Main Features
Day/Night The FireClass200 can operate in Day or Night Mode.
If the system is silenced during Day Mode, SILENCE status will be held
until the system is unsilenced (i.e. unless new alarms or faults occur).
If the system is silenced during DAY Mode, SILENCE status will be held
until the system is unsilenced (i.e. unless new alarms or faults occur).Silence will be enabled until the SILENCE button is pressed again.
If the system is silenced during NIGHT Mode, SILENCE status will be for
the preset time (accepted values: 30 seconds to 30 minutes).
This system provides Automatic Alarm Threshold variation.
The preset Alarm Threshold of analogue detectors will be increased during
Day Mode, in order to avoid false alarms caused by persons (cigarette
smoke, etc.) in the protected ambient.

Alarm cycle
If an alarm channel triggers an alarm, the telephone dialler will generate
the respective alarm cycle (as per figure 1).
8 Analogue Fire Control Panel FireClass200
Phase 1 The dialler will switch to the telephone line.
Phase 2 The dialler will wait 3 seconds then will engage the telephone line.
Phase 3 If the Dial-tone check option is enabled (refer to the "Programming" sec-
tion), the dialler will wait for the dial tone.
NOTE: If the dialler does not detect the dialling tone within the preset
time, it will repeat the process 4 times before hooking-up and stepping
back to phase 1.
If this option is disabled the dialler will go directly to the next phase.
Phase 4 The dialler will dial the telephone number associated the with the alarm
channel concerned.
Phase 5 If the Voice answer detection option is enabled (refer to the "Programming"
section), the dialler will wait 25 seconds for a voice answer and, if detected,
will step to the next phase. If the Voice answer detection option 6 is disabled,
the dialler will pause for several seconds before going to the next phase.
Phase 6 The dialler will send the respective alarm channel message. The message
will be played for the preset Message playback time (20, 40, 60 or 80
seconds).
Call cycle The Call cycle (set up during the programming phase) determines the
number of times each telephone number ---- assigned to the alarm channel
concerned ---- will be dialled (1 to 5 times).

control panel is operating with default programming).
[OC1] ... [O16] Bypassable Zone Alarm outputs ---- These are normally-open terminals
(open-collector) which close to ground when the corresponding zones go into
alarm status. These terminals will remain closed to ground even after the generating event has ended. These are non-supervised/non-silenceable outputs
which can be forced to standby by bypassing the zone concerned or rearming
the control panel.
These terminals can be used for selective fire-prevention operations (closure of fire-barrier doors; activation of localized extinguishment systems).
+
The Zone Alarm outputs will not activate if their associated zones are
disabled, however, they will activate as soon as their associated
zones are enabled.

Connectiing Addressable Analogue Devices
The control panel has 2 loops for addressable analogue devices.
WARNING Do not break off the Output module tab.
Each loop supports 99 addressable analogue fire detectors and 99 analogue devices (Input modules, Conventional Zone modules, Output modules, Manual callpoints and Sounders).
Devices of the same type cannot have the same address, therefore, you
must assign a DIFFERENT address to each detector on the loop, and likewise for the modules.
+
Different device types (e.g. Fire detector and module) can have the same
address.

INSTALLATION 27
You can use 2 or 4 wires for the loop connections.
NOTE: The loop connection type must be specified during the programming phase.
Figure 9 illustrates the 2 wire connection to Loop 1.
Figure 10 illustrates the 4 wire connection to Loop 1.
+
The 2 wire connection does not permit more than 32 detectors per loop.
+
The 4 wire connection does not permit T connections.
Connecting Conventional Devices
Connect Conventional devices to terminals 9[ ] and 10[LC+].
Fire detectors Connect the Conventional Fire detectors in parallel to terminals [LC+] and
[ ]. The resistor (2,700 ohm) connected to these terminals must be
moved to the terminals indicated in the instructions of the last device on
the Conventional Line (see fig. 10a).
Manual
callpoints
Connect the Common (C) and the Normally Open (NO) terminals of the
Manual callpoint in parallel to terminals [LC+] and [ ]. When pressed, the
callpoint must not be shorted but must have a 680 ohm resistance. If
the callpoint does not have a 680 ohm resistor, connect one externally. If
the manual callpoint is the last device on the Conventional Line, the EOL
resistor must be connected as per figure 10a.
NOTE: Conventional devices can be connected to the loops by means of
Conventional Zone modules.

Connecting Repeaters and Slave Panels
The RS485 port of the FireClass200 (terminals 15[+485] and 16[--485]) accepts up to 8 FC200/REP repeater panels and 7 FC200/SL slave panels.
Terminals 17[+] and 14[ ] supply the power (27.6 V) to the repeater panels.
The FireClass200 must be programmed as Master, otherwise, it will be unable to communicate with the system repeater panels and/or slave panels.
Assigning addresses
Using the Network option from the System Menu, assign a different address to each slave panel

INSTALLATION 29
Connecting Output Devices
The control panel has 2 Non-supervised outputs, 4 Bell outputs (supervised) and 8 Alarm Repeat outputs (one for each Software zone).
The control panel can manage two FC200/6OUT Output Expanders (accessory items) which provide 6 Bell outputs each.
NOTE: Output devices can be connected to the loops by means of Output
modules.
Bell Outputs
The Bell outputs are indicated by the letter "C" and their address number.
You can fully customize the activation modes and times of the Bell outputs.
+
The address of the Output-Expander Bell outputs depends on the OutputExpander address.
+
The terminal marked "C" is a Type C Output and not a Bell output.
The Type C Output is a Non-programmable, Supervised output.
The Bell outputs can be forced to standby status by means of the SILENCE button. Once an alarm has been acknowledged, you can silence
the audible signalling devices and leave the visual signalling devices active
until the alarm conditions cease.
For example, a connection similar to the wiring diagram in figure 14 will activate the Flasher, the Bell and the visual and audible signalling device of
the Self-powered Siren in the event of an alarm.
Using the SILENCE button will stop the horn but not the flasher, which will
continue to signal Alarm status until the RESET button is pressed.
