Installation
ANN-BUS Devices
Exception: When using the ANN-RLY module, the installer must ensure that the maximum
24VDC power line drop does not exceed 0.3 volts. This results in the following wiring limitations:
Wiring Distance Calculation Example:
Suppose a system is configured with the following ANN-BUS modules:
•
3 ANN-80 Remote Fire Annunciators
•
1 ANN-S/PG Serial/Parallel Printer Interface Module
•
1 ANN-I/O LED Driver Module
The total worst case current is calculated as follows:
Using this value and referring to the Wiring Distance Table 2.1 on page 37, it can be found that the
available options are:
463 feet maximum using 22 Gauge wire
1,172 feet maximum using 18 Gauge wire
1,866 feet maximum using 16 Gauge wire
2,953 feet maximum using 14 Gauge wire

ANN-80 Current Draw
= 3 X 0.040 amps
= 0.120 amps
ANN-S/PG Current Draw
= 1 X.0.040 amps
= 0.040 amps
ANN-I/O Current Draw
= 1 X.0.200 amps
= 0.200 amps
Total Worst Case Current Draw
= 0.360 amps
