The suggested values for R1 and R2 are as follows:
R1 = 15K Ω 1%, 1W (maximum power dissipated is 47mW at 26.4V)
R2 = 3K9 Ω 1%, 1W (maximum power dissipated is 182mW at 26.4V)
Suggested threshold values for both of the above circuits are as follows:
Threshold ID
Value (mV)

Threshold 8
=
19000
Threshold 7
=

ON (nominal 16V)
Threshold 6
=
11000
Threshold 5
=
10500
INDETERMINATE
Threshold 4
=
6500
Threshold 3
=
6000
OFF (nominal 8V)
Threshold 2
=
3500
Threshold 1

3000
OPEN CIRCUIT
Assumptions:
Loop supply voltage = 24V ± 10%
Maximum Field Cable Line Resistance: < 100 Ω total; this means < 50 + 50 Ω for
the two cables.
Minimum Isolation is 0.75M Ω between the field loop conductors.
These values will allow the input to detect more accurately different voltage levels
that represent OPEN CCT - OFF - ON - SHORT CCT and will also detect Over
Voltage and an input which is neither ON or OFF. The values ensure that a line
fault will be declared before it becomes possible for a false declaration of On and
Off states due to a combination of resistor value drift and loop voltage variation.
The F&G circuit will also allow two devices to be in alarm without reporting short
circuit.
All of the input circuits are suitable for simplex, dual and TMR configurations.
The F&G circuit assumes that the devices are volt-free contacts.
For further information, please refer to application note AN-T90001 Field Loop
Configuration. This also includes advice for fire detectors which are not simple volt
free contacts.
