Operating the panel

Resetting the panel

Pressing Reset places the panel in the reset state. The panel should not be reset until the appropriate authority has determined that the hazard is no longer present.

When you reset the panel:

• All LEDs on the panel light for five seconds

• The trouble and power lights remain on for an additional

15 seconds

• When reset is complete, the buzzer sounds (then turns off) and the trouble LED turns off

In this state:

• All panel indicators are temporarily cleared

• All notification appliances are turned off

• All latched IDCs are cleared

• Alarm, trouble, and supervisory relays are returned to the inactive state

• Auxiliary power (if programmed as resettable) momentarily turns off

At the conclusion of the reset, if an IDC is in an off-normal state, the panel treats the event as a new event and activates the programmed responses. Pressing Disable for the active

IDC within 30 seconds after the panel has reset turns off the

NACs and disables the IDC.

If one or more IDCs are disabled prior to initiation of the reset, those IDCs remain disabled.

If signal silence inhibit or reset inhibit is enabled, system reset is inhibited during the silence or reset inhibit period.

To reset the panel:

1. Press the Reset button.

Silencing panel and FSRSI buzzers

Both the panel and the optional FSRSI module have buzzer silence buttons. Pressing the Panel Silence button silences the buzzer on the panel and on remote FSRSIs.

Pressing the FSRSI Silence button silences the buzzer on the

FSRSI only.

To silence the panel buzzer:

1. Press the Panel Silence button on the panel.

2. Determine the type of condition that caused the buzzer to sound: alarm, trouble, supervisory, or monitor.

3. Determine the cause of the condition.

To silence an FSRSI buzzer:

1. Press the Silence button on the FSRSI.

2. Determine the type of condition that caused the buzzer to sound: alarm, trouble, supervisory, or monitor.

3. Determine the cause of the condition.

Silencing notification appliances

Pressing the Signal Silence & Drill button turns off all audible devices. Visual devices or NAC circuits may or may not turn off, depending on panel programming.

When you silence the signals, the Signal Silenced LED lights, indicating that the notification appliances are off. The panel does not indicate a trouble condition. If GENESIS, horn/strobe, or horn-only devices are used on NACs programmed for GENESIS operation, Signal Silence & Drill silences only the horns.

WARNING:

The notification appliances should not be silenced until the building is fully evacuated and the cause of the alarm has been determined.

To silence notification appliances:

1. Press the Signal Silence & Drill button.

When the auto signal silence timer is programmed

When an event activates the notification appliances, the 20minute auto signal silence timer is activated. The notification appliances are activated for the 20-minute period. When the timer expires, any NACs that are programmed as silenceable are deactivated, and the Signal Silenced LED is illuminated.

If another event takes place that activates the previously silenced notification appliances, the Signal Silenced LED turns off. At any time, you can deactivate silenceable NACs by pressing Signal Silence & Drill.

Note:

NACs activated by IDCs programmed as waterflow cannot be silenced until the activated devices are restored to normal. After the devices restore, the Signal Silence & Drill button or the auto signal silence timer can silence the NACs.

Resounding an alarm condition

Pressing the Signal Silence & Drill button again turns the audible devices back on if they were silenced.

To resound notification appliances:

1. Press the Signal Silence & Drill button.

Note:

NACs resound automatically if a new alarm (from another IDC) is received.

1.4



Disabling an IDC

Pressing an IDC Disable button prevents the panel from responding to any status change from that IDC. When you disable an IDC:

• The common Disable LED double-flashes

• The IDC Trouble LED double-flashes

• The common Trouble LED lights and the panel goes into a trouble state

• The common trouble relay changes state

Resetting the panel has no effect on a disabled IDC, but removing all power from the panel clears the disable and enables the IDC.

Note:

During an alarm condition, all flashing LEDs go steady.

To disable an IDC:

1. Press the Disable button for the IDC that you want to disable.

Disabling a NAC

When you disable an NAC:

• The common Disable LED double-flashes

• The NAC Trouble LED double-flashes

• The common Trouble LED lights and the panel goes into a trouble state

• The common trouble relay changes state

Resetting the panel has no effect on a disabled NAC, but removing all power from the panel clears the disable and enables the NAC.

