Flex 405
Fire Alarm Control Panel with built-in DACT
and remote-site upload/download capability
Features
• Five programmable Initiating Device Circuits
(zones). Each zone may be programmed for:
two-wire smoke detectors, normally open
contact devices (pull stations, heat detectors),
four-wire smoke detectors, waterflow
operation, supervisory operation, auto-reset
supervisory operation.
• Two built-in, Class A or B (Style Z or Y)
Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs).
NACs may be programmed: silenceable,
non-silenceable (a strobe circuit can keep
flashing after the panel is silenced), auto-
silence (program 5 to 30 minutes), silence
inhibit (60 seconds), coding (march time,
temporal, California).
• 3.0 amps of notification appliance power,
expandable to 5.0 amps (meets the critical
power requirements for ADA and UL-1971
devices).
• Two built-in Form-C Alarm and Trouble relays.
• Supervisory and communication fail outputs.
• Dual-line rotary- or Touch-Tone®-dial DACT
interfaces to public telephone network (leased
phone lines are not required).
• 24-Volt operation.
• Built-in voltmeter measures: zone voltage;
primary AC line voltage; battery voltage;
NAC(s) voltage; resettable 24-volt power.
• Surface Mount Technology (SMT).
• Fully programmable via built-in keypad (no
costly external programmers necessary).
• Complies with NFPA 72 (Local, Central
Station and Remote Station
[DACT only – not
polarity reversal]
Fire Alarm Systems).
• Reporting formats include:
3+1, 4+1, 4+2 Standard + Expanded;
4+1, 4+2, Ademco Express.
• Integral battery charger for up to 60 hours of
standby power.
• Fuseless, power-limited technology meets
UL power-limiting requirements.
• Programmable alarm presignal timer, alarm
verification timer, and optional trouble
reminder.
• Single-person walk test. Fire drill function.
• Zone disable capability (software).
• 32-Event history buffer with time-and-date
stamp. Accurate real-time clock/calendar.
• Extensive built-in transient protection.
• Electronics and operational controls fully
enclosed in a lockable cabinet capable of
housing up to 7 AH batteries.
•
Optional:
contact-by-zone module, remote
annunciator, printer interface for on- or off-line
printing.
Description
The Gamewell Flex 405 is a 24-volt,
five-zone Fire Alarm Control Panel
FACP) with built-in communicator and
remote-site upload/download capabil-
ity. The integral communicator trans-
mits event information (alarms,
troubles, supervisories, faults, etc.) to
a UL-Listed central station. The Flex
405 may be used in a variety of cost-
effective applications, including: local
fire alarm control panel (communica-
tor disabled), fire alarm control panel/
communicator, stand-alone sprinkler
supervisory communicator, or slave
communicator to a UL-Listed host fire
alarm panel (requires normally-open dry
contacts to trigger five channels). Selectable transmission formats allow the
Flex 405 to communicate to virtually all central stations.
Remote-Site Upload/Download
The Flex 405 may be downloaded or uploaded without affecting the system fire
protection. Download system programming, and upload key system information
such as: current system status, history and walk test files; zone, AC line, NAC
1 and NAC 2, resettable power and battery voltages; and system programming.
Upload or download within one minute without affecting normal fire panel func-
tions. The upload/download function also features multiple security techniques.
The Flex 405 requires the
PK-CD
programming kit, which works with most Hayes-
compatible modems (consult factory for listing).
