GFANN-80
80-Character LCD
Description
The GFANN-80 annunciator is a compact, backlit 80-character LCD fire annunciator that mimics the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) display. It provides system Status
indicators for AC power, Alarm, Trouble, Supervisory, and
Alarm Silenced conditions. The GFANN-80 and the FACP
communicate over a two-wire serial interface employing
the ANN-BUS communication format. Connected devices
are powered, via two additional wires, by either the host
FACP or a remote UL-Listed, filtered power supply. You
can order the GFANN-80 annunciator in red or white, (P/N:
GFANN-80-W).
The GFANN-80 displays English-language text of system
point information including, device type, zone, independent
point alarm, trouble or supervisory status, as well as any
custom alpha labels programmed into the control panel. It
includes control switches for the remote control of critical
systems functions. (A keyswitch prevents unauthorized
operation of the control switches).
To obtain the number of GFANN-80 devices that support
the ANN-BUS, refer to the host FACP manual.

POWERING THE DEVICES ON THE ANN-BUS FROM
AUXILIARY POWER SUPPLY
When the maximum number of ANN-BUS devices exceed
the ANN-BUS power requirements, use an auxiliary power
supply to power the ANN-BUS. See the FACP manual for
more information.

ANN-BUS DEVICE ADDRESSING
Each ANN-BUS device requires a unique address (ID
Number) to communicate with the FACP. A maximum of 8
devices can be connected to the FACP ANN-BUS communication circuit. See the FACP manual for more information.

WIRE REQUIREMENTS: COMMUNICATIONS
CIRCUIT
The ANN-80 connects to the FACP ANN-BUS communications circuit. To determine the type of wire and the maximum wiring distance that can be used with FACP ANNBUS accessory modules, it is necessary to calculate the
total worst case current draw for all modules on a single 4conductor bus. The total worst case current draw is calculated by adding the individual worst case currents for each
module.

COMMUNICATIONS CIRCUIT (Continued)
Features (Continued)
Note: For total worst case current draw on a single ANNBUS refer to appropriate FACP manual.
After calculating the total worst case current draw, the following table specifies the maximum distance the modules
can be located from the FACP on a single wire run. The
table ensures 6.0 volts of line drop maximum. In general,
the wire length is limited by resistance, but for heavier wire
gauges, capacitance is the limiting factor.
These cases are marked in the chart with an asterisk (*).
Maximum length can never be more than 6,000 feet (1,800
m), regardless of gauge used. See table below.
Wire Requirements: Power Circuit
• 14 to 18 AWG (0.75 - 2.08 mm2) wire for 24 VDC power
circuit is acceptable. Power wire distance limitation is
set by 1.2 volt maximum line drop form source to end of
circuit.
• All connections are power-limited and supervised.
• A maximum of eight ANN-80 modules may be connected to this circuit.
• Semi-flush mount to single, double, or 4" square electrical box. Use ANN-SB80KIT for angled view mounting.
• Can be remotely located up to 6,000 feet (1,800 m)
from the panel.
• Backlight turns off during AC loss to conserve battery
power but will turn back on if an alarm condition occurs
• May be powered by 24 VDC from the host FACP or by
remote power supply (requires 24 VDC).
