Cautions and Warnings

Cautions and READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS- Follow the instructions in this installation
Warnings manual. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage to this product and associated
equipment. Product operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.

DO NOT INSTALL ANY SIMPLEX® PRODUCT THAT APPEARS DAMAGED- Upon


unpacking your Simplex product, inspect the contents of the carton for shipping damage. If
damage is apparent, immediately file a claim with the carrier and notify an authorized
Simplex product supplier.
ELECTRICAL HAZARD - Disconnect electrical field power when making any internal adjust-
ments or repairs. All repairs should be performed by a representative or authorized agent of
your local Simplex product supplier.

STATIC HAZARD - Static electricity can damage components. Handle as follows:


• Ground yourself before opening or installing components.
• Prior to installation, keep components wrapped in anti-static material at all times.

EYE SAFETY HAZARD - Under certain fiber optic application conditions, the optical output
of this device may exceed eye safety limits. Do not use magnification (such as a microscope
or other focusing equipment) when viewing the output of this device.

FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS – PART 15 - This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of
this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the
user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

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.

Introduction to the Remote Command Center

Overview The 4100-1292 Remote Command Center (RCC) provides annunciation and limited system
control for remote areas. The RCC’s LCD can display any alarm, trouble or supervisory condition.
The RCC also provides basic user capabilities, such as system reset, alarm, and acknowledgment
for supervisory and trouble indications.

The RCC consists of the following general parts:

• An LCD assembly with a membrane keypad. The keypad has 11 switches and 10 LEDs.
• A CPU memory card assembly that connects to the LCD assembly via two headers.
• An internal mounting plate assembly.
• An external panel mounting plate.

Figure 1, below, is an exploded diagram of the RCC, with an illustration of the operator interface.

Mounting

Overview The RCC can be installed into a standard 2975-94xx Back Box (4100U or 4100ES).

1. Ensure that the entire assembly is intact according to Figure 1.


2. Align the six captive mounting screws on the 637-414 Panel Mounting Plate with six
mounting holes on the front chassis of the back box.
3. Push the mounting plate toward the cabinet so that the captive mounting screws go
through the mounting holes.
4. Secure the mounting plate to the back box front chassy using six #6 lockwashers
(268-009) and six #6 nuts (322-123).

Wiring

Overview This section contains guidelines and instructions for connecting the RCC to power and
communication wiring.

General Guidelines Make sure these guidelines are accounted for before wiring:

• All wires must be 18 AWG, or as the local code dictates.


• Conductors must test free of all grounds.
• All wiring must be done using copper conductors only, unless noted otherwise.
• If shielded wire is used,
- the metallic continuity of the shield must be maintained throughout the entire cable
length.
- the entire length of the cable must have a resistance greater than 1 Megohm to earth
ground.
• Underground wiring must be free of all water.
• In areas of high lightning activity, or in areas that have large power surges, the
2081-9027 Transient Suppressor should be used on monitor points.
• Wires must not be run through elevator shafts.
• Wires that run in plenum must be in conduit.
• Splicing is permitted. All spliced connections must either be soldered (resin-core solder),
crimped in metal sleeves, or encapsulated with an epoxy resin. When soldering or
crimped metal sleeves are used, the junction must be insulated with a high-grade
electrical tape that is as sound as the original insulating jacket. Shield continuity must be
maintained throughout.
• A system ground must be provided for earth detection and lightning protection devices.
This connection must comply with approved earth detection per NFPA780.
• Only system wiring can be run together in the same conduit.
• Excess slack should be kept to a minimum inside the back box enclosure. The wiring
should be neatly dressed and bundled together using the wire ties provided with the
equipment. Anchor power-limited wiring to tie points.

Notes:
• If Class B wiring is used, jumper TB1-2 to TB1-5 and TB1-4 to TB1-7 using the
733-716 Harness.
• If Class A wiring is used, Harness 733-716 is removed, and the second pair (shown
with dashed lines) is used.
