However, smoke detectors which are connected to a FACP are required to be
supervised.  Even you ought to know that much.

To be connected to a FACP the devices must be listed for the purpose.
110VAC smokes are not listed for connection to a FACP.  You can disregard
Frank's erroneous comments to the effect that a panel which is not listed
for fire obviates code compliance.
