Noti cation/Release Circuits
The output circuits of the VFR-400 are Non-coded. This allows the use of visual and audible appliances on the same circuit. If
temporal noti cation appliances are required for evacuation, selectable tone appliances such as the AMSECO H24W horn or
SH24W Series strobe/horns or a temporal module such as AMSECO TMP1-3A or equivalents should be used.
The noti cation outputs do not provide synchronization. If synchronization is required, use AMSECO SMD10-3A
synchronization module or equivalent, as identi ed on page 55. The noti cation appliances shall be compatible with the sync
module selected. The current requirements of the appliances, wire gauge, and length of wire run determine the maximum
number of appliances that can be connected to one NAC and/or sync module. The maximum cannot exceed 1 amp or whatever
the sync module selected can support, whichever is lower. The sync module shall be installed as per manufacturers instructions.
Equivalent sync modules are shown on page 55.

Low/Missing Battery
Causes battery and system trouble if battery falls below 22 volts. Battery circuit is fused and reverse polarity protection is provided.
Input Power
• Universal Input 120VAC, (60 Hz, 165VA) or 220VAC, (50 Hz, 185VA) 15 Amp Branch Line overcurrent
protection required.
• System trouble is also generated if voltage drops below 102V.
Backup Power Requirements
• VFR-400 - Standby 121 mA, alarm 274 mA at 24VDC
