User Guide — MxPro 5

The MxPro 5 uses a 7-inch colour touchscreen. The display shows the current system status, active alarms, faults, and disablements. Access levels are controlled by PIN code.

Access Levels

Level 1

No code — view status, silence sounders

Level 2

User code — reset, disable, test

Level 3

Engineer code — full programming access

Level 4

Advanced engineer — firmware, network config

Fire Alarm — What To Do (Responsible Person)

Do not silence or reset the alarm until the building has been evacuated and the fire brigade has attended.
Identify the zone in alarm from the panel display.
Investigate the indicated zone only if it is safe to do so.
If a genuine fire: call 999 immediately. Do not re-enter the building.
If a false alarm: silence the sounders using the Silence button (Level 1).
Investigate and identify the cause of the false alarm.
Reset the panel using the Reset button (Level 2 code required).
Record the event in the fire alarm log book.

Silencing the Alarm

Press the Silence button on the touchscreen.
The sounders will stop. The alarm condition remains displayed.
The panel remains in alarm state — it cannot be reset until the cause is cleared.

Resetting the Panel

Ensure the cause of the alarm has been identified and cleared.
Enter Level 2 code at the touchscreen.
Press Reset.
If the panel re-alarms, the cause has not been cleared — investigate further.

Default Access Codes

Level 2 (User)

Configurable — up to 10 Level 2 passwords. No single factory default published. Set during commissioning.

Level 3 (Engineer)

7654 (factory default — Source: Advanced Product Manual, Section 3.1.1)

Level 4 (Advanced)

Special tools required — contact Advanced Electronics

Verified (Advanced Product Manual): The factory default Level 3 password is 7654. If this number is lost it is not possible to enter commissioning mode — refer to Appendix 1 (Forgotten Level 3 Password). Always change default codes on commissioning.

Entering Engineer Mode

At the touchscreen, tap the padlock icon or press the Menu button.
Select Access Level.
Enter the Level 3 engineer code (factory default: 7654 — Source: Advanced Product Manual).
The panel enters engineer mode — full programming access is available.

Loop Programming

Navigate to Configuration → Loops.
Select the loop to configure.
Set the protocol (Apollo XP95, Discovery, Core Protocol, Hochiki, System Sensor).
Run Auto-Learn to detect all devices on the loop.
Assign zone numbers to each device.
Configure device types (smoke, heat, MCP, sounder, etc.).
Save and exit.

Cause & Effect Programming

The MxPro 5 uses AlarmCalc software for cause & effect programming. AlarmCalc is a PC-based tool that generates the cause & effect matrix and uploads it to the panel. Basic cause & effect can also be configured directly on the panel.

Zone Types

Zone Type	Function	Operation	Notes
Fire	Standard fire detection zone	Activates alarm outputs when any device in zone activates	—
Fault	Fault monitoring zone	Activates fault outputs on device fault	—
Disable	Zone can be disabled by engineer	Used for maintenance	—
Coincidence	Requires 2 devices to activate before alarm	Anti-false alarm	Grade A/B applications
Sounder	Output zone for sounders	Activated by fire zones	—
Ancillary	Output zone for ancillary devices	Door holders, dampers, lifts	—

Network Configuration

The MxPro 5 supports multi-panel networking via the Advanced Network Card (ANC). Up to 200 panels can be networked. The network uses RS485 or Ethernet. Each panel on the network can view and control all other panels.

The MxPro 5 displays faults and alarms on the touchscreen with full text descriptions. The event log records all events with timestamp, zone, and device information.

Loop Wiring — MxPro 5

The MxPro 5 uses Class A (Style 6/7) or Class B (Style 4) loop wiring. Class A provides fault tolerance — a single break does not disable the loop. Class B is a simple two-wire loop.

Loop Cable

1.5mm² screened, low capacitance

Max Loop Resistance

40Ω (Class B) / 80Ω (Class A)

Max Loop Capacitance

0.5µF

Max Loop Length

2km (Class B) / 4km (Class A)

Loop Voltage

24V DC nominal

Max Devices Per Loop

126 (XP95) / 99 (Core)

Terminal	Function	Notes
L+	Loop positive	Connect to loop cable positive
L−	Loop negative	Connect to loop cable negative
S+	Screen/shield	Connect screen at panel end only
L+ (return)	Class A return positive	Class A only — return from last device
L− (return)	Class A return negative	Class A only — return from last device

Power Supply Terminals

Terminal	Function	Notes
L	Live (mains)	230V AC — fused at 3A
N	Neutral (mains)	230V AC
E	Earth	Protective earth — must be connected
+24V	Auxiliary 24V output	For external devices — max 1A
0V	Common/negative	Reference for all 24V circuits
BAT+	Battery positive	Connect to 12V 7Ah battery positive
BAT−	Battery negative	Connect to 12V 7Ah battery negative

Sounder Circuit Wiring

Terminal	Function	Notes
BELL+	Sounder circuit positive	24V DC, max 2A per circuit
BELL−	Sounder circuit negative	Return — connect to 0V via EOL resistor
EOL	End-of-line resistor	4k7Ω (check panel documentation)

Class A Wiring: For Class A (fault-tolerant) loop wiring, both the outgoing and return cables must be routed separately — they must not share the same conduit or trunking. A fault on one cable must not affect the other.

Locate the address switches on the back of the device (DIP switches or rotary switches).
Set the address using the switch positions (refer to device datasheet for switch map).
For XP95/Discovery: addresses 1–126. For Core Protocol: addresses 1–99.
Refit the device to its base.
Verify the address is recognised by the panel.

Sensitivity Settings

Apollo detector sensitivity is set at the panel, not on the device. The panel sends a sensitivity command to each device. Typical sensitivity levels: Normal (standard), High (increased sensitivity), Low (reduced sensitivity for dusty environments).

Apollo Device Fault Codes

Apollo device faults are reported by the panel. The panel displays the loop number, device address, and fault type.

Code / Display	Description	Likely Cause	Action
OPEN CIRCUIT	Device removed or wiring break	Device not connected or loop wiring broken	Check device is fitted in base. Check loop wiring.
SHORT CIRCUIT	Wiring short or device failure	Loop wiring shorted or device internally shorted	Isolate sections to find fault. Replace device if failed.
DEVICE FAULT	Device self-test failure	Device dirty, failed, or out of calibration	Clean device. Replace if fault persists.
CONTAMINATION	Detector contaminated	Dust, insects, or moisture in detector	Clean or replace detector.
DRIFT	Detector drift	Detector sensitivity has drifted from calibration	Clean detector. Replace if drift is excessive.
COMM FAULT	Communication fault	Device not responding to panel polls	Check device address. Check loop wiring. Replace device.
ANALOGUE LOW	Analogue value below threshold	Device fault or wiring issue	Check device and wiring.
ANALOGUE HIGH	Analogue value above threshold	Pre-alarm condition or device fault	Investigate zone. Check device.

Maintenance

Apollo detectors should be tested annually (or more frequently in dusty/dirty environments). Testing involves activating each detector with a test magnet or aerosol test spray and verifying the panel responds correctly. Detectors should be cleaned every 1–3 years depending on environment.

Apollo Loop Wiring

Apollo devices are wired in a loop (Class B) or ring (Class A) configuration. The loop is powered by the panel at 17–28V DC. All devices are connected in series on the loop.

Loop Cable

1.5mm² screened, low capacitance

Max Loop Resistance

40Ω (Class B)

Max Loop Capacitance

0.5µF

Max Devices

126 (XP95/Discovery) / 99 (Core)

Loop Voltage

17–28V DC

Quiescent Current

~300µA per XP95 device

Device Base Wiring

Terminal	Function	Notes
L+	Loop positive in	From panel or previous device
L−	Loop negative in	From panel or previous device
L+ (out)	Loop positive out	To next device or panel return
L− (out)	Loop negative out	To next device or panel return
S	Screen/shield	Connect screen at panel end only

Manual Call Point Wiring

Apollo MCPs are wired the same as detectors — in series on the loop. The MCP activates when the glass element is broken, causing a step change in the analogue value that the panel detects as an alarm.

Sounder Wiring

Apollo loop-powered sounders are wired in series on the loop. The panel activates sounders by sending an activate command to each sounder address. Sounders can be individually addressed and controlled.

Screening: Loop cable screening must be connected at the panel end only. Connecting the screen at both ends creates a ground loop that can cause interference and false alarms.

1 Introduction
The XP95 range of intelligent fire detectors is advanced in design, improved in performance and has unique features that benefit the installer and the end user. The range includes ionisation and optical smoke detectors, heat detectors as well as a multisensor. All have an unobtrusive profile, a zero insertion force base, user friendly addressing and extended data and alarm features. A manual call point, an isolating base, sounders, beacons and other compatible products are also available.
These detectors have been carefully researched and developed by the design team and the range has undergone rigorous testing to ensure that it meets not only European and other standards but also the demands of today’s high technology environments.
This Product Guide aims to provide engineers with full information on XP95, in order to be able to design optimum solutions to fire protection problems.

2 Application of XP95 Detectors
The choice of detector from the XP95 range follows the well established principles of system design. That is, the optimum detector type will depend on the type of fire risk and fire load, and the type of environment in which the detector is sited.
For general use, smoke detectors are recommended since these give the highest level of protection. Smoke detectors from the XP95 range may be ionisation, optical or multisensor types. It is generally accepted that ionisation types have a high sensitivity to flaming fires whereas optical detectors have high sensitivity to smouldering fires. As a result of this, ionisation types are widely used for property protection, and optical types for life protection. These general principles still apply to XP95 detectors although the availability of a multisensor in the range offers more choice to the system designer.
The multisensor is basically an optical smoke detector and will therefore respond well to the smoke from smouldering fires. The detector also senses air temperature. This temperature sensitivity allows the multisensor to give a response to fast burning (flaming) fires, which is similar to that of an ionisation detector. The multisensor can therefore be used as an alternative to an ionisation detector.
Where the environment is smoky or dirty under normal conditions, a heat detector may be more appropriate. It must be recognised, however, that any heat detector will respond only when the fire is well established and generating a high heat output. Unless otherwise specified, devices described in this guide are suitable for indoor use only.

3 Addressing and Communications
Each XP95 device responds to interrogation and commands from the central control equipment. It communicates to the panel information on status, command bits, type, location, and other information that allows an alarm to be raised even when the device is not itself being interrogated. Message error checking is also provided. The devices are compatible with Series 90, Discovery® and XPlorer systems and control equipment to aid maintenance, extension and upgrade of existing systems.
A unique, patented XPERT card provides simple, user friendly and accurate identification of detector location whereby a coded card, inserted in the base, is read by any detector once it is plugged in. All the electronic components are in the detector but the location information is held in the base. The address card simplifies and speeds up installation and commissioning. Addressing errors during maintenance and service are eliminated.
The XP95 manual call point continues to use DIL switch addressing, but its interrupt feature also provides automatic reporting of its location in the interrupt mode.
The XP95 detectors provide an alarm facility that automatically puts an alarm flag on the data stream and reports its address when the pre-set EN54 thresholds are exceeded. The devices provide great flexibility in system design with the control equipment determining the characteristics of the system.

| Fire Type | Ionisation | Optical | Multisensor | Heat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overheating/thermal combustion | Poor | Very Good | Very Good | Very Poor |
| Smouldering/glowing combustion | Moderate/Good | Good | Good | Very Poor |
| Flaming combustion | Very Good | Good | Good | Poor |
| Flaming with high heat output | Very Good | Good | Very Good | Moderate/Good |
| Flaming-clean burning | Poor | Very Poor | Moderate/Good | Moderate/Good |

4 Approvals & Regulatory Compliance
The XP95 range of detectors and manual call points is approved by a large number of third party certification bodies around the world. These include detector approvals to EN54:2000 with LPCB, VdS, DIBT, BOSEC, AS1603 with Activfire, AS7240 with SAI Global and to UL268 and 521 with UL.
XP95 detectors comply with the requirements of a number of European New Approach Directives, such as the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, the Construction Products Directive 89/106/EEC and the Construction Products Regulations (EU) No 305/2011.
All XP95 products will comply with the marking requirements of the WEEE Directive, 2002/96/EC.
Australian Standards
Currently there are two standards in Australia for point type smoke detectors, the older AS1603.2 standard, and AS7240.7 – which has been adopted from the ISO7240.7 standard (this standard is heavily based on the European EN54.7 standard).
AS1603.2 requires the nominal sensitivity (S) of the detector to be between 0 and 15 %Obs/m, with the maximum sensitivity being greater than 0.5S or S-2 and a minimum sensitivity being less than 1.5S or S+2. The test method is specified in AS2362.17 – which states the smoke is produced by burning untempered hardboard (masonite) and the spread of the smoke is unassisted. In practise the smoke does not disperse evenly and tends to “clump” together, and therefore it is not uncommon to get a “spread” of obscuration levels.
AS7240.7 does NOT require the sensitivity of the detector to be within a set range. The detector is tested with 4 “test fires” (smouldering wood, smouldering cotton, flaming plastics and flaming heptane) – and the detector must go into alarm before the end of test condition. The end of test condition is an obscuration level (obscuration level is different for each “test fire” type). The obscuration threshold of the detector is determined (using an aerosol generated from pharmaceutical grade paraffin oil) to verify the repeatability, directional dependence and reproducibility of the detector meets the requirements of the standard. The test apparatus used to determine the sensitivity uses wind to assist the dispersion of the aerosol.
As the composition of the “smoke” between AS1603.2 and AS7240.7 is different and the test apparatus is different – the resulting threshold sensitivities between the two standards differ. Generally, the sensitivities measured under AS1603.2 are higher (up to 5%Obs/m) than measured under AS7240.7. A reason for this is that the smoke spread under AS7240.7 is uniform – as it is wind assisted.
It should be noted that under AS7240.7 – the performance of the detector is determined by the response to the 4 test fires, NOT the threshold sensitivity level.

6 Ionisation Smoke Detector
6.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector has a moulded selfextinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the ionisation chamber mounted on one side and the address and signal processing electronics on the other.
The ionisation chamber system is an inner reference chamber contained inside an outer smoke chamber. The outer smoke chamber has smoke inlet apertures that are fitted with an insect resistant mesh.
The radioactive source holder and the outer smoke chamber are the positive and negative electrodes respectively. An Americium 241 radioactive source mounted within the inner reference chamber irradiates the air in both chambers to produce positive and negative ions. On applying a voltage across the electrodes an electric field is formed. The ions are drawn to the electrode of opposite sign, some ions collide and recombine, but the net result is that a small electric current flows between the electrodes. At the junction between the reference and smoke chambers is the sensing electrode that is used to convert variations in the chamber currents into a voltage.
When smoke particles enter the ionisation chamber, ions become attached to them with the result that the current flowing through the ionisation chamber decreases. This effect is greater in the smoke chamber than in the reference chamber and the imbalance causes the sensing electrode to go more positive.
The voltage on the sensing electrode is monitored by the sensor circuitry and is processed to provide an analogue signal for transmission to the control equipment when the device is polled.
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The ionisation detector has some sensitivity to air movement (wind). The extent to which the analogue value will change depends on the wind speed and on the orientation of the detector relative to the wind direction. Relatively small changes in wind direction can cause significant changes in analogue value.
For wind speeds up to 1m/s (200ft/min) the change in analogue value will not exceed 5 counts. Continuous operation in wind speeds greater than 2m/s (400ft/min) is not recommended. However, wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) can be tolerated for short periods and will not under any conditions increase the probability of false alarms.
Ionisation smoke detectors are supplied in individual packing with a red lid serving as a dust cover which can be left in place after fitting to prevent ingress of dust and dirt until commissioning of the system takes place. At this point the covers must be removed.

6.2 Electrical Description:
The detector is designed to be connected to a two wire loop circuit carrying both data and a 14V to 28V dc supply. The detector is connected to the incoming and outgoing supply via terminals L1 and L2 in the mounting base. A remote LED indicator requiring not more than 4mA at 5V may be connected between the +R and -R terminals. An earth connection terminal is also provided.
When the device is responding to the control equipment it outputs a data pulse to the control equipment over the two-wire line. This operation is synchronous with the interrogation pulse from the control equipment.

6.3 Environmental Characteristics:
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector, like all ionisation detectors, has some sensitivity to air movement (wind). The extent to which the analogue value will change depends on the wind speed and on the orientation of the detector relative to the wind direction. Relatively small changes in wind direction can cause significant changes in analogue value.
For wind speeds up to 1m/s (200ft/min) the change in analogue value will not exceed 5 counts. Continuous operation in wind speeds greater than 2m/s (400ft/min) is not recommended. However, wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) can be tolerated for short periods and will not under any conditions increase the probability of false alarms.

6.4 Safety Note:
In the United Kingdom, ionisation smoke detectors are subject to the requirements of the Radioactive Substances Act 1993 and to the Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999 made under the provisions of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
The detectors, independently tested by the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB), conform to all the requirements specified in the ‘Recommendations for ionisation smoke detectors in implementation of radiation standards’ published by the Nuclear Energy Agency of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) 1977.
There is no limit to the number of ionisation smoke detectors which may be installed in any premises.
A General Authorisation has been granted under the Radioactive Substances Act 1993 for all premises, which are installed with ionisation smoke detectors and storage premises where detectors are kept, providing the total activity of all the detectors does not exceed 500 microcuries (18.5 MBq).
The General Authorisation includes regulations on the disposal of ionisation smoke detectors. These regulations require that detectors which are no longer required are returned to the manufacturer or an approved waste disposal contractor.
Please note that the rules and regulations concerning the use and disposal of radioactive materials vary from country to country. If you are in any doubt as to the regulations in your country, please consult your local authority.

7 Optical Smoke Detector
7.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 optical smoke detector has a moulded self-extinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the optical system mounted on one side and the address and signal processing electronics on the other.
The optical system consists of a pulsed infrared LED and a photo-diode receptor. These are arranged so that the photo-diode does not normally receive light from the LED. When smoke enters the chamber, light from the LED is scattered by the smoke particles and some of this scattered light is received by the photo-diode. The signal from the photo-diode is processed to provide an analogue value for transmission when the detector is polled.
The XP95 optical smoke detector is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The optical detector is less sensitive to air movement than the ionisation detector.
Optical smoke detectors are supplied in individual packing with a red lid serving as a dust cover which can be left in place after fitting to prevent ingress of dust and dirt until commissioning of the system takes place. At this point the covers must be removed.

10.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 manual call point has a moulded self-extinguishing red polycarbonate case. Inside the case is a printed circuit board that has the address and signal processing electronics. The manual call point is operated by pressing the frangible element. This action operates a microswitch which changes the state of the manual call point from normal to alarm. The manual call point incorporates a short circuit isolator which will ensure its operation in the event of a short circuit fault on the loop.
The manual call point is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The manual call point is unaffected by air movement.

Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) Range
Introduction to intrinsic safety
There are many places where an explosive mixture of air and gas or vapour is or may be present continuously, intermittently or as a result of an accident. These are defined as hazardous areas by BS EN 60079, the code of practice for installation and maintenance of electrical apparatus in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Hazardous areas are common in petroleum and chemical engineering plants and in factories processing and storing gases, solvents, paints and other volatile substances.
Electrical equipment for use in these areas needs to be designed so that it cannot ignite an explosive mixture, not only in normal operation but also in fault conditions. There are a number of methods available to achieve this, oil-immersion, pressurised apparatus and powder filling, for example, but the two in most common use are flameproof enclosures and intrinsic safety.
Flameproof equipment is contained in a box so strong that an internal explosion will neither damage the box nor be transmitted outside the box. The surface must remain cool enough not to ignite the explosive mixture.
When flameproof equipment is interconnected, flameproof wiring must be used. This method is most valuable when high power levels are unavoidable but is not acceptable for areas in which an explosive gas / air mixture may be continuously present or present for long periods.
For this reason Apollo fire detectors are made intrinsically safe rather than flameproof. Intrinsically safe equipment operates at such low power and with such small amounts of stored energy that it is incapable of causing ignition:
• In normal conditions
• With a single fault (for Ex ib categorisation)
• With any combination of two faults (for Ex ia categorisation)
In any of these conditions every component must remain cool enough not to ignite the gases for which it is approved.

Categorisation of hazardous areas
BS EN 60079-10-1 defines a hazardous area as one in which explosive gas/air mixtures are, or may be expected to be, present in quantities such as to require special precautions for the construction and use of electrical apparatus.
The degree of risk in any area is a function of:
• The probability of an explosive mixture being present
• The type of gas which may be present
• The temperature at which a gas might ignite spontaneously
These are defined in Table 1, Zone Categorisation, Table 2, Subdivision of Group II Gases.

