The Siemens Fire Safety FireFinder-XLS

TM

Control System is a powerful intelligent fire alarm control system. FireFinder-XLS utilizes FirePrint—the most advanced fire detection technology in the world.

FireFinder-XLS is designed to provide the most reliable life safety and property protection at the lowest system life cycle cost available anywhere. FireFinder-XLS has been architected to be easy to install, commission and operate. The FireFinder-XLS

System is totally modular to satisfy any size building fire alarm needs.

A basic FireFinder-XLS control system consists of the PMI operator interface and central processor, a PSC-12 power supply and battery charger, a PTB power termination board, a DLC intelligent device loop controller, and ZIC-4A zone indicating card.

This basic two loop system can monitor up to 252 intelligent detectors and devices and provides up to 12 Amps of 24VDC power for use in driving the basic 4 notification appliance circuits. These supervised notification appliance circuits can be software configured for a wide variety of functions— such as standard NAC operation

(bells, horns, chimes), strobes (synchronized or non- synchronized), coded audibles

(Temporal Code 3, Marchtime, Zone Coded, etc), Municipal Tie, Leased Line, Extinguishing agent releasing (FM-200 or Halon) or sprinkler pre-action and deluge applications. The PMI’s large easy-to-read ¼ VGA display simplifies system operator control.

By adding intelligent loop controller cards, FireFinder-XLS can be expanded to support up to 2500 intelligent detectors and devices spread across a flexible number of DLC loops. The system can also be expanded by adding additional CC-5 cardcages and power supplies to support conventional Form C relay modules, network interface cards for remote enclosure communication, conventional detectors and devices and solid state output modules—typically for use in driving graphic annunciators.

The FireFinder-XLS system’s operator interface is designed to make status information presentation clear and system control functions simple to operate. Through the use of soft function buttons on the systems display—prompted by lighted physical buttons—the user can easily “Acknowledge” events, “Silence” or “Unsilence” building audibles, or “Reset” the system. The system status presentation is structured to allow the different types of system events (Alarms, Supervisory, Security, Trouble) to be viewed independently. Each system event presents the user with a custom message describing the location of the alarm report and the type of event (manual alarm, smoke, heat or waterflow). If additional details need to be learned about the nature of the alarm report or its location – the user can depress the illuminated “More

Info” button. Additional text messages, device specific details and simple graphic maps tell the user where they are in the building relative to the alarm report for ease in locating the alarm. For fire fighters responding to the system, standard NFPA Fire

Service icons are presented to alert fire fighters to the availability of fire service equipment (stand pipe locations, sprinklers, building fire hoses, fire hydrants, etc).

Standard HazMat icons are also presented to notify responding officials of possible

DESCRIPTION

FIREFINDER-XLS INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

| CHAPTER 1 hazards or people in that area of the building. Standard NFPA 704 Hazard rating icons can also be used.

The 32-bit microprocessor CPU at the heart of FireFinder-XLS rapidly processes logical decisions based on the status of the smoke detection and other initiating devices to control the system outputs. The object oriented software configuration tool, Zeus, is used to configure the FireFinder-XLS system’s operation based on the customer specified operating requirements.

The System continuously checks all software and hardware for proper operation. It checks all System memory components, control panel electronic hardware, and the

System program. A hardware watchdog circuit is provided to ensure that System programs are functioning properly. If a problem develops with the program or processor, the watchdog circuit places the System into a trouble condition and resets it.

Each module in the FireFinder-XLS System has its own microprocessor. To ensure reliable operation, if the main panel’s central processing unit stops, these modules, operating in degrade, still annunciate any alarm or trouble through common lines called Any Alarm and Any Trouble. All of the modules communicate with the main

FireFinder-XLS central processor through an RS-485 network communications system.

While FireFinder-XLS is designed for multiple applications, such as security point monitoring, the fire alarm operation is always processed as the highest priority over all other operating modes.

CONFIGURATION The table below presents the minimum configuration necessary to meet NFPA 72

Local, Municipal Tie, Remote Station, Proprietary and Central Station, UL 1076, and

NFPA 12A, 13 and 2001.

PSC-12 Power Supply The PSC-12 is a high current power supply that provides the FireFinder-XLS system with primary regulated 24VDC. It is rated at 12A and has a built-in charger that is capable of charging up to100AH batteries. It also has a microprocessor-controlled transfer circuit that allows the PSC-12 to switch the system power to stand-by batteries during loss or reduction of the AC power.

The PSC-12 incorporates an 18A circuit breaker on the battery input. It provides connection to a tamper switch and terminal tie points for system signals.

