D) circuits respectively. It also has 2 power limited Class A/B (Style Z/Y) NAC circuits with individual trouble indicators. With a ZA-42 Zone Adder Module, an extra 4 Class B (2 Class A) initiating circuits, and 2 Class A/B NAC circuits are added.

Each initiating circuit is confi gurable as a normal or verifi ed alarm. In addition, on a Class B PFC-5004 or PFC-5004E,

Initiating Circuit 3 may be a Waterfl ow Zone (as may Initiating Circuit 7 if a ZA-42 is installed), and initiating circuit 4 may be a latched or non-latched supervisory zone (as may initiating circuit 8 if a ZA-42 is installed). On a Class A PFC-5004E with a ZA-42, initiating circuit 3 may be a waterfl ow zone and initiating circuit 4 may be a latched or non-latched supervisory zone.

NAC circuits can be confi gured as audible or visual and as silenceable or non-silenceable. Audibles may be Steady,

Temporal Code, California Code, or March Time.

Initiating circuits may be individually disconnected by a slide-switch.

Confi gurable signal silence inhibit (disabled or 1 minute), auto signal silence (disabled or 20 minutes), and one-man walk test.

Subsequent alarm, supervisory, and trouble operation.

Four-wire resettable smoke power supply (100 mA max.).

Auxiliary relay contacts for common alarm and common supervisory (disconnectable), and a common trouble relay. If no

Supervisory zones are confi gured then the common supervisory relay can be used as an extra common alarm relay.

Interface for an RTI Remote Trouble Indicator.

RS-485 Interface for 1 to 3 Remote Multiplex Annunciators (RA8F.)

The PFC-5002, PFC-5004 may use two of optional UDACT-9100 (DACT), PR-5100 (City Tie), ARM-4 or ARM-8 Relay Modules.

The PFC-5004E may use optional UDACT-9100 (DACT), PR-5100 (City Tie), and one of ARM-4 or ARM-8 Relay Modules.

The PFC-5008 is the same as PFC-5004E except the ZA-42 zone adder module is factory installed and may have UDACT-

9100 (DACT) factory installed.

Slide Switch controls and LED Common indicators.

Easy confi guration via DIP switches.

Extensive transient protection.

Technical Support

For all technical support inquiries, please contact Potter ’s Technical Support Department between 8 A.M. and 5 P.M. (CDT) Monday through

Friday, excluding holidays.

Document Conventions

Circuits and Zones

The term circuits refers to an actual electrical interface, initiating (detection), NAC (signal), or relay.

The term zone is a logical concept for a fi re alarm protected area, and will consist of at least one circuit.

Often the terms zone and circuit are used interchangeably, but in this manual the term circuit is used.

Wiring Styles

Initiating circuits are confi gured by default as Class B (Style B). They may be globally (all or none) confi gured as Class A

(Style D) as described in System Confi guration on page 28. This operation uses odd and even pairs of two-wire Class B (Style B) circuits to make one four-wire Class A (Style D) circuit, thus cutting in half the number of available initiating circuits.

Indicating circuits may be individually wired as Class A (Style Z) or Class B (Style Y) without affecting the number of circuits available (see Field Wiring on page 12). Indicating Circuits may also be referred to as Notifi cation Appliance Circuits (NAC).

Field Wiring

General Field Wiring Considerations

Because most of the Field Wiring on the PFC-5000’s is to the Main Boards on the swinging dead front, it is very important to properly dress the wires so as not to place stress on either their connection to the boards, or runs to conduit. The Figure below shows the required wiring techniques.

Do not run panel line voltage in the same conduit as initiating circuits. Undesired transient voltage could cause faults on initiating circuits.

Main Fire Alarm Module Terminal Connections

Wire devices to terminals as shown in Figure 11 below. See Wiring Tables on page 20 for wiring instructions, Appendix A on page 33 for compatible devices, and Appendix C on page 37 for specifi cations.

Do not exceed power supply ratings:

PFC-5002, PFC-5004, total current for NAC circuits is

2A max.

PFC-5004E/PFC-5008, total current for NAC circuits is 5A max.

When wiring devices, please keep in mind the following:

• All terminals are shown from the back of the main fi re alarm board assembly (pointing towards the rear of the enclosure).

All power limited circuits must use type FPL, FPLR, or FPLP power limited cable.