Table 1: Zone Categorisation
| Zone | Definition | Intrinsically safe equipment approval required |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | In which an explosive gas/air mixture is continuously present or present for long periods | Ex ia |
| 1 | In which an explosive gas/air mixture is likely to occur in normal operation | Ex ia or Ex ib |
| 2 | In which an explosive gas/air mixture is not likely to occur in normal operation and if it occurs will exist only for a short time | Ex ia or Ex ib |

Table 2: Subdivision of Group II gases
| Gas | Definition | Intrinsically safe equipment approval required |
|---|---|---|
| Acetylene | Carbon Disulphide, Hydrogen | IIC |
| Ethylene | Butadiene, Formaldehyde, Diethyl-ether | IIB or IIC |
| Propane | Acetaldehyde, Acetone, Benzene, Butane, Ethane, Hexane, Heptane, Kerosene, Naptha, Petroleum, Styrene, Xylene | IIA or IIB or IIC |

XP95 Intrinsically Safe communications protocol
The standard XP95 communications protocol is designed to be very robust and to give the maximum flexibility to designers of loop driver circuits. The current and voltage levels used are chosen to be well above noise levels and to operate in adverse conditions with the minimum of errors. The maximum voltage and current levels used are, however, outside the limits of intrinsically safe (I.S.) systems and it has been necessary to apply lower limiting values for both current and voltage in the I.S. range.
The voltage limitation arises because of the need for safety barriers. The barriers used with Apollo I.S. detectors are rated at 28 volts, the highest rating that is commercially available. These are used to limit the voltage inside the hazardous area to a (practical) maximum of about 26 V dc. Although this is within the standard XP95 protocol specification, it is lower than that provided by most loop drivers.
The safety barrier is also responsible for the current limitation because the 28 V barriers have a series resistance of at least 300 ohms. This resistance results in unacceptable voltage drops if the normal 20 mA current pulses are used. It has therefore been necessary to reduce the amplitude of the current pulses to 10 mA.

XP95 Protocol Translator
In order to enable the use of standard control and indicating equipment in intrinsically safe systems, Apollo has developed a device to ‘translate’ voltage levels from any loop driver operating within the XP95 limits to levels compatible with the I.S. requirements. The translator also ‘boosts’ the current pulses returned by the I.S. detectors from 10 mA to 20 mA, thereby ensuring compatibility with standard loop driver thresholds.

System design
The design of an intrinsically safe fire detection system should take into consideration the requirements of BS5839-1 and BS EN 60079-14.
The maximum number of devices that can be connected to a single I.S. spur is 20. This limitation is due to the current consumption of the devices and the voltage drop across the safety barrier.
The maximum cable length for an I.S. spur is determined by the capacitance and inductance of the cable. The total capacitance and inductance of the cable and the devices connected to it must not exceed the maximum values specified for the safety barrier.

Wiring
The wiring of an intrinsically safe system must be carefully planned and executed to ensure that the intrinsic safety of the system is not compromised.
The cables used for the I.S. spur must be clearly identified and segregated from non-I.S. cables. The use of blue sheathed cable is recommended for I.S. circuits.
The cables must be protected against mechanical damage and must be routed away from sources of heat and electromagnetic interference.
The connections to the safety barrier and the devices must be made using appropriate terminals and must be secure and reliable.

Maintenance
The maintenance of an intrinsically safe system must be carried out by competent personnel who are trained and experienced in the maintenance of I.S. equipment.
The system must be regularly inspected and tested to ensure that it continues to operate correctly and safely.
Any faulty or damaged equipment must be replaced immediately with identical equipment that is certified for use in the hazardous area.
The safety barrier must be checked regularly to ensure that it is functioning correctly and that its earth connection is secure and reliable.

Fault Finding
In the event of a fault on the I.S. spur, the following steps should be taken:
1. Check the control panel for any fault indications.
2. Check the safety barrier to ensure that it is functioning correctly and that its earth connection is secure and reliable.
3. Check the wiring of the I.S. spur for any signs of damage or loose connections.
4. Check the devices connected to the I.S. spur to ensure that they are functioning correctly and that they are securely connected to the wiring.
5. If the fault cannot be located, contact a competent person for assistance.

Compliance
The XP95 I.S. range of detectors and manual call points is approved by a number of third party certification bodies around the world. These include approvals to EN54 and to the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC.
The devices are certified for use in hazardous areas Zone 0, Zone 1 and Zone 2, and for use with gases in Groups IIA, IIB and IIC.
The devices are also certified for use in ambient temperatures from -20°C to +60°C.

1 Introduction
The XP95 range of intelligent fire detectors is advanced in design, improved in performance and has unique features that benefit the installer and the end user. The range includes ionisation and optical smoke detectors, heat detectors as well as a multisensor. All have an unobtrusive profile, a zero insertion force base, user friendly addressing and extended data and alarm features. A manual call point, an isolating base, sounders, beacons and other compatible products are also available.
These detectors have been carefully researched and developed by the design team and the range has undergone rigorous testing to ensure that it meets not only European and other standards but also the demands of today’s high technology environments.
This Product Guide aims to provide engineers with full information on XP95, in order to be able to design optimum solutions to fire protection problems.

2 Application of XP95 Detectors
The choice of detector from the XP95 range follows the well established principles of system design. That is, the optimum detector type will depend on the type of fire risk and fire load, and the type of environment in which the detector is sited.
For general use, smoke detectors are recommended since these give the highest level of protection. Smoke detectors from the XP95 range may be ionisation, optical or multisensor types. It is generally accepted that ionisation types have a high sensitivity to flaming fires whereas optical detectors have high sensitivity to smouldering fires. As a result of this, ionisation types are widely used for property protection, and optical types for life protection. These general principles still apply to XP95 detectors although the availability of a multisensor in the range offers more choice to the system designer.
The multisensor is basically an optical smoke detector and will therefore respond well to the smoke from smouldering fires. The detector also senses air temperature. This temperature sensitivity allows the multisensor to give a response to fast burning (flaming) fires, which is similar to that of an ionisation detector. The multisensor can therefore be used as an alternative to an ionisation detector.
Where the environment is smoky or dirty under normal conditions, a heat detector may be more appropriate. It must be recognised, however, that any heat detector will respond only when the fire is well established and generating a high heat output. Unless otherwise specified, devices described in this guide are suitable for indoor use only.

3 Addressing and Communications
Each XP95 device responds to interrogation and commands from the central control equipment. It communicates to the panel information on status, command bits, type, location, and other information that allows an alarm to be raised even when the device is not itself being interrogated. Message error checking is also provided. The devices are compatible with Series 90, Discovery® and XPlorer systems and control equipment to aid maintenance, extension and upgrade of existing systems.
A unique, patented XPERT card provides simple, user friendly and accurate identification of detector location whereby a coded card, inserted in the base, is read by any detector once it is plugged in. All the electronic components are in the detector but the location information is held in the base. The address card simplifies and speeds up installation and commissioning. Addressing errors during maintenance and service are eliminated.
The XP95 manual call point continues to use DIL switch addressing, but its interrupt feature also provides automatic reporting of its location in the interrupt mode.
The XP95 detectors provide an alarm facility that automatically puts an alarm flag on the data stream and reports its address when the pre-set EN54 thresholds are exceeded. The devices provide great flexibility in system design with the control equipment determining the characteristics of the system.

Table 1 - Response characteristics of smoke and heat detectors.
| Fire Type | Ionisation | Optical | Multisensor | Heat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overheating/thermal combustion | Poor | Very Good | Very Good | Very Poor |
| Smouldering/glowing combustion | Moderate/Good | Good | Good | Very Poor |
| Flaming combustion | Very Good | Good | Good | Poor |
| Flaming with high heat output | Very Good | Good | Very Good | Moderate/Good |
| Flaming-clean burning | Poor | Very Poor | Moderate/Good | Moderate/Good |

4 Approvals & Regulatory Compliance
The XP95 range of detectors and manual call points is approved by a large number of third party certification bodies around the world. These include detector approvals to EN54:2000 with LPCB, VdS, DIBT, BOSEC, AS1603 with Activfire, AS7240 with SAI Global and to UL268 and 521 with UL.
XP95 detectors comply with the requirements of a number of European New Approach Directives, such as the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, the Construction Products Directive 89/106/EEC and the Construction Products Regulations (EU) No 305/2011.
All XP95 products will comply with the marking requirements of the WEEE Directive, 2002/96/EC.
Australian Standards
Currently there are two standards in Australia for point type smoke detectors, the older AS1603.2 standard, and AS7240.7 – which has been adopted from the ISO7240.7 standard (this standard is heavily based on the European EN54.7 standard).
AS1603.2 requires the nominal sensitivity (S) of the detector to be between 0 and 15 %Obs/m, with the maximum sensitivity being greater than 0.5S or S-2 and a minimum sensitivity being less than 1.5S or S+2. The test method is specified in AS2362.17 – which states the smoke is produced by burning untempered hardboard (masonite) and the spread of the smoke is unassisted. In practise the smoke does not disperse evenly and tends to “clump” together, and therefore it is not uncommon to get a “spread” of obscuration levels.
AS7240.7 does NOT require the sensitivity of the detector to be within a set range. The detector is tested with 4 “test fires” (smouldering wood, smouldering cotton, flaming plastics and flaming heptane) – and the detector must go into alarm before the end of test condition. The end of test condition is an obscuration level (obscuration level is different for each “test fire” type). The obscuration threshold of the detector is determined (using an aerosol generated from pharmaceutical grade paraffin oil) to verify the repeatability, directional dependence and reproducibility of the detector meets the requirements of the standard. The test apparatus used to determine the sensitivity uses wind to assist the dispersion of the aerosol.
As the composition of the “smoke” between AS1603.2 and AS7240.7 is different and the test apparatus is different – the resulting threshold sensitivities between the two standards differ. Generally, the sensitivities measured under AS1603.2 are higher (up to 5%Obs/m) than measured under AS7240.7. A reason for this is that the smoke spread under AS7240.7 is uniform – as it is wind assisted.
It should be noted that under AS7240.7 – the performance of the detector is determined by the response to the 4 test fires, NOT the threshold sensitivity level.

6 Ionisation Smoke Detector
6.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector has a moulded selfextinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the ionisation chamber mounted on one side and the address and signal processing electronics on the other.
The ionisation chamber system is an inner reference chamber contained inside an outer smoke chamber. The outer smoke chamber has smoke inlet apertures that are fitted with an insect resistant mesh.
The radioactive source holder and the outer smoke chamber are the positive and negative electrodes respectively. An Americium 241 radioactive source mounted within the inner reference chamber irradiates the air in both chambers to produce positive and negative ions. On applying a voltage across the electrodes an electric field is formed. The ions are drawn to the electrode of opposite sign, some ions collide and recombine, but the net result is that a small electric current flows between the electrodes. At the junction between the reference and smoke chambers is the sensing electrode that is used to convert variations in the chamber currents into a voltage.
When smoke particles enter the ionisation chamber, ions become attached to them with the result that the current flowing through the ionisation chamber decreases. This effect is greater in the smoke chamber than in the reference chamber and the imbalance causes the sensing electrode to go more positive.
The voltage on the sensing electrode is monitored by the sensor circuitry and is processed to provide an analogue signal for transmission to the control equipment when the device is polled.
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The ionisation detector has some sensitivity to air movement (wind). The extent to which the analogue value will change depends on the wind speed and on the orientation of the detector relative to the wind direction. Relatively small changes in wind direction can cause significant changes in analogue value.
For wind speeds up to 1m/s (200ft/min) the change in analogue value will not exceed 5 counts. Continuous operation in wind speeds greater than 2m/s (400ft/min) is not recommended. However, wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) can be tolerated for short periods and will not under any conditions increase the probability of false alarms.
Ionisation smoke detectors are supplied in individual packing with a red lid serving as a dust cover which can be left in place after fitting to prevent ingress of dust and dirt until commissioning of the system takes place. At this point the covers must be removed.

6.2 Electrical Description:
The detector is designed to be connected to a two wire loop circuit carrying both data and a 14V to 28V dc supply. The detector is connected to the incoming and outgoing supply via terminals L1 and L2 in the mounting base. A remote LED indicator requiring not more than 4mA at 5V may be connected between the +R and -R terminals. An earth connection terminal is also provided.
When the device is responding to the control equipment it outputs a data pulse to the control equipment over the two-wire line. This operation is synchronous with the interrogation pulse from the control equipment.

6.3 Environmental Characteristics:
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector, like all ionisation detectors, has some sensitivity to air movement (wind). The extent to which the analogue value will change depends on the wind speed and on the orientation of the detector relative to the wind direction. Relatively small changes in wind direction can cause significant changes in analogue value.
For wind speeds up to 1m/s (200ft/min) the change in analogue value will not exceed 5 counts. Continuous operation in wind speeds greater than 2m/s (400ft/min) is not recommended. However, wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) can be tolerated for short periods and will not under any conditions increase the probability of false alarms.

6.4 Safety Note:
In the United Kingdom, ionisation smoke detectors are subject to the requirements of the Radioactive Substances Act 1993 and to the Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999 made under the provisions of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
The detectors, independently tested by the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB), conform to all the requirements specified in the ‘Recommendations for ionisation smoke detectors in implementation of radiation standards’ published by the Nuclear Energy Agency of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) 1977.
There is no limit to the number of ionisation smoke detectors which may be installed in any premises.
A General Authorisation has been granted under the Radioactive Substances Act 1993 for all premises, which are installed with ionisation smoke detectors and storage premises where detectors are kept, providing the total activity of all the detectors does not exceed 500 microcuries (18.5 MBq).
The General Authorisation includes regulations on the disposal of ionisation smoke detectors. These regulations require that detectors which are no longer required are returned to the manufacturer or an approved waste disposal contractor.
Please note that the rules and regulations concerning the use and disposal of radioactive materials vary from country to country. If you are in any doubt as to the regulations in your country, please consult your local authority.

7 Optical Smoke Detector
7.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 optical smoke detector has a moulded self-extinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the optical system mounted on one side and the address and signal processing electronics on the other.
The optical system consists of a pulsed infrared LED and a photo-diode receptor. These are arranged so that the photo-diode does not normally receive light from the LED. When smoke enters the chamber, light from the LED is scattered by the smoke particles and some of this scattered light is received by the photo-diode. The signal from the photo-diode is processed to provide an analogue value for transmission when the detector is polled.
The XP95 optical smoke detector is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The optical detector is less sensitive to air movement than the ionisation detector.
Optical smoke detectors are supplied in individual packing with a red lid serving as a dust cover which can be left in place after fitting to prevent ingress of dust and dirt until commissioning of the system takes place. At this point the covers must be removed.

7.2 Electrical Description:
The detector is designed to be connected to a two wire loop circuit carrying both data and a 14V to 28V dc supply. The detector is connected to the incoming and outgoing supply via terminals L1 and L2 in the mounting base. A remote LED indicator requiring not more than 4mA at 5V may be connected between the +R and -R terminals. An earth connection terminal is also provided.
When the device is responding to the control equipment it outputs a data pulse to the control equipment over the two-wire line. This operation is synchronous with the interrogation pulse from the control equipment.

7.3 Environmental Characteristics:
The XP95 optical smoke detector is relatively insensitive to air movement. It can operate in wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) without any significant change in analogue value.

Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) Range
Introduction to intrinsic safety
There are many places where an explosive mixture of air and gas or vapour is or may be present continuously, intermittently or as a result of an accident. These are defined as hazardous areas by BS EN 60079, the code of practice for installation and maintenance of electrical apparatus in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Hazardous areas are common in petroleum and chemical engineering plants and in factories processing and storing gases, solvents, paints and other volatile substances.
Electrical equipment for use in these areas needs to be designed so that it cannot ignite an explosive mixture, not only in normal operation but also in fault conditions. There are a number of methods available to achieve this, oil-immersion, pressurised apparatus and powder filling, for example, but the two in most common use are flameproof enclosures and intrinsic safety.
Flameproof equipment is contained in a box so strong that an internal explosion will neither damage the box nor be transmitted outside the box. The surface must remain cool enough not to ignite the explosive mixture.
When flameproof equipment is interconnected, flameproof wiring must be used. This method is most valuable when high power levels are unavoidable but is not acceptable for areas in which an explosive gas / air mixture may be continuously present or present for long periods.
For this reason Apollo fire detectors are made intrinsically safe rather than flameproof. Intrinsically safe equipment operates at such low power and with such small amounts of stored energy that it is incapable of causing ignition:
• In normal conditions
• With a single fault (for Ex ib categorisation)
• With any combination of two faults (for Ex ia categorisation)
In any of these conditions every component must remain cool enough not to ignite the gases for which it is approved.

Categorisation of hazardous areas
BS EN 60079-10-1 defines a hazardous area as one in which explosive gas/air mixtures are, or may be expected to be, present in quantities such as to require special precautions for the construction and use of electrical apparatus.
The degree of risk in any area is a function of:
• The probability of an explosive mixture being present
• The type of gas which may be present
• The temperature at which a gas might ignite spontaneously
These are defined in Table 1, Zone Categorisation, Table 2, Subdivision of Group II Gases.

Table 1: Zone Categorisation
| Zone | Definition | Intrinsically safe equipment approval required |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | In which an explosive gas/air mixture is continuously present or present for long periods | Ex ia |
| 1 | In which an explosive gas/air mixture is likely to occur in normal operation | Ex ia or Ex ib |
| 2 | In which an explosive gas/air mixture is not likely to occur in normal operation and if it occurs will exist only for a short time | Ex ia or Ex ib |

Table 2: Subdivision of Group II gases
| Gas | Definition | Intrinsically safe equipment approval required |
|---|---|---|
| Acetylene | Carbon Disulphide, Hydrogen | IIC |
| Ethylene | Butadiene, Formaldehyde, Diethyl-ether | IIB or IIC |
| Propane | Acetaldehyde, Acetone, Benzene, Butane, Ethane, Hexane, Heptane, Kerosene, Naptha, Petroleum, Styrene, Xylene | IIA or IIB or IIC |

XP95 Intrinsically Safe communications protocol
The standard XP95 communications protocol is designed to be very robust and to give the maximum flexibility to designers of loop driver circuits. The current and voltage levels used are chosen to be well above noise levels and to operate in adverse conditions with the minimum of errors. The maximum voltage and current levels used are, however, outside the limits of intrinsically safe (I.S.) systems and it has been necessary to apply lower limiting values for both current and voltage in the I.S. range.
The voltage limitation arises because of the need for safety barriers. The barriers used with Apollo I.S. detectors are rated at 28 volts, the highest rating that is commercially available. These are used to limit the voltage inside the hazardous area to a (practical) maximum of about 26 V dc. Although this is within the standard XP95 protocol specification, it is lower than that provided by most loop drivers.
The safety barrier is also responsible for the current limitation because the 28 V barriers have a series resistance of at least 300 ohms. This resistance results in unacceptable voltage drops if the normal 20 mA current pulses are used. It has therefore been necessary to reduce the amplitude of the current pulses to 10 mA.

XP95 Protocol Translator
In order to enable the use of standard control and indicating equipment in intrinsically safe systems, Apollo has developed a device to ‘translate’ voltage levels from any loop driver operating within the XP95 limits to levels compatible with the I.S. requirements. The translator also ‘boosts’ the current pulses returned by the I.S. detectors from 10 mA to 20 mA, thereby ensuring compatibility with standard loop driver thresholds.

System design
The design of an intrinsically safe fire detection system should take into consideration the requirements of BS5839-1 and BS EN 60079-14.
The maximum number of devices that can be connected to a single I.S. spur is 20. This limitation is due to the current consumption of the devices and the voltage drop across the safety barrier.
The maximum cable length for an I.S. spur is determined by the capacitance and inductance of the cable. The total capacitance and inductance of the cable and the devices connected to it must not exceed the maximum values specified for the safety barrier.

Wiring
The wiring of an intrinsically safe system must be carefully planned and executed to ensure that the intrinsic safety of the system is not compromised.
The cables used for the I.S. spur must be clearly identified and segregated from non-I.S. cables. The use of blue sheathed cable is recommended for I.S. circuits.
The cables must be protected against mechanical damage and must be routed away from sources of heat and electromagnetic interference.
The connections to the safety barrier and the devices must be made using appropriate terminals and must be secure and reliable.

