SAFETY SUMMARY
This entire manual must be read and understood before installation.
Installation PrecautionsAdherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with longterm reliability:
Several different sources of power can be connected to this fire alarm control unit.
Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated
equipment may be damaged by servicing while the unit is energized. Do not
attempt to install, service, or operate this control unit until this manual is read
and understood.
WARNING
System Re-acceptance Test after Re-Programming: To ensure proper system operation, this
system must be retested in accordance with NFPA 72 Chapter 10 after any
programming change. Re-acceptance testing is also required after any addition or
deletion of system components, and after any modification, repair or adjustment to
system hardware or wiring.
CAUTION All components, circuits and system operations known to be affected by a change must
be 100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently
affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change,
up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also be tested and proper system operation
verified.
This system meets FM and ANSI/UL 864 requirements for operation at 32 to 120F (0 to 49C) and at a
relative humidity of 93% (non-condensing) @ 90F (32.2C). However, the useful life of the systems
standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely effected by continuous operation at
these environmental limits. Therefore, it is recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed
in an environment with a nominal room temperature of 60-80F.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be damaged when
subjected to lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning
transients and interference, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. The use of overhead or outside
aerial wiring is not recommended due to the increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes.
Consult with the Technical Support Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
Do not install electronic assemblies prior to mounting and attaching conduit for field wiring to the enclosure.
Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery and printed circuit board
locations. Do not overtighten screw terminals. Overtightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced
terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before
handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static suppressive packaging
to protect electronic assemblies removed from the control unit.
Follow the instructions in this manual. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage to the control
unit and associated equipment. System operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.
Fire Alarm System Limitations While installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance
rates possible, it is not a substitute for fire insurance!
An automatic fire alarm system typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations,
notification appliances, and a fire alarm control unit with remote-notification capability can provide early warning
of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life
resulting from a fire.
Any fire alarm system may fail for a variety of reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in walls,
on roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors on one level also may not sense a fire on

Control Switches
There are four Control Switches on the Operator Interface. They are:
Acknowledge Silences the buzzer which sounds when a new supervisory, alarm, or
trouble is detected. Holding this control switch for five seconds, activates the control unit
Lamp Test. This control switch is also used in conjunction with the System Reset control
switch to enter the configuration mode.
Note: Microprocessor and PCB troubles are latching and cannot be silenced or reset. Refer to
Chapter 6, Troubleshooting.
August 2007
System Reset Disconnects power from all input and output circuits and the auxiliary
output for a period of five (5) seconds. This control switch is also used in conjunction with
the Acknowledge control switch to enter the configuration mode.
Output Disable Disables the release of agent, and as selected in the system
configuration, the activation of NAC outputs and/or Programmable Relays. This is used
when performing maintenance on the system.

The three digit display is used for the following:
1-4.3.1.4
Buzzer
The buzzer will sound when an alarm, trouble or supervisory condition is present.
1-4.3.2
1-4.3.2.1
Detection Inputs
The control unit provides two dedicated initiating/detector input circuits, plus a third that can
be used as a Waterflow alarm or an independent initiating/detector input. Inputs from these
circuits are latching. Refer to Chapter 3, Configuration for configuration settings.
Certain jurisdictions require NAC outputs due to Waterflow input to be non-silenceable. The
configuration settings in Chapter 3, Configuration allows the user to select the specific mode
needed for a given application.
Each detector circuit is suitable for Class A or Class B wiring and is capable of operating with
up to 25 smoke/electronic heat detectors and a quantity of contact-closure type devices (up to
the limitation imposed by wiring resistance). For a list of compatible devices, refer to
Appendix B.
1-4.3.2.2
Manual Release
Operation of a manual release pull station activates the NACs and initiates the release
sequence. The configured time delay and agent release output is activated after the site
configured time delay. Manual release overrides any other time delay. The circuit is suitable
for either Class A or Class B wiring and any quantity of contact closure type manual release
stations subject to the limitations imposed by the wiring resistance. The manual release will
also override any activated abort switch.
1-4.3.2.3
Abort
Activation of the abort station temporarily delays the impending agent release. Operation of
the abort switch during non-alarm conditions will cause a trouble signal. However, if the Abort
switch is pressed and held during either a non-alarm condition or during a first alarm condition,
and remains held until an alarm pre-release condition exists occurs, the Abort function will
execute as normal, per the configuration setting. The following abort modes are configurable.
Abort Mode 1 (ANSI/UL 864) - When the abort input is received, the release timeout
continues and stops at ten (10) seconds. If the timeout was less than ten (10) seconds when
the abort signal is received, timeout is reset to ten (10) seconds. When the abort is released,
the timeout resumes. Successive aborts are permitted.
P/N 06-236716-001
1-7
August 2007
General Information
Abort Mode 2 (Reset) - When abort is activated, the timer is stopped and the full delay is
loaded into it. The timeout begins when the Abort control switch is released. Successive aborts
are permitted. If Mode 2 is selected with a zero (0) abort delay, the abort is disabled. Mode 2
does not comply with ANSI/UL 864s.
Abort Mode 3 (IRI) - This mode is only valid for cross-zoned release when both initiating
inputs are needed to cause the agent release activation (if selected for single zone, the abort
will be disabled). This mode is similar to Mode 1 with the exception that the abort will function
only if held after the receipt of the first alarm, but prior to the receipt of the second alarm.
Abort activation at any other time is ignored.
Abort Mode 4 (New York City) When the abort is activated, the timer is stopped and reset
to 120 seconds. The timer will not start as long as the Abort switch is held. The timeout restarts
when the Abort switch is released. Successive Abort switch operations resets the timer back to
the full 120 second delay. Selection of this mode does not have an over-ruling effect on any
programmed manual or auto-release delays, regardless of whether an abort has actually
occurred. In this mode, the delay from a manual release is forced to zero (0), and the autorelease delay is restricted to a maximum of 30 seconds. NYC Mode does not comply with
ANSI/UL 864.
WARNING
The setting of non-compliant delays with New York City Abort is not errortrapped or over-ruled by the control unit.
SUPERVISORY INPUTS
The Supervisory Circuits accept inputs from monitoring devices such as pressure switches on
agent cylinders or sprinkler systems.