Initiating circuits are fully supervised and rated for 26 VDC, 3 ma standby, 2.2 Vp-p ripple, 50 mA max. alarm. They may be confi gured as required. Maximum loop resistance is 100 ohms, 50 ohms per side.

NAC circuits are fully supervised and rated for 24 FWR 1.7 amp max. each. They must be wired as shown in the wiring tables on page 20.

On the PFC-5004 & PFC-5004E/PFC-5008, the auxiliary common supervisory relay contacts will act as a second set of common alarm contacts if there are no initiating circuits set as supervisory.

Initiating circuits must be all either Style B or D. If Style D is selected, cut the number of circuits in half.

Polarity Reversal and City Tie Module (Model:PR-5100) Terminal Connections

See Appendix C on page 37 for module specifi cations. Wire as shown in Figure 15 below using proper wire gauges. Refer to

LT-877POT for more details.

Note that for use in the USA, the installer must add an Atlantic Scientifi c (Tel. 407-725-8000) Model #24544 Protective Device, or similar ULI-Listed QVRG Secondary Protector, as shown. For use in Canada, the protective device is still recommended, but the PR-5100 may be connected directly to polarity reversal and city tie wiring.

If UDACT-9100 and PR-5100 are used then

Protector not needed. UDACT-9100 has integral protector and PR-5100 is plugged into it.

Notes:

• The terminal blocks are “depluggable” for ease of wiring.

• The city tie interface is not power limited.

• Use either the PR-5100’s City Tie or Reverse Polarity Interface Module - not both.

System Checkout

Before Turning The Power On...

1. To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the main AC supply.

2. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.

3. Check all fi eld (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.

4. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged-in properly.

5. Check all jumpers and switches for proper setting.

6. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.

7. Check that the chassis is connected to Earth Ground (cold water pipe).

8. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.

Power-up Procedure

1. After completing the System Checkout procedures, power-up the panel. The “AC-ON” green LED should illuminate, the

“Common Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound.

2. Press the System Reset button. Since the batteries are not connected, the “Battery Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound intermittently, and the Common Trouble LED should fl ash.

3. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity; the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-). All indicators should extinguish except for normal power “AC-ON” green LED.

4. Confi gure the fi re alarm control panel as described in the System Confi guration section on page 28.

Troubleshooting

Message Description

Circuit Trouble Normally when a circuit trouble occurs, its designated trouble indicator will be illuminated, as well as the

Common Trouble indicator and Trouble buzzer. To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop or see if the circuit disconnect switch is in the ON or CLOSED position. Note: disconnecting a circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal position).

Remote Fail

Ground Fault

The panel will display a Remote Fail for any failure reported by, or failure to communicate with a remote annunciator, UDACT-9100, or PR-5100.

The PFC-5000 panel has a Common Ground Fault Detector. To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the chassis or other earth ground connection.

Battery Trouble Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble with steady yellow illumination of “Battery Trouble” indicator. If battery trouble condition persists, replace the batteries as soon as possible.

Charger Trouble Internal Battery Charger fault is indicated with a slow fl ash of “Battery Trouble” indicator. This fault will require factory repair.

Common Trouble Initiating Circuit, Auxiliary power, or 4-wire positive terminal shorts to negative power supply will result in a common trouble only. There are no individual indicators for these trouble types. If UDACT is used only common trouble is reported, there are no unique UDACT reporting codes.

Indicators

Buzzer

The buzzer is activated by any of the following:

• Fire alarm: steady

• Supervisory alarm: fast fl ash rate of 120 beeps per minute

• Trouble: slow fl ash rate of 20 beeps per minute

If the buzzer turns on in response to a non-latching trouble or supervisory, it will be turned off if the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason for it to be on.

AC On LED

The green AC On LED illuminates steadily while the main AC power is within acceptable levels. It turns off when the level falls below the power-fail threshold and the panel switches to standby (battery) power.

Common Alarm LED

The Common Alarm indicator turns on steady red whenever the panel is in alarm as a result of an alarm on any initiating circuit.

Since all alarms are latched until the panel is reset, the indicator will remain on until reset.

22

Common Supervisory LED (PFC-5004 or PFC-5004E/PFC-5008 only)

The amber Common Supervisory LED illuminates steadily when there is a supervisory alarm in the panel resulting from any latching or non-latching supervisory circuit. The LED turns off if all non-latching supervisory circuits are restored and there are no active latching supervisory circuits. Latching supervisory alarms remain active until the panel is reset.