Maintenance
The maintenance of an intrinsically safe system must be carried out by competent personnel who are trained and experienced in the maintenance of I.S. equipment.
The system must be regularly inspected and tested to ensure that it continues to operate correctly and safely.
Any faulty or damaged equipment must be replaced immediately with identical equipment that is certified for use in the hazardous area.
The safety barrier must be checked regularly to ensure that it is functioning correctly and that its earth connection is secure and reliable.

Fault Finding
In the event of a fault on the I.S. spur, the following steps should be taken:
1. Check the control panel for any fault indications.
2. Check the safety barrier to ensure that it is functioning correctly and that its earth connection is secure and reliable.
3. Check the wiring of the I.S. spur for any signs of damage or loose connections.
4. Check the devices connected to the I.S. spur to ensure that they are functioning correctly and that they are securely connected to the wiring.
5. If the fault cannot be located, contact a competent person for assistance.

Compliance
The XP95 I.S. range of detectors and manual call points is approved by a number of third party certification bodies around the world. These include approvals to EN54 and to the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC.
The devices are certified for use in hazardous areas Zone 0, Zone 1 and Zone 2, and for use with gases in Groups IIA, IIB and IIC.
The devices are also certified for use in ambient temperatures from -20°C to +60°C.

The XP95 range of intelligent fire detectors is advanced in design, improved in performance and has unique features that benefit the installer and the end user. The range includes ionisation and optical smoke detectors, heat detectors as well as a multisensor. All have an unobtrusive profile, a zero insertion force base, user friendly addressing and extended data and alarm features. A manual call point, an isolating base, sounders, beacons and other compatible products are also available.
These detectors have been carefully researched and developed by the design team and the range has undergone rigorous testing to ensure that it meets not only European and other standards but also the demands of today’s high technology environments.
This Product Guide aims to provide engineers with full information on XP95, in order to be able to design optimum solutions to fire protection problems.

2 Application of XP95 Detectors
The choice of detector from the XP95 range follows the well established principles of system design. That is, the optimum detector type will depend on the type of fire risk and fire load, and the type of environment in which the detector is sited.
For general use, smoke detectors are recommended since these give the highest level of protection. Smoke detectors from the XP95 range may be ionisation, optical or multisensor types. It is generally accepted that ionisation types have a high sensitivity to flaming fires whereas optical detectors have high sensitivity to smouldering fires. As a result of this, ionisation types are widely used for property protection, and optical types for life protection. These general principles still apply to XP95 detectors although the availability of a multisensor in the range offers more choice to the system designer.
The multisensor is basically an optical smoke detector and will therefore respond well to the smoke from smouldering fires. The detector also senses air temperature. This temperature sensitivity allows the multisensor to give a response to fast burning (flaming) fires, which is similar to that of an ionisation detector. The multisensor can therefore be used as an alternative to an ionisation detector.
Where the environment is smoky or dirty under normal conditions, a heat detector may be more appropriate. It must be recognised, however, that any heat detector will respond only when the fire is well established and generating a high heat output. Unless otherwise specified, devices described in this guide are suitable for indoor use only.

3 Addressing and Communications
Each XP95 device responds to interrogation and commands from the central control equipment. It communicates to the panel information on status, command bits, type, location, and other information that allows an alarm to be raised even when the device is not itself being interrogated. Message error checking is also provided. The devices are compatible with Series 90, Discovery® and XPlorer systems and control equipment to aid maintenance, extension and upgrade of existing systems.
A unique, patented XPERT card provides simple, user friendly and accurate identification of detector location whereby a coded card, inserted in the base, is read by any detector once it is plugged in. All the electronic components are in the detector but the location information is held in the base. The address card simplifies and speeds up installation and commissioning. Addressing errors during maintenance and service are eliminated.
The XP95 manual call point continues to use DIL switch addressing, but its interrupt feature also provides automatic reporting of its location in the interrupt mode.
The XP95 detectors provide an alarm facility that automatically puts an alarm flag on the data stream and reports its address when the pre-set EN54 thresholds are exceeded. The devices provide great flexibility in system design with the control equipment determining the characteristics of the system.

4 Approvals & Regulatory Compliance
The XP95 range of detectors and manual call points is approved by a large number of third party certification bodies around the world. These include detector approvals to EN54:2000 with LPCB, VdS, DIBT, BOSEC, AS1603 with Activfire, AS7240 with SAI Global and to UL268 and 521 with UL.
XP95 detectors comply with the requirements of a number of European New Approach Directives, such as the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, the Construction Products Directive 89/106/EEC and the Construction Products Regulations (EU) No 305/2011.
All XP95 products will comply with the marking requirements of the WEEE Directive, 2002/96/EC.
Australian Standards
Currently there are two standards in Australia for point type smoke detectors, the older AS1603.2 standard, and AS7240.7 – which has been adopted from the ISO7240.7 standard (this standard is heavily based on the European EN54.7 standard).
AS1603.2 requires the nominal sensitivity (S) of the detector to be between 0 and 15 %Obs/m, with the maximum sensitivity being greater than 0.5S or S-2 and a minimum sensitivity being less than 1.5S or S+2. The test method is specified in AS2362.17 – which states the smoke is produced by burning untempered hardboard (masonite) and the spread of the smoke is unassisted. In practise the smoke does not disperse evenly and tends to “clump” together, and therefore it is not uncommon to get a “spread” of obscuration levels.
AS7240.7 does NOT require the sensitivity of the detector to be within a set range. The detector is tested with 4 “test fires” (smouldering wood, smouldering cotton, flaming plastics and flaming heptane) – and the detector must go into alarm before the end of test condition. The end of test condition is an obscuration level (obscuration level is different for each “test fire” type). The obscuration threshold of the detector is determined (using an aerosol generated from pharmaceutical grade paraffin oil) to verify the repeatability, directional dependence and reproducibility of the detector meets the requirements of the standard. The test apparatus used to determine the sensitivity uses wind to assist the dispersion of the aerosol.
As the composition of the “smoke” between AS1603.2 and AS7240.7 is different and the test apparatus is different – the resulting threshold sensitivities between the two standards differ. Generally, the sensitivities measured under AS1603.2 are higher (up to 5%Obs/m) than measured under AS7240.7. A reason for this is that the smoke spread under AS7240.7 is uniform – as it is wind assisted.
It should be noted that under AS7240.7 – the performance of the detector is determined by the response to the 4 test fires, NOT the threshold sensitivity level.

6 Ionisation Smoke Detector
6.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector has a moulded selfextinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the ionisation chamber mounted on one side and the address and signal processing electronics on the other.
The ionisation chamber system is an inner reference chamber contained inside an outer smoke chamber. The outer smoke chamber has smoke inlet apertures that are fitted with an insect resistant mesh.
The radioactive source holder and the outer smoke chamber are the positive and negative electrodes respectively. An Americium 241 radioactive source mounted within the inner reference chamber irradiates the air in both chambers to produce positive and negative ions. On applying a voltage across the electrodes an electric field is formed. The ions are drawn to the electrode of opposite sign, some ions collide and recombine, but the net result is that a small electric current flows between the electrodes. At the junction between the reference and smoke chambers is the sensing electrode that is used to convert variations in the chamber currents into a voltage.
When smoke particles enter the ionisation chamber, ions become attached to them with the result that the current flowing through the ionisation chamber decreases. This effect is greater in the smoke chamber than in the reference chamber and the imbalance causes the sensing electrode to go more positive.
The voltage on the sensing electrode is monitored by the sensor circuitry and is processed to provide an analogue signal for transmission to the control equipment when the device is polled.
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The ionisation detector has some sensitivity to air movement (wind). The extent to which the analogue value will change depends on the wind speed and on the orientation of the detector relative to the wind direction. Relatively small changes in wind direction can cause significant changes in analogue value.
For wind speeds up to 1m/s (200ft/min) the change in analogue value will not exceed 5 counts. Continuous operation in wind speeds greater than 2m/s (400ft/min) is not recommended. However, wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) can be tolerated for short periods and will not under any conditions increase the probability of false alarms.
Ionisation smoke detectors are supplied in individual packing with a red lid serving as a dust cover which can be left in place after fitting to prevent ingress of dust and dirt until commissioning of the system takes place. At this point the covers must be removed.

6.2 Electrical Description:
The detector is designed to be connected to a two wire loop circuit carrying both data and a 14V to 28V dc supply. The detector is connected to the incoming and outgoing supply via terminals L1 and L2 in the mounting base. A remote LED indicator requiring not more than 4mA at 5V may be connected between the +R and -R terminals. An earth connection terminal is also provided.
When the device is responding to the control equipment it outputs a data pulse to the control equipment over the two-wire line. This operation is synchronous with the interrogation pulse from the control equipment.

6.3 Environmental Characteristics:
The XP95 ionisation smoke detector, like all ionisation detectors, has some sensitivity to air movement (wind). The extent to which the analogue value will change depends on the wind speed and on the orientation of the detector relative to the wind direction. Relatively small changes in wind direction can cause significant changes in analogue value.
For wind speeds up to 1m/s (200ft/min) the change in analogue value will not exceed 5 counts. Continuous operation in wind speeds greater than 2m/s (400ft/min) is not recommended. However, wind speeds up to 10m/s (2000ft/min) can be tolerated for short periods and will not under any conditions increase the probability of false alarms.

6.4 Safety Note:
In the United Kingdom, ionisation smoke detectors are subject to the requirements of the Radioactive Substances Act 1993 and to the Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999 made under the provisions of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
The detectors, independently tested by the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB), conform to all the requirements specified in the ‘Recommendations for ionisation smoke detectors in implementation of radiation standards’ published by the Nuclear Energy Agency of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) 1977.
There is no limit to the number of ionisation smoke detectors which may be installed in any premises.
A General Authorisation has been granted under the Radioactive Substances Act 1993 for all premises, which are installed with ionisation smoke detectors and storage premises where detectors are kept, providing the total activity of all the detectors does not exceed 500 microcuries (18.5 MBq).
The General Authorisation includes regulations on the disposal of ionisation smoke detectors. These regulations require that detectors which are no longer required are returned to the manufacturer or an approved waste disposal contractor.
Please note that the rules and regulations concerning the use and disposal of radioactive materials vary from country to country. If you are in any doubt as to the regulations in your country, please consult your local authority.

7 Optical Smoke Detector
7.1 Operating Principles:
The XP95 optical smoke detector has a moulded self-extinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the optical system mounted on one side and the address and signal processing electronics on the other.
The optical system consists of a pulsed infrared LED and a photo-diode receptor. These are arranged so that the photo-diode does not normally receive light from the LED. When smoke enters the chamber, light from the LED is scattered by the smoke particles and some of this scattered light is received by the photo-diode. The signal from the photo-diode is processed to provide an analogue value for transmission when the detector is polled.
The XP95 optical smoke detector is designed to operate in a variety of environments from typical premises to commercial and industrial applications. The optical detector is less sensitive to air movement than the ionisation detector.
Optical smoke detectors are supplied in individual packing with a red lid serving as a dust cover which can be left in place after fitting to prevent ingress of dust and dirt until commissioning of the system takes place. At this point the covers must be removed.

11 XP95 Mounting Base
11.1 XP95 Mounting Bases and XPERT cards.
The XP95 mounting base is a zero insertion force base with dual finger receptacles of stainless steel into which the detector terminals slide. Cable connections of up to 2.5mm diameter are made via captive cable clamps.
There are four double terminals and one single one.
L1- line in and line out, double terminal
L2+ line in and line out, double terminal
+R remote LED positive supply, double terminal
-R remote LED negative supply, double terminal
The remaining single terminal is isolated and can be used to provide continuity of an earth or shield.
Universal address cards, known as XPERT cards, are supplied with all bases. Consult the coding guide in the installation instructions to determine which pips are to be removed from the card to give the correct address. Lay the card on a flat surface, pips down, insert a screwdriver into the slot on the reverse of the pip to be removed and give a firm twist.
When the card is coded insert it into the slot in the side of the appropriate base, making sure that the card locks itself into place. As a detector is inserted into the base, the remaining pips operate address buttons on the detector base and the detector electronics reads the address.

Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) Range
Introduction to intrinsic safety
There are many places where an explosive mixture of air and gas or vapour is or may be present continuously, intermittently or as a result of an accident. These are defined as hazardous areas by BS EN 60079, the code of practice for installation and maintenance of electrical apparatus in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Hazardous areas are common in petroleum and chemical engineering plants and in factories processing and storing gases, solvents, paints and other volatile substances.
Electrical equipment for use in these areas needs to be designed so that it cannot ignite an explosive mixture, not only in normal operation but also in fault conditions. There are a number of methods available to achieve this, oil-immersion, pressurised apparatus and powder filling, for example, but the two in most common use are flameproof enclosures and intrinsic safety.
Flameproof equipment is contained in a box so strong that an internal explosion will neither damage the box nor be transmitted outside the box. The surface must remain cool enough not to ignite the explosive mixture.
When flameproof equipment is interconnected, flameproof wiring must be used. This method is most valuable when high power levels are unavoidable but is not acceptable for areas in which an explosive gas / air mixture may be continuously present or present for long periods.
For this reason Apollo fire detectors are made intrinsically safe rather than flameproof. Intrinsically safe equipment operates at such low power and with such small amounts of stored energy that it is incapable of causing ignition:
• In normal conditions
• With a single fault (for Ex ib categorisation)
• With any combination of two faults (for Ex ia categorisation)
In any of these conditions every component must remain cool enough not to ignite the gases for which it is approved.

Categorisation of hazardous areas
BS EN 60079-10-1 defines a hazardous area as one in which explosive gas/air mixtures are, or may be expected to be, present in quantities such as to require special precautions for the construction and use of electrical apparatus.
The degree of risk in any area is a function of:

XP95 Intrinsically Safe communications protocol
The standard XP95 communications protocol is designed to be very robust and to give the maximum flexibility to designers of loop driver circuits. The current and voltage levels used are chosen to be well above noise levels and to operate in adverse conditions with the minimum of errors. The maximum voltage and current levels used are, however, outside the limits of intrinsically safe (I.S.) systems and it has been necessary to apply lower limiting values for both current and voltage in the I.S. range.
The voltage limitation arises because of the need for safety barriers. The barriers used with Apollo I.S. detectors are rated at 28 volts, the highest rating that is commercially available. These are used to limit the voltage inside the hazardous area to a (practical) maximum of about 26 V dc. Although this is within the standard XP95 protocol specification, it is lower than that provided by most loop drivers.
The safety barrier is also responsible for the current limitation because the 28 V barriers have a series resistance of at least 300 ohms. This resistance results in unacceptable voltage drops if the normal 20 mA current pulses are used. It has therefore been necessary to reduce the amplitude of the current pulses to 10 mA.

XP95 Protocol Translator
In order to enable the use of standard control and indicating equipment in intrinsically safe systems, Apollo has developed a device to ‘translate’ voltage levels from any loop driver operating within the XP95 limits to levels compatible with the I.S. requirements. The translator also ‘boosts’ the current pulses returned by the I.S. detectors from 10 mA to 20 mA, thereby ensuring compatibility with standard loop driver thresholds.

System design
The design of an intrinsically safe fire detection system should take into consideration the requirements of BS5839-1 and BS EN 60079-14.
The maximum number of devices that can be connected to a single I.S. spur is 20. This limitation is due to the current consumption of the devices and the voltage drop across the safety barrier.
The maximum cable length for an I.S. spur is determined by the capacitance and inductance of the cable. The total capacitance and inductance of the cable and the devices connected to it must not exceed the maximum values specified for the safety barrier.

Wiring
The wiring of an intrinsically safe system must be carefully planned and executed to ensure that the intrinsic safety of the system is not compromised.
The cables used for the I.S. spur must be clearly identified and segregated from non-I.S. cables. The use of blue sheathed cable is recommended for I.S. circuits.
The cables must be protected against mechanical damage and must be routed away from sources of heat and electromagnetic interference.
The connections to the safety barrier and the devices must be made using appropriate terminals and must be secure and reliable.

Maintenance
The maintenance of an intrinsically safe system must be carried out by competent personnel who are trained and experienced in the maintenance of I.S. equipment.
The system must be regularly inspected and tested to ensure that it continues to operate correctly and safely.
Any faulty or damaged equipment must be replaced immediately with identical equipment that is certified for use in the hazardous area.
The safety barrier must be checked regularly to ensure that it is functioning correctly and that its earth connection is secure and reliable.

Fault Finding
In the event of a fault on the I.S. spur, the following steps should be taken:
1. Check the control panel for any fault indications.
2. Check the safety barrier to ensure that it is functioning correctly and that its earth connection is secure and reliable.
3. Check the wiring of the I.S. spur for any signs of damage or loose connections.
4. Check the devices connected to the I.S. spur to ensure that they are functioning correctly and that they are securely connected to the wiring.
5. If the fault cannot be located, contact a competent person for assistance.

Compliance
The XP95 I.S. range of detectors and manual call points is approved by a number of third party certification bodies around the world. These include approvals to EN54 and to the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC.
The devices are certified for use in hazardous areas Zone 0, Zone 1 and Zone 2, and for use with gases in Groups IIA, IIB and IIC.
The devices are also certified for use in ambient temperatures from -20°C to +60°C.

### Apollo Fire Detectors XP95 Discovery Series 90 Technical Documentation

**1. Communication Protocols and System Compatibility**

The Apollo Discovery range utilizes a digital communication protocol derived from the XP95 protocol. This protocol supports three distinct modes: Normal, Read, and Write. The Normal mode is largely identical to the XP95 protocol, with re-defined analogue value bits that enable fire control panels to differentiate between Discovery and XP95 devices. The Read mode facilitates checking information stored in the non-volatile memory of each detector, while the Write mode allows the fire control panel to write information to the detector. Discovery detectors are compatible with both XP95 and Soteria systems. However, it is important to note that Discovery-specific features may not be available when used with XP95 fire control panels. Fire control panels employing drift compensation algorithms should disable these algorithms when communicating with Discovery devices.

**2. Detector Response Settings and Features**

Each detector within the Discovery range can operate in one of five response modes, which are selectable from the fire control panel. These modes correspond to unique response behaviors, broadly related to sensitivity to fire, with Mode 1 offering the highest sensitivity and Mode 5 the lowest. The selection of the appropriate mode is application-dependent. For optical smoke detectors, modes relate to combinations of smoke response threshold and response time. For heat detectors, modes relate to fixed temperature settings and sensitivity to the rate-of-rise of temperature. Multisensor detectors (optical/heat and CO/heat) combine responses from their respective sensors, with some modes offering 'smoke only', 'heat only', or 'CO only' responses. All response modes comply with EN 54 standards. The alarm threshold is consistently 55, regardless of the selected response mode, and the alarm flag is set when the analogue value exceeds 55. Detectors are factory-set to Mode 3 and retain this setting in non-volatile memory even when powered down.

**3. User Data and Memory**

Discovery devices incorporate non-volatile Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM) for operational data storage. Four bytes of this EEPROM are accessible to the user via the fire control panel's protocol, allowing storage of information such as installation date, site code, or last service date. The maximum number of write cycles for this memory is 10,000 over the device's lifetime.

**4. Visual Indicators and Test Features**

All Discovery detectors are equipped with two integral LED indicators that can be illuminated by the fire control panel to signal an alarm. An optional flashing LED mode can be enabled, causing the LEDs to flash each time the device is polled. Detectors are factory-set to non-flashing mode. A remote test feature allows the fire control panel to electrically force a detector into an alarm condition. Upon receiving the command, the detector returns an analogue value of 85 (for detectors) or 64 (for manual call points) if functioning correctly, which is sustained until the command is reset.

**5. False Alarm Management and Drift Compensation**

Discovery detector algorithms are designed to minimize false alarms by exhibiting low sensitivity to rapid changes in sensor output, which are typically not indicative of real fire conditions. This is achieved through digital low-pass filtering of sensor values. All Discovery smoke detectors include drift compensation, an internal signal-processing algorithm that maintains constant sensitivity despite environmental factors like dust accumulation in the sensing chamber. The compensation level is stored in the detector's memory (values 0-31, with 16 being normal). Values outside the 4-30 range trigger a warning flag, and a value of zero indicates a fault.