General Information
Continuous
The three circuits are supervised, power-limited, and are compatible with conventional UL
listed, 24 Vdc notification appliances. They can also be used with the following synchronizable
horns and strobes:
NS series horn/strobes
NH series horns
The MT and NS series network appliances provide the option to use silencable horns and nonsilenceable strobes on the same NAC.
Multiple NAC circuits (connected to audible devices only) programmed with the same master
code pattern are synchronized, regardless of any differing starting times that preceded their
concurrent operation.
The control unit is designed for user selection of an intelligent synchronization feature. This
feature allows the silenceable horn to be shut off while the strobe continues to flash in
synchronized fashion. Each NAC is rated 1.5A at 24 Vdc and is suitable for polarized 24 Vdc
appliances only.
The maximum number of synchronized devices is 35.

Programmable Relays
The three programmable relays are normally in the de-energized condition and will energize
upon receipt of one of the following listed conditions. These relays will latch on change of state
and shall remain latched until manually reset by the System Reset control switch.
Note: DET 3/WF will only be active if its part of the activation condition.

Trouble Relay
The trouble relay is "normally energized with AC Power ON and will de-energize upon receipt
of a trouble condition. This change is non-latching and the relay will revert to its normal state
upon removal of the trouble state. For Central Station operation, especially with an intermittent
AC power supply, it may be desirable to delay the change of state of the trouble relay in case
of AC power failure. See Chapter 3, Configuration to enable this configuration.

1. Ensure that the enclosure is semi-flush mounted as directed in Paragraph 2-3.1.2.
2. Prepare the surface of the wall for trim-ring installation by clearing all dirt and debris within
1-1/2 inches (38 mm) of the back-box perimeter. Ensure that this perimeter area is clean
and dry.
3. Install the trim ring by first removing the protective strips that cover the adhesive tape on
its back surface. Slip the trim ring over the back box with the adhesive-tape side toward
the wall. The trim ring has tabs on both sides that aid in aligning it with the back box. Press
all sides of the trim ring to the wall when it is correctly aligned and plumb with the back
box.

WARNING
2-3.4.1
Use caution when connecting AC power to the control unit. High-voltage and
AC-powered circuits are present in the control unit. Be sure to take suitable
precautions and to adequately ground the control unit to reduce the risk of
electrical shock.
CONNECTING AC POWER
AC power must be provided to the control unit using a 3-conductor 14 AWG cable. The AC
power cable shall be run through a one-inch conduit from a dedicated, 15-ampere circuit
breaker. The conduit must be attached to the left side of the enclosure through one of the
upper left corner knockouts.
Perform the following steps to connect AC power to the control unit.
1. Ensure the circuit breaker at the dedicated AC power source is in the OFF position.
2. To ensure correct AC supply supervision, for 110-120 Vac operation, move the AC Supply
Select Switch (S6) on the PCB to the 120 position. For 220-240 Vac operation, move it to
the 240 position.
3. Attach the 3-conductor AC power cable to TB13 on the PCB.