Common Trouble LED

The Common Trouble indicator fl ashes amber (at 20 fl ashes per minute) when the panel detects any trouble condition. It turns off when all non-latching troubles are cleared.

Remote Trouble LED (PFC-5004 or PFC-5004E/PFC-5008 only)

The Remote Failure indicator illuminates amber if the panel detects trouble at a city tie or DACT module, or communication or local trouble with a remote annunciator. It turns off once these conditions return to normal.

Fire Drill LED

The amber Fire Drill LED illuminates steadily while fi re drill is active.

Auxiliary Disconnect LED

The Auxiliary Disconnect Indicator fl ashes amber (20 fl ashes per minute) when the Auxiliary Disconnect switch is activated. It turns off when the switch is activated a second time. When on, the Auxiliary Disconnect LED indicates that common alarm and common supervisory relays, and any ARM-4 / ARM-8 relays are not activated. The trouble relay is activated. If installed, DACT or polarity reversal and city tie modules are also inactive, causing a trouble condition.

Signal Silence LED

The amber Signal Silence LED fl ashes at the trouble fl ash rate when indication circuits are silenced either by the Signal Silence button or by the Auto Signal Silence timer. It turns off when the signals are re-sounded by a subsequent alarm.

Battery Trouble LED

The Battery Trouble LED turns on steady when the battery is either low (below 20.4 VDC) or disconnected. It fl ashes amber at the trouble fl ash rate if there is a Battery Charge trouble.

Ground Fault LED

The Ground Fault LED fl ashes amber at the trouble fl ash rate when the Ground Fault Detector detects a ground fault on any fi eld wiring. It turns off when the ground fault is cleared.

Test LED

The Test LED illuminates amber when the fi re alarm panel is in walk test mode.

Circuit Status LEDs

These LEDs indicate the status of initiating circuits. They illuminate

Alarm: Steady red

Alarm Verifi cation or waterfl ow retard in progress: fast fl ashing red (120 fl ashes per minute)

Pending Alarm: (see Circuit Disconnect Switches on the following page) fast fl ashing red (120 fl ashes per minute)

Supervisory: Steady amber

Circuit Trouble LEDs

These LEDs indicate trouble for initiating and NAC circuits. They fl ash (20 fl ashes per minute) for any fi eld wiring fault, or if the circuit has been disconnected.

23

Controls

System Reset Switch

The System Reset momentary switch resets the fi re alarm control panel and all circuits:

• Resets all latching trouble conditions

• Resets four-wire smoke supply

• Turns off Signal Silence

• Stops and resets all timers

• Aux Disconnect is not affected

• Resets all initiating circuits

• Turns off all NAC circuits

• Turns off Fire Drill

• Processes inputs as new events

Signal Silence Switch

Activating the Signal Silence momentary switch when the panel is in alarm turns on the signal silence indicator and deactivates any silenceable NAC circuits. Non-silenceable circuits are unaffected. Signals will re-sound upon any subsequent alarm. This switch does not function during any confi gured Signal Silence Inhibit timer period. It also does not function if the NAC circuits are active as the result of a fi re drill.

Fire Drill Switch

The Fire Drill momentary switch activates all non-disconnected NAC circuits, but does not transmit any alarms via the DACT, city tie, or common alarm relay, nor are any ARM-4 or ARM-8 relays activated. The fi re drill is cancelled by activating the switch again, or if the panel goes into a real alarm.

Auxiliary Disconnect Switch

Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect momentary switch activates the auxiliary disconnect function. Activating the switch again de-activates the function. When auxiliary disconnect is active, common alarm and common supervisory relays, and any ARM-4 /

ARM-8 relays are not activated. The trouble relay is activated. If installed, DACT or polarity reversal and city tie modules are also inactive, causing a trouble condition.

Lamp Test Switch

Activation of the Lamp Test momentary switch turns all front panel Indicators and the buzzer on.

Buzzer Silence Switch

Activation of the Buzzer Silence momentary switch while the Buzzer is sounding silences the Buzzer. The Buzzer will resound if there is a subsequent event. Switch activation will also silence the buzzer on all attached annunciators.