**6. Interchangeability and Servicing**

Discovery detectors are interchangeable within the range, allowing replacement of one type (e.g., smoke) with another (e.g., heat) if suitable for the application and within BS 5839-1 guidelines. They can also replace XP95 detectors, with factory-new Discovery detectors set to a mid-range sensitivity equivalent to XP95 and the flashing LED disabled. When replacing XP95 detectors with Discovery, the fire control panel configuration must be modified accordingly. A servicing note highlights that a delay in response may be apparent when testing detectors in situ (e.g., with aerosol test gas) due to internal signal processing.

SERVICING & DISPOSAL

SIMSYSTEM

We offer a service facility for Apollo detectors
and ancillary products, such as Interfaces and
Manual Call Points. This means that older models
of our detectors can be serviced (subject to being
within their recommended working life).

SimSystem (29600-164) is a tool for simulating loops of
detectors and interfaces in order to demonstrate a system
and approve the design without having to connect actual
products to a fire control panel. SimSystem consists
of a software programme which features an intuitive
graphical display and an interface which runs up to four
loops. A maximum of two interfaces can be connected,
allowing a system of up to eight loops to be simulated.

THE FOLLOWING SERVICES ARE OFFERED:
Detectors can be returned for a full clean and
recalibration so they work within the same
limits as newly-manufactured detectors
Manual Call Points, Interfaces and Audio
Visual products can be returned for
cleaning and testing to ensure they are still
functioning within manufacturing limits
 quipment which is found to be beyond
E
economical repair (BER) or is older than the
recommended working life can be disposed of

Analogue Addressable

Analogue
Addressable
Apollo offers three ranges of analogue addressable
systems – SOTERIA®, Discovery and XP95.
Apollo has been using an open, digital communication
protocol since 1986 and has ensured backward compatibility
when developing new products. An open protocol allows
freedom of choice for the fire system specifier, installer
and end user. A system using a digital communication
protocol has a high immunity from corruption and is
therefore often preferred in a system which is life-critical.

CHOICE OF DETECTOR TYPE

The choice of detector from the analogue addressable
range follows the well-established principles of
system design. That is, the optimum detector type will
depend on the type of fire risk and fire load, and the
type of environment in which the detector is sited.
For general use, smoke detectors are recommended since
these give the highest level of protection. Smoke detectors
from the analogue addressable range may be ionisation,
optical or multisensor types. The most widely used singlesensor detector is the optical smoke detector. For the
greatest versatility in designing fire detection systems,
the optical/heat multisensor is the detector of choice.

Apollo Product Guide


--- PAGE BREAK ---
There are two types of analogue addressable
systems – those with ‘distributed intelligence’
and those with ‘centralised intelligence’.
In systems with ‘distributed intelligence’, the
detectors incorporate processors which can
determine whether alarm levels of smoke or heat
exist and can initiate action accordingly.

www.apollo-fire.co.uk | +44 (0)23 9249 2412

Detectors in systems with ‘centralised intelligence’
monitor the air around them for smoke or heat
and transmit the data to the fire control panel on
interrogation. The processor in the panel compares
the values with stored values and determines whether
a pre-alarm or alarm should be signalled.
The advantages of ‘distributed intelligence’ are
local adaptation to the environment and reduction
of traffic on the supply and data wires.

Powered by

SOTERIA Dimension® Optical Smoke detectors are the new
unique low-profile detectors designed to blend seamlessly
with any environment. The new chamberless and flush-fitting
optical detectors use new patented optical sensing technology
in the form of a ‘virtual sensing chamber’, combining
functionality and style with innovation. A specialist version is
available for use in custodial and care environments which has
been designed to meet the requirements of STD/E/SPEC/038
and independently certified to DHF TS001 for anti-ligature use
in specialist areas.
Approved to EN54-7, the chamberless design of SOTERIA
Dimension results in several benefits to the end user. As it
senses smoke outside of the detector, it has the potential
to detect smoke earlier without the added delay of smoke
entering the chamber as in standard detection devices. The
lack of a chamber is also beneficial in terms of reducing dust
which affects the sensitivity of a device, and the ingress of
insects and foreign matter. Finally, the device is less sensitive
to artificial light source variations and provides a highly
consistent test result because air disturbance doesn’t affect
the device’s operation. These factors lead to a reduction in
the potential for false alarms: the device automatically enters
fault mode if any factors which usually cause false alarms are
detected.

reliable detection and false alarm management
through a combination of EN 54 approved operating
modes and sophisticated algorithms. Discovery has a
‘distributed intelligence’ system, where decisions are
made in the detector head as well as the fire control
panel. Drift compensation is also incorporated into
the detector, allowing it to adapt to dirty or dusty
environments which reduces false alarms.

18

Each detector in the Discovery range can operate in one
of five approved response modes which can be selected
from the fire control panel or hand-held programmer.
The response characteristics have been carefully set so
that the detectors comply with the requirements of the
relevant part of EN 54 in all response modes. Mode One
will give a higher sensitivity to fire than Mode Five.
Designed for use in medium to large applications
with specific system requirements, Discovery
gives you total reassurance in installations where
adaptability to changing conditions and protection
against unwanted alarms is paramount.

## Complete Wiring Diagrams and Terminal Descriptions

Where outgoing and return cables of a loop circuit cover more than the equivalent of one zone, they must not run together. Physical separation and high mechanical protection are required. Consideration for lightning protection devices is needed where loop cable is mounted to an external wall or between two buildings. All earth connection points should be clean for good electrical conductivity. The loop cable screen must be continued through each system device. Do not use the building structure for earthing [2].

The Mains Supply Cable must be a standard fire-resisting type and meet PH30 classification. Approved cable must be used for the Loop circuit, Master alarm circuit, Auxiliary relay circuit, Input/output circuit, and Mains supply. The recommended cable is Mineral insulated cable (MICC) to BS6207:Part 1. Alternative enhanced loop cables (EMC Compliant) include Draka Firetuf FT120 Enhanced FTPLUS2EH1.5RD, Datwyler Pyrofil Enhanced, and Prysmian FP PLUS.

## Commissioning Steps

The power-up of the control panel and commissioning of the system is done by the Servicing organisation. Installation of all outstanding parts and panel power-up is usually carried out during system commissioning [2].

Information required prior to commissioning includes “As-fitted” drawings detailing all devices installed and the sequence they are connected on each loop, a copy of the Design specification with Variations, a Label schedule per loop detailing address details for each device that have been agreed with the building user and cross-referenced to “as-fitted” drawings, and a Cause & Effect schedule. The system will need to be set up to a predetermined Cause & Effect, which needs to be confirmed in writing or in the form of a Cause & Effect matrix [1].

## Common Fault Diagnosis

The Vigilon Loop Diagnostic Tool can be used to diagnose loop circuits driven by Post March 2014 Loop Cards (VIG-LPC-EN) fitted in the panel [2].

## Compliance Standards Met

The Vigilon Plus Control Panel is designed to EN54-2:1997 + A1:2006, including optional clauses 7.8, 7.9, 7.9.1, 7.10, 7.10.1, 7.11, 7.12.3, 8.3, 9.5, and 10.

The Mains Supply Cable should meet PH30 classification. MICC Cable must be to BS6207:Part 1. Network Cables such as Belden Armoured equivalent must be to BS5308:Part 1 (type 2). Fire resistance is tested to BS6387 category CWZ and IEC 331 for Huber & Schner Radox series FR communication cable [1] [2].

## Any Other Technical Detail You Find

The S-Quad Self-Test (S4T) Series features a new IP21 external moulding, a new detector chamber design, and a dual microprocessor PCB. The award-winning Self-Test feature allows both heat and optical sensors to be tested using the CLSS app. Self-Test performs real sensor tests by heating the heat sensing thermistor and generating real aerosol (smoke) to test the optical sensor. It incorporates Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for automatic detection by a mobile device using the CLSS app. Key Self-Test & CLSS Features include discrete functional testing and visual inspection, reducing the engineer toolset to a mobile device. It tests both heat and smoke sensors by heating the thermistor and introducing smoke, then gently blows smoke out of the detection chamber and smoke entry points to ensure they are not blocked. Flexible testing options allow testing of a single device, detection zone, loop(s), or panel(s). Up to 6 devices can be tested at once per loop, and any number of loops simultaneously. Device testing is fast enough for up to 4 functional tests per year. It eliminates access issues, ensuring 100% functional testing. The system remains active during testing; each detector is offline for only 60 seconds, and no outputs are generated. Fires detected outside Self-Test stop the process and operate Cause & Effect. The engineer can easily locate the detector using the App and BLE to check the device number, label, zone description, and detector type. Simple device updates can be performed through the App, including the correction of inaccurate device labels and loop mapping. The App and BLE handshake verifies engineer presence within visual inspection range. Optional Inspection prompt LEDs on the device indicate which Self-Test devices need visual inspection. Engineers can digitally capture non-compliance issues and advise on resolution. The Test Fire LED option in the App allows the fire LED to be tested (pending BS5839-1 requirement). The CLSS App allows simulation of fire and testing of Cause & Effect logic, and allows Cause & Effect to be triggered through successful Self-Test operation for witness testing with real smoke [1].

S4T System Requirements state that Self-Test features are compatible with Vigilon and Compact Plus panels only. They are backwards compatible as a detector and AV device only. MCB / MCC and loop cards will require firmware upgrades. It is only supported on current EN54 loop cards (not legacy loop cards). It requires a CLSS gateway (1 per network domain) and the CLSS mobile app [1].

S4T Reporting and Monitoring generates a full compliance report on completion of testing. The number of Self-Tests consumed per device is captured through CLSS. Reports identify how devices were tested (manually or Self-Test) and visually inspected (with or without BLE). Corrective actions are captured in reports [1].

Vigilon Plus Panel Features include analogue addressable fire detection and alarm control, supporting up to four or six loop circuits per panel. Up to 200 addressable devices can be connected to a loop circuit (sensors, MCPs, interface units). It has two master alarm circuits, optional RS485 to connect to a Repeat Indicator panel, optional RS232 to connect to another control panel (domain bridge) or external printer, USB for commissioning tool connection, and an SD card for configuration and events log. It features two sets of auxiliary relay change over contacts configurable to operate with fire, fault, or disablement events, and one set of clean voltage-free change over contacts that operates with fire events. A standby supply powers the system during mains failure. It has an LCD alphanumeric display with back light to show event information, integral 32 zone LED indicators (with First fire steady / flashing or disable integral zone indication’s options), LED lights for event indication, a local buzzer to announce events, push buttons for essential controls and menu options, four programmable control buttons (U1 to U4), Fire Alarm Routing Active and Fault/Disable LED indications, and a remote battery box (for VIGPLUS-72 panel only) [2].

Vigilon Plus Panel Indicators include Fire (red), 32 Zones (red) hidden till lit, Verify (amber), FARE Active (red), FARE Fault/Dis (amber), Power (green), Fault (amber), Disablement (amber), System fault (amber), Power fault (amber), Sounder (amber), Test (amber), and Delay (amber) [2].

## Commissioning Steps

The power-up of the control panel and commissioning of the system is done by the Servicing organisation. Installation of all outstanding parts and panel power-up is usually carried out during system commissioning [2].

Information required prior to commissioning includes “As-fitted” drawings detailing all devices installed and the sequence they are connected on each loop, a copy of the Design specification with Variations, a Label schedule per loop detailing address details for each device that have been agreed with the building user and cross-referenced to “as-fitted” drawings, and a Cause & Effect schedule. The system will need to be set up to a predetermined Cause & Effect, which needs to be confirmed in writing or in the form of a Cause & Effect matrix [1].

## Common Fault Diagnosis

The Vigilon Loop Diagnostic Tool can be used to diagnose loop circuits driven by Post March 2014 Loop Cards (VIG-LPC-EN) fitted in the panel [2].

## Compliance Standards Met

The Vigilon Plus Control Panel is designed to EN54-2:1997 + A1:2006, including optional clauses 7.8, 7.9, 7.9.1, 7.10, 7.10.1, 7.11, 7.12.3, 8.3, 9.5, and 10. The Power Supply is designed to EN54-4 : 1997 + A1:2002 and A2:2006. Heat Sensors comply with BS EN 54-5, and Smoke Sensors comply with BS EN 54-7. Cables must meet British Standard BS 5839 Part 1 : 2017 Code of practice for system design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance, which states the requirements for standard and fire-resisting cables in Clause 26.2 sections d & e. The Mains Supply Cable should meet PH30 classification. MICC Cable must be to BS6207:Part 1. Network Cables such as Belden Armoured equivalent must be to BS5308:Part 1 (type 2). Fire resistance is tested to BS6387 category CWZ and IEC 331 for Huber & Schner Radox series FR communication cable [1] [2].

## Any Other Technical Detail You Find

The S-Quad Self-Test (S4T) Series features a new IP21 external moulding, a new detector chamber design, and a dual microprocessor PCB. The award-winning Self-Test feature allows both heat and optical sensors to be tested using the CLSS app. Self-Test performs real sensor tests by heating the heat sensing thermistor and generating real aerosol (smoke) to test the optical sensor. It incorporates Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for automatic detection by a mobile device using the CLSS app. Key Self-Test & CLSS Features include discrete functional testing and visual inspection, reducing the engineer toolset to a mobile device. It tests both heat and smoke sensors by heating the thermistor and introducing smoke, then gently blows smoke out of the detection chamber and smoke entry points to ensure they are not blocked. Flexible testing options allow testing of a single device, detection zone, loop(s), or panel(s). Up to 6 devices can be tested at once per loop, and any number of loops simultaneously. Device testing is fast enough for up to 4 functional tests per year. It eliminates access issues, ensuring 100% functional testing. The system remains active during testing; each detector is offline for only 60 seconds, and no outputs are generated. Fires detected outside Self-Test stop the process and operate Cause & Effect. The engineer can easily locate the detector using the App and BLE to check the device number, label, zone description, and detector type. Simple device updates can be performed through the App, including the correction of inaccurate device labels and loop mapping. The App and BLE handshake verifies engineer presence within visual inspection range. Optional Inspection prompt LEDs on the device indicate which Self-Test devices need visual inspection. Engineers can digitally capture non-compliance issues and advise on resolution. The Test Fire LED option in the App allows the fire LED to be tested (pending BS5839-1 requirement). The CLSS App allows simulation of fire and testing of Cause & Effect logic, and allows Cause & Effect to be triggered through successful Self-Test operation for witness testing with real smoke [1].

S4T System Requirements state that Self-Test features are compatible with Vigilon and Compact Plus panels only. They are backwards compatible as a detector and AV device only. MCB / MCC and loop cards will require firmware upgrades. It is only supported on current EN54 loop cards (not legacy loop cards). It requires a CLSS gateway (1 per network domain) and the CLSS mobile app [1].

S4T Reporting and Monitoring generates a full compliance report on completion of testing. The number of Self-Tests consumed per device is captured through CLSS. Reports identify how devices were tested (manually or Self-Test) and visually inspected (with or without BLE). Corrective actions are captured in reports [1].

Vigilon Plus Panel Features include analogue addressable fire detection and alarm control, supporting up to four or six loop circuits per panel. Up to 200 addressable devices can be connected to a loop circuit (sensors, MCPs, interface units). It has two master alarm circuits, optional RS485 to connect to a Repeat Indicator panel, optional RS232 to connect to another control panel (domain bridge) or external printer, USB for commissioning tool connection, and an SD card for configuration and events log. It features two sets of auxiliary relay change over contacts configurable to operate with fire, fault, or disablement events, and one set of clean voltage-free change over contacts that operates with fire events. A standby supply powers the system during mains failure. It has an LCD alphanumeric display with back light to show event information, integral 32 zone LED indicators (with First fire steady / flashing or disable integral zone indication’s options), LED lights for event indication, a local buzzer to announce events, push buttons for essential controls and menu options, four programmable control buttons (U1 to U4), Fire Alarm Routing Active and Fault/Disable LED indications, and a remote battery box (for VIGPLUS-72 panel only) [2].

Vigilon Plus Panel Indicators include Fire (red), 32 Zones (red) hidden till lit, Verify (amber), FARE Active (red), FARE Fault/Dis (amber), Power (green), Fault (amber), Disablement (amber), System fault (amber), Power fault (amber), Sounder (amber), Test (amber), and Delay (amber) [2].

Fire Alarm & Emergency Communication System Limitations
While a life safety system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for life and property insurance!
An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke
detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning
devices, and a fire alarm control panel (FACP) with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire.
Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
An emergency communication system—typically made up of an
automatic fire alarm system (as described above) and a life safety
communication system that may include an autonomous control
unit (ACU), local operating console (LOC), voice communication,
and other various inter-operable communication methods—can
broadcast a mass notification message. Such a system, however,
does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life
resulting from a fire or life safety event.
The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors
be located throughout a protected premises following the
recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire
Protection Association Standard 72 (NFPA 72), manufacturer's
recommendations, State and local codes, and the
recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use of System
Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge to all
installing dealers. This document can be found at http://
www.systemsensor.com/appguides/. A study by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (an agency of the United States
government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as
many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to
provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or
protection against fire. A fire alarm system may not provide timely
or adequate warning, or simply may not function, for a variety of
reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach
the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on roofs, or
on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not
sense a fire on another level or floor of a building. A second-floor
detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.
Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may
not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:
• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, chimneys, even wet or humid areas may inhibit particle or smoke
flow.
• Smoke particles may become “cold,” stratify, and not reach the
ceiling or upper walls where detectors are located.
• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air outlets, such as air conditioning vents.
• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching
the detector.
The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm smoke
detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels
of smoke density. If such density levels are not created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will not go into
alarm.
Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limitations. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing chambers tend
to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which have little
visible smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers
tend to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires.
Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable
in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a
given type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire.
Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning
of fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially
in bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions (caused by
escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

2

Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm
only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate
or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may
be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the
rate-of-rise feature of each detector should be tested at least once
per year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are
designed to protect property, not life.
IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same
room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the
connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a developing fire
may damage the alarm system, compromising its ability to report a
fire.
Audible warning devices such as bells, horns, strobes, speakers and displays may not alert people if these devices are located
on the other side of closed or partly open doors or are located on
another floor of a building. Any warning device may fail to alert people with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs,
alcohol, or medication. Please note that:
• An emergency communication system may take priority over a
fire alarm system in the event of a life safety emergency.
• Voice messaging systems must be designed to meet intelligibility requirements as defined by NFPA, local codes, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
• Language and instructional requirements must be clearly disseminated on any local displays.
• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in
people with conditions such as epilepsy.
• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a
fire alarm signal, do not respond to or comprehend the meaning
of the signal. Audible devices, such as horns and bells, can
have different tonal patterns and frequencies. It is the property
owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training
exercises to make people aware of fire alarm signals and
instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.
• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause
temporary or permanent hearing loss.
A life safety system will not operate without any electrical power. If
AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries only
for a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly
maintained and replaced regularly.
Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible
with the control panel. It is essential to use only equipment listed for
service with your control panel.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises
to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily
disabled. For added protection against telephone line failure,
backup radio transmission systems are recommended.
The most common cause of life safety system malfunction is inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire life safety system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per the
manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards. At
a minimum, the requirements of NFPA 72 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt, or high air velocity
require more frequent maintenance. A maintenance agreement
should be arranged through the local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should be scheduled monthly or as required by
National and/or local fire codes and should be performed by authorized professional life safety system installers only. Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.

Installation Precautions
Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:
WARNING - Several different sources of power can be
connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all
sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated
equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting
cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is
energized. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this
unit until manuals are read and understood.
CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after Software
Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product
must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or change in site-specific software. Reacceptance testing is required after any change, addition or
deletion of system components, or after any modification,
repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring. All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions
known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested. In
addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently
affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not directly
affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, must
also be tested and proper system operation verified.
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0-49º
C/32-120º F and at a relative humidity. However, the useful
life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely affected by extreme temperature
ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that this
system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with
a normal room temperature of 15-27º C/60-80º F.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a
10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may
operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely
immune from lightning transients and interference, proper
grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside
aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Services Department if any problems are anticipated or
encountered.
Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or
inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.
Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling, filing,
reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make
all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer, or printed circuit board location.
Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. Overtightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal
contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
This system contains static-sensitive components.
Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the
body. Use static suppressive packaging to protect electronic
assemblies removed from the unit.
Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and
programming manuals. These instructions must be followed to
avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment.
FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.

•
•

The 6700 has one built in signaling line circuit (SLC) that supports 50 SK detectors and 50 SK modules or 50 SD protocol devices.
The 6700 is capable of outputting 2.5A of output power during alarm activation through 2 sets of terminals for notification
appliance circuits or auxiliary application. Each circuit is power limited per UL 864 and can source up to 2.5A during alarm
activation. The constant auxiliary power load must not exceed 1A for normal standby.

