62 MRP-2002 Series Instruction Manual — P/N 53049:E5 7/28/2016Programming Master Programming Level NAC remains on steady until all zones of the cross-zoned group go into alarm Release Circuit going into Pre-discharge or Discharge state (at any time) causes the NAC toturn off. All other NACs will operate as programmed.When using this coding protocol at least one other NAC must be programmed for one of thefollowing: Cross-Zone (see above), Release Stage Coded (see page 85), Release Stage Pre-Discharge (see page 85), or Release Stage Discharge (see page 85).• Cross-Zone Discharge for Release Circuit 1 or Release Circuit 2: 1st zone of cross-zoned group in alarm causes programmed NAC output to turn on steady NAC remains on steady when all zones of the cross-zoned group go into alarm and duringPre-discharge Release Circuit going into Discharge state (at any time) causes the NAC to turn off. Allother NACs will operate as programmed.When using this coding protocol at least one other NAC must be programmed for one of thefollowing: Cross-Zone (see above), Release Stage Coded (see page 85), Release Stage Pre-Discharge (see page 85), or Release Stage Discharge (see page 85).• Synchronized output for System Sensor, Wheelock, Gentex, Faraday or Amseco - Refer to“Synchronized NAC Operation” on page 62 for additional information.Selection of one of the above options will cause the control panel to store the information inmemory and return the display to Output Screen #1, which will display the new coding choice. Synchronized NAC OperationSynchronization is a panel feature that controls the activation of notification appliances in such away that all horns and strobes will turn on and off at exactly the same time. This is particularlycritical when activating strobes which must be synchronized to avoid random activation and apotential hazard or confusion. The FACP can be programmed to operate with a variety ofmanufacturer’s devices.Maximum Number of Strobes for SynchronizationThe maximum current draw for a Notification Appliance Circuit cannot exceed 3.0 amps. Refer tothe manufacturer’s documentation supplied with the Strobes to determine the maximum currentdraw for each strobe and ensure that the circuit maximum is not exceeded.To ensure proper strobe and circuit operation, there is also a limit to the number of strobes that canbe attached to each circuit. Following is a list of the strobes that have been tested with this FACPand the maximum number that can be connected to each NAC. Make sure that the NAC maximumcurrent is not exceeded: System Sensor: 46 Strobes Wheelock: 50 Strobes Gentex: 39 Strobes Faraday: 33 Strobes Amseco: 34 StrobesRefer to the Device Compatibility Document for a list of compatible devices.NOTE: If the Output Circuit has been programmed as a Releasing Circuit, the Coding Option willnot be available and the display will indicate N/A next to it.NOTES:1. The NAC1 output can be used to synchronize notification appliances connected to externalpanels such as remote power supplies (wire NAC1 to the power supply sync input).2. For Dual Hazard applications, NAC circuits are not synchronized across hazard areas.