Circuit Disconnect Switches

Activation of these non-momentary switches disconnects the respective Initiating Circuit, and causes a Circuit Trouble for that

Initiating Circuit while active. If the disconnect switch is turned off (to its normal position) while there is an Alarm condition in that circuit, the respective circuit Status LED will fl ash at a rate of 120 fl ashes per minute to indicate a Pending Alarm, for 5 seconds. If the disconnect switch is not turned back on, an Alarm will be processed normally. To enable Circuit Disconnect feature, confi guration DIP switch 9 #3 must be set to “ON”.

24

Operation

All alarm inputs are treated in a similar manner. Alarm inputs include non-verifi ed or verifi ed alarms, and water-fl ow alarms.

Activation of any alarm input when the panel is not already in alarm cause the following:

The buzzer sounds steadily

If fi re drill is active, it is cancelled

The Common Alarm indicator turns on

The common alarm relay activates if aux disconnect is not active

The Auto Signal Silence timer, if confi gured, starts

The Signal Silence Inhibit timer, if confi gured, starts

ARM-4 / ARM-8 relays are activated as confi gured, provided that aux disconnect is not active

Signals and strobes are activated

Subsequent Alarms when the panel is already in alarm, cause the following:

The buzzer sounds steadily

If signals have been silenced as a result of the signal silence button or the auto signal silence timer, signals are resounded as they were before signal silence, the signal silence indicator is turned off, and the auto signal silence timer, if confi gured, is restarted

Signals and strobes are activated

Circuit Types

The term circuits refers to an actual electrical interface, either initiating (detection) or NAC (signal). The term zone is a logical concept for a fi re alarm protected area, and will consist of at least one circuit. Often the terms zone and circuit are used interchangeably, but in this manual the term circuit is used.

25

Initiating (Detection) Circuit Types

Circuit Type

Non-Verifi ed Alarm

Description

This is a “normal” type of alarm which may have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached. Any activation of these devices will immediately result in an alarm condition in the fi re alarm control panel. An alarm condition causes the associated circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm

LED to illuminate red.

These alarms are verifi ed by a reset and timing procedure, and may have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached. Any activation of pull stations or heat detectors will result in an alarm condition in the fi re alarm control panel within four seconds. Smoke detectors will be verifi ed for a real alarm within 60 seconds depending upon the startup time of the smoke detectors being used. If four seconds is too long a response time for pull stations, then they should be wired separately on a nonverifi ed alarm circuit. An alarm condition causes the associated circuit Status LED and the Common

Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Verifi ed Alarm

Water-Flow Alarm

Non-Latching

Supervisory

Latching Supervisory

Any subsequent alarms on other circuits (whether verifi ed or not) is deemed a “verifi cation” on the fi rst activation of a verifi ed circuit and will result in immediate panel alarm, bypassing any remaining verifi cation time.

Any open troubles that occur on a Verifi ed Alarm circuit after initial activation will cause that circuit to alarm immediately. This is a fail-safe operation that handles any fi re induced wiring faults.

An alarm for water-fl ow sensors. These alarms are identical to normal non-verifi ed alarms except that any NAC circuits programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are non-silenceable. Also, if waterfl ow retard operation is enabled, then these circuits are sampled every one second; if ten samples are active within any 15 second interval, the water-fl ow alarm is confi rmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the associated circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note: Do not use the retard operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed 90 seconds.

These alarms are for supervisory devices. An activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status

LED and the Common Supervisory LED to illuminate amber. The buzzer will sound at fast buzzer rate.

If the circuit activation is removed, the supervisory condition will clear (so long as there are no other supervisory conditions in the system) and the circuit Status LED will extinguish.

These alarms are for supervisory devices. An activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status

LED and the Common Supervisory LED to illuminate amber. The buzzer will sound continuously. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will not clear. Installations according to

ULC-S524 should be set for Latching Supervisory.

26

NAC (Signal) Circuits Types

Circuit Type Description

Silenceable Signal For audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the confi gured evacuation code (default is temporal code) during single-stage alarm, or two stage general alarm, or the alert code during a two stage system’s alert (fi rst) stage.

Non-Silenceable Signal For audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the confi gured evacuation code (default is temporal code) during single-stage alarm, or two-stage general alarm, or the alert code during a two stage system’s alert (fi rst) stage.

