SAFETY FIRST
THIS EQUIPMENT MUST ONLY BE INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED BY A SUITABLY SKILLED AND TECHNICALLY COMPETENT PERSON. THIS EQUIPMENT IS A PIECE OF CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT AND MUST BE EARTHED. DO NOT CHANGE ANY CONNECTIONS WITH POWER APPLIED.
Installation Procedure: All cables must be installed in accordance with applicable national and regional standards. Fire resistant, screened cable should be used throughout. Mains wiring should be segregated from extra low voltage field wiring. For permanently connected equipment, a readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated external to the equipment.
Testing the Panel: When testing with the lid open, always isolate the Mains and disconnect batteries. Position and connect two 12V batteries as required. The Battery/Power Supply Fault indicator will light and the beeper will sound until Mains power is applied.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How many smoke detectors can be connected to each zone?
Depending on the specific zone requirements, typically each zone can support 20-30 smoke detectors.
Q2: Does the control panel include backup batteries?
The standard package does not include the two DC 12V/2.2AH batteries; they must be sourced separately.
Q3: What should I do if the panel shows an "Open Circuit Fault"?
Check if the wiring is broken or if the End-Of-Line device (EOLD) is disconnected. You may also need to adjust the potentiometer (VR1) to calibrate the zone voltage.
Q4: Is it safe to change connections while the power is on?
No, you must never change any panel connections while the power (Mains or Battery) is applied to avoid damage to the electronic components.
Q5: What are the primary output capabilities of the sounder circuits?
The panel features two sounder circuits. Additionally, ancillary connections allow for expansion modules like repeater panels or multiple sounder outputs.
Q6: What material is the control panel casing made of?
The enclosure is made of high-quality iron for durability and high EMI immunity.
