Additional information about the specific control panel and the modules and detectors referenced in this document can be found in the
respective installation manual as listed in Section 1.1.1, “Reference Documentation”.
Currently, there are two styles of modules available, legacy version and newer version. The obvious difference between the two styles is
the orientation of the rotary dials. Refer to the diagram below for an example of each.

1.2 Overview
Communication between the control panel and intelligent addressable monitor and control devices takes place through a Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC), which can be wired to meet the requirements of NFPA Class A, Class B, or Class X.
At least one secondary surge protector must be used with each SLC wiring pair whenever SLC wiring runs outside the building. For
detailed information refer to “Surge Suppression” on page 65.
1.3 Polling Protocols

The MS-9200UDLS, MS-9600LS, MS-9600UDLS, ES-50X, and ES-200X support LiteSpeed protocol or Classic Loop Interface Proto-
col (CLIP). The MS-9200/E,MS-9600/E, MS-9200UD/E, and MS-9050UD support Classic Loop Interface Protocol (CLIP) only.
1.3.1 Available Protocols

LiteSpeed is a communication protocol that greatly enhances the speed of communication between analog intelligent devices. Only the
MS-9200UDLS, MS-9600LS, MS-9600UDLS, ES-50X, and ES-200X are capable of operating in LiteSpeed mode. This is the default
mode of operation for these FACPs.
CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) polls devices in sequential order. All Fire-LiteFireWarden addressable fire alarm control panels
can operate in CLIP mode. This is the default mode of operation for all other FACPs.
1.3.2 Protocol Use

Use one of the following options with LiteSpeed/CLIP mode:
1. Program all modules and detectors on an FACP as LiteSpeed.
2. Program all modules and detectors on an FACP as CLIP.
NOTE: FACPs with more than one SLC loop must be programmed for only LiteSpeed or CLIP mode of operation. Communication
protocols cannot be split between SLC loops.
When switching between polling protocols, the loop circuit must be powered down for at least 30 seconds to reset the devices.
1.4 Devices
1.4.1 Isolator Modules

“Polling Protocols”. Within those limits, the individual control panel may have additional restrictions. See the specific installation man-
ual for this information.
1.6 SLC Performance

SLC performance depends on the type of circuit (Class A, Class B, or Class X) and the components on the circuit.
NOTE: SLC operation meeting Class X requirements isolates each device on the SLC from faults that may occur within other areas of the
SLC.

Surge Suppression Introduction
Wiring Class requirements are determined by national and local codes. Consult with the Authority Having Jurisdiction before wiring the
SLC. The table below (derived from NFPA 72-1999) lists the trouble conditions that result when a fault exists on an SLC.
Type of Fault Class B Class A Class X
Single Open Trouble Alarm, Trouble Alarm, Trouble
Single Ground Alarm, Trouble (ground) Alarm, Trouble (ground) Alarm, Trouble (ground)
Short Trouble Trouble Alarm, Trouble
Short and open Trouble Trouble Trouble
Short and ground Trouble Trouble Alarm, Trouble
Open and ground Trouble Alarm, Trouble Alarm, Trouble
Communications loss Trouble Trouble Trouble
• Trouble - The control panel will indicate a trouble condition for this type of fault.
• Alarm - The control panel must be able to process an alarm input signal in the presence of this type of fault.
Table 1.1 SLC Performance
1.7 Surge Suppression

Section 2: Wiring Requirements
2.1 Wire Sizing
The SLC requires use of a specific wire type, depending on the mode of operation, to ensure proper circuit functioning. Wire size should
be no smaller than 18 AWG (0.75 mm2) and no larger than 12 AWG (3.25 mm2) wire. The wire size depends on the length of the SLC
circuit. It is recommended that all SLC wiring be twisted-pair to minimize the effects of electrical interference.
2.1.1 CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) Mode

All addressable FACPs can operate in CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) mode. It is recommended that all SLC wiring be twisted-
pair and shielded when operating in CLIP mode to reduce the effects of electrical interference. Use the table below to determine the spe-
cific wiring requirements for the SLC.

3.1 Overview
This chapter concerns itself with the two Classes of circuits that do not require isolation devices:
• NFPA Class B
• NFPA Class A
3.2 NFPA Class B SLC

NFPA Class B requirements can be met by using the diagram below.
• T-tapping of the SLC wiring is allowed for Class B configuration.

