Introduction to the 4100ES Fire Alarm System Introduction The 4100ES is an expandable fire alarm system that can be used as a standalone system with one host panel, or as a wide-ranging system with several remote back boxes, with or without multiple host panels.
System configurations Overview The 4100ES is available as a standalone system with one host panel, or as an expansive system with several remote back boxes, with or without multiple host panels. The type of configuration used depends on the size of the site into which it is being installed.
If a small building is being expanded, or if other buildings are being constructed in the same general area (as in a campus application), the standalone 4100ES can be expanded into one of the larger systems described later.
MINIPLEX configuration Overview The MINIPLEX version of the 4100ES Fire Alarm System, which is designed for moderately larger applications than the standalone configuration, allows up to 2000 monitor and/or control points and 2000 annunciator points to be controlled by a single FACP.
4100ES power and data from the CPU may have to be routed over long distances in a MINIPLEX system. An RUI line, routed from either the CPU in the 4100ES or the RUI card in the 4100ES, allows the power and data to travel longer distances. Once the RUI line terminates at a remote box, the TIC (4100ES) or RIC (4100) at that box distributes the CPU’s power and...
The 4100ES can be expanded to a network system by using network interface cards (NICs). When a NIC is installed into a 4100ES host panel, it is used to connect to up to 98 other network nodes. Nodes may consist of other host 4100ES panels, or they may be completely...

Chapter 8 EPS and IDNet 2 Wiring EPS Wiring Overview General Wiring • Conductors must test free of all grounds. Guidelines • 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.
IDNAC wire length limitations dictate the maximum audio NAC wire run length between a TrueAlert ES speaker and the connected 4100ES amplifier. The maximum IDNAC wire run length from the EPS to a device, with a Repeater extension is 8,000 feet. Because the maximum distance between the amplifier and the EPS is 2500 feet over RUI/RUI+, the total allowable distance between the amplifier and the TrueAlert ES device speaker is 10,500 feet.
NAC. Speakers must be wired in a standard Class A loop fashion. Except as noted above, audio NAC wiring connected to TrueAlert ES speakers must follow the requirements of the connected 4100ES amplifier. Ferrite Beads Ferrite beads must be used for Class B wiring.
Chapter 8 EPS and IDNet 2 Wiring EPS Wiring Tables Class B Wiring Use the following tables to calculate the load. Tables TrueAlert ES Speakers and Speaker/Visible appliances must use Table 8-4 in place of Table 8-2.

Command Center to investigate the signal and make the appropriate announcement. A variety of devices can be connected to a Simplex 4100ES via an individual addressable module (IAM). The IAM should be programmed as a priority 2 device, or other non-fire alarm point.
The programming for an MNS is not special; it can be accomplished using priority, modes, and 4100ES to Meet Custom Control. Any technician who has attended training and become a certified 4100ES Fire Alarm Technician should be capable of programming the 4100ES for MNS combined with Fire Requirements Alarm service.
The primary solution for controlling and activating voice messages on a Simplex fire alarm Centers network is utilizing the standard 4100ES LED and Switch user interface along with a microphone for live voice announcements. In the example below the operator first selects the destination for a message on the left and then selects the audio source or pre-recorded message to play on the right.
MNS Wiring The 4100ES field wiring is “power-limited”, with the exception of AC input, battery and the City Circuit option module wiring. For MNS, the term “power limited” has been replaced by the NEC term “class 2”. Wherever this document uses the UL864 term “power limited”, it can be taken to mean class 2.

Overview This appendix contains instructions on how to use the Earth Fault Search feature of the 4100ES diagnostics menus. The minimum Earth Fault detection level for the 4100ES is 10k ohms for all circuits. Earth Fault Search is a diagnostic search of external field wiring that assists in locating circuits with earth faults.
Page 236
At the completion of the search, all slaves are restarted and normal panel operation resumes. • Earth Fault Search is only supported by new 4100ES modules. 4100 Legacy (slot format) modules are not supported, with the following exceptions: - MAPNET channel isolation during location search - IPS for earth fault detection (not recommended).
