Features Flex 404 Four-Zone Fire Alarm Control Panel Description The Gamewell Flex 404 Fire Alarm Control Panel brings the latest in microprocessor technology to conventional fire controls. The Flex 404 is compatible with the new i³ ™ smoke detectors from System Sensor, and provides advanced features including drift compensation, maintenance alert, and freeze warning. Automatic synchronization of audio/visual devices is provided, selectable for three manufacturers’ protocols. The NAC protocol includes the ability, using a single pair of wires, to silence audible devices while strobes continue to flash. The Flex 404 is also compatible with conventional input devices such as twoand four-wire smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices, tamper switches and other normally-open contact devices. Operation The activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire alarm initiating device will: activate audible and visual signaling devices, illuminate an indicating LED, sound the piezo sounder at the FACP, activate the FACP alarm relay, and operate an optional module which notifies a remote station or initiates an auxiliary control function. i³™ Technology Features • Drift compensation automatically adjusts detector sensitivity and increases resistance to false alarms caused by dust accumulation. • The maintenance alert LEDs (per zone) warn of excessive dirt accumulation, preventing false alarms. • Detector sensitivity is automatically measured. The twice-yearly test requirements of NFPA 72 (7-3.2.1) are met without using a ladder or test meter. • The wireless handheld sensitivity meter eliminates the need for voltmeters, magnets, or a physical connection to the detector. The reader displays sensitivity in terms of percent-per-foot obscuration and provides text status indication. • The supervisory LED (per zone) provides a warning if a detector senses temperatures approaching freezing. • Special test protocol and LED indication allow a quick test of all detectors — without a ladder. • Electronic heat-sensing element provides thermal detection in addition to photoelectronic smoke detection. • Four Style B (Class B) Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs); two Style Y (Class B) Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs); optional module (P/ N CAC-4) converts 4 IDCs and two NACs to Class A. 24 VDC. • NAC synchronization features: – Provides synchronization of standard ANSI audible signals as required by NFPA 72 (3-8.4.1.2.3). – Provides synchronization of ADA compliant strobes per NFPA 72 (4-4.4.1). – Selectable for System Sensor, CooperWheelock,& Gentex protocols. – Selective Silence feature allows manual silencing of horns while strobes continue to flash on the same NAC. • Silent or Audible Walk Test operation mode commanded from the front keypad, with automatic return to normal after one hour of inactivity. • Alarm verification selectable per zone. • Each zone may be programmed for supervisory or fire; each zone has separate red and yellow LEDs. • Disable switches provided for each zone. • NACs programmable for: Silence Inhibit, Auto Silence, Strobe Synchronization, Selective Silence (horn/strobe mute), Temporal or Steady signal, Silenceable or Nonsilenceable. • Form-C Alarm, Trouble, and Supervisory relays. • 3.0 A (6.0 A with optional second transformer) total usable current. • Piezo sounder for alarm, trouble, supervisory, and maintenance. • Control buttons: ACK (Acknowledge), Alarm Silence, Reset, Walktest, Zone Enable/Disable (one per zone). • LED indicators: Fire Alarm (one per zone), Supervisory (one per zone), Trouble (one per zone), Maintenance (one per zone), AC Power, NAC Disable, Zone Disable, NAC Fault, System Trouble, Power Trouble, Walktest, Alarm Silence, Earth Fault (on circuit board), Battery Fault (on circuit board), Charger Fault (on circuit board). • Optional dress panel (P/N DP-FLEX). • Optional modules: plug-in transmitter module (P/N 4XTMF); plug-in zone relay module (P/N 4XZMF); transmitter module (P/N 4XLMF) for SAN-404 remote LED annunciator.
