bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions (caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).
Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm only
when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate or
reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may be
subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rate-ofrise feature of each detector should be tested at least once per year
by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are designed
to protect property, not life.
IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same room
as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signaling, and/or
power. If detectors are not so located, a developing fire may damage
the alarm system, crippling its ability to report a fire.
Audible warning devices such as bells may not alert people if these
devices are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors or
are located on another floor of a building. Any warning device may
fail to alert people with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol or medication. Please note that:
Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a fire
alarm signal, do not respond or comprehend the meaning of the signal.
It is the property owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other
training exercise to make people aware of fire alarm signals and
instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.
In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause temporary or permanent hearing loss.
Smoke particles may become cold, stratify, and not reach the ceiling
or upper walls where detectors are located.
Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching the
detector.
A fire alarm system will not operate without any electrical power. If
AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries only for
a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly maintained and replaced regularly.

Installation Precautions
Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected
to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of power
before servicing. The control unit and associated equipment may be
damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install,
service, or operate this unit until this manual is read and understood.
CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test after Software Changes.
To ensure proper system operation, this product must be tested in
accordance with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or
change in site-specific software. Reacceptance testing is required
after any change, addition or deletion of system components, or after
any modification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.
All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions
known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested. In addition,
to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least
10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change,
up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also be tested and proper system operation verified.
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0C to 49C
(32F to 120F) and at a relative humidity 93% 2% RH (noncondensing) at 32C 2C (90F 3F). However, the useful life of the
system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be
adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity.
Therefore, it is recommended that this system and all peripherals be
installed in an environment with a nominal room temperature of 1527 C/60-80 F.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating
device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R.
drop from the specified device voltage.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate
erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning-induced
transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning
transients and interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an
increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the
Technical Services if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or inserting
circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.
Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling, filing, reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make all cable
entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that
they will not interfere with battery, transformer, and printed circuit
board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. Over-tightening
may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact pressure
and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
Though designed to last many years, system components can fail
at any time. This system contains static-sensitive components.
Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any
circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use staticsuppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies removed from
the unit.
Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and programming manuals. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage
to the control panel and associated equipment. FACP operation and
reliability depend upon proper installation by authorized personnel.
FCC Warning
WARNING: This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for class A computing device
pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which is
designed to provide reasonable protection against such
interference when operated in a commercial environment.

1 General
All cabinets are fabricated from 16 gauge steel. The cabinet consists of two basic components: a backbox and a locking
door.
The key-locked door is provided with a pin-type hinge, two keys, and the necessary hardware to mount the door to the
backbox. The backbox has been engineered to provide ease-of-entry for the installer. Knockouts are positioned at
numerous points to let the installer bring conduit into the enclosure easily. Doors can be mounted on the left or right-hand
side. The same hinge works in both configurations, so that this choice can be made in the field. The door opens 180.
Cabinets are available in four (4) sizes, A through D. The outside dimensions are noted on each enclosure diagram. "A"
size accommodates one chassis, a power supply, and two 26 AH batteries; "D" size accommodates four chassis, a power
supply, and two 26 AH batteries. A trim ring option is available for semi-flush mounting. The CAB-3/CAB-4 Series is
compatible with multiple chassis including the CHS-M2, CHS-M3, CHS-4, CHS-4L, CHS-4N, CHS-BH, CHS-PS, CA-1,
and CA-2. Note: CAB-4 series backboxes and doors are sold separately.
Insert door hinges (A) into the top and bottom slots of the side to be hinged (in this case the LEFT side). Secure the
hinges to the studs in the backbox with the #8 hex nuts provided. Note that the small hole on the outer tab faces
