Serial Annunciator Driver

Description

The 600 Series serial annunciator driver (SAN) is used to

light a lamp or LED in an annunciator. It also provides a

switched positive output per point for interface with building

automation systems or driving relays. Each device is capa-

ble of interpreting the instructions from the main CPU, initi-

ating its own programmed response, and retransmitting the

instructions to the next device.

The Gamewell-FCI 600 systems can accommodate up to

64 devices connected to the serial communications port. In

addition to the serial annunciator drives (SAN), these

devices include remote annunciator (RAN) and remote

printer interface (RPI). This combination of devices com-

prise the Gamewell-FCI status control network. Since each

device contains its own microprocessor, each can be pro-

grammed independently. A series of devices can be pro-

grammed directly over the network from a single device,

saving valuable installation time. Programming is accom-

Each SAN input point can activate up to five output points

for matrix annunciation. There are two basic models avail-

able, the SAN and the SAN-RC. The SAN-16 is equipped

with 16 freely programmable outputs which can be used for

remote control or monitoring, expandable to 128 points

using PDM modules.

The SAN-16-RC has all of the features of the SAN-16, plus

the ability to read inputs into the system. The SAN-16-RC

has provisions for four inputs for: remote acknowledge,

reset, signal silence, and lamp test. In addition to the basic

16 outputs, there are eight (8) common outputs for: com-

mon system alarm, common system trouble, AC power,

communications, action required LED prompts for system

acknowledge, reset and signal silence, and a driver for a

local audible.

The status control network, including SAN units, is con-

nected to the main 600 Series control panel via an RS-232

data communication line. The SIM-232 module is used to
