Section 3-3 - General Installation Instructions
Refer to Figure 3-1 on Page 3-2, which shows the location of modules and wiring connections used in the
installation of the SAFEPATH
®
Panel.
Prepare a System Wiring Diagram
1. Using Section 3-4 on Page 3-5, prepare a complete system-wiring diagram.
Keep a copy of the system-wiring diagram with the SAFEPATH
®
Panel manual as a permanent
record of the system wiring.
Unpack and Check Inventory
2. Carefully unpack the SAFEPATH
®
Panel and make sure each item described on the packing slip
is present and undamaged.
Mounting
3. Mount the SAFEPATH
®
Panel and optional expansion modules in the desired locations as
described in Section 3-5 on Page 3-15.
4. Mount any additional wiring boxes or junction boxes needed to interconnect field wiring.
5.
Connect conduit fittings or bushings as needed through the knockouts provided on the top and
bottom of the SAFEPATH
®
Panel.
Field Wiring Connections
6.
Install field wiring in conduit when required, following the most current National Electrical Code
(NFPA-70) and local codes for the type of system being installed. Make all necessary
connections at any additional wiring or junction boxes.
7.
Wire all ancillary equipment, power connections, and Fire Alarm Control Panel correctly and
prepare all wires for hookup to the SAFEPATH
®
Panel. Do not connect Ancillary equipment or
NAC speaker and strobe appliance wiring to the SAFEPATH
®
Panel. This will be done
starting with Step 13 of this procedure.
8.
Connect supplied 10K Ohm, ¼ Watt test resistors to Strobe and Audio NAC Circuit output
connections on Mother Board. (If SALL-15S amplifier module is being used, connect a 10K Ohm
¼ Watt resistor to the “SPK AMP” terminals also. See Figure 3-2 for location.