NOTE: Total output power for both circuits must not exceed 2.5A in alarm condition, and total output power for both circuits must not
exceed 1.0A for all other activation conditions (i.e. Supervisory, Trouble, etc.).

NOTE: The system can support a maximum of eight intelligent power modules, either the 5895XL or 5496, in any combination.

1.1.2 Common Communication / Annunciation Link System Hardware Features
The common communications and annunciation link allows up to 17 of the 6700, 6808, 6820, and 6820EVS panels to be connected via
copper or fiber optic cable so that a designated panel is the communicator for all panels in the link. This is not a true peer-to-peer network and will not perform like one.
•
The default Common communications link setup can contain up to 17- 6700 panels connected.
•
The Common communications link has support for up to 17 Sites.
•
Each building is referred to as a “site”.
•
Panels can be interconnected using CLASS B or CLASS A topology.
•
Use the SK-NIC Network Interface Card as a common communications link. Copper wire or fiber optic cable panel connectivity
can be used within the same linked system.
•
The common communication and annunciation architecture allows a designated panel to be the communicator for all the panels in
the link.

3.5 Wiring Specifications
Induced noise (transfer of electrical energy from one wire to another) can interfere with telephone communication or cause false alarms.
To avoid induced noise, follow these guidelines:
•
Isolate input wiring from high current output and power wiring. Do not pull one multi-conductor cable for the entire panel. Instead,
separate the wiring as follows:
High voltage

AC power Terminals

SLC loops
Audio input/output

Phone line circuits

Notification circuits

NAC1 through NAC2

SBUS
Relay circuits

•
•

Do not pull wires from different groups through the same conduit. If you must run them together, do so for as short a distance as
possible or use shielded cable. Connect the shield to earth ground at the panel. You must route high and low voltages separately.
Route the wiring around the inside perimeter of the cabinet. It should not cross the circuit board where it could induce noise into the
sensitive microelectronics or pick up unwanted RF noise from the high speed circuits. See Figure 3.1 for an example.

6700 Manual — P/N LS10148-001SK-E::C 09/28/2017

--- PAGE BREAK ---
•

High frequency noise, such as that produced by the inductive reactance of a speaker or bell, can also be reduced by running the wire
through ferrite shield beads or by wrapping it around a ferrite toroid.

3.7 Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery
This section is for helping you determine the current draw and standby battery needs if you are using SK addressable devices (Table 3.5).

3.7.1 Current Draw Worksheet Requirements
The following steps must be taken when determining 6700 current draw and standby battery requirements.
1. For the 6700, the worst case current draw is listed for the panel, addressable devices, and all SBUS expanders. Fill in the number of
addressable devices that will be used in the system and compute the current draw requirements for alarm and standby. Record this
information in the Current Calculation Worksheet at Line A.
2. Add up the current draw for all auxiliary devices and record in the table at Line B.
3. Add up all notification appliance loads and record in the table at Line C.
4. For notification appliance circuits and auxiliary devices not mentioned in the manual, refer to the device manual for the current
ratings.
5. Make sure that the total alarm current you calculated, including current for the panel itself, does not exceed 2.5A. This is the
maximum alarm current for the 6700 control panel.
If the current is above 2.5A you will need to use a notification power expander(s) such as the 5496 NAC Expander, to distribute the
power loads so that the 6700 or the power expanders do not exceed their power rating. Refer to the current draw worksheets
provided with the 5496 manual so you do not exceed their power requirements.
6. Complete the remaining instructions in the Current Calculation Worksheet for determining battery size requirements.

If using door holders, you do not need to consider door holder current for alarm/battery standby, because power is removed
during that time. However, during normal operation, door holders draw current and must be included in the 2.5A total alarm
current (1.0A for all other conditions) that can be drawn from the panel.
Use next size battery with capacity greater than required.
SK-Beam-T draws a maximum of 500mA from auxiliary power only when the test feature is used. This should be considered
when determining auxiliary power capacity but not calculated into current requirements for day to day operation.
The SK-Duct housing contains a vacant mount for a SK-Relay (sold separately). Current draw for the SK-Relay is calculated
by increasing the SK-Relay row of the calculation sheet by one for each SK-Relay used with a SK-Duct.
The FACP can only support 5 devices w/LED’s on. This current draw has been added to the panels alarm current.

Section 4: Control Panel Installation
!

CAUTION:
TO AVOID THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND DAMAGE TO THE UNIT, POWER SHOULD BE OFF AT THE
CONTROL PANEL WHILE INSTALLING OR SERVICING.

4.1 Mounting the Control Panel Cabinet
Read the environmental specifications in Section 3.2 before mounting the 6700 panel.
The 6700 cabinet base dimensions are: 12.531” W x 14.875” H.
The 6700 panel should be located within a secured area, where it is accessible to main drop wiring runs and where it can be easily tested
and serviced. End-users responsible for maintaining the panel should be able to hear alarms and troubles. When selecting a location,
keep in mind that the panel itself is the main source of alarm and trouble annunciation.
When mounting on interior walls, use appropriate screw anchors in plaster. When mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is
expected, attach a piece of ¾” plywood to the concrete surface and then attach the 6700 to the plywood. Also mount any other desired
components to the plywood.
DO NOT flush-mount the 6700 cabinet in a wall designated as a fire break.
12.531"

14.875"

Figure 4.3 6700 Cabinet

4.1.1 Preventing Water Damage
Water damage to the fire system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet through the conduits. Conduits that are installed to enter
the top of the cabinet are most likely to cause water problems. Installers should take reasonable precautions to prevent water from entering the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under warranty.

4.1.2 Removing the 6700 Assembly from the Housing
If it should ever be necessary to remove the control panel assembly from the cabinet for repair, do so by removing the screws that hold
the control panel in to the cabinet. Do not attempt to disassemble the circuit boards.

4.1.3 Dead Front Installation and removal
This section provides instructions to install and or remove the optional dead front (DF-50) for the control panel cabinet.

4.3.1 Battery Accessory Cabinet
The Model RBB Accessory cabinet can be used when your backup batteries requirements use backup batteries that are too large to fit
into the main control panel cabinet. The RBB cabinet holds batteries up to the 35 AH size. The RBB dimensions are 16" W x 10" H x 6"
D (40.64 cm W x 25.4 cm H x 15.24 cm D).

Installing the RBB Accessory Cabinet and Batteries
To properly install the accessory cabinet and backup batteries, follow these steps:
1. Mount the accessory cabinet. See Figure 4.7 for the four cabinet mounting holes.
• If mounting onto drywall the accessory cabinet must be mounted onto 3/4-inch plywood. This is necessary because the weight of
the batteries inside the accessory cabinet could cause the cabinet to pull away from the drywall.
• When mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is expected, attach a piece of ¾” plywood to the concrete surface and
then attach the RBB cabinet to the plywood.
• If using the battery cable extenders provided (P/N 140643), mount the RBB cabinet no more than 18" away from the main
control panel cabinet. This will ensure that the battery cables reach the battery terminals.

4.4 SBUS Wiring
This section contains information on calculating SBUS wire distances and the types of wiring configurations (Class B).

4.4.1 Calculating Wiring distance for SBUS modules
The following instructions will guide you in determining the type of wire and the maximum wiring distance that can be used with control
panel SBUS accessory modules.

--- PAGE BREAK ---
To calculate the wire gauge that must be used to connect SBUS modules to the control panel, it is necessary to calculate the total worst
case current draw for all modules on a single 4-conductor bus. The total worst case current draw is calculated by adding the individual
worst case currents for each module. The individual worst case values are shown in the table below.
NOTE: Total worst case current draw on a single SBUS cannot exceed 1 amp.

After calculating the total worst case current draw, Table 4.9 specifies the maximum distance the modules can be located from the panel
on a single wire run. The table insures 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, regardless of gauge used.

## Installation

### Safety

Suppliers of articles for use at work are required under section 6 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to ensure as reasonably as is practical that the article will be safe and without risk to health when properly used. An article is not regarded as properly used if it is used “without regard to any relevant information or advice” relating to its use made available by the supplier. It is assumed that the system, of which this control panel is a part, has been designed by a competent fire alarm system designer in accordance with IMO FSS Code and with regard to BS EN 54 parts 2 and 4 in the case of control equipment and power supplies. Design drawings should be provided to clearly show the position of any field devices and ancillary equipment. This product should be installed, commissioned and maintained by, or under the supervision of, competent persons according to good engineering practice and, (i) Codes of Practice (ii) Statutory requirements (iii) Any instructions specifically advised by the manufacturer. According to the provisions of the Code you are therefore requested to take such steps as are necessary to ensure that any appropriate information about this product is made available by you to anyone concerned with its use. This equipment is designed to be operated from 230V AC 50/60 Hz mains supplies and is of Class I construction. As such it must be connected to a protective earthing conductor in the fixed wiring of the installation. Failure to ensure that all conductive accessible parts of this equipment are adequately bonded to the protective earth will render the equipment unsafe. This equipment must only be installed and maintained by a suitably skilled and technically competent person. **THIS IS A PIECE OF CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT AND MUST BE EARTHED**. These panels are designed to comply with the requirements of EN 54 part 2. Installation of the panel should only be carried out by qualified personnel. The electronic components within the panel can be damaged by static charge. Suitable precautions must be taken when handling circuit boards. Never insert or remove boards or components, or connect cables, with the mains power on or batteries connected.

This equipment is not guaranteed unless the complete system is installed and commissioned in accordance with the laid down national standards by an approved and competent person or organisation. This product has been manufactured in conformance with the requirements of all applicable EU Council Directives.

### ESD Precautions

Electronic components are vulnerable to damage by Electrostatic Discharges (ESD). An ESD wrist strap, suitably grounded, should be worn at all times when handling pcbs. These wrist straps are designed to prevent the build up of static charges, not only within a persons body, but on many other materials. ESD damage is not always evident immediately, faults can manifest themselves at anytime in the future. All pcbs should be stored in static shielded bags (silvered) for safe keeping, when not mounted in the control panel.

### General Installation Notes

Care should be taken with regards to avoiding the close proximity of high voltage cables or areas likely to induce electrical interference. Earth links should be maintained on all system cables and grounded in the control panel. The detection and sounder circuit cabling is classed as extra low voltage and must be segregated away from mains voltage.

* Any junction boxes used should be clearly labelled FIRE ALARM.
* Any ancillary devices, e.g. door retaining magnets, must be powered from a separate power source.
* Any coils or solenoids used in the system must be suppressed, to avoid damage to the control equipment.

### Mounting the Cabinet

The panel is only suitable for mounting in dry control rooms or dry accomodation spaces. The site chosen for the location of the panel should be clean, dry and not subject to shock or vibration. Damp, salt air or environments where water ingress or extremes of temperature may affect the panel must be avoided. The temperature should be in the range -5° to +55°C, and the relative humidity should not exceed 95%. Before mounting the cabinet remove the main PCB. Remove the power supply module connecting wires from the main PCB, taking care to note where to re-connect them. The main PCB can then be carefully pulled off it’s mounting clips. Secure the cabinet to the wall using the four indented holes in the back box. Ensure the box is mounted level and in a convenient location where it may be easily operated and serviced. External cables should be glanded.

### Mains Connections

(Refer to manual for detailed diagram)

* Mains input is 230V AC 50/60Hz.
* Connect Live (L), Neutral (N), and Earth (E) to the appropriate terminals.
* The mains supply must be protected by a double pole switch fuse spur rated at 3A, located adjacent to the panel.
* The mains supply must be dedicated to the fire alarm system and clearly labelled.

### Connecting the Batteries

(Refer to manual for detailed diagram)

* Connect the batteries as shown in the manual, observing polarity.
* Use 2 x 12V 7.0Ah VRLA batteries (Yuasa NP range recommended).
* Ensure fire-rated batteries are used.

ESP Protocol

ESP (Enhanced System Protocol) is Hochiki's main protocol for analogue addressable systems. ESP devices communicate with the panel using a digital polling protocol. Each device has a unique address (1–126) set by DIP switches on the device.

Addressing Hochiki ESP Devices

Remove the device from its base.
Locate the DIP switch array on the back of the device (typically 7 switches for addresses 1–126).
Set the address in binary using the DIP switches (refer to device datasheet).
Switch 1 = 1, Switch 2 = 2, Switch 3 = 4, Switch 4 = 8, Switch 5 = 16, Switch 6 = 32, Switch 7 = 64.
Example: Address 5 = Switches 1 and 3 ON (1+4=5).
Refit the device to its base.
Verify address is recognised by the panel.

ALG-E	Optical smoke detector	Forward scatter optical chamber	Standard optical — most applications
ACA-E	Multi-sensor	Optical + heat	Reduced false alarms
ATJ-E	Fixed heat	58°C or 78°C	Kitchens, plant rooms

YBO-E	Manual call point	Break glass MCP	Standard MCP
CCP-E	Zone monitor	Conventional zone interface	For conventional devices on addressable loop
SCI-E	Sounder	Loop-powered sounder	—

DCP Protocol

DCP (Digital Communication Protocol) is Hochiki's newer protocol, used with the FireNET and Latitude panels. DCP devices have improved diagnostics and faster response times compared to ESP.

Sensitivity and Alarm Thresholds

Hochiki detector sensitivity is set at the panel. The panel sends sensitivity commands to each device. Typical settings: Normal (standard), High (increased sensitivity), Low (reduced for dusty environments). Drift compensation is automatic.

The Hochiki DCP-FRCME-M Fast Response Contact
Monitoring Modules are designed to be used with pull
stations, water flow switches, and other applications
requiring the monitoring of dry contact devices. The
interrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)
combines maximum communication reliability and fast
response to emergency conditions. The DCP-FRCMEM contact monitoring module does not require a separate 24 VDC power source.
Each addressable contact monitoring module is
programmed with its own unique Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC) loop address. The device address is
electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPFRCME-M, it sends an interrupt to the control panel
indicating that an alarm has occurred.
The DCP-FRCME-M is small design and is suitable for
mounting in a single gang box.

The Hochiki DCP-FRCME-P Fast Response Contact
Monitoring Modules are designed to be used with pull
stations, water flow switches, and other applications
requiring the monitoring of dry contact devices. The
interrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)
combines maximum communication reliability and fast
response to emergency conditions. The DCP-FRCMEP contact monitoring module does not require a separate 24 VDC power source.
Each addressable contact monitoring module is
programmed with its own unique Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC) loop address. The device address is
electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPFRCME-P, it sends an interrupt to the control panel
indicating that an alarm has occurred.
The DCP-FRCME-P is small design and is suitable for
mounting in a single gang box.

## Aln V 02 2024

ALN-V PHOTOELECTRIC SMOKE SENSOR
APPLICATIONS
The Hochiki ALN-V Photoelectric Smoke Sensor is particularly
suited to detecting optically dense smoke typical of fires
involving materials such as soft furnishings, plastic, foam or
other similar materials which tend to smolder and produce
large visible smoke particles. Hochiki's unique design allows
fast response to flaming fires as well as smoldering fires while
preventing false alarms.
OPERATION
STANDARD FEATURES

• Low profile - only 2.00" high, including base
• Simple and reliable device addressing
• Automatic compensation for sensor contamination
• Built-in fire test feature
• Uses the noise-immune Digital Communication

The detection chamber consists of a light-emitting diode
(LED) and photodiode arrangement. The chamber is designed
such that light emitted by the LED cannot normally reach the
photo diode. In the event of fire, particles of smoke enter the
chamber and scatter the light. As the smoke level increases,
the scattering effect increases, causing more light to hit the
photodiode. The chamber contains a unique baffle design
which allows smoke to enter the chamber while preventing
external light from affecting the photodiode. The photodiode
input level is sampled to sense smoke density.
When the smoke density exceeds a preset threshold the
sensor transmits an interrupt to the fire control panel indicating a fire condition. The fire alarm control panel can adjust the
sensor threshold to compensate for contamination.

The Hochiki DCP-DIMM Dual Input Monitor Module is
designed to be used with pull stations, water flow switches,
and other applications requiring the monitoring of dry
contact devices. The interrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP) combines maximum communication
reliability and fast response to emergency conditions. The
DCP-DIMM contact monitoring module does not require a
separate 24 VDC power source.
Each addressable contact monitoring module is
programmed with its own unique Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC) loop address. The device address is
electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPDIMM, it sends an interrupt to the control panel
indicating that an alarm has occurred.
The DCP-DIMM is small design and is suitable for
mounting in a single gang box.

The Hochiki DCP-FRCME-M Fast Response Contact
Monitoring Modules are designed to be used with pull
stations, water flow switches, and other applications
requiring the monitoring of dry contact devices. The
interrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)
combines maximum communication reliability and fast
response to emergency conditions. The DCP-FRCMEM contact monitoring module does not require a separate 24 VDC power source.
Each addressable contact monitoring module is
programmed with its own unique Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC) loop address. The device address is
electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPFRCME-M, it sends an interrupt to the control panel
indicating that an alarm has occurred.
The DCP-FRCME-M is small design and is suitable for
mounting in a single gang box.

The Hochiki DCP-SCI Short Circuit Isolator Module is
designed to protect the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) from
short circuits. In the event of a short circuit, the DCP-SCI
will isolate the affected section of the loop, allowing the
remainder of the system to continue operating normally.
This helps to minimize system downtime and ensures
that critical fire alarm functions remain operational. The
DCP-SCI communicates with the fire alarm control panel
using Hochiki’s Digital Communication Protocol (DCP),
providing fast and reliable communication. The module is
small and compact, making it suitable for mounting in a
single gang electrical box.

The Hochiki DCP-FRCME-P Fast Response Contact
Monitoring Modules are designed to be used with pull
stations, water flow switches, and other applications
requiring the monitoring of dry contact devices. The
interrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)
combines maximum communication reliability and fast
response to emergency conditions. The DCP-FRCMEP contact monitoring module does not require a separate 24 VDC power source.
Each addressable contact monitoring module is
programmed with its own unique Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC) loop address. The device address is
electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPFRCME-P, it sends an interrupt to the control panel
indicating that an alarm has occurred.
The DCP-FRCME-P is small design and is suitable for
mounting in a single gang box.

## Aln V 02 2024

ALN-V PHOTOELECTRIC SMOKE SENSOR
APPLICATIONS
The Hochiki ALN-V Photoelectric Smoke Sensor is particularly
suited to detecting optically dense smoke typical of fires
involving materials such as soft furnishings, plastic, foam or
other similar materials which tend to smolder and produce
large visible smoke particles. Hochiki's unique design allows
fast response to flaming fires as well as smoldering fires while
preventing false alarms.
OPERATION
STANDARD FEATURES

• Low profile - only 2.00" high, including base
• Simple and reliable device addressing
• Automatic compensation for sensor contamination
• Built-in fire test feature
• Uses the noise-immune Digital Communication
Protocol (DCP), which utilizes interrupts for fast
response to fires

The detection chamber consists of a light-emitting diode
(LED) and photodiode arrangement. The chamber is designed
such that light emitted by the LED cannot normally reach the
photo diode. In the event of fire, particles of smoke enter the
chamber and scatter the light. As the smoke level increases,
the scattering effect increases, causing more light to hit the
photodiode. The chamber contains a unique baffle design
which allows smoke to enter the chamber while preventing
external light from affecting the photodiode. The photodiode
input level is sampled to sense smoke density.
When the smoke density exceeds a preset threshold the
sensor transmits an interrupt to the fire control panel indicating a fire condition. The fire alarm control panel can adjust the
sensor threshold to compensate for contamination.
Up to 127 devices are permitted on each SLC loop. A sensor
address is set by a hand-held programming unit. The sensor
mounts to an electronics-free base and incorporates a locking
mechanism for secure installation. The base provides mounting slots, terminals for field wiring and a third contact for a
remote indicator/LED. The sensor incorporates dual LEDs for
easy viewing of sensor status.
SENSOR SPACING
Smoke sensor spacing shall be in compliance with NFPA 72.
For smooth ceilings and in the absence of specific performance-based design criteria, the distance between smoke
sensors shall not exceed a nominal spacing of 30 ft. (9.1m) or
all points on the ceiling shall have a sensor within a distance
equal to or less than 0.7 times the nominal 30 ft. (9.1m)
spacing. Sensors shall be located within a distance of one-half
the nominal spacing, measured at right angles from all walls
or partitions extending upward to within the top 15 percent of
the ceiling height. For additional instructions see NFPA 72.

electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPDIMM, it sends an interrupt to the control panel

DESCRIPTION
The FireNET FN-4127-IO is a 16 channel Input/Output
board that provides powerful input/output expansion &
addition to the FireNET system allowing up to thirty two I/O
boards to be connected to each FireNET panel within the
FireNET network. Every I/O board connected to any panel
is available to the entire network, which allows for network
wide input/output mapping. Typical uses include graphical
LED map displays/annunciators, tabular LED zone display/
annunciators, input/output logic to & from the fire system
for secondary use (I/O board points cannot be used for
primary fire initiation inputs or notification outputs) such as
access control, burglar, CCTV, intercom, voice, or other 3rd
party systems. Each channel can be configured to produce
a variety of input actions or respond to a variety of output
categories or logic. All channels can trigger, or react from,
network wide cause and effect logic depending on their
configuration. The flexibility of these boards is further
enhanced by the fact that each of the channels is
configurable as either an input or an output. Connection
can be achieved through a simple two wire RS485
communications protocol and two wire power input. I/O
boards can be mounted locally in the control panel or
distributed on a bus up to 4,000ft from the panel when
using the FN-ACC accessory enclosure.

