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)
NotificationAppliance 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).

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).