NOTES:
1.
If "circuit not used" is selected, do NOT install an EOL as the control unit needs to see open
circuit. Using an EOL will cause trouble.
2.
DET 1, DET 2, and DET 3/WF will activate first alarm ONLY IF it is part of the ARC activation
condition.
3.
SUPV 1 will activate first alarm ONLY IF it is part of the ARC activation condition.
4.
If Initiator is selected for any Release circuit output, the respective Power-Limited switch setting
is ignored.
5.
The NAC will be driven by both ARC 1 and ARC 2. However the first ARC to reach each state is
given precedence. Once its cycle is complete, the other ARC, if active, will gain control.
6.
The NAC may be related to neither ARC if the control unit is used for non-suppression
applications. Also see notes 8 to 10.
7.
An OFF condition is different from NOT USED and will require that an EOL be installed.
8.
In addition to being selectable for NACx First Alarm, the various tones are also selectable in the
condition that both ARCs are not used and one of DET 1, DET 2 or DET 3/WF is in alarm.
9.
In addition to being selectable for NACx Pre-Release, the various tones are also selectable in the
condition that both ARCs are not used and two of DET 1, DET 2 or DET 3/WF are in alarm.
10. In addition to being selectable for NACx Releasing, the various tones are also selectable in the
condition that both ARCs are not used and all of DET 1, DET 2 and DET 3/WF are in alarm.

4-1.1
Normal Mode
Alarm Signal
Supervisory Signal
Normal Mode
In the normal mode, the control unit continuously monitors all inputs and outputs for any
change of state. In the normal mode the Green AC ON LED is the only illuminated LED. The
buzzer and NACs are silent, The Programmable Relays are de-energized, and the Trouble relay
is energized.

DET 1, or
DET 2, or
Manual Release
Manual Release
3. Releasing caused when the pre-release countdown timer has counted down to zero. In
this state, the control unit is actively in the process of activating its Agent Release
Circuit(s).
4. Post-Release condition when the control unit has released Agent.

Operation
4-1.3
Supervisory Signal
In the supervisory state, the control unit has detected a change in state of one or both of its
supervisory input circuits, or its PCB mounted Output Disable switch. A flashing LED indicates
one or more unacknowledged supervisory events. A steady LED indicates all supervisory
events have been acknowlwdged. The LED turns off when the AEGIS receives supervisory-off

MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
The Kidde AEGIS must be inspected, tested and maintained in accordance with the
requirements of NFPA 72 (latest edition), and/or the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
WARNING
Two different sources of power can be connected to the control unit. Disconnect
both sources of power and critical components such as special extinguishing
systems and relays controlling facility-power shutoff before servicing the
control unit. The control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by
connecting or disconnecting wiring while the control unit is energized.
For inspection, testing and maintenance of the associated extinguishing system, refer to the
manufacturers instructions and the standards and codes that apply to that systems.
Prior to any testing or maintenance on the AEGIS, perform the following:
1. Disable ARCs and NACs via the Output Disable control switch.
2. Physically disconnect the wiring to initiator assemblies (if used) from the release-circuit
terminals, short the leads together, and wrap the leads in insulating tape
3. Physically disconnect all control heads (if used) from their associated agent-storagecontainer discharge valves
4. Physically disconnect the wiring to solenoid valves (if used) for pre-action/deluge sprinkler
systems
5. Ensure that emergency operations controlled by this system such as facility power shutoff
are bypassed
6. Notify personnel in the facility and at off-premises monitoring locations that you are
working on the system and that you will inform them when servicing has ended.
5-2
TESTING FREQUENCY
The frequency shall be per NFPA 72 (latest edition) stated below, or as required by the local
Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), whichever is more stringent.

The Auxiliary Power Output current value stated is the maximum allowed. See Note 6 below.
The value stated for the Programmable Relays is for each individual relay when energized.
3 Standby currents should be considered for all Ionization, Photoelectric, Duct and Heat Detectors in the three
Detection Circuits. However, since only one detector can be in Alarm, the Alarm current should only be considered for the entire Detection Circuit.
4
The value stated for the NACs is the maximum for each. See Note 6 below.
5 For the Alarm current values of Steady Release Solenoids, refer to Appendix B.
6 Since the Power Supply of the Kidde AEGIS unit is rated at 5.4 Amps, the system designer should ensure
that the system circuits are loaded so as to keep the calculated alarm current equal to or less than 5.4
Amps.
