Section 1
Introduction

The 5495 is a notification appliance circuit and auxiliary power expander that
provides up to 6 amps of filtered, 24 volt power for powering notification appliances
and auxiliary devices. The 5495 provides its own AC power connection, battery
charging circuit, and battery connections. Used with security and fire alarm control
panels, the 5495 enables you to connect and distribute power to many more devices
than your panel may normally allow.

Input Configurations

The 5495 has two optically isolated signaling inputs that provide the signal
connection from the main control panel to the 5495 (see Section 3.2 for more
details).

Output Configurations

The 5495 has four power-limited notification appliance circuits that can be
configured in various combinations of Class A and Class B circuits (see Section
3.3 for details).

Auxiliary Power Configurations

The 5495 has a dedicated, power-limited, auxiliary output that can be configured
in two different ways. The auxiliary output can either be non-resettable (always
on), or configured to switch off during the AC power failure to conserve the battery
standby power. When the auxiliary power is configured to switch off, there is a 30
second delay before the auxiliary power is turned off after the AC power fails (see
Section 4.8.4 for details).

Form C Trouble Relay

The 5495 includes a general trouble relay that will de-energize for any trouble
situation. (see Section 4.4.1 for details).

Earth Fault Detection

The 5495 monitors for earth faults to the system power or system ground. When
detected, the system de-energizes the trouble relay and the input supervision
relays (see Section 5.2 for details).

ANSI Temporal Code

The 5495 provides two configuration options that will drive outputs with the ANSI
temporal code if the inputs are on constantly (see Section 4.8.1 for details).

Supports Synchronized appliances

The 5495 provides configuration options that will eliminate the need for
synchronized modules when using AMSECO, Faraday, Gentex, System Sensor,
or Wheelock synchronization appliances.
