NFS2-3030/E Installation Manual — P/N 52544:N1 07/18/2014 39Installing Printers Installation Overview: Keltron Remote Printer (Model VS4095)The VS4095 is a two-color (red and black), 40-column, 24 VDC printer thatcan print up to 50 messages in 90 seconds. This printer connects to the EIA-232 TB5 on the CPU and to the +24V screw on TB3 of AMPS-24/E, andmounts in a separate cabinet next to the control panel. The VS4095 meetsUL fire and security requirements for an ancillary device; it is not ULC-listed. For more information on the Keltron printer, contact the manufacturer(Keltron Corp., Waltham, MA). Installation and configuration instructions follow.3.14.1 Printer Installation Sequence1. Fabricate a custom cable to connect a printer to the system. Length of the cable will vary witheach installation, but should not exceed a maximum length of 50 feet (15.24 meters). Printermust be installed in the same room as panel. Using overall foil/braided-shield twisted-paircable, properly connect one end to the DB-25 Connector (provided) using the wiringspecifications shown in Figure 3.22.2. Tighten clamp on connector to secure cable. Connect the four open leads of the custom cable tothe TB5 terminal block on the CPU as shown in Figure 3.22.3. If installing a Keltron Printer VS4095/5, connect 24 VDC non-resettable power from aUL-listed power supply to the Keltron printer as shown in Figure 3.22 (14 AWG).4. If installing a PRN series printer, plug it into your AC power source. Note: PRN printersrequire a 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz primary power source. If required for the fire alarm systemconfiguration (for example, a Proprietary Fire Alarm System), a remote printer requires asecondary power source (battery backup). Because a secondary power source is not provided,use a separate Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) that is UL-listed for Fire ProtectiveSignaling.5. Plug the DB-25 connector end of the custom cable into the EIA-232 port of your printer.Tighten securely.6. Configure the printer as described in Section 3.14.2 “Configuring the Printer”.NOTE: Depending on which version of the AMPS-24/E is being used, the terminal blockdesignations may differ from those listed.