To disable a NAC:

1. Press the Disable button for the NAC that you want to disable.

Re-enabling an IDC or NAC

You can re-enable a disabled IDC or NAC. When you reenable an IDC or NAC:

• The common Disable LED turns off

• The IDC or NAC trouble LED turns off

• The common Trouble LED turns off and the panel returns to normal

• The IDC or NAC LEDs are updated to show current status (e.g. if the IDC or NAC is in trouble, the Trouble

LED lights). After enabling an IDC, alarms from that IDC are inhibited for 30 seconds. During this time the IDC can be disabled to avoid an unwanted alarm.

To re-enable an IDC or NAC:

1. Press the Disable button for the IDC or NAC you want to re-enable.

Using the drill command

You can use the drill command to activate all of the notification appliance circuits. Pressing Drill activates all audibles and visuals according to the panel programming, but does not activate the Alarm relay. The FSDACT can be programmed to transmit a drill condition, but it will never report the drill as an alarm. Drill will not operate with an active alarm or supervisory event at the panel.

To perform a fire drill:

1. Press and hold the Signal Silence & Drill button for one second.

2. To stop the drill, press and hold the Signal Silence & Drill button for one second.

Using the walk test command

A walk test lets you test IDC zones without having to create an actual alarm condition. You can conduct a walk test in silent or audible mode. In silent mode the audible devices

(NACs) do not sound. Walk test will not operate with an active alarm or supervisory event at the panel.

Zones should be placed in walk test one at a time. This allows the balance of the system to remain in service.

In a walk test, the panel responds to the first signal it receives and ignores all others on that IDC until it clears that signal or the panel is reset. The input must be restored to the normal state before the next input is tested. When the input is restored, the panel automatically resets the circuit being tested. The automatic reset takes eight seconds. After the circuit is reset the next device can be tested.

The panel terminates the walk test if any of the following occur:

• The panel enters an alarm or supervisory state

• There are 30 minutes of inactivity on the zone being tested

• The panel is reset

• Walk Test is pressed

When you press Walk Test:

• The Walk Test LED flashes for an audible walk test and is steady for a silent walk test

• The panel enters a trouble state. There is no fire protection for the IDC in walk test. If an unselected IDC goes into alarm or trouble, all programmed outputs operate as programmed.



The IDC you are testing behaves as follows:

• For alarm events, the appropriate panel, FSRSI, and

FSRZI-A LEDs and buzzers are turned on

• In the audible test mode the notification appliances sound for a number of times equal to the zone number (e.g. three rings for zone three)

• After activation, the panel resets the IDC. This will take eight seconds. During the reset period, the IDC trouble

LED fast-flashes. If the device being tested is not restored, the IDC does not reset. If the device is restored

(no alarm is present) the panel is ready to test another device or detector.

• If auxiliary power is programmed as resettable, the auxiliary power is deactivated while the zone is reset

• Input zones programmed as waterflow with retard require

10 to 15 seconds of activation to initiate the test signals

• For trouble events, the appropriate LEDs and the buzzers are turned on. In the audible (NAC) test mode a onesecond pulse sounds on the audible devices. After sounding, the zone resets in preparation for continued testing.

• For ground fault events, the appropriate LEDs and the buzzers are turned on. In the audible (NAC) test mode a one-second pulse sounds on the audible devices. After sounding, the zone resets in preparation for continued testing.

To conduct an audible walk test:

1. Press the Walk Test button once.

2. Press the Disable button for the IDC you want to test.

3. Conduct your walk test for the IDC.

4. When you are finished testing an IDC, press the Disable button to turn off the walk test for that IDC.

5. Select another IDC to walk test (steps 2 through 4) or exit from the walk test by pressing the Walk Test button.

To conduct a silent walk test:

1. Press the Walk Test button two times.

2. Press the Disable button for the IDC you want to test.

3. Conduct your walk test for the IDC.

4. When you are finished testing an IDC, press the Disable button to turn off the walk test for that IDC.

5. Select another IDC to walk test (steps 2 through 4) or exit from the walk test by pressing the Walk Test button.

Installation

Installing the Remote Relay Module

The Remote Relay Module (FSRRM) provides five dry contact relay outputs. The outputs can be wired as both normally open and normally closed. The outputs can be set to common or zone notifications (see the “Command options” table below). Installing the appropriate jumper (JP3 - JP5) configures the dry contact relay output options.