Silenceable Visual For visual devices such as strobes that use no code pattern (they are continuous).

Non-Silenceable Visual Same as previous, but is non-silenceable.

Note:

• After you change any confi guration switches, perform a system hard reset or power off/on sequence. If this is not done, then a Switch Tamper Trouble will occur. Perform a hard reset by pressing SW0 push button switch on back of main panel pcb.

• Do not use retard operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed 90 seconds.

29

When confi guring the PFC-5000 main board, keep in mind the following information:

• Only NAC circuit 2 may be confi gured for visual devices.

If initiating circuit 3 is confi gured as waterfl ow, the corresponding verifi ed selection becomes a retard selection.

If initiating circuit 4 is confi gured as alarm, the corresponding latching selection has no effect.

If initiating circuit 4 is confi gured as supervisory, the corresponding verifi ed selection has no effect.

The selection of Class A/B (Style Z/Y) NAC circuits is only a matter of how they are wired. See connection information on page 13.

If Class A (Style D) initiating circuits are selected, JW1 and JW2 jumpers must also be set. Class B initiating circuits 1 and 2 combine to create Class A Circuit #1, and Class B initiating circuits 3 and 4 combine to create Class A Circuit #2. DIP switches for circuits 3 and 4 are ignored except for an PFC-5004E with a ZA-42 Adder Module. LED indicators for circuits

3 and 4 are non-functional except for an PFC-5004E with a ZA-42 Adder Module.

----------------Not Used Switch 5, #8

Note:

• After you change any confi guration switches, perform a system hard reset or power off/on sequence. If this is not done, then a Switch Tamper Trouble will occur. Perform a hard reset by pressing SW0 push button switch on back of main panel pcb.

• Do not use retard operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed 90 seconds.

When confi guring the ZA-42, keep in mind the following information:

• Only NAC Circuit #4 may be confi gured for visual devices.

If Initiating Circuit #7 is confi gured as waterfl ow, the corresponding verifi ed selection becomes a retard selection.

If Initiating Circuit #8 is confi gured as alarm, the corresponding latching selection has no effect.

If Initiating Circuit #8 is confi gured as supervisory, the corresponding verifi ed selection has no effect.

The selection of Class A/B (Style Z/Y) NAC circuits is only a matter of how they are wired. See connection information on page 15.

If Class A (Style D) initiating circuits are selected, JW2 and JW3 jumpers must also be set. Class B initiating circuits 5 and 6 combine to create Class A Circuit #3, and Class B initiating circuits 7 and 8 combine to create Class A Circuit #4. DIP switches for circuits 5 to 8 are ignored, and led indicators for circuits 5 to 8 are non-functional.

Walk Test Operation

A walk test allows an installer to verify the Initiating Circuit wiring in a system. To enter walk test, press and hold both the Buzzer

Silence and Lamp Test momentary switches for at least one second. You can identify circuits to be tested using the Circuit

Disconnect slide switches. Confi guration SW9 #3 Zone Disconnect Enable/Disable must be set to “ON” to allow Walk Test

Operation. Activation of any initiating circuit that has been selected for the walk test will cause the audible NAC circuits to activate briefl y for a number of short bursts corresponding to the circuit number. Any subsequent activations on the same initiating circuit will activate the audible NAC circuit only once. If another initiating circuit is activated then the audible NAC circuits will activate for a number of short bursts corresponding to the circuit number of the new zone being walk-tested, and so on.

For example, if Initiating Circuit #3 is fi rst activated, the indication circuits will sound for three bursts. Any subsequent activations of Initiating Circuit #3 will sound for one burst. The initial burst interval denoting the count of the circuit number is one second on followed by 1/2 second off. The subsequent burst interval denoting additional activations on the same initiating circuit is 1/2 second on then off. After the sounding pattern has been sent on the NAC circuits, the initiating circuit is reset and tested again. If it is still active (in alarm) the pattern will be re-sent. Trouble on any initiating circuit when in walk test mode causes all NAC circuits to be activated continuously for fi ve seconds.

Alarm verifi cation and water-fl ow alarm retard operations are disabled on circuits being walk tested. All circuits not selected for walk-test continue to function normally. The walk test operation is disabled if the fi re alarm control panel is in alarm or goes into alarm while walk-test is active. It will also time out after 60 minutes of no activity.