The PSC-12 communicates directly to the PMI to report fault conditions and allows the PMI to query the status of the power supply. It has four programmable single pole double throw relays. Two relays are defaulted to activate when the degrade

ALARM bus or degrade TROUBLE bus is asserted.

CC-5 Card Cage The CC-5 provides a central point for mounting up to five circuit card assemblies. If a card requires power, it is applied through the removable terminal block at the bottom of the cardcage. All external devices for the card are connected to the card through the two removable terminal blocks at the top of the cardcage.

If a card requires power, it is applied through the removable terminal block at the bottom of the cardcage. All external devices for the card are connected to the card through the two removable terminal blocks at the top of the cardcage.

DLC Device Loop Card The DLC supports one loop (two isolated parallel zones) of up to 252

FireFinder-XLS intelligent field devices as well as device accessories (relay bases, audible bases, and remote lamps) in any combination. The DLC initializes, operates, and maintains all devices residing on the loop and communicates all relevant device and event information, such as alarms and troubles, to the System CPU. The DLC allows the System polarity insensitive devices to be connected without generating errors.

The microprocessor controls the on-board isolator to isolate either zone from the loop if one of them is shorted. When one zone is isolated from the loop, the other zone will still work.The on-board microprocessor provides the DLC with the ability to function and initiate alarm conditions even if the main FireFinder-

XLS CPU fails.

ALERT MODE

Alarm

When an Alarm, Security, Supervisory or Trouble event occurs in the system, the display enters the Alert or Firefighter’s mode automatically. The events are displayed in priority order (Alarm, Supervisory, Security, Trouble), the local audible sounds and the appropriate LED blinks. If the event caused notification appliances to sound, the

Audibles On indicator lights. At the bottom of the screen an Acknowledge soft key is displayed if the highest unacknowledged queue is selected. Pressing this key acknowledges the event and silences the local audible.

Once all events are acknowledged and audibles are silenced, a Reset System soft key becomes available in the lower right side of the display. If notification appliances were active, two additional soft keys become available at the bottom of the screen.

These allow the operator to silence or unsilence the notification appliances (audibles).

When the notification appliances are silenced the Audibles Silenced LED lights.

Press the More Info/+ button to display a screen showing details relating to the selected event. Additional soft keys appear at the bottom of this screen, including one that displays a map of the area in which the event occurred, provided this information has been programmed using the Zeus tool. The operator can return to the previous screen by pressing the (–) button, which is adjacent to the More Info/+ button.

Event counts in PMIs and SSDs may differ because SSDs currently display only

“primitive” (individual) events, while a group PMI whose devices are programmed into groups in Zeus will display only one queue event per group.

INTRODUCTION The eight-channel digital evacuation FireFinder-XLS Voice system can be added to the basic FireFinder-XLS fire alarm system. This is accomplished with the addition of the DAC-NET Digital Audio card and its accompanying submodules (ZAC, LVM/

LPB, SCM-8, ZIC, FMT, TZC) and zone-installed equipment (speakers, strobes, telephones).

The system is capable of automatically or manually signaling to its installed speaker zone circuits (ZAC). The signal can be up to eight channels of prerecorded messages and/or tones including up to two simultaneous channels of live paging. The tones and prerecorded messages are configurable in the Zeus programming tool and are available for upload to each installed DAC-NET. A maximum of 32 DAC-NET modules can be installed in each FireFinder-XLS system. Each DAC-NET may input either its own tone/message to a channel, or it may be programmed to use a tone/message from another DAC-NET in the system.

Individual zone circuits (speaker, strobe, telephone) are bundled into geographic groups during system configuration. These groups are either automatically controlled by pre-programmed system logic, or manually controlled by the switches located on one or more Command Stations. Paging, manual control, or monitoring of the speaker or telephone groups can be performed from any location where an LVM/LPB microphone, SCM switch control module, or PMI is installed.

EQUIPMENT The Control and Indicating equipment of a FinderFinder-XLS Voice system consists of the following components:

• LED Control Module (LCM)

• Switch Control Module (SCM)

• Live Voice Microphone (LVM)

• Firefighters Master Telephone (FMT)

• Telephone Zone Card (TZC)

• Person Machine Interface (PMI)

COMMAND STATIONS Each FireFinder-XLS Command Station configuration is unique. The requirements of the project determine the modules needed to achieve the desired functionality. The

Control view of the Zeus Programming tool is used to configure the Command stations. Each switch on the LVM, SCM and FCM may be configured for any of the manual operations (See page 4-4).

