LCD-40 Series Remote Fire Annunciators

The LCD-40 Series, consisting of the LCD-40 and LCD-40L, are com-pact, attractive, 40-character backlit LCD fire annunciators that arecapable of displaying English-language text. They mimic the display onthe MS-9200 main control circuit board and will annunciate devicetype, point alarm, trouble or supervisory condition, zone assignmentplus any custom alpha labels programmed into the control panel. Theyalso provide system status LEDs to display power, alarm, trouble andsupervisory conditions. Additionally, the LCD-40 is capable of per-forming critical system functions such as acknowledge, silence, reset and drill, remotely from the host control panel.

Communication between the control panel and the LCD-40 Series is accomplished over a serial interface employingthe EIA-485 communication standard. Up to 32 LCD-40 Series Annunciators may be connected to the TERM(EIA-485) circuit. The annunciators may be powered from the host FACP or a remote UL listed filtered power sup-ply such as the Fire•Lite FCPS-24F. Refer to “LCD-40 Series Annunciator Wiring” on page 72, for detailed wiringrequirements and “System Edit” on page 45, for information on programming the MS-9200 for annunciator use.

Note: If software with either the Part Number 73750 or 73829 is installed in the MS-9200, the LCD-40 Series must have software with a Part Number of 73779 or 73879 to operate with the FACP. If software with a Part Number of #M9200V20 or higher is installed in the MS-9200, the LCD-40 Series must have software with a Part Number of #LCD40V20 or higher to operate with the FACP.

LDM Series Lamp Driver Modules – Graphic Annunciator

The LDM Series Lamp Driver Modules, which consist of the LDM-32F master and LDM-E32F expander modules,are used to provide an interface to a custom graphic LED annunciator. The master module provides power and con-trol for a maximum of three expander modules. The LDM-32F and LDM-E32F have output connectors which areused to drive lamps or LEDs and input connectors which are used for remote switch functions. Refer to the LDMSeries Lamp Drive Modules Manual for a complete description. See “ACS and LDM Series Wiring” on page 73, forwiring requirements and “System Edit” on page 45, for details on programming the MS-9200 for annunciator use.
