Brand: Altronix

Model: AL602ULADA(J) Wall Mountable NAC Power Extenders

Type: User guide

Altronix AL602ULADA(J) Wall Mountable NAC Power Extenders are versatile devices that can be used with or without specific synchronization modules provided by some manufacturers. They can operate with either one or two outputs from the FACP and support silencing of audible notification appliances. Ideal for a variety of applications, these extenders can be used to synchronize notification appliances, such as horns and strobes, and to provide a means of silencing them simultaneously.

1. General Information (Use this in conjunction with respective Installation Guide):

Altronix AL602ULADA, AL602ULADAJ, AL802ULADA, AL802ULADAJ, AL1002ULADA, AL1002ULADAJ and

R1002ULADA are very versatile devices. They can be used with or without specific synchronization modules

provided by some manufacturers. Multiple units can be synchronized by using either the built-in sync mode or a

external synchronization module. Please note, that only notification appliances with synchronization capabilities

can be synchronized. Units can operate with either one (1) or two (2) outputs from the FACP.

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

2. Class A and Class B Hookups:

Units can be used with the outputs configured for:

• Two (2) Class A (Fig. 2a ). • Two (2) Class B and one (1) Class A NAC circuits

• Up to Four (4) Class B. (Fig. 2b).

NAC Loop 1 starts on Output 1 and terminates

on Output 3. Switch SW1, when ON, provides

proper termination for this loop. NAC Loop 2

starts on Output 2 and terminates on Output 4,

SW2 must be turned ON for proper termination.

Please make sure that all the DIP switches for

corresponding outputs are set the same way.

For combination of two (2) Class B and one

(1) Class A circuit, only one (1) switch (SW1 or

SW2) must be turned ON, terminating Class A

circuit only.

3. Non-synchronizable NAC Appliances:

When using NAC appliances not designed to support synchronization feature, it is recommended to use separate

output circuits for audible notification appliances (horns) and visual notification appliances (strobes). Set DIP switches

for the visual notification appliances to follow Input 1 [IN1] and for audible notification appliances to follow Input 2

[IN2]. This will allow, when using two (2) outputs from the FACP, to support silencing of audible notification appli-

ances. When using only one (1) FACP output, set all DIP switches to follow Input 1 [IN1]. The units outputs can each

be set for the desired NAC drive signal, such as Code 3 or march time sequence (Output Programming Selection

Table, pg. 6). Non-synchronizable Audible Appliances will follow the sequence, when feature is selected.

4. Using Multiple NAC Power Extenders from an FACP:

AL602/AL802/1002ULADA(J)/R1002ULADA units are designed to follow (replicate) the coded sequence,

generated by a manufacturer’s sync module. One (1) or more units can be triggered. Connect the output of the

FACP module to Input 1 and Input 2 Terminate the input circuit with the EOL or FACP, connecting it to terminals

marked [RET +] and [RET –], or continue the input circuit, connecting to terminals marked [RET +] and [RET –]

to [INP +] and [INP –] of the next unit, when multiple units need to be triggered.

In case FACP does not have any synchronization capabilities and the sync mode is not used,

the notification appliance synchronization will not be provided.

CAUTION: Do not connect any notification appliances on the control circuit interconnecting

FACP outputs (sync module outputs) and inputs of NAC Power Extenders. Applications that do

not employ synchronization module or FACP with synchronization protocol will not provide NAC

sycnchronization between NAC Power Extenders.

5. Synchronizing NAC Power Extender Using Built-in Sync Protocol:

AL602/AL802/1002ULADA(J)/R1002ULADA have built-in protocols to support Amseco, Gentex®, System

Sensor®, Wheelock® two-wire synchronizable devices, therefore an external sync module is not required (Output

Programming Selection Table, pg. 5). In these modes Input 1 is always used to activate visual notification appli-

ances (strobes) and Input 2 is used to activate and silence audible notification appliances (strobes).

Note: Input 1 has to be activated in all the configurations.

6. Using a Single FACP Output:

When only one FACP output is available, you may connect both Input 1 and Input 2 to it.

Wire [RET1 +] and [RET1 –] to [INP2 +] and [INP2 –].

Both visual and audible notification appliances will be activated simultaneously (Fig. 6a).

Follower Mode 12, 3

Output follows signal it receives from the corresponding

input (i.e. FACP Sync module - maintains synchronization of

notification appliance circuit).

Temporal Code 3 Mode 31, 2 Enables Temporal Code 3 signal generation output.

This mode will accept a steady or a pulsing input.

Steady Mode 1, 2, 3 A steady output signal will be generated.

This mode will accept steady or pulsing input.

For the above modes DIP Switch 4 determines which Input controls the

corresponding output:

Switch 4 in the ON position causes output(s) to be controlled by Input 1.

Switch 4 in the OFF position causes output(s) to be controlled by Input 2.
