How do you sync this Simplex TrueAlarm smoke/heat detector to a Simplex 4010 FACP? I can not get it to sync automatically when using quick config and when I do it manually, it says wrong type and does not accept it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I think the 4010 uses quickconnect which the truealarms aren’t compatible with. It won’t automatically connect, and when connected you will get a trouble.
Did you look at the programming manual? There is a section about TrueAlarm devices.
This combo device did not seem to exist during the time of the 4010, this is from the latest programmer i could download. Rev 4.02.01
There is no combo devices in this list unfortunately.
Also this is the new features of each system revision.
2.01 Added 4009A functionality
Added Short Search functionality
2.03 Delay reporting battery TBL for 2 seconds
2.03.02 Temporal code changed to insure all NACS begin together
2.05.05 Changed IDNet to inhibit inadvertent reporting excessive dirty from devices
Fixed SFIO chip rebooting itself with cards going missing failed (ferrite
beads also needed on IDNet field wiring)
3.01 Added the suppression release device to the software.
Changed 60 beats per minute to 20 beats per minute for SFIO NACs and
IDNet channel coding.
Changed commands to the 4009a so that the 4009a could support 20
beats per minute coding.
3.02 Output Abnormal trouble does not report after Suppression Release
Peripheral has turned ON (found in 3.01)
3.02.01 Software filtering added to eliminate false reporting of Channel Failure
4.01 UL864 9th Edition ECO
Suppression Release Peripheral now reports a supervisory condition when
disabled or disconnected
AC Failure report on city circuit will be delayed (default is 2 hours).
4.02** Add support for Wheelock 2-wire Horn/Strobe appliances to the 4010.
Make SmartSync temporal start with 3 beats and make all synchronous
strobes flash at full intensity on first flash.
Corrected Synchronization issues between 4010 SFIO and 4009A
4.02.01 Increased frequency of SmartSync horn data transmissions to improve
horn sync performance
Corrected Coded horn beat stretched every 8 seconds with TrueAlert Non-
Addressable Appliances
4.02.02 Corrected NAC not playing 20 BPM
4.02.03 Corrected defect: CC Opcode XPHOTO SMOKE LEVEL triggers at one
level threshold higher than it should
4.02.04 Changed to poll the 4009A devices following the IDNet protocol so that it
can work with the latest improved revision of 4009A.
That’s a bummer. Thanks for looking into it for me though so I know. Very much appreciated!
