This section describes how to connect the control panel to a local energy municipal fire alarm 
box or “city box” as required by NFPA 72 Auxiliary Protected Fire Alarm systems for fire 
alarm service. The city (master) box is an enclosure that contains a manually operated 
transmitter used to send an alarm to the municipal communication center which houses the 
central operating part of the fire alarm system. 

City Box Standby Current: 

0  (Notification supervision current

accounted for in control panel draw.)

Alarm Current:

1 Amp for 1 second
27.2 VDC max

The maximum coil and wire resistance (combined) must not exceed 30 ohms.

To install the 5220 for city box connection:

1. Use one of the knockouts on the right side of the control panel to connect the 5220 using a 

short piece of conduit (must not exceed 20 feet in length).

2. Wire the 5220 to the control panel as shown in Figure 4-41. This drawing also shows how 

to connect the city box coil to terminals 3 and 4 on the 5220. Do not install an EOL resis-
tor in the terminals of the Flexput circuit used for this application.

3. Connect earth ground wire to the 5220 chassis with mounting screw.

4. Program the Flexput circuit used as a notification circuit, continuous and non-silencing. 

It is not possible to reset the remote indication until you clear the condition and reset the 
control panel.