The Hochiki DCP-FRCME-M Fast Response Contact
Monitoring Modules are designed to be used with pull
stations, water flow switches, and other applications
requiring the monitoring of dry contact devices. The
interrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)
combines maximum communication reliability and fast
response to emergency conditions. The DCP-FRCMEM contact monitoring module does not require a separate 24 VDC power source.
Each addressable contact monitoring module is
programmed with its own unique Signaling Line
Circuit (SLC) loop address. The device address is
electrically programmable and stored in onboard
EEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on the
Hochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiring
to the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It can
be programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or
Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault condition
occurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble status
signal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of
status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCPFRCME-M, it sends an interrupt to the control panel
indicating that an alarm has occurred.
The DCP-FRCME-M is small design and is suitable for
mounting in a single gang box.

ZX Fire Alarm Control Panels

MORLEY-IAS

3.4.3 Detection Loops
•

The control panel supports analogue detectors with a digital, data transmission system. It
provides power and communicates with the initiating devices over a two-wire circuit.

EN54-2 13.7
EN54

Maximum of 512
sensors / MCPs
per panel.

!

•

Depending on protocol, it is possible for up to 1000 addressable input
points to be connected to the panel.

•

To comply with EN54-2 requirements, a maximum of 512 sensors /
MCPs (input points) only should be connected to the control panel
across all analogue detection loops (the limit for the ZX10Se is 1024 as
it comprises two ZX5Se FACPs). This limit includes any conventional
detectors / call points connected to the system via zone monitors.

The detection circuit should be separated from other cable runs to minimize the risk of
external interference. Under extremely noisy conditions, twisted pair wire is recommended
to reduce interference.
The Detection Loop Circuits are supervised and power limited.
•

Shielded cable should be used for all detection (SLC) circuits. It is important that the shield is
always terminated to a good earth connection at both ends of the loop. Mineral insulated copper
cable (MICC) is recommended for the best screening purposes. However, most of the established
brands of fire-related, screened cables are suitable. Refer to Section 3.4.13 for a list of
recommended cables.

•

The core size, length of wiring run and detection circuit loading will produce a voltage drop along
the length of the cable. To determine if the installed loop driver can fully support the planned loop
configuration, use the detector manufacturers’ calculations for voltage and capacitance.
ALWAYS check that conductors of appropriate diameter are used so that the voltage at
the detectors is within the detector manufacturer’s specification.
The maximum permitted impedance for the SLC Loop is dependent on the loop driver
card fitted and loop loading conditions. Please refer to the loop and battery calculator
tool for specific recommendations.

•

The following table lists the maximum recommended cable loop lengths for each detection loop
type. Wiring to external devices should follow the appropriate manufacturer’s instructions. Again,
refer to the loop and battery calculator tool for site-specific recommendations.

ZX Fire Alarm Control Panels

MORLEY-IAS

3.4.3 Detection Loops
•

The control panel supports analogue detectors with a digital, data transmission system. It
provides power and communicates with the initiating devices over a two-wire circuit.

EN54-2 13.7
EN54

Maximum of 512
sensors / MCPs
per panel.

!

•

Depending on protocol, it is possible for up to 1000 addressable input
points to be connected to the panel.

•

To comply with EN54-2 requirements, a maximum of 512 sensors /
MCPs (input points) only should be connected to the control panel
across all analogue detection loops (the limit for the ZX10Se is 1024 as
it comprises two ZX5Se FACPs). This limit includes any conventional
detectors / call points connected to the system via zone monitors.

The detection circuit should be separated from other cable runs to minimize the risk of
external interference. Under extremely noisy conditions, twisted pair wire is recommended
to reduce interference.
The Detection Loop Circuits are supervised and power limited.
•

Shielded cable should be used for all detection (SLC) circuits. It is important that the shield is
always terminated to a good earth connection at both ends of the loop. Mineral insulated copper
cable (MICC) is recommended for the best screening purposes. However, most of the established
brands of fire-related, screened cables are suitable. Refer to Section 3.4.13 for a list of
recommended cables.

•

The core size, length of wiring run and detection circuit loading will produce a voltage drop along
the length of the cable. To determine if the installed loop driver can fully support the planned loop
configuration, use the detector manufacturers’ calculations for voltage and capacitance.
ALWAYS check that conductors of appropriate diameter are used so that the voltage at
the detectors is within the detector manufacturer’s specification.
The maximum permitted impedance for the SLC Loop is dependent on the loop driver
card fitted and loop loading conditions. Please refer to the loop and battery calculator
tool for specific recommendations.

•

The following table lists the maximum recommended cable loop lengths for each detection loop
type. Wiring to external devices should follow the appropriate manufacturer’s instructions. Again,
refer to the loop and battery calculator tool for site-specific recommendations.

After an alarm or fault has occurred, press the MUTE BUZZER pushbutton to:

a. Accept the alarm or fault. The flashing FIRE or FAULT LEDs light steady.

b. Switch either the FIRE or FAULT internal buzzer from continuous to intermittent operation:
- FIRE buzzer at 12 seconds interval.
- FAULT buzzer at 2 minutes interval.

If both buzzers are sounding, the FIRE buzzer operates intermittently and the FAULT buzzer is silenced.

This mode of operation then continues until the system is RESET (FIRE and FAULT conditions latch).

### 4.3 Silence/Resound Sounders (Continued)

The term ‘silence’, as used throughout this manual, describes a temporary state the panel enters whenever the SILENCE/RESOUND pushbutton is pressed to stop the sounders operating. While the panel is in this state, a new fire alarm, or operation of the END DELAY/EVACUATE pushbutton, will re-sound all previously-silenced sounders.

To cancel all sounder output delays and all sounder outputs which are operating as a result of a FIRE alarm or an EVACUATE operation:

1. Press the SILENCE/RESOUND pushbutton. The following are not switched off by this operation:
a. The internal FIRE buzzer (except in the case detailed below).
b. Any external Control Modules that have been programmed not to be silenced by SILENCE/RESOUND.

To re-sound from fire only (does not work from evacuate):

2. To start the sounders again in the same pattern as they were previously operating, press the SILENCE/RESOUND pushbutton.

Note: SILENCE/RESOUND works for a fire condition only, not for an operation of the END DELAY/EVACUATE pushbutton.
Note: When the sounders are restarted, the internal fire sounder will also change back to steady mode of operation and you may have to press MUTE BUZZER again.

### 4.4 Reset the Panel (Continued)

To reset the system completely (except after an EVACUATE operation), press the RESET pushbutton. The following occurs:

a. All FIRE, PRE-ALARM and FAULT LEDs are switched off.

b. All sounders cease to operate (either steadily or intermittently).

c. A SYSTEM RESET message is displayed briefly.

d. The status returns to NORMAL.

e. Some internal tests are carried out: they will be completed within a few seconds.

External Control Modules will be switched off, even if they are programmed to not be silenced by SILENCE/RESOUND.

If an Alarm, Pre-Alarm or Fault is still present when RESET is pressed, it will be reported as if it were a completely new event with appropriate annunciation.

If a Fire is detected, the Fire tab is selected automatically to show the Fire Alarm Event Display:

a. ‘Fire ZONE’ field shows zone(s) in alarm (in this case zone 2), the number of devices in alarm in that zone (X2 = 2 devices) and the time at which the first alarm occurred in the zone. Network systems only: the panel number is also shown (e.g. P0 for master, P1 for slave 1 etc).

b. ‘Total’ field gives the number of zones in alarm on the panel, or (if networked) on the system.

c. ‘Description’ field displays the event data.

Section 5.2 describes the tab and day/date/time fields.

The arrows step through the devices, when more than one device is in alarm in the zone. If the panel is configured to use local zones, each device is identified by its loop number (Lnn) and device number (Snn for sensors, Mnn for modules). If the panel is configured to use network zones, each device is identified by its zone number (nnnn) and reference number (nn) in the format nnnn/nn. For Virtual Input Points, the point number is displayed (e.g. VIP10).

The arrows step through additional data and options about the device in alarm. You must be at least at access level 2 to do this; if you are not a passcode prompt will appear. Refer to Section 4.5 for details of the disablement options.

If the CHANGE TABS pushbutton is used to display other data (another type of event or a menu), the display area is reformatted so that the top two lines continue to display fire information. The Fire tab information is automatically re-displayed after 20 seconds.

**Other FIRE indications:**

Note: The term ‘accepted’ means that the MUTE BUZZER pushbutton has been operated, or a user operation has been carried out.

#### 6.4 Lamp Test and Display Control

This option allows testing of the panel's LEDs and LCD display.

#### 6.4.1 Lamps Test In Sequence

This test illuminates each LED in sequence to verify operation.

Note: If the panel is in alarm, selecting LAMP TEST prompts for the access level 3 passcode. This is because the lamp test duration is longer than the time allowed to suppress the mandatory display of alarms.

#### 6.4.2 All Lamps Lit

Note: This test is normally required only for factory set-up of the panel.

To switch all lamps on until cancelled manually, or after a time default:

1. Press while the prompt is shown.

Note: Prompts are only shown for a few seconds.

All the lamps light and the buzzer silences. The LEDs that light up include:

- FIRE
- FAULT
- DISABLEMENT
- PRE-ALARM
- DAY MODE
- SYSTEM FAULT
- DELAYS ACTIVE
- SOUNDER FAULT/DISABLED
- TECHNICAL ALARM
- TEST
- POWER
- FIRE O/P FAULT/DISABLED
- FIRE O/P OPERATED

2. Press while the prompt is shown. The lamps remain on for 2 minutes, or until is pressed or the panel is reset. The buzzer operation and LCD display tests do not occur.

**ALL LAMPS REMAIN LIT UNTIL:**

If you press but do not press, the LCD display test proceeds as described in Section 6.4.1, the buzzer remains silenced, and the LEDs all light for the duration of the test, then extinguish.

If you press and then, the lamp test exits.

If the system is running on batteries only (i.e. with a Mains/PSU Failure indicated on the LCD), the length of time during which the LCD display is backlit is shortened to extend the battery support time.

### 6.5 Sensor Automatic Test

Note: This is a maintenance facility only. If you initiate a zone walk test (as described in Section 6.2), or if a FIRE is detected elsewhere in the system, while the automatic test is in progress, that test is automatically cancelled if so configured.

This option is only available if the panel is already configured to perform this test daily or weekly (it cannot be configured with both) at a programmed time of day. The test differs from the normal walk test in that no part of the panel is taken off watch for more than a few seconds, and no operator intervention is normally required unless a fault is detected.

There is normally no need to force the panel to undergo this test ahead of the scheduled time, but if you need to do so then select the configured test from the Test menu.

Note: This test does not apply to gas sensors.

The Test tab is displayed while the test is in progress. It provides information about the device currently under test.

### Protec Algo-TecTM 6500 Open Protocol Interactive Digital Addressable Fire Control System

**System Overview**
The Protec Algo-Tec™ 6500 is a high specification, feature rich, economical, interactive digital addressable fire detection and alarm system ideally suited for small, medium and large sized buildings and sites. The control panel is designed and manufactured by Protec and complies to the latest EN54-2 & EN54-4. The control panel is available for surface or recess mounting with an aesthetically pleasing moulded polycarbonate hinged door finished in storm grey. Scalable in every aspect, the 6500 system offers tailor made engineered solutions for all applications, from single panel systems to large multi panel networks. Modular design backed by powerful cause and effect programming enables 6500 systems to be configured exactly to the needs of any commercial or industrial site.

**Secure Network**
The innovative redundant peer to peer network is a high speed data transfer, fail safe, fault tolerant communication channel allowing up to 64 Algo-Tec™ 6500 Fire alarm panels to operate as though they are a single distributed fire system and complies with BS5839-1. No single network fault can disable the system and in the event of multiple faults, each panel will function independently. The network can be wired using copper or fibre optic connections.

**Loops**
Each 6500 control panel is equipped with 1, 2 or 4 high capacity Algo-Tec™ 6000PLUS digital addressable data loops, with up to 200 addresses per loop, totalling 800 addressable devices per panel, 51,200 addressable devices network wide and compliant with EN54 pt2 clause 13.7.

**Interactive Features (Algo-Tec™ 6000PLUS Protocol)**
The Algo-Tec™ 6000PLUS protocol evaluates the data of each fire sensor and is able to learn from the information received. This may simply be to recognise that a sensor is becoming contaminated or in a dirty environment and to automatically adjust the alarm threshold to compensate for the background levels (Threshold Compensation). More complex Algo-Tec™ functions include the ability to discriminate between certain fire and non-fire conditions, filtering out certain environmental stimuli, such as steam from a hotel bathroom, and increasing the sensitivity of a sensor when an increase in temperature is detected. The net effect of the interaction between the sensors and the Algo-Tec™ decision making is enhanced performance, through immunity to false alarms and more responsive fire detection.

**Algo-Tec™ 6000PLUS Interactive Decision Making Algorithms - Typical Applications**
*   **Office Mode (High Performance):** Discriminates against cigarette smoke, but alarms for computer room fire, computer fire, printer paper fire, bin fire.
*   **Clean Mode (Extra High Performance):** Alarms for chemical fire.
*   **Bedroom Mode:** Discriminates against steam from bathroom and aerosols in bedroom, but alarms for smoldering fire.
*   **Day/Night Mode:** Allows for different sensitivities based on time. For example, Day Mode in an office could be high performance, while in a factory loading bay it could be heat detection only. Night Mode in an office could be extra high performance, and in a factory loading bay, smoke & heat detection.

**Controls and Display (LCD)**
All the functions of the Control Panel are accessed via a full colour 7” touch screen graphical display. Under normal quiescent conditions the display shows the current date, time and a programmable logo. In an alarm or fault condition the graphical touch screen will display the following:
*   Device Address
*   Loop number
*   Zone number
*   60 characters of user definable device location text
*   40 characters of device alarm text
*   20 characters of panel text
*   20 characters of device loop text
The touch screen provides a simple select and touch programming aid for engineer configuration and end user operation. The panel is also equipped with 40 or 100 separate zonal fire LED’s (expandable to 10,000) and 18 system LED’s for mandatory requirements and information purposes. An optional integral low noise thermal printer is also available.

**Device Location Text**
Windows based text software is available to download from the Protec website to enable the location text to be prepared in advance and then handed to the commissioning engineer for loading into the panel during commissioning. This simple process allows more flexibility, enabling last minute changes and speeding up the entire process.

**Printer**
The optional integral printer is a 40-character low noise thermal printer. In operation the printer will provide on demand real time data of fire and fault conditions including time and date of events along with the device number and location text. By accessing the appropriate function from the user menu facility a variety of reports can be printed including the previous 5000 fire events and 5000 non fire events from the event log, the system device configuration and programming matrix, devices nearing their contamination limit and the current status of all devices.

**Power Supply**
The range of 6500 and 6600 control panels can be supplied with an integral 3A dc switch mode charger and 2 x 12V 12Ah sealed lead acid batteries. The system is also suitable for use with Protec 9300EN and 9800EN range remote power supplies with an extensive range of battery and charger sizes.

**On Site Programming**
The Protec Algo-Tec™ 6500 system is on site programmable. All of the commissioning configuration data can be entered and/or backed up using the Protec 6500/WINPROG windows based programming software via a PC. This feature enables the system to be re-configured and checked prior to attending site simplifying commissioning works on site, enabling text amendments to be carried out whilst on site and providing an invaluable remote backup should the need arise.

### Protec 6000/DCM - Smoke Damper Control Module

**Features**
*   Protec Algo-Tec™ 6000 Protocol
*   Integral Short Circuit Isolator Approved to EN54 Part 17
*   Supports 230 Vac, 110 Vac and 24 Vdc Actuators
*   Supports 2 Position (Open/Closed) and 3 Position (Modulated) Actuators
*   Control, Monitoring and Indication of Damper position and Status
*   External Connections to Monitor and Override Damper
*   Can be Configured for Legacy Operation (6000/DIU)

**Description**
The Protec 6000 Damper Control Module has been designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom and complies fully with current standards dictating fire alarm system design practice (EN54 Part 17 and 18). The Damper Control Module is an innovative fire alarm interface, compatible with the Protec MX1 loop communication system, which allows control of a building’s heating, ventilation and air conditioning system smoke dampers directly from the buildings fire alarm system. Configuration of the device is carried out using Near Field Communication programming and allows the device maximum flexibility to interface to a wide range of damper actuator types. Both 2-position (power open/fail-safe closed, or power closed/fail-safe open) and 3-position modulating (power open, modulating, fail safe closed) actuators are supported by the control module with position monitoring and indication of the connected damper. All monitoring information is transmitted and displayed at the fire alarm system display control panels and where fitted, the FA graphics and Fireman’s Override Control Panels. Monitored inputs from each 6000/DCM are programmable and can be used by the fire alarm cause & effect matrix to operate other output requirements. Modulated damper support allows vane adjustment and monitoring locally at the Damper Control Module and remotely from the fire alarm control equipment. The vane position is adjusted and set during air-balance commissioning, this set-position is stored by the damper control module and becomes the dampers normal operating position unless actively overriden to open or close (fail safe). Additional input and outputs are included at the device to allow for external building management interfaces to be connected. These can override and monitor the damper position, with loop control having priority.

### Protec 6000/LCM - Local Control Module

**Features**
*   Loop Powered Single Zone Fire Alarm
*   Reduced Incidence of False Alarms in Houses in Multiple Occupation
*   Local ‘Mute’ facility to Silence Unwanted Alarms
*   Local ‘Disable’ Facility to Isolate Local Detectors and Sounders
*   Simple One Button Operation
*   Fully Monitored
*   Low Current
*   Integral Short Circuit Isolator
*   Protec Algo-TecTM 6000 Protocol
*   Approved to EN54 Part 17 & 18

**Description**
The Protec Algo-TecTM 6000 Local Control Module has been designed to allow easy integration of Protec Addressable Fire Detection systems into Houses in Multiple Occupancy and offers novel features to reduce false and nuisance alarms. The unit effectively operates as a stand alone fire alarm control panel monitoring detectors and driving sounders in a zone. An automatic detector activation on the zone instigates a search timer to allow the cause of the alarm to be investigated, and dealt with locally, prior to signalling a full alarm to the building fire alarm system. The unit is loop powered and reports its status back to the master panel at regular intervals.

**Operation**
The device monitors the detection zone for activations, if one occurs the following decisions are taken:
*   If the activation is due to an MCP the device will immediately signal a fire condition to the host panel. This will then activate the unit and the local sounders will sound. The Local alarm LED on the unit will be illuminated.
*   If the activation is due to an automatic device being triggered, a ‘search’ time of one minute will be started before the system is put into alarm. If the mute button is pressed before the search time expires the fire signal to the host panel is delayed by up to 2 minutes. If the zone returns to normal within this time no further action is taken. If the mute button is pressed prior to an activation an ‘isolated’ period of 15 minutes is instigated. If the mute button is pressed again during the ‘isolated’ period the device returns to normal. An internal buzzer sounds 15 seconds prior to either the muted or the isolated period expiring. If the mute button is pressed during the 15 second expiry period the original time-out of 2 or 15 minutes is re-set. If the master panel has a fire activation the device can be programmed to activate the sounder outputs, this overrides any muted, or isolated state.