Five diagnostic LEDs provide visual indication of the status of each relay. If the LED is lit, the relay is energized. If the LED is off, the relay is de-energized. If configured for common operation the trouble relay and the power relay will be energized when the system is normal.

Installing the FSDACT

The FSDACT is a digital alarm communicator transmitter

(DACT) that transmits panel events to a compatible digital alarm communicator receiver (DACR). Messages are transmitted over standard loop-start telephone lines. The dialer is capable of split reporting to two different account and telephone numbers.

In addition to the DACT functions, this module includes:

• An alphanumeric LCD to display system

messages and programming prompts

• An event history log of panel and DACT events, viewable through compatible software

• A modem for uploading and downloading panel configuration, history, and current status to a PC running compatible software

Note:

The FSDACT modem is only rated for 2400 baud communication. Some PC modems may not be compatible with this baud rate.

The FSDACT can be programmed to operate as a single or dual line DACT/Modem/LCD display, a Modem/LCD display, or an LCD display only. For the FSDACT to be

NFPA 72 CS compliant, the following is required:

1. The factory installed warning label must be removed from the FSDACT's line two phone jack.

2. A second phone line, independent of that used for line one must be connected to phone jack two.

3. The FSDACT must be programmed for dual line operation.

4. The FSDACT must be programmed for a daily transmission test frequency.

UL 864 compliance requires the dual line setting.

The FSDACT can be configured for attended or unattended downloading. JP1 is a wire loop (located near the top of the

FSDACT) that controls which download method is used.

Leaving the JP1 wire loop intact configures the FSDACT for attended downloading. The panel will not allow changes to the panel or dialer configuration unless the program jumper is inserted. It will allow changes to receiver information (account code, telephone numbers, etc.). UL requires the red wire loop to be intact for all remote station systems.

Cutting the JP1 wire loop configures the FSDACT for unattended downloading. This means that the program jumper need not be inserted to accept any panel or dialer configuration changes.

NFPA 72 1999 edition states in 7-1.6.2.1 that reacceptance testing shall be performed after any change to site-specific software.

"All components, circuits, systems operations, or site-specific software functions known to be affected by the change or identified by a means that indicates the system operational changes shall be 100 percent tested. In addition, 10 percent of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, also shall be tested, and correct system operation shall be verified. A revised record of completion in accordance with 1-6.2.1 shall be prepared to reflect any changes.”

For additional download security, the FSDACT can be programmed to perform a call back function. This call back option applies whether the FSDACT is configured for attended or unattended downloading.

Overview

Program options and settings

The features and functions of FireShield can be customized through programming. To customize the panel, you choose a program option, then choose a setting for that option. This chapter shows you how to program the panel.

Programming methods

FireShield panels can be programmed using either of two methods.

First, you can use the panel’s LEDs and switches, with or without an FSDACT installed.

Second, you can use a PC with an FSDACT installed. PC programming requires an optional software package, the

FireShield Configuration Utility (model number FSCU). Refer to the FSCU online help system for complete programming instructions.

Programming LEDs

In programming mode, the top row of panel LEDs indicates which program option is selected. Each LED is assigned a binary number, and the total value of the top row equals the option number. If you are not familiar with binary numbers, you can simply match the pattern of the LEDs with the programming instructions.

Each option has a number of possible settings. The bottom row of panel LEDs indicates which setting is selected for the current option. The settings are detailed below in “Custom programming the panel.” Again, each LED is assigned a binary number, and the total value of the bottom row equals the setting number.

The values of all LEDs lit on a single row are added to determine the option or setting number. For example, if the

Gnd Fault, Walk Test, and Signal Silenced LEDs are lit, the value is 7 (4+2+1). This means that setting seven for the current option is selected.