VOICE SYSTEM 4-1

FIREFINDER-XLS INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

| CHAPTER 4

Figure 4-1

Typical FireFinder-XLS Command Stations

A voice system may have one or many different locations of control over the same, or differing, geographically installed equipment. Each control station will generally use

Request/Grant/Deny Access switches for managing controls in differing emergency scenarios, but access restrictions are Zeus-programmable to the degree allowed by the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

A location of voice system control (command station) consists of the following:

1.

A list of Speaker Groups to be controlled/monitored.

2.

A set of Voice Applications to be performed on the Speaker Groups (for example, ALL CALL, SELECT EVAC, DISPLAY ALERT, etc.).

3.

An LVM microphone.

4.

An optional list of telephone groups and an FMT master phone.

5.

Request/Grant/Deny access.

SYSTEM OPERATION

System Indication

Automatic Operation

All voice system faults are reported at the PMI, and at the programmed speaker group control switch. The operator at the PMI is able to ACK, SILENCE/UNSILENCE and RESET voice system events. For example, in the event of an ALL EVAC, the

Audibles LED on the PMI comes on and the Silence Audibles button displays on the

PMI so the system can be silenced from the PMI.

The voice system interfaces automatically to the fire alarm system using the speaker functions in the Function view of the Zeus Programming tool. In reaction to events from the fire alarm system (DLC devices), the voice alarm system activates its pre-programmed alarm procedures. Typically, the voice alarm system broadcasts an alarm signal, which is immediately followed with a prerecorded message on the fire floor, the floor above and the floor below. It is common to have two stage alarms, with evacuation in some areas and alert in others. LEDs indicate the current system status and the floors in which the evacuation or alert signal is sounding.

Since this sequence has occurred automatically, only the events that were predetermined in the original system evacuation plan and programmed into the system configuration program will occur.

A steady red LED indicates that an evacuation signal (tone or message) is being sent to the entire building or to selected areas of the building requesting the occupants to evacuate. It is possible to have two different evacuation signals, EVAC

1 and EVAC 2. EVAC 2 will be overridden by EVAC 1 to the same speaker group.

A flashing red LED indicates that an ALERT signal (tone or message) is being sent to the entire building or selected areas to alert occupants. It is possible to have two different alert signals, ALERT 1 and ALERT 2. ALERT 2 will be overridden by ALERT 1 to the same speaker group.

Once the first few minutes have been dealt with automatically, the voice alarm system can be taken over manually by authorized personnel.

Manual voice operation functions such as emergency paging, evacuation or alert signal activation, firefighters' telephone operation, multiple voice system command center operation, as well as convenience page or background music operation are possible at any time.

Emergency Page allows a live voice page from the emergency microphone to all or selected speaker groups in the building. An optional preannouncement tone preceeds emergency pages for a duration of time set in the Zeus programming tool.

EVAC sends the evacuation tone or message (predetermined in system design) to all or selected speaker groups in the building. The EVAC signal will be overridden by an emergency page to the same speaker group.

It is possible to have two different evacuation signals, EVAC 1 and EVAC 2. EVAC 2 will be overridden by EVAC 1 to the same speaker group.

It is possible to have two different alert signals, ALERT 1 and ALERT 2. ALERT 2 will be overridden by ALERT 1 to the same speaker group.

Convenience Page allows a live voice page from the convenience page microphone to all or selected speaker groups in the building. Convenience pages are a low priority function and will be overridden by an emergency page, an evacuation or an alert signal to the same speaker group.

Background Music sends background music from an external audio input to all or selected speaker groups in the building. Background Music is the lowest priority and will be overridden by an emergency page, an evacuation or alert signal and a convenience page to the same speaker group.

SYSTEM PRIORITIES The priority of requests to a speaker group in the case that multiple signals (audio channels) are requested at the same time are as follows:

1. Emergency Page (highest priority)

3. Evacuation Signal 1 (EVAC 1)

5. Alert Signal 1 (ALERT 1)

7. Convenience Page

2. Warden‘s (Phone) Page

4. Evacuation Signal 2 (EVAC 2)

OPERATION PROCEDURE

Switch Control Module The SCM Switch Control Module is used for manual control of the fire system. The

SCM-8 contains eight switches and eight pairs of LEDs. Each LED pair contains one bi-color (red/green) and one yellow LED. The functions of the switches and LEDs are programmed using the Zeus programming tool. All LEDs can be programmed ON,

OFF, or FLASHING.

An “Acknowledge Tone“ sounds on a local sounder for any switch press when a CAN

Sounder Board is installed.

An “Invalid Tone” from the LVM or CAN Sounder Board sounds on a local sounder for an invalid switch press. For example, a switch press at a non-active control station produces an invalid tone.