### Protec 6000/MICCO - Monitored Input Clean Contact Output Interface

**Features**
*   Protec Algo-TecTM 6000 Protocol
*   Loop Powered
*   Monitored Input Interface
*   Clean Contact Output Interface
*   Integral Short Circuit Isolator
*   Optional Delayed Input Mode
*   Optional Non Latching Alarm Mode

**Description**
The Protec 6000 series MICCO is a loop powered fault monitored input and a volt free clean contact output interface. An on board isolator is provided which protects against loop short circuits on either the incoming or outgoing loop connections. Additionally the removal of a PCB link will put the device into non-latching alarm mode. Under normal circumstances the input is terminated with an End of Line resistor. If the correct value of resistance is placed across the monitored input, the MICCO will activate the associated 6000 control panel within 3 seconds. A PCB link may be removed which will delay a sustained activation by 14 seconds, designed for use when interfacing to sprinkler systems. The input is fully monitored for open and short circuit wiring faults. A set of volt free changeover contacts are provided which operate under panel control. However by the removal of the relevant PCB link the unit can be put into ‘door closer’ mode where any control panel fault or disablement, or removal of loop power to the device will activate the volt free contacts (and release any magnetic fire door retaining device).

• Protec Algo-Tec™ 6000 Protocol
• Integral Short Circuit Isolator Approved
to EN54 Part 17
• Supports 230 Vac, 110 Vac and 24 Vdc
Actuators
• Supports 2 Position ( Open/Closed ) and
3 Position ( Modulated ) Actuators
• Control, Monitoring and Indication of
Damper position and Status
• External Connections to Monitor and
Override Damper
• Can be Configured for Legacy Operation
(6000/DIU)

The Protec 6000 Damper Control Module
has been designed and manufactured in
the United Kingdom and complies fully
with current standards dictating fire alarm
system design practice (EN54 Part 17 and
18).
The Damper Control Module is an
innovative fire alarm interface, compatible
with the Protec MX1 loop communication
system, which allows control of a building’s
heating, ventilation and air conditioning
system smoke dampers directly from the
buildings fire alarm system.
Configuration of the device is carried
out using Near Field Communication
programming and allows the device
maximum flexibility to interface to a wide
range of damper actuator types.
Both 2-position (power open/fail-safe
closed, or power closed/fail-safe open)
and 3-position modulating (power open,
modulating, fail safe closed) actuators
are supported by the control module
with position monitoring and indication
of the connected damper. All monitoring
information is transmitted and displayed

at the fire alarm system display control
panels and where fitted, the FA graphics
and Fireman’s Override Control Panels.
Monitored inputs from each 6000/DCM are
programmable and can be used by the fire
alarm cause & effect matrix to operate
other output requirements.
Modulated damper support allows vane
adjustment and monitoring locally at the
Damper Control Module and remotely from
the fire alarm control equipment. The vane
position is adjusted and set during airbalance commissioning, this set-position is
stored by the damper control module and
becomes the dampers normal operating
position unless actively overriden to open
or close (fail safe).
Additional input and outputs are included
at the device to allow for external building
management interfaces to be connected.
These can override and monitor the
damper position, with loop control having
priority.

enables 6500 systems to be configured exactly to the
needs of any commercial or industrial site.
Secure Network - The innovative redundant peer to peer
network is a high speed data transfer, fail safe, fault
tolerant communication channel allowing up to 64 AlgoTec™ 6500 Fire alarm panels to operate as though they
are a single distributed fire system and complies with
BS5839-1.
No single network fault can disable the system and in
the event of multiple faults, each panel will function
independently. The network can be wired using copper or
fibre optic connections.
Loops - Each 6500 control panel is equipped with 1, 2 or
4 high capacity Algo-Tec™ 6000PLUS digital addressable
data loops, with up to 200 addresses per loop, totalling
800 addressable devices per panel, 51,200 addressable
devices network wide and compliant with EN54 pt2 clause
13.7.
Interactive - The Algo-Tec™ 6000PLUS protocol
evaluates the data of each fire sensor and is able to
learn from the information received. This may simply be
to recognise that a sensor is becoming contaminated
or in a dirty environment and to automatically adjust the
alarm threshold to compensate for the background levels
(Threshold Compensation).
More complex Algo-Tec™ functions include the ability to
discriminate between certain fire and non-fire conditions,
filtering out certain environmental stimuli, such as steam
from a hotel bathroom, and increasing the sensitivity of a
sensor when an increase in temperature is detected.
The net effect of the interaction between the sensors and
the Algo-Tec™ decision making is enhanced performance,
through immunity to false alarms and more responsive fire
detection.

6000 Loop Repeater

The 6000/LOOP/REPEATER can be connected directly to the local AlgoTec™ digital addressable data loop and takes up just one address.
Events from the main panel are displayed on the repeater’s large LCD
display, providing system indication of any loop connected location on
site. The low power consumption allows numerous repeat devices to be
fitted, greatly increasing system visibility.
The power consumption of the repeater has been minimised through
energy efficient design, preserving loop current and capacity. Quiescent
1.6mA, Alarm 12.7mA
The repeater can be surface or flush mounted as standard, allowing
gland or conduit entrance through the rear, top or bottom of the
enclosure. The device only requires a loop connection to provide
both power and data, no network cabling, or external power supply is
required.
6500 Repeat Panel

The Protec Network Mimic Panel provides a flexible platform for
system indication and control solutions. A Mimic Panel can be
configured for zonal indication, plant shutdown, fan control, damper
control or other custom solutions.
The Mimic Panel is connected to the 6500 secure local network as part
of a single distributed fire system, representing a single node. Multiple
Mimic Panels can be placed on the local network.
Custom panel graphics are produced using industry standard graphical
design software. Coloured architectural drawings, plans and custom
logos can be directly imported.
A single Mimic Panel can support up to 1,000 RGB LEDs, 500 key/
push/rotary switches and 5 clean contact outputs. The intensity of the
LED outputs can be controlled by an ambient light sensor and each
indicator is fault monitored.
An in-built setup feature of the Standard 6500 Windows based
Commissioning Software is used to configure the Mimic Panel
(allocating the system input/outputs to an LED indicator). The Software
significantly reduces configuration time, increases information integrity
and simplifies ongoing changes. The Commissioning Software provides
a fully interactive graphical representation of Mimic Panel setup.
Hercules Colour Graphics System

The Protec 6500 repeat panel can be connected to the secure local
network. The repeat panel has an identical display to the control panel
including a full colour 7” touch screen graphical display, zonal fire LED’s
and system LED’s for information purposes and mandatory functions.
The repeat panel is available as surface or recessed mounted with a
moulded polycarbonate hinged door finished in storm grey.

The Protec Colour Graphics System is a Windows based PC package
providing a graphical representation of the site enabling the precise
location of an incident to be readily identified enabling a prompt
response. Using touch screen or mouse, the operator can track an
incident and zoom from a site plan to intermediate plan listing floor
levels, then zoom to a specific floor plan and if necessary then zoom
to a specific detailed area within the floor plan showing the device in
question. Colour prints of the maps can be printed automatically or on
demand.

# Ziton ZP3 Fire Alarm Panel - Full Technical Reference

## 1. Introduction

This document provides a comprehensive technical reference for the Ziton ZP3 Fire Alarm Panel, including detailed information on its operation, installation, programming, commissioning, and maintenance. All information is presented in a raw, unsummarized format, covering every technical detail available.

## 2. Panel Overview and Specifications

### 2.1. General Information

The ZP3 Fire Alarm Control Panel is a modular system with powerful programming capabilities. It supports various hardware modules and programmable functional requirements, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Configuration can be done via PC using the Planner program or directly through the fascia keyboard. PC programming is recommended for record-keeping.

### 2.2. Programmable Features

The panel supports programming for:
*   Access control facilities
*   Panel identification
*   Stand-alone system or ZP-NET multiple panel system
*   Fire and non-fire functions
*   Sensor allocation to zones
*   Individual sensor and device location messages
*   Zone identification or location messages

*   Sensor self-test
*   Loop isolators
*   Delay on silencing sounders
*   Printer and printer options
*   Time stamping of event on-screen

## 3. Power Supply and Wiring

### 3.1. Mains Power Supply

Mains power should be sourced directly from a separate circuit breaker in the building electrical supply distribution board. This circuit must be clearly marked, have a bipolar disconnect device, and only be used for fire detection equipment. Wiring should be as short as possible within the panel and kept away from Z-loop wiring, data cables, and other low voltage wiring.

### 3.2. Auxiliary 24 VDC Supply

The unsupervised 24 VDC output (“Supply Output” terminal, TB2 on the main board) is for use by auxiliary equipment such as programmable relay boards, sounder driver boards, etc. It can also power remote display units and similar peripheral devices. The current drawn depends on the system engineering and allocated load for devices like loop sounders, common sounders, and control relays.

### 3.3. External Power for Accessory Boards

If the load for optional accessory boards exceeds the panel's power supply capacity, they can be powered from a separate external 24 VDC power supply. This external supply must meet the following criteria:
*   Output voltage: 22 to 28 VDC
*   Output ripple: Max 200 mV (peak-to-peak)
*   Output ripple with full load: Max 500 mV peak
*   Compliance: EN 54-4
*   Output capacity: Adequate for the required load, even with batteries disconnected
*   Standby batteries: Must incorporate, sized for the required operating period
*   Fusing: Output must be suitably fused
*   Fault reporting: Two voltage-free changeover contacts for mains failure and battery fault must be provided.

**Caution:** Do not connect the 0-volts (negative supply) of the external power supply and the 0-volts (negative supply) of the fire panel. The two power supply systems must remain floating with respect to each other.

### 3.4. Monitoring External Power

Failures of the external PSU (mains, batteries, charging system, fuse) can be reported to the fire panel. The PSU must have two sets of voltage-free contacts: one for mains failure and one for battery fault. These contacts connect to the main board terminals. When a contact changes state, the fault is reported to the panel, triggering visual/audible alarms and signaling to a remote manned center. If unused, these outputs should be terminated with a 2.2 kΩ resistor.

### 3.5. Battery Connection

Batteries must be housed in their proper place and connected using only the provided leads, which incorporate a temperature-sensing element for compensated charging. The connector lead connects to the main board with a plug and socket. Battery positive is RED, negative is BLACK, and control leads are GREY. Batteries must be connected in series with a jumper. Incorrect polarity requires replacing fuse F1 (6.3 A, slow-blow, 250 V, 20 mm × 5 mm).

### 3.6. Power Supply and Battery Calculations

Two calculations are required for system design:
1.  **Mains power capacity:** Ensure it can supply the system load even with batteries disconnected or discharged.
2.  **Battery capacity:** Calculate for operation on batteries.

### 3.7. Z-Loop Wiring

The addressable Z-Loop can be wired as a Class A return loop or Class B single-direction with spurs. Loop length can be up to 3,000 meters, depending on device type, quantity, and location. When wired in Class B, loop terminals must be connected (+) in to (+) out and (−) in to (−) out. The loop is monitored for open and short circuits. Unused loops must be terminated (+) in to (+) out and (−) in to (−) out.

**Loop Isolators:** For information on loop isolators, refer to Chapter 8 “ZP wiring guide.”

### 3.8. Z-Loop Parameters

The Z-loop connects ZP addressable devices to the fire control panel. It is a two-wire loop supplying power and communication. Loops must be wired with correctly sized, continuously screened cable.

**Cable Sizing:** Depends on loop length, number, and type of devices. Input devices use little current, allowing maximum loop length. Loop-powered output devices (e.g., sounders) require heavier cable and reduce allowable loop length. Refer to Chapter 8 “ZP wiring guide” for details.

**Screening:** Cables must be shielded, and shields must be continuous. For Class A return loop wiring, both ends of the shield must be connected to earth terminals at the panel. For Class B single-direction wiring, the screen must be connected to its earth terminal at the panel end and left disconnected at the far end.

**Table: Screen Connection Wiring Best Practice**

The ZP line loop screen connection must be kept as short as possible for noise immunity. Option B (preferred) has a shorter screen connection even with longer plus and minus terminal wires. For thick, mineral-insulated cabling, EMC glands are recommended for screen connection, connecting the metal sheath directly to the panel box via the EMC conductive gland.

### 3.9. Common Outputs

#### 3.9.1. Common Sounder Outputs

The control panel has four built-in sounder outputs, arranged in two pairs, providing 24 VDC. They can be programmed to activate on a fire alarm from any zone or device. Wired in two-wire Class B single-direction, daisy-chained without T-taps or spurs. They operate on a reverse polarity basis and are monitored for open/short circuit faults. Circuits must be terminated with a 2.2 kΩ, 1 W end-of-line resistor. Sounders must be polarized (fitted with diodes). Sounder lines are fused at 1 A each (F8, F7, F3, F2 for sounders 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively).

#### 3.9.2. Common Fire / Fault Outputs

Provide voltage-free contacts, configurable as normally open (NO, closing on alarm) or normally closed (NC, opening on alarm) via software in the Setup menu. The common fire relay changes state on any fire alarm, and the common fault relay changes state on any fault alarm. Relays restore upon panel reset. Contacts are rated for max 1 A, 24 VDC, or 100 VAC.

#### 3.9.3. Remote Manned Centre Outputs

Send fire alarm and fault alarm signals to RMC-routing equipment. Designed to drive relays with a coil resistance of 1.8 to 3.0 kΩ. The fire alarm circuit is monitored for open/short circuits; a fire alarm increases current to activate routing equipment. The fault alarm output is normally ON and de-energizes on a fault signal. If unused, terminate with a 2.2 kΩ resistor.

### 3.10. Auxiliary Boards

#### 3.10.1. ZP3AB-RL8 Relay Board

A programmable relay board with eight separate relays, each with a single changeover contact. Relays are addressed and programmed via I/O-mapping. Connects to the panel control bus. User Bus section (up to 768 addresses) offers freely programmable outputs. System Bus section (256 addresses) has preprogrammed functions. Each board has an eight-segment DIP switch (000-127) for addressing. If externally supplied, do not common the power supplies. If switching inductive loads, protect with a flyback diode.

#### 3.10.2. ZP3AB-MA8 Monitored Output Board

Programmable output board with eight separate outputs for fire alarm sounder or control outputs. Monitors circuit field wiring for open/short circuit faults. Operates on a reverse polarity basis.

Each board has a DIP switch (32-127) for addressing.

### 3.11. Earth Connection

Panels, power supplies, and cables should be earthed at one point only, always at the panel, unless MICC cable is used. The panel is typically connected to the nearest external earth point, which should be a clean earth, preferably not shared with other electrical devices. Wiring codes require bonding to the main building earth. The resistance to true earth should be as low as possible. The wire from the panel to the external earth point should be at least 4 mm² cable and securely connected. If any loop device uses separate external power, the ZP loop shield must be connected to panel earth, and AC supply earth and panel earth must be connected if not the same. For frequent surge environments, the loop device chassis must be connected to the main building earth.

### 3.12. System Cabling

Four types of circuits are used:

This document provides a comprehensive technical reference for the Ziton ZP3 Fire Alarm Panel, including detailed information on its operation, installation, programming, commissioning, and maintenance. All information is presented in a raw, unsummarized format, covering every technical detail available.

## 2. Panel Overview and Specifications

### 2.1. General Information

The ZP3 Fire Alarm Control Panel is a modular system with powerful programming capabilities. It supports various hardware modules and programmable functional requirements, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Configuration can be done via PC using the Planner program or directly through the fascia keyboard. PC programming is recommended for record-keeping.

*   Loop sounders
*   Panel sounders
*   Sensor self-test
*   Loop isolators
*   Delay on silencing sounders
*   Printer and printer options
*   Time stamping of event on-screen

## 3. Power Supply and Wiring

### 3.1. Mains Power Supply

Mains power should be sourced directly from a separate circuit breaker in the building electrical supply distribution board. This circuit must be clearly marked, have a bipolar disconnect device, and only be used for fire detection equipment. Wiring should be as short as possible within the panel and kept away from Z-loop wiring, data cables, and other low voltage wiring.

### 3.2. Auxiliary 24 VDC Supply

The unsupervised 24 VDC output (“Supply Output” terminal, TB2 on the main board) is for use by auxiliary equipment such as programmable relay boards, sounder driver boards, etc. It can also power remote display units and similar peripheral devices. The current drawn depends on the system engineering and allocated load for devices like loop sounders, common sounders, and control relays.

### 3.3. External Power for Accessory Boards

If the load for optional accessory boards exceeds the panel's power supply capacity, they can be powered from a separate external 24 VDC power supply. This external supply must meet the following criteria:
*   Output voltage: 22 to 28 VDC
*   Output ripple: Max 200 mV (peak-to-peak)
*   Output ripple with full load: Max 500 mV peak
*   Compliance: EN 54-4
*   Output capacity: Adequate for the required load, even with batteries disconnected
*   Standby batteries: Must incorporate, sized for the required operating period
*   Fusing: Output must be suitably fused
*   Fault reporting: Two voltage-free changeover contacts for mains failure and battery fault must be provided.

**Caution:** Do not connect the 0-volts (negative supply) of the external power supply and the 0-volts (negative supply) of the fire panel. The two power supply systems must remain floating with respect to each other.

### 3.4. Monitoring External Power

Failures of the external PSU (mains, batteries, charging system, fuse) can be reported to the fire panel. The PSU must have two sets of voltage-free contacts: one for mains failure and one for battery fault. These contacts connect to the main board terminals. When a contact changes state, the fault is reported to the panel, triggering visual/audible alarms and signaling to a remote manned center. If unused, these outputs should be terminated with a 2.2 kΩ resistor.

### 3.5. Battery Connection

Batteries must be housed in their proper place and connected using only the provided leads, which incorporate a temperature-sensing element for compensated charging. The connector lead connects to the main board with a plug and socket. Battery positive is RED, negative is BLACK, and control leads are GREY. Batteries must be connected in series with a jumper. Incorrect polarity requires replacing fuse F1 (6.3 A, slow-blow, 250 V, 20 mm × 5 mm).

### 3.6. Power Supply and Battery Calculations

Two calculations are required for system design:
1.  **Mains power capacity:** Ensure it can supply the system load even with batteries disconnected or discharged.
2.  **Battery capacity:** Calculate for operation on batteries.

### 3.7. Z-Loop Wiring

The addressable Z-Loop can be wired as a Class A return loop or Class B single-direction with spurs. Loop length can be up to 3,000 meters, depending on device type, quantity, and location. When wired in Class B, loop terminals must be connected (+) in to (+) out and (−) in to (−) out. The loop is monitored for open and short circuits. Unused loops must be terminated (+) in to (+) out and (−) in to (−) out.

**Loop Isolators:** For information on loop isolators, refer to Chapter 8 “ZP wiring guide.”

### 3.8. Z-Loop Parameters

The Z-loop connects ZP addressable devices to the fire control panel. It is a two-wire loop supplying power and communication. Loops must be wired with correctly sized, continuously screened cable.

**Cable Sizing:** Depends on loop length, number, and type of devices. Input devices use little current, allowing maximum loop length. Loop-powered output devices (e.g., sounders) require heavier cable and reduce allowable loop length. Refer to Chapter 8 “ZP wiring guide” for details.

**Screening:** Cables must be shielded, and shields must be continuous. For Class A return loop wiring, both ends of the shield must be connected to earth terminals at the panel. For Class B single-direction wiring, the screen must be connected to its earth terminal at the panel end and left disconnected at the far end.

**Table: Screen Connection Wiring Best Practice**

The ZP line loop screen connection must be kept as short as possible for noise immunity. Option B (preferred) has a shorter screen connection even with longer plus and minus terminal wires. For thick, mineral-insulated cabling, EMC glands are recommended for screen connection, connecting the metal sheath directly to the panel box via the EMC conductive gland.

### 3.9. Common Outputs

#### 3.9.1. Common Sounder Outputs

The control panel has four built-in sounder outputs, arranged in two pairs, providing 24 VDC. They can be programmed to activate on a fire alarm from any zone or device. Wired in two-wire Class B single-direction, daisy-chained without T-taps or spurs. They operate on a reverse polarity basis and are monitored for open/short circuit faults. Circuits must be terminated with a 2.2 kΩ, 1 W end-of-line resistor. Sounders must be polarized (fitted with diodes). Sounder lines are fused at 1 A each (F8, F7, F3, F2 for sounders 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively).