Section 4: SLC Circuits with Isolators
4.1 Fault Isolator Devices
There are three isolator devices used to protect critical elements of the SLC from faults on other SLC branches or segments.
• Fault Isolator Module I300
• Six Fault Isolator Module ISO-6
• Isolator Detector Base B224BI
A Fault Isolator Module on both sides of a device, or the combination of Isolator Base and Isolator Module is required to comply with
NFPA Class X requirements.
CAUTION: MAXIMUM ADDRESSABLE DEVICES

! • If relay or sounder bases are not used, a maximum of 25 addressable devices can be connected between Isolator Modules and/or
Bases. When relay or sounder bases are used, the maximum number of addressable devices that can be connected between Isolators
is reduced to seven. Isolator modules will not function properly when these limits are exceeded.
• When more than 100 Isolator Modules are connected to an SLC loop, the address capacity of the loop is reduced by two (2) addresses
for every isolator device in excess of 100.
4.1.1 Isolating an SLC Branch

The module continuously monitors the circuit connected to terminals 3(–) and 4(+). Upon power-up, an integral relay is latched on. The
module periodically pulses the coil of this relay. A short circuit on the SLC resets the relay. The module detects the short and disconnects
the faulted SLC branch or segment by opening the positive side of the SLC (terminal 4). This isolates the faulty branch from the remain-
der of the loop preventing a communication problem with all other addressable devices on the remaining branches (labeled “Continua-
tion of the SLC” in the figure below). During a fault condition, the control panel registers a trouble condition for each addressable device
which is isolated on the SLC segment or branch. Once the fault is removed, the module automatically reapplies power to the SLC branch
or segment.

4.3 NFPA Class A SLC Using Isolator Modules

A variation of Class A operation using isolator modules to protect a section of the SLC. By flanking each group of devices with an I300
fault isolator module, each group is protected from faults that may occur in the other groups. For example, a fault in Section B will not
effect Sections A & C. The isolator modules on either side of Section B will open the loop. Section A will still operate from power on the
SLC Out side and Section C will operate from the SLC Return side.
• A combination of isolator modules and isolator bases may be used.
• T-tapping is NOT allowed within the Class A configuration.
• Isolator modules shall be within 20 feet (6.1 meters) of device and must be enclosed in metal conduit.

Class X operation requires using isolator modules (or a combination of isolator modules and isolator bases) before and after each device.
Flanking each device with an isolator provides fault protection to all other devices on the loop.
• T-tapping is NOT allowed within the Class X wiring configuration.
• When a detector base or pull station is used, install isolator modules on both sides of the device.
• Connections between isolator modules and the device they isolate must be “close-nippled” conduit, within 3 feet (91.44 cm).

5.2.1 Setting an SLC address for a Single Point Module

Each module can be set to one of 159 addresses (01-159) and is factory preset with an address of “00”.
NOTE: The MS-9050UD and ES-50X can support addresses 01 - 50. The MS-9200, MS-9200UD, MS-9200UDLS, and ES-200X, can
support module addresses of 01 - 99. The MS-9600, MS-9600LS, and MS-9600UDLS can support module addresses 01 - 159. The plastic
stop located on the Tens switch must be removed to set addresses above 99.
To set an SLC address, use a screwdriver to adjust the rotary switches on the module to the desired address. The module below is set at
“35”. When finished, mark the address on the module face in the place provided.

Figure 5.7 Setting an SLC Address on a Single Point Module
5.2.2 Setting an SLC address for a Multi-Point Module

The SLC address of a multi-point module is set in the same fashion as a single-point module.
In Class B operation, each MMF-300-10, MMF-302-6, CMF-300-6, and CRF-300-6 module is set to a base address. The remaining
module points are automatically assigned to the next higher SLC addresses. For example, if the base address of an MMF-300-10 is set to
28, the next module points will be addressed to 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 and 37.
In Class A operation, alternate module points are paired together, resulting in a total of five module points. For example, if the base
address of an MMF-300-10 is set to 28, then 30, 32, 34 and 36 will be automatically assigned to the remaining module points and 29, 31,
33, 35 and 37 are available for use by other modules.
NOTE: The MS-9050UD and ES-50X can support addresses 01 - 50. The MS-9200, MS-9200UD, MS-9200UDLS, and ES-200X, can
support module addresses of 01 - 99. The MS-9600, MS-9600LS, and MS-9600UDLS can support module addresses 01 - 159. The plastic
stop located on the Tens switch must be removed to set addresses above 99.

