Issue
Can I use the 8 on board points for non-powered fire devices?
Solution
Yes, on the G Series panel only with ground fault turned on.
In order to enable ground fault detection on a G series panel, the following must be set:
- Switch S4, labeled Ground Fault Detect Enable, must be in the locked position.
- In the Area Wide Relays section of programming, Silent Alarm relay for Area 5 must be set to any non-zero number.
NOTE: The Honeywell G series panels, such as the 5800G or 5900G, with firmware 5.27 and lower cannot detect a ground fault even if both of the steps above are followed.
