Installation
Notice!
Install the fire panel in a location easily accessible to emergency response teams (e.g. fire department).
Note permissible environmental conditions.
Install the fire panel at a height above the ground that permits convenient operation by the user and easy reading of the LCD display.
Inserting the Cable
Route the necessary cables for zones, inputs and outputs, as well as the power supply, etc., and carefully punch out the cable entries needed for this.
Warning!
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)! Electronic components could become damaged. Ground yourself using a wrist strap or take other suitable measures.

Remove the PC board if necessary. This is secured in the housing with a grounding screw and snap-fit hook.
For cable entry on the upper side of the housing, use the preformed round holes. For more stable insertion, M 20 x 1.5 screw joints (PG13.5) can be used.
The cable entries on the rear are intended for direct cable entry of flush mounted cables.
3.2.2
Opening the Housing
Remove the cover of the fire panel. Loosen both screws on the underside of the housing, lift up the cover approx. 20° and remove it.

3.2.3
Installing the Housing
Use the panel housing to draw drill holes at the desired location on the wall (arrows in figure below). As an option, you can use the mounting dimensions indicated on the back of the housing.
Ensure that the housing is aligned horizontally and draw on the holes using the built-in spirit level in the upper left corner. The dimensions can be taken from the drilling jib on the rear of the housing. Drill the holes.
Guide the cables routed under plaster through the punched out cable ducts on the rear of the housing into the housing. Mount the housing to the wall using screws. Make sure that cables are not pinched.
Then guide the cables routed on plaster through the cable entries to the upper side of the housing.

3.2.4
Mains Supply
The fire panel requires a 230 V mains supply for the power supply. Route the power supply so that the line does not cross or touch the signal line.
Use the left M 20 x 1.5 screw joint (PG13.5) on the upper side of the panel for the 230 V mains supply.
Notice!
Note local regulations when connecting to 230 V power supplies.
Wire up the 230 V power supply to the screw clamp provided on the power supply unit board. Use a cable tie to ensure strain relief of the power supply feeder in the housing above the power supply unit.
Danger!
Only perform installation work when the panel has no voltage.
There is a danger of an electric shock.

Batteries, 24 V Emergency Power Supply
You can use two 12 V batteries with maximum 7.2 Ah each in the housing as emergency power supply.
The batteries are connected in series. If the mains power fails, they are used to ensure interruption-free power supply of the fire panel and the components fed by them.
Notice!
The fire panel can also only be started with the batteries if the power supply is disconnected.
After you have placed the batteries in the housing, secure them using the plastic foam blocks provided.
Position the plastic foam blocks in between the top of the batteries and the housing.
There are different emergency current back-up times depending on the battery capacity used and the current consumption of the components connected to the panel. You can calculate this using the battery calculator included on the CD.
After troubleshooting a mains fault and operating the fire panel via emergency current, the power supply unit switches back to mains operation automatically. The batteries are charged again automatically.
Notice!
Note the polarity of the batteries.
If the batteries are connected with the polarity reversed, the thermal fuse on the main board of the fire panel reacts.

Notice!
The screw terminals are designed for a cable diameter of
0.8 mm and for cable cross sections of up to 1.5 mm 2 .
The fire panel is designed for unshielded cable. If you do use shielded cable, only connect the cable shielding to the earth bar on one side above the power supply unit.
Terminal resistances
The zones of the fire panels must be terminated. Use either resistors or in case of EN 54-13 (BOSEC certificate TCC 2 - 977) the EOL modules.
Notice!
Only use resistors with a maximum 1% tolerance.
The 3.9 kOhm resistors are supplied.
3.3.1
Inputs
820Ω ± 5%
The fire panel offers two control inputs. You can assign different
functions to these depending on programming (see Configuring
Inputs, page 47).
The connection terminals IN1 and IN2 are available.
Notice!
Note that the maximum line resistance for inputs is 22.5 ohm.
Use 820 Ohm ±5% resistors for the alarm resistance (not included in scope of delivery).

The voltage of the zones is 20 VDC ±1 V.
The maximum current of the zones is 100 mA ±5 mA.
Notice!
Observe local regulations for the maximum number of detectors in a zone.
When using the FLM-320-EOL4W Module, use the battery calculator included on the CD.
Notice!
The last zone of the fire panel supports the use of 4-wire detectors.
The fire panel does not support dual-detector dependency with
4-wire detectors.
Please use permissible external power supply units depending on power consumption.
Notice!
Activating a manual call point in a zone programmed as "No
Delay" triggers an immediate alarm.
Notice!
Only use manual call points in zones which are programmed as
No Delay.