Live Voice Microphone The LVM Live Voice Module provides firefighters with a means of sending live voice messages to specified audio zones. The LVM has a push-to-talk switch on the microphone, as well as a retractable coiled cord. Both the push-to talk switch and the microphone are supervised. The LVM has a built-in speaker to preview active tones and messages at any speaker group. Each of the six switches is programmable in the

Zeus tool.

FIREFINDER-XLS INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

To select All Page, follow the steps listed below.

1.

Pick up the Live Voice Microphone.

2.

Depress the All Page switch.

3.

The All Page switch and All Speaker Group switch LEDs flash green.

4.

Depress the key on the Live Voice Microphone

5.

The All Speaker Group switch LEDs turn steady green, indicating that all speaker groups are now turned on.

6.

Once the microphone is keyed, a preannouncement tone sounds on all speaker groups for approximately 3 seconds (0-10 seconds is programmable in Zeus).

7.

While the preannouncement tone is sounding, the Pre-Announce Tone

LED is on steady to give visual indication tol the operator of what is currently sounding.

8.

When the preannouncement tone ends, the Pre-Announce Tone LED turns off and the Ready to Page LED turns on telling the operator to proceed with the page.

9.

The operator can now speak and make the page to all speaker groups.

10. During the page, the operator can briefly (for up to 5 seconds) unkey and then re-key the microphone (for example, to cough) - without re-initiating the pre-announce tone.

11. To end the page, the operator simply unkeys and replaces the microphone.

The Ready to Page LED turns off.

12. All Speaker Group switch LEDs turn from steady green to flashing green.

13. To return the system to normal, the operator depresses the All Page switch; otherwise, the system will automatically return to normal in approximately 1-2 minutes and turn off the All Page and Speaker Group

LEDs.

This sequence of operation assumes the system is normal and no alarms exist. If there were alarms in the system, the All Page would operate the exact same way - except that the speaker groups that were receiving an evacuation or alert signal would be overridden by the Page. Once the Page ends, the previously sounding evacuation or alert signals would resume on the floors/groups that were sounding before the page.

Select Page

Select Page sends the emergency page message from the Live Voice Microphone

(LVM) to selected speaker groups in the system. Choosing Select Page cancels

Select Evacuation, Select Alert, Select Convenience Page and Select Background

Music.

To select Select Page, follow the steps listed below.

1.

Pick up the Live Voice Microphone.

2.

Depress the Select Page switch and then the switch for the desired individual speaker group.

3.

The Select Page switch and the selected Speaker Group switch LEDs flash green.

Speaker Groups Speaker Groups are formed in the Geographic View of the Zeus Programming tool and consist of all voice equipment (e.g. amplifiers, strobes, telephones) descending from a group.

A Speaker Group is a switch comprised of one or more speaker and/or strobe circuits in an area of a building. These loudspeaker and/or strobe circuits can be activated and deactivated with a switch press.

Pressing the Speaker Group switch when the speaker group is normal and a SELECT function switch is active places the speaker group into the current SELECT state. If the current SELECT state is EVAC1, it sends the EVAC1 message to that zone.

Setting a speaker group to a higher priority state places the speaker group in the new state. Pressing the switch again removes the speaker group from the state. If a lower priority state is still active, the switch reverts to that state.

If the speaker group was automatically activated, pressing the switch silences the speaker group.

ALARM VERIFICATION Alarm verification provides FireFinder-XLS with a way to verify an alarm from area type addressable smoke detectors connected to intelligent loops (DLC or HZM). This feature reduces the incidence of false alarms. Only detectors that do not contain an integral alarm verification feature can be used.

Addressable detectors connected to DLCs indicate that an alarm condition has been detected. If the device is subject to alarm verification, the DLC alerts the control panel that the device has entered verification but is not yet considered to be in alarm.

The DLC starts a timer using the FireFinder-XLS system Retard-Reset Period programmed in the Zeus tool allowing conditions at the device to stabilize. When the timer expires, the DLC begins the fixed 60-second confirmation period. If the device is no longer in alarm during the confirmation period, the verification cycle is considered complete and detection of a subsequent alarm from that device results in the verification cycle restarting. If the device still reports in the alarm state during this confirmation period, the alarm condition is reported to the control panel and the system annunciates the alarm condition.

See the figure below for a graphic illustration of Alarm Verification.

For devices connected to the DLC, the Detector Restart period is 0 seconds.