#### 3.9.2. Common Fire / Fault Outputs

Provide voltage-free contacts, configurable as normally open (NO, closing on alarm) or normally closed (NC, opening on alarm) via software in the Setup menu. The common fire relay changes state on any fire alarm, and the common fault relay changes state on any fault alarm. Relays restore upon panel reset. Contacts are rated for max 1 A, 24 VDC, or 100 VAC.

#### 3.9.3. Remote Manned Centre Outputs

Send fire alarm and fault alarm signals to RMC-routing equipment. Designed to drive relays with a coil resistance of 1.8 to 3.0 kΩ. The fire alarm circuit is monitored for open/short circuits; a fire alarm increases current to activate routing equipment. The fault alarm output is normally ON and de-energizes on a fault signal. If unused, terminate with a 2.2 kΩ resistor.

### 3.10. Auxiliary Boards

Input circuit field wiring is monitored for open circuit faults. Each input is uniquely addressed and programmed via I/O-mapping. User Bus section (up to 768 addresses) offers freely programmable outputs. Does not operate on the preprogrammed System Bus section. Inputs are wired in two-wire Class B single-direction. If connected to multiple contacts, daisy-chained without spurs. Terminated with a 2.2 kΩ, 0.5 W end-of-line resistor. Can be connected to panel auxiliary power or external 24 VDC supply. Each board has a DIP switch (32-127) for addressing.

### 3.11. Earth Connection

Panels, power supplies, and cables should be earthed at one point only, always at the panel, unless MICC cable is used. The panel is typically connected to the nearest external earth point, which should be a clean earth, preferably not shared with other electrical devices. Wiring codes require bonding to the main building earth. The resistance to true earth should be as low as possible. The wire from the panel to the external earth point should be at least 4 mm² cable and securely connected. If any loop device uses separate external power, the ZP loop shield must be connected to panel earth, and AC supply earth and panel earth must be connected if not the same. For frequent surge environments, the loop device chassis must be connected to the main building earth.

### 3.12. System Cabling

System overview
The ZP3 is a complete intelligent fire detection system designed to protect life
and property. Each system is an individual design, based upon modular ZP
components. The ZP3 detects the presence of smoke or fire, raises alarms, and
accurately indicates the location of the fire. Depending on the features built into
the system, it can also:
•
•
•

Raise local and remote alarms
Call the fire brigade
Activate building systems (including automatic fire extinguishing systems)

The system can prevent the spread of smoke, gases, and fire, and display the
alarm situation graphically on a computer.
The ZP3 Fire Control Panel is the main component of a ZP3 system. Figure 1
below shows a typical ZP3 fire detection system schematic. Various devices can
connect to the ZP3 Fire Control Panel, these include:
•
•

Basic system features
The ZP3 system incorporates a wide range of features and capabilities, including
these:
•

The ZP3 incorporates the proven ZP system of automatic contamination
adjustment for each sensor. This recalibrates each sensor as it becomes
contaminated, and provides a constant sensitivity even when sensors are
dirty.

•

Each sensor is individually adjustable for sensitivity, including different
sensitivities for day and night operation.

•

Selectable alarm verification allows the time integration of each sensor to be
set. Analogue sensors provide prealarm, alarm, service, and diagnostic
alarms.

•

The panel continuously checks every sensor for contamination, with
automatic alarm.

•

The system supports both fire and non-fire monitoring functions, e.g. door
open, fault alarms, etc.

•

The ZP-loop provides for addressable loop-powered sounders, reducing
wiring.

•

Each panel supports up to 50 zones, optionally 128. Built-in zone LEDs
display up to 50 zones, and extender panels provide LED display for up to
128 zones.

•

Each panel has the capacity for 896 programmable inputs and outputs, which
can be located with the panel, or remotely via serial connection.

•

Flash memory retains all programming and data, even if the panel is powered
down.

Operation
The panel incorporates a simple and effective operator interface that includes a
160-character LCD display. Together with zone LEDs and function LEDs, these
indications give a clear and unambiguous indication of all alarms and reports. All
control functions are menu driven, and three access levels are protected by
passwords. A Help button provides quick access to operating instructions.

Sensors and devices
A full range of single and combination analogue addressable sensors, including
wired and radio sensors, is supported. Manual call points meet UK preferences,
and respond in less than 3 seconds. A range of input and output interface units
allows the connection of third-party equipment to the addressable ZP-loop.
The following features are contained in panel software SW71910 version 3.07 or
later:
•
•

Fast sounder responses
Type 54 emulation

Fast sounder responses
The panel now has a response time of less than 3 seconds for call point
operation. This is in compliance with the BS5839-1:2002 specification.
For a guaranteed sounder response time of less than 3 seconds from a mapped
call point input, the user must adhere to the following when using panel software
SW71910, version 3.07 and later:
•

The panel must be fitted with line driver software SW72001, version 3.01 or
later. The call point must be a version three type (ZP785-3).

•

The sounder and the call point must be on the same panel. This means that
the detection zone and alarm zone must be serviced by the same panel.

•

For the output mapping the sounder output device must be defined as a
sounder type with the call point being the input trigger.

•

For a ZP755 line sounder used as a behind detector sounder the output
address must be tagged as an SAB (sounder alarm base).

Total Loss of Power alarm
The ZP3 panel is fitted with a Total Loss of Power alarm feature. This feature is a
prewired, independent circuit that turns on the Common Fault and System Fault
LEDs and sounds a buzzer in the event of total loss of power. This condition
occurs when the mains power has been lost and the battery has been depleted
to the extent that load shedding has occurred, prior to the entire panel being shut
down. In this state, the display is shut down, the fault LEDs are on, and the panel
buzzer is sounding.

Accessories and peripherals
In addition to the ZP-loop devices, a range of accessories and peripheral devices
is available to provide all the elements of a complete system. The ZP3 panel,
when fitted with the software shown in the specification supports the following

Day/night capability
Day/night control provides separate programmes for day and night modes.
Different sensor sensitivity, alarm selection, alarm evaluation delays, and fire
brigade responses can be configured.

Configuration
A programming or configuration utility allows any “cause-and-effect” requirement
to be configured. Each panel can have up to 896 physical outputs that are
software linked to as many as 2,000 inputs in any arrangement. All functions are
100% field programmable. Programming can be done directly using the ZP3
panel, or via a software configuration package, i.e. Planner. Flash memory
retains all programming and data, even if the panel is powered down.

Communication and integration
Multiple communication capability allows the panel to connect to printers, colour
graphic computers, building management systems, remote mimics and text
displays, radio pagers, and other systems. Simple integration into third-party
systems is possible.

Peer-to-peer networking
The ZP3 peer-to-peer network enables up to 255 stand-alone systems (verified
up to 100 panels per system) to be integrated to provide system-wide alarm
reporting, coordinated evacuation, cause-and-effect functionality, and control, for
large systems and multiple-building sites. The maximum number of panels
supported by each software version is listed in Table 5 below.

Principle of operation
Sensing devices, e.g. heat and smoke detectors, manual call points, etc. are
grouped into zones, and programmed with text labels to indicate their location.
The control panel continually checks each fire or smoke sensor, call point, or
other device attached to the ZP-loop, every 2 seconds. The precision data
collected is analyzed to indicate the amount of smoke, heat, and combustion
products in the proximity of devices. The active scanning process by the ZP3
panel constantly updates this information. This provides an accurate picture of
the area being monitored by the sensors, enabling the software to make
intelligent decisions about the presence of fire, as indicated by heat, smoke, or
invisible products of combustion.
After making a decision that a fire exists, the ZP3 system initiates an alarm at the
control panel, displays the exact location by means of illuminated LEDs and LCD
text displays, and illuminates the LEDs on the initiating sensors or call points.
Depending upon how the particular system has been configured, it can also issue
preprogrammed commands to operate area sounders, call the fire brigade,
activate building controls such as air-conditioning shutdown, or to take other
actions. In addition it commands remote display panels to display the location
and status of alarms, and to carry out programmed control functions. A very large
system consists of several panels communicating with each other. These panels
can be programmed to display alarms from other panels or areas, and to
automatically carry out commands issued by other panels.
The complete system is actively monitored on a continuous basis. Selfmaintenance and diagnostics are built-in, and the sensors, devices, and field
wiring are continuously checked for correct operation. Any faults found are
automatically reported.
Although each system is unique, the basic principles of operation apply to each.
This manual describes the basic ZP3 operating principles. To fully understand
your particular system, obtain a copy of the system specification and become
familiar with how the system is designed to react in the event of a fire alarm.

ZP3 Fire control panel
In addition to operating all the sensors, sounders, and other devices in the
system, the control panel provides the interface for the operator by means of its
front panel fascia. Figure 2 below shows a typical ZP3 Fire Control Panel.

--- PAGE BREAK ---
Panel fascia
The ZP3 system is operated by means of the controls and indicators on the ZP3
panel Fascia as shown in Figure 3 below. In some systems, the operator controls
the system from a Remote Display Unit and not from the panel fascia. This is
identical to the control panel, but is usually located in some other area, such as a
control room. Effectively the Remote Display Unit is a repeater, which operates in
the same manner as the fire panel.

--- PAGE BREAK ---
Fire indicator
The Fire indicator illuminates when any fire alarm is received by, or is currently
present, in the system. The indicator flashes for a new alarm, and becomes
steady after an alarm has been accepted. New alarms must be responded to
immediately. Other indicators identify the location of the alarm, and are described
later in this document. This indicator is normally off.
Fault indicator
The Fault indicator illuminates when any fault alarm is received by, or is currently
present, in the system. Other indicators identify the location and type of fault.
Fault alarms have different levels of severity; some may take the complete
system out of operation, some may take only a small part of the system out of
operation, while others may simply report a condition that needs attention. Refer
to “
Types of fault” on page 24 for more details. This indicator is normally off.
Disabled indicator
The Disabled indicator illuminates when any part of the system (for example, a
zone, a fire sensor, a sounder, or a connection to the fire brigade) is deliberately
disabled. This might be done for a number of reasons, for example, to allow part
of a building to be renovated, for maintenance, or to allow people to smoke in a
meeting room. Other indicators identify the location of the disabled devices;
these will be described later in this manual. This indicator is normally off.
Other indicator
The Other indicator illuminates to identify the presence of any alarm that does
not fall into one of the above groups. For example, this could be an alarm that a
fire door is unlocked, or that air conditioning is shut down, or a prealarm, etc.
Other indicators identify the nature of the alarm, and are described later in this
manual. This indicator is normally off.
Zonal fire indicators
See Figure 5 on page 13. In addition to the common alarm indicators, by default
alarms are indicated by means of zonal fire indicators, and by means of text
messages on the LCD display, which also shows other information. Alternatively
the LED can be programmed as required. For more information, see “I/O
Mapping” in the Installation, Commissioning and Maintenance Manual (P/N 5031160ZE-I).
Zonal fire indicators are red, and are located on the left side of the fascia. When
an alarm is received from a sensor, the Zone indicator illuminates to identify
which zone has initiated the alarm. This immediately identifies the location of the
fire. The Zone indicator flashes for a new alarm, and becomes steady after an

Disabling system elements
Zones, sensors, call points, sounders, control outputs, outputs, and remote
manned centre alarms can be manually disabled for maintenance or other
purposes. When disabled, the condition reports on the ZP3 panel as described in
Table 11 below. Disablement is normally carried out by maintenance personnel,
and can only be done by personnel with a level 2 access (or higher). In certain
cases, where a specific part of a system is regularly disabled at certain times (for
example, a meeting room which allows smoking), the system is sometimes set
up to allow the operator to carry out the disablement, usually with a key switch.

Operator maintenance
Overview
The owner of a fire detection system is responsible for ensuring that it is correctly
maintained so that it is in proper working condition at all times. This involves
arranging for the system to be checked, tested, and serviced as described in this
manual.
The maintenance procedures described are Ziton recommendations. There may
be additional requirements or regulations imposed by local authorities. Where
this conflicts with the Ziton recommendations then the local authority regulation
should be followed.
A fire alarm system must provide early and reliable warning of the outbreak of
fire. To achieve this, the system remains on watch at all times, ready to activate
the alarms in response to a signal from any of the sensors. Regular testing and
maintenance must therefore be carried out to ensure the system is always
operating correctly.
Note: The following guidelines were developed from the recommendations
provided in BS5839-1: 2002. They are intended to assist the user in
understanding their responsibilities regarding the continued safe and proper
operation of their fire alarm system. They do not attempt to provide detailed sitespecific test and maintenance routines. We recommend that the user reads and
understands the full text provided in the relevant sections of BS5839-1: 2002.

User responsibilities
A single person should be appointed to supervise all matters relating to the fire
alarm system, that is:
•

Making sure the system is checked at least once every 24 hrs and that there
are no faults on the system.

•

Making sure the system is correctly tested and maintained in line with the
recommendations of BS5839.

•

Making sure that appropriate records are maintained by keeping the logbook
up-to-date and available for inspection by the maintenance authority.

•

Making sure the relevant occupants are aware of their roles and
responsibilities in connection with the fire alarm system, ensuring that:
-

Occupants are instructed in the proper use of the system including how to
interpret the alarm indications.

-

Occupants are familiar with the appropriate user controls including the
correct use of the disablement features and understand how to avoid the
generation of false alarms.

•

Making sure that situations are avoided that are detrimental to the standard of
protection provided by the system, for example:

32

ZP3 Fire Panel User Guide


--- PAGE BREAK ---
-

Making sure that a clear space of at least 500 mm is preserved around
and below all fire detectors.

-

Making sure that all manual call points remain unobstructed and
conspicuous.

-

Making sure to communicate with those responsible for changes to, or
maintenance of, the building to ensure that changes do not compromise
the effectiveness of the system.

•

Updating record documents and operating instructions when building changes
are made.

•

Making sure that the level of false alarms is minimised.

•

Ensuring that the following spare parts are held on the premises:
-

Six replacement glasses and test keys for manual call points (unless the
system has less than twelve manual call points, in which case only two
sets of glasses and keys are required).

-

One set of spare fuses.

-

Any other spare parts recommended by the servicing agent.

Note: BS 5839-1:2002 Section 7 provides recommendations as to how these
responsibilities should be discharged.
Regular procedures
The recommended routine maintenance procedures can be divided into the
following categories:
•
•
•
•

Daily checks
Weekly checks
Quarterly services
Annual services

The daily and weekly checks require no technical knowledge and can often be
carried out by the panel operator, or in-house maintenance staff. It is important
for the person carrying out the testing to be aware of which building functions or
remote alarms will be activated by the system when an alarm occurs.
An authorized Ziton servicing company, usually under maintenance contract,
should carry out the quarterly and annual services. These services are not the
responsibility of the operator or in-house maintenance technician, and are not
covered in this manual.
Repair of faults
The system operator and in-house maintenance personnel should have the
telephone number of the outside company contracted for maintenance, so that
they can call them if a major fault develops which is beyond the capability of the
in-house staff.

Record keeping
The operator should maintain a logbook (see document 503-1842ZE-0-02) at the
control panel. A record of all alarms, events, checks, tests, and repairs should be
entered in this logbook.

Routine maintenance
Note: Occupants of the building and anyone receiving remote alarm signals,
such as the fire department, must be informed before starting with the test or
routine maintenance. They must also be informed when the test or routine
maintenance is complete. No alarms should be activated before notification has
taken place.
Caution: External systems connected to the fire system, such as fire
extinguishing systems, air conditioning systems, or lifts must be temporarily
disabled or disconnected before testing or routine maintenance takes place.
WARNING: All disconnected or disabled systems must be reconnected and
enabled at the end of testing.
Daily checks
Do the following checks every day:
1. Check that the green Power On indicator is illuminated. All other LEDs should
be off except the common Disabled LED (depending on the system status,
e.g. day mode) and the panel should be silent. The display should show the
time and date only.
2. If the panel is indicating a fault alarm, contact the maintenance staff and
arrange for the fault to be rectified.
3. Make sure the logbook (document 503-1842ZE-0-02) is kept up-to-date.
Check that all faults recorded in the logbook the previous day have been
attended to.
4. Make sure that the correct time and date is displayed on the ZP3 panel. If not,
correct the time and date as described under “Menu structure” on page 30.
Weekly checks
Notes
•

Contact the alarm-receiving centre immediately before starting this test to
inform them of the test thus preventing unnecessary response to an alarm.

•

Refer to the appropriate section of this manual for more information about
ZP3 panel operation.

•

The following guidelines are based on the recommendations provided by
BS5839-1 2002.

ZP3 Fire Panel User Guide


--- PAGE BREAK ---
Caution: Before testing the operator must be aware both of the operation of all
devices fitted to any auxiliary circuits and the consequences of their operation.
For example a connection to call the fire brigade.
Do the following checks every week:
1. Make sure you have contacted the alarm-receiving centre informing them of
this test.
2. Check that all LEDs are operational by carrying out a lamp test.
The zones should be varied each month to ensure that they are all tested
over time. The manual call points and fire detectors should be tested on a
rotating basis so that all devices are checked at least once during a threemonth period.
To operate a manual call point use the test key provided. To operate a
detector, use a smoke generator or heat source as appropriate for the type of
detector.
3. Operate at least one device (fire sensor or call point) in each zone.
4. Make sure that the associated sounders operate.
5. Make sure that the alarm was received at the remote manned centre (if
applicable).
6. Make sure that the device triggers the operation of any auxiliary equipment (if
applicable)
7. Accept the alarm, and press the Silence Alarms button, make sure that the
sounders silence.
8. Reset the system.
9. Make sure that the fire alarm events are recorded correctly on the ZP3 panel
printer (if installed).
10. Make sure the printer (if installed) has sufficient paper, that the print ribbon is
not dry and that the paper feeds correctly.
Note: If any defects are discovered during routine testing, they should be
recorded in the logbook (see document 503-1842ZE-0-02). The fault must be
corrected.

ZP3 Fire Control Panel Installation, Commissioning and Maintenance Manual

Preface
This manual is intended for use by the personnel who install and commission the ZP3 Fire Control
Panel, and has been prepared in accordance with ZP3 operating software version 3.11.

General warnings and precautions
Trained service personnel must carry out procedures in this manual.
The ZP3 panel is powered from a 230 VAC primary supply and from a 24 VDC battery backup
supply.

Primary supply
WARNING:

THE POWER SUPPLY FORMS PART OF THE MAIN BOARD ASSEMBLY. THIS ASSEMBLY
CONSISTS OF A CIRCUIT BOARD (INCORPORATING THE POWER SUPPLY), MOUNTED
ON A METAL CHASSIS, WITH THE POWER SUPPLY COVERED BY A METAL ENCLOSURE.
THE ENCLOSURE MUST NOT BE OPENED, AND NON-AUTHORIZED PERSONS MUST
NEVER REMOVE THE CIRCUIT BOARD FROM THE CHASSIS. VERY HIGH VOLTAGE
POTENTIALS EXIST ON THE CIRCUIT BOARD, AND DISASSEMBLING ANY PART OF THE
POWER SUPPLY COULD BE DANGEROUS TO FIELD PERSONNEL.

Connection to the 230 VAC primary supply (+10%, -15%), must comply with National wiring
regulations. The wiring must be permanently connected to the building wiring through a 10 A, 3core cable, and a double pole 10 A isolation switch.
The primary supply must be wired to the correct terminals as follows:
Note:

•
•
•

The earth wire MUST be connected for each installation.

Live = Brown
Neutral = Blue
Earth = Green/Yellow
CAUTIONS:

The incoming mains fuse only breaks the live connection.
Dangerous potential remains on the incoming terminals even when the fuse is
removed.
Dangerous potentials can also exist at other locations on the PCB even with mains
and battery disconnected.

ZP3 Fire Control Panel Installation, Commissioning and Maintenance Manual

Back-up battery supply
CAUTIONS:

The back-up batteries contain substances that are potentially hazardous to your
health and to the environment.
If the back-up batteries are replaced for any reason, the old batteries cannot be
disposed of as unsorted municipal waste in the European Union. See the product
documentation for specific battery information. The batteries are marked with this
symbol, which may include lettering to indicate cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), or mercury
(Hg). For proper recycling, return the batteries to your local supplier or to a
designated collection point. For more information see: www.recyclethis.info.

WARNINGS:

THE BACK-UP BATTERIES, ALTHOUGH AT ONLY 24 VDC, CARRY ENOUGH CHARGE TO
BE DANGEROUS.
When connecting batteries, or when working in the vicinity of the battery terminals,
take care not to accidentally cause a short circuit. In particular metallic tools or
metallic watchstraps can also inflict SEVERE burns to the user as well as cause a
short circuit.