Programming

Using the factory default settings

The panel comes from the factory programmed with a predefined set of defaults. The default settings are:

Find annunciators

Auto signal silence timer

None found

Aux power reset No

Signal silence/reset inhibit timer None

IDC zone types Alarm (unverified)

All IDCs activate all NACs

IDC class

NAC class

NAC output (NAC1 – NAC4)

Class B

Class B

GENESIS

Silenceable

For a more detailed list of defaults, see Appendix B,

“Programming templates.”

If you want to use the factory programmed settings as they are, you do not need to perform any programming. If you do

not want to use the panel’s default settings, refer to “Custom programming the panel.”

Note:

You must run the Find Annunciators program option after adding or removing a remote annunciator. The remote annunciators will not operate properly until the panel detects them. These include the FSRSI, FSRZI-A, and FSRRM.

Reloading the factory default settings

When you reload defaults, you return the panel to the factoryprogrammed settings. The primary purpose for loading the defaults is to return the panel to its original settings if the need arises. You can then start fresh by using these settings or custom program one or more options.

To reload the default settings:

1. Install program jumper PRG.

The panel common LEDs flash and the panel enters a trouble state. The trouble buzzer sounds.

2. Press Remote Disconnect to select the Load Defaults program option.

3. Press Reset to select Yes, the setting to reload the factory default settings.

4. Press Panel Silence to perform the reload.

The trouble buzzer sounds a long beep as confirmation.

5. Exit program mode by removing the program jumper or continue to the next topic to custom program the panel.

Refer to “Custom programming the panel” for more information.

Using an FSDACT

If you have an FSDACT connected to your system, it must be recognized by the panel before programming. Also, if you remove an FSDACT from your system, it must be removed from the panel’s memory.

To do this, install the program jumper (PRG), then remove the program jumper. This allows the panel to recognize that an

FSDACT was installed or removed from the system.

Custom programming the panel

FireShield functionality can be custom programmed when the factory defaults do not meet your needs. The following options can be custom programmed: defaults annunciators

3. Auto signal silence timer

4. Aux power reset

5. Signal silence/reset inhibit timer

6. IDC zone types (and NACs that activate) class

8. NAC output

10. NAC silenceable

11. Program FSDACT (if installed)

Tip:

We recommend that you program the options in the order they are listed. This matches the order of the LEDs as you increment through each option. The lighting pattern of the

LEDs corresponds to the program option you are programming and follows the binary number pattern associated with each row of LEDs.

Maintenance

Preventive maintenance

Before commencing testing, notify all areas where the alarm sounds and off-premises locations that receive alarm and trouble transmissions that testing is in progress.

• Records of all testing and maintenance shall be kept as required by the authority having jurisdiction.

• Required tools:

-Slotted screwdriver, insulated

-Digital multimeter

-1.1 k

Ω

, 1 W resistor

-12 in (30.5 cm) jumper lead with alligator clips

-Panel door key

-Sound level meter

• A complete check of installed field wiring and devices should be made at regular intervals in accordance with

NFPA 72, Canadian Electrical Code Part I, ULC S524, and S536 requirements. This includes testing all alarm and supervisory initiating devices and circuits and any off-premises connections.

• Panel operation should be verified in the alarm, supervisory, and trouble modes.

• To ensure that the panel can be powered when primary power is lost, the batteries should be periodically inspected, tested, and replaced (at a minimum) every four years.

Preventive maintenance schedule

Refer to NFPA 72, Chapter 7 Inspection, Testing, and

Maintenance, Canadian Electrical Code Part I, ULCS524, or

ULCS536 for more information on required inspection and testing methods and frequency of fire alarm systems and devices. For detector sensitivity and functionality testing, refer to the detector manufacturer's installation instructions.

Canadian tests for grounds, opens, and shorts

ULC requires that you test ground fault, open circuit, and short circuit indications.

For ground fault tests, directly short one leg of the circuit to chassis ground

.

The Ground Fault and Trouble LEDs must light.

For NAC and IDC open circuit tests, remove the EOL resistor from the last device on the circuit. The Trouble LED must light.

For NAC short circuit testing, place a short across each NAC output individually. The individual NAC LED must light as well as the common LED.

For AUX power short circuit testing, place a short across the

+24 V and -24 V at the panel. The common trouble LED must light.

For communications testing, place a short across C+ and C-.

The annunciator trouble LED must light.