APPLICATION SPECIFIC DETECTION

Application Specific Detection (ASD) allows the system designer (and anyone with

Control menu access) to program an HFP-11 detector’s sensitivity, pre-alarm threshold, and other alarm-related parameters using English descriptions of the detector's environment (application). This eliminates the need for detailed knowledge of smoke detector terminology and operation. The designer can set all of the critical detector parameters by simply selecting an application description that closely fits the one where the detector is to be installed.

For example, to use ASD to select the optimal parameters for a detector in a hotel lobby, select the LOBBY application in the Zeus tool for that device. The system will automatically transmit the factory determined sensitivity, pre-alarm threshold, and detection algorithm (R-algorithm) to the corresponding device. This eliminates the guesswork of selecting these parameters for different environments.

INTELLIGENT ENVIRONMENTAL COMPENSATION (IEC)

Intelligent Environmental Compensation (IEC) is an optional feature that permits the

FireFinder-XLS system to compensate automatically for environmental changes (such as dirt and dust buildup) in the analog voltage of an HFP-11 detector. The selection of

IEC devices is made in the Zeus programming tool.

Once a detector is chosen to be covered by IEC, FireFinder-XLS stores and analyzes the analog readings of the smoke detector and adjusts the detector’s threshold upward or downward, as necessary, to maintain a constant sensitivity.

As the analog voltage increases due to environmental factors, an equivalent increase in the detector’s alarm threshold prevents factors other than smoke from causing an alarm. This method maintains the selected detector’s sensitivity.

Typically, the analog voltage changes slowly over long periods of time for environmental factors, but changes quickly over short periods of time for actual smoke.

Initial System Power-Up When a new or modified Zeus configuration is loaded into a system, the FireFinder-XLS

PMI goes through an initial system power-up. FireFinder-XLS does not keep the IEC option where it was formerly applied when this new system powers up. The IEC memory re-initializes, and then FireFinder-XLS begins adjusting the alarm thresholds wherever IEC is selected in the new Zeus configuration.

Adjusting the Alarm

Threshold When a New

Zeus is Uploaded After FireFinder-XLS checks that the actual ID of a device with IEC agrees with Zeus, it adjusts the detector’s alarm threshold according to the data stored. The first adjustment occurs after 100 hours of data accumulation. In the case of power cycling or resetting, adjustments begin within 90 seconds.

If a detector with IEC reports an alarm condition before the detector’s alarm threshold is adjusted, the alarm delays until the alarm threshold is adjusted. If the device continues to report an alarm condition once its alarm threshold is adjusted, the alarm reports.

If the Zeus and the device ID do not agree, the IEC for that device does not activate until the trouble condition is removed from the system and the panel is reset.

Ongoing Adjustments of the Alarm Threshold Environmental conditions usually cause a small change in the analog voltage over a long period of time. At regular intervals FireFinder-XLS collects analog data for each detector with IEC and adjusts the alarm threshold accordingly. FireFinder-XLS adjusts for both up and down changes in the analog voltage. In addition, if system power is lost, FireFinder-XLS adjusts the alarm thresholds as needed by using stored data.

IEC Trouble Conditions A trouble condition involving the IEC may be annunciated by the FireFinder-XLS PMI as:

PRE-DIRTY ANALOG VOLT. REACHED

OR

IEC LIMIT REACHED. SERVICE REQ

The trouble conditions shown above are annunciated on a detector-by-detector basis as each detector is checked.

FireFinder-XLS annunciates a trouble condition for a detector when its alarm threshold reaches a predetermined limit. The operator should acknowledge the trouble, clean the detector if possible, and reset the control panel. If the detector is not cleaned, the control panel annunciates this trouble condition after every panel reset until the detector is cleaned.

SECURITY POINT INSTALLATION

These circuits are intended for 24 hour alarm monitoring only.

UL 1076 requires an HTSW-1 tamper switch as well as a PAL-1 printer. Only Models

HTRI-S/-D/-R may be used as security points. A COMMUNICATION FAILURE with an

HTRI device configured for SECURITY results in a SECURITY EVENT as well as a communication trouble. When installing an HTRI device in the Zeus tool, be sure to set the device usage to security; otherwise, the device usage defaults to fire alarm.

• When setting the device address using the DPU, select the normally closed alarm causing input.

• Connect only one switch per HTRI input.

For proprietary burglary application (UL 1076):

• Use an HTSW-1 tamper switch to monitor the main enclosure.

• Monitor each HTRI-S/-D/-R related to this application for 24 hours by using a listed motion detector (to prevent tampering).

• Monitoring of security points is performed at the PMI. The PMI is suitable for installation at either the protected premises or remotely as a receiving unit.
