How do I add a remote annunciator to the MS-9600?
To add a remote annunciator to the MS-9600, you must wire the communication and power lines, set a unique hardware address, and enable the device in the FACP programming menu. The panel supports ANN-BUS devices (like the ANN-80), Terminal Mode devices (LCD-80F), and ACS Mode devices (ACM/AFM series) [1].
-
Power Down: Disconnect all AC and battery power from the FACP before wiring [1].
-
Wire Communication: For ANN-BUS devices, connect FACP ANN-BUS A and B to annunciator terminals 3 and 4 [1].
For Terminal Mode (LCD-80F), use TB7; for ACS Mode (ACM/AFM), use TB6 (Page 12) [1].
-
Wire Power: Connect 24 VDC non-resettable power from the FACP (TB3) or a remote UL-listed power supply to the annunciator power terminals, observing proper polarity (Page 10, 49) [1].
-
Set Addressing: For ANN-BUS devices, use the 5-position DIP switch to set a unique ID from 01 to 08 (Page 47) [1].
For ACM/AFM or LCD-80F, use the rotary switches to set the required address (Page 21, 42) [1].
-
Enable in Programming: Navigate to the Option Modules menu and select Annunciators/UDACT. Set the corresponding mode (Term Enabled, ACS Enabled, or ANN-BUS Options) to YES (Page 97, 106) [1].
-
Verify: The FACP will supervise the new device; ensure no "Annunciator Fault" or "Terminal Fault" appears on the display [1].