6.4 CMF-300-6 Installation

6.4.1 Cabinet Installation
This type of module is contained in either a BB-2 cabinet. The BB-2 can accommodate up to 2 modules and the BB-6, which requires the
CH-6, can accommodate up to 6 modules.
6.4.2 Setting an SLC address for an CMF-300-6 Module

In “Class A” operation each CMF-300-6 module can be set to one of 154 base addresses (01-154). The remaining module points are
automatically assigned to the next five higher SLC addresses. For example, if the base address is set to 28, the next five module points
will be addressed to 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33.
In “Class A” operation alternate module points are paired together, resulting in a total of three module points. For example, if the base
address is set to 28, then 30 and 32 will be automatically assigned to the remaining module points and 29, 31 and 33 are available to be
used for other modules on the SLC.
NOTE: The MS-9050UD and ES-50X can support addresses 01 - 50. The MS-9200, MS-9200UD, MS-9200UDLS, and ES-200X can
support module addresses of 01 - 99. The MS-9600, MS-9600LS, MS-9600LSC, and MS-9600UDLS can support module addresses 01 -
159.
To set an SLC address, use a common screwdriver to adjust the rotary switches on the module to the desired address. See Figure 6.4 on
page 47.
NOTE: For use with the MS-9600, MS-9600LS, MS-9600LSC, and MS-9600UDLS, remove the stop on the upper rotary switch.
6.4.3 Setting NACs as Class B or Class A

To use this module for Class B operation ascertain that a small shunt is installed on the “A/B SELECT” set of pins. (As shipped).
To use this module for Class A operation remove the small shunt from the “A/B SELECT” set of pins. See drawing below and Figure 6.4
on page 47.
6.4.4 Disabling Unused Module Addresses

A shunt is used, in conjunction with a pin block, to disable a maximum of three (3) unused module

est two will be disabled. For example, if the shunt is placed on ‘DISABLE 2’ and the base address is set to
28, the module addresses will be assigned to 28, 29, 30 and 31.
In Class A operation, placing a small shunt on ‘DISABLE 3’ will disable all three addresses. Placing it on
‘DISABLE 2’ will disable two out of three addresses.
To disable addresses, securely place one of the supplied small shunts onto the desired set of pins. See draw-

6.4.5 Short Circuit Protection
Protection is disabled for each module address when there is a large shunt installed on the corresponding pins of the pin block (as
shipped, all six addresses are disabled).
When enabled, the module will not switch power supply if a short circuit condition exists on a NAC.
To enable “Short Circuit Protection” for an address, remove the large shunt from the corresponding pins of the pin block. See Figure 6.4

Appendix A: Power Considerations
A.1 Supplying Power to 24 VDC Detectors and NACs
A.1.1 Resistance and Size
To determine the minimum resistance that can be tolerated in supplying power to 24 VDC 4-wire devices and NACs, use the calculation
below. Use this resistance to select the proper gauge wire for the power run from the manufacturer’s specifications for the desired wire.
For Four-Wire Detectors:
(Vms - Vom)
Rmax =
(N)(Is) + (Na)(Ia) + (Ir)
For NACs:
(Vms - Vom)
Rmax =
(Nb)(Ib)
Where:
Rmax = maximum resistance of the 24 VDC wires
Vms = minimum supply voltage
Vom = minimum operating voltage of the detector or end-of-line relay, whichever is greater, in volts
N = total number of detectors on the 24 VDC supply circuit
Is = detector current in standby
Na = number of detectors on the 24 VDC power circuit which must function at the same time in alarm
Ia = detector current in alarm
Ir = end-of-line relay current
Nb = number of Notification Appliance Devices
Ib = Notification Appliance current when activated
NOTE: This simplified equation assumes that the devices are at the end of a long wire run.
The minimum supply voltages produced by Fire•Lite power supplies are listed below:

power run and wired in-line with the supervised circuit of any intelligent module.
24 VDC power must be provided from a UL-listed power supply for fire protection use.
When power is removed from the relay, the normally closed contacts open the supervised circuit, generating a trouble condition. There-
fore, the relay needs to be installed at the end of the supervised circuit, so it will not disrupt the operating capability of all the devices on
that circuit. The relay can be installed in-line with any leg (+ or –) of the supervised NAC circuit, either a Class B or a Class A circuit.
The drawing below illustrates this concept.

NOTE: For detailed information, refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the unit.
One primary surge protector must be used with each SLC wiring pair whenever SLC wiring runs outside the building.
• Install primary protection only as shown in this document.
• Refer to NEC Article 800 and local building code requirements.
Additional primary surge suppressors may be added as required by the NEC. Add these additional suppressors in series with the SLC
wiring at the building entry/exit.
Wiring connected to the surge suppressor output must remain within the building while wiring connected to the surge suppressor input
may be routed outside the building as shown below.

UL-listed SLC Device ULC-listed SLC Device Description

I300 I300A The Fault Isolator Module protects the system against wire-to-wire short circuits on the SLC. It
should be placed between groups of sensors in a Class A or Class X SLC to isolate short- and
open-circuit problems and protect the rest of the loop so it can continue to operate normally. It is
not addressable, but listed here due to its use in an SLC.
ISO-6 ISO-6A The Six Fault Isolator Module protects the system against wire-to-wire short circuits on six
isolated SLC circuits. Functionally the same as six I300(A) modules.
