SAFETY
It is assumed that the system, of which this control panel is a part, has been designed by a competent fi re alarm system designer in accordance with BS 5839 Part 1 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 fi eld devices and ancillary equipment.

ESD PRECAUTION
www.acornfiresecurity.com
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
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 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
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 reconnect 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 via preformed knockouts at the top and rear of the cabinet. Remove any knockouts and ensure the cabinet is clear of swarf etc prior to re fi tting the PCB. Always ensure that if a knockout is removed, the hole is fi lled with a good quality cable gland. Any unused knockouts must be securely blanked off.
Knockouts should be removed with a sharp tap at the rim of the knockout using a fl at 6mm broad bladed screwdriver.
Use of excessive force will damage the enclosure around the knockout.

Activate Controls
In normal standby mode the keypad controls are inactive to protect from unauthorised operation. Controls can be activated by using the ‘Activate Controls’ key switch or by entering a four digit code using the keypad.
The use of a code entry to activate the controls is enabled by default but can be disabled in the Level 3 engineering functions.
To activate the controls using the key switch;
Turn the key clockwise to the ‘On’ position. The ‘Access Level’ indicator LED will light and all buttons on the keypad will now be operational. To deactivate the controls, turn the key back to the ‘Off’ position and the ‘Access Level’ indicator LED will extinguish.
If the key switch is in the ‘On’ position the keypad will remain active.
NOTE : It is not possible to remove the key in the ‘On’ position.
To activate the controls using the keypad;
Enter the four digit code using buttons 1 - 4. The factory default code is 1-2-3-4 but can be changed in the engineering functions. After entering the four digit code press the ‘ENTER’ button. The ‘Access Level’ indicator LED will light and all buttons on the keypad will now be operational.
After activation by code entry, controls will automatically deactivate again after 2 minutes and the panel will return to standby mode.
The test lamps and mute buzzer functions are operational without the need to activate controls.

DISABLE MODE
Disable Mode is used to disable or isolate individual zone circuits or all sounder circuits, all auxiliary outputs and any delays to outputs.
To initialise Disable Mode fi rstly activate the controls by turning the key switch or by entering the four digit code. Then press and hold the Disable Mode button (1) for 3 seconds.
After 3 seconds the panel will bleep and the General Disablement

After the last available zone the next press will move the selection mode to the sounder circuits, indicated by the Sounder Status LED and then to the Aux outputs, indicated by the Aux Output Status LED and fi nally to the Delay LED. Pressing the button once more will move the selection back to Zone 1 again.
When the desired circuit, outputs or delays to be disabled is indicated by a slow pulsing LED, use the ENTER button to select it. Once selected the indicator LED will change to a rapid pulse. Pressing ENTER again will toggle the circuit between disabled and enabled. Then use Disable Mode button again to move to the next circuit. Any or all circuits, outputs or delays can be disabled simultaneously.

Test Mode is used when testing the fi re alarm system. In test mode the devices in the zone(s) in test, detectors and call points etc, can be activated and the panel will automatically reset, enabling the system to be tested by one person. It is possible to test head removal monitoring and to test the system with or without the sounders.

OPERATING
FUNCTIONALITY DURING A SYSTEM FAULT
A system fault is indicated when a processor controlling a function in the panel has a watchdog time out or processor failure. In the event of a system fault the particular board affected may not be functional. The following indications may be observed.
Display Board
System Fault LED only continous and continous buzzer sound. Display board, TPCA10 is halted and no other indication or control is possible. Fault relay and fault output are activated. If a fi re occurs alarm sounders and outputs will still function.
Main Board
System Fault LED continous and General Fault LED pulsing and continous buzzer sound. Main board is halted. Fault relay is activated.
Repeater Comms Board
System Fault LED continous and General Fault LED pulsing and Repeater Fault LED continous. The
Comms Board TPCA05 is halted. Fault relay and output are active, and repeater panels will cease to function. Fire alarms can still be detected and controlled by the panel.
Power Supply Board
System Fault LED pulsing, General Fault LED pulsing, PSU Fault LED pulsing, continous buzzer sound
(mutable) and fault relay activated. Mains or battery power will still operate the panel. Batteries will not be charging. Indications will remain until the fault is recti fi ed and the panel is reset.
System Fault recovery
System Fault LED pulsing and General Fault LED pulsing along with a pulsed buzzer (fault tone) a system fault has occurred and the affected board has recovered. The indication will remain until the panel is reset.
