Safety instructions

Notice!

An exclusive Ethernet network is required in order to set up a central fire alarm network. The use of a fire alarm system in any other Ethernet network is at the own risk of the user. Bosch disclaims any and all warranties and liabilities for this misapplication.

In case of non-exclusive Ethernet network reliable alarm transmission and IT-security cannot be ensured.

Notice!

To ensure that the network is set up in compliance with EN 54, use only components that have been approved for use in central fire alarm networks.

Caution!

For access via the internet use only BOSCH Remote Services.

Caution!

Remote Maintenance for Private Secure Network requires a secure IP connection. For this

!which is based on DSL with an optional wireless access on the panel side. Remote Maintenance for Private Secure Network is only available in Germany with a service agreement with Bosch ST-IE.

Notice!

For standard applications, use only standard network settings.

Changes to standard network settings are permitted only for experienced users with appropriate networking knowledge.

Danger!

Laser light.

Do not look directly into the beam with the naked eye or with visual instruments of any kind (e.g. magnifying glass, microscope). Failure to observe this notice poses a danger to the eyes at a distance of less than 100 mm. The light emerges at the visual terminals or at the end of

the fiber optic cables connected to these. CLASS 2M light-emitting diode, wavelength 650 nm, output < 2 mW, in accordance with DIN EN 60825 1:2003 10.reason with Remote Maintenance for Private Secure Network an IP network is provided,

The following settings, notes and restrictions apply to all topologies:

Notice!

For each panel, a maximum of 512 detection points may be connected according to EN 54 2. If this number is exceeded, the panel must be designed redundantly. For technical reasons, a maximum of 2048 detection points can then be connected.

Notice!

If the panel acts as an interface with a CAN sub-loop, this panel must then also be designed redundantly according to EN 54 2 if more than 512 detection points are connected in the subloop.

This restriction does not apply in an Ethernet sub-loop, as the switches to connect the 2 loops perform the redundancy.

Notice!

The network used must meet the following minimum requirements:

Minimum throughput: 1 Mbps

Maximum latency: 250 ms

Notice!

The requirements of EN 54 13 for data transmission paths can only be met with fiber optic cable connections for Ethernet.

Connections within a housing may be established with Ethernet cables.

Notice!

Switches and media converters in Ethernet networks must be installed in panel housings. Installation outside of a panel housing is not compliant with EN 54.

Notice!

To ensure that the network is set up in compliance with EN 54, use only components that have been approved for use in central fire alarm networks.

Notice!

Networks with more than 20 RSTP switches or a diameter greater than 20 require special settings.

The standard setting for the IP configuration is only designed for networks with a maximum of 20 RSTP switches or a maximum network diameter of 20.

Make sure that the RSN assigned to the panel matches that in the programming software. The latter is responsible for setting the last number of the IP address in the standard settings. Activate "RSTP" as the redundancy protocol and adopt the default standard values.

Standard Ethernet settings of FPA

In the standard settings of the FPA, both the FSP 5000 RPS programming software and the control unit adopt the set RSN as the last number of the IP address.

Notice!

Correct setting of the RSN on the panel controllers and in the FSP 5000 RPS programming software is a requirement for a run-capable network.

Notice!

Use of the Ethernet redundancy must be activated separately in the panel controller.

IP settings

IP address 192.168.1.x

The last digit of the IP address in the standard settings is always identical to the RSN set on the panel controller.

Notice!

You can use the standard settings of the IP configuration with networks of up to 20 RSTP switches.

In the case of networks with more than 20 RSTP switches, additional settings are required according to the topology. In-depth knowledge of networks is required for this.

Settings for loops with more than 20 RSTP switches

If there are more than 20 RSTP switches in the network, then you must adjust the RSTP settings on the panel controller and in the programming software. In-depth knowledge of networks is required for this. The panel controllers and RSTP switches are regarded as RSTP switches. Redundant panel controllers are not regarded as RSTP switches, as the switch contained within these is not operated as an RSTP switch.

Parameters

A maximum of 32 nodes can be used in a loop.

The diameter of the network must not be greater than 32, see Network diameter, page 20.

The Ethernet transmission sections outside of the panel housing must be designed as fiber optic cable connections.

Switches must not be used outside of panel housings.

Media converters must not be used outside of panel housings.

A maximum of one panel only and 3 FMR-5000 can be used in a network, in the case of the FPA-1200.

Features

The network is EN 54-compliant.

The network uses RSTP.

Additional information when using the OPC server

OPC servers in your network must be added to the RPS programming software.

You must perform the following settings in both the RPS software and on the OPC server:

Network nodes

Network group

RSN

IP Address

Port

The OPC server uses port 25000 as standard.

Notice!

FSP-5000-RPS programming software:

Note that you must assign the OPC server to each network node from which statuses should be transmitted.

3.2.3Ethernet loop with OPC server

For this configuration, the notes, settings, parameters and features specified in Topologies, page 7 apply.

The information given here expands on Topologies, page 7.

Switch for connecting the OPC server must be programmed separately

Program the IP address and redundancy settings of the switch, see Settings on switch, page 38. As the switch is installed in the immediate vicinity (without intermediate space), the power supply does not have to be designed redundantly and the fault outputs are therefore not used.

Make sure that the RSTP settings in the panel controllers, RPS programming software and switch are identical.

OPC server must be programmed separately

Program the IP address, network nodes, network group and RSN, see OPC servers, page 59. The OPC server uses port 25000 as standard.

Make sure that the settings in the RPS programming software and OPC server are identical.

Parameters

The OPC server may be connected via an Ethernet cable (copper) or fiber optic cable.

3.2.6Ethernet backbone with sub-loops (Ethernet/CAN)

For this configuration, the notes, settings, parameters and features specified in Topologies, page 7 apply.

The information given here expands on Topologies, page 7.

Notice!

This topology requires additional settings for all RSTP nodes in the backbone. More in-depth knowledge of networks is therefore required.

Please note that with this topology you are required to determine the network diameter, see Network diameter, page 20. Only RSTP devices are included in the network diameter, CANnetworked panels are disregarded.

Notice!

If the panel acts as an interface with a CAN sub-loop, this panel must then also be designed redundantly according to EN 54 2 if more than 512 detection points are connected in the subloop.

This restriction does not apply in an Ethernet sub-loop, as the switches to connect the 2 loops perform the redundancy.

Additional settings

You must operate the central loop as the backbone. This must be networked via the Ethernet.

Notice!

For all panels and switches in the backbone, set a higher RSTP priority than in the sub-loops. This ensures that the RSTP root bridge will always remain in the backbone, even in the event of a fault.

The switches to connect the loops are part of the backbone! Use a RSTP priority of 16384 in the backbone.

Notice!

The lower the set value, the higher the RSTP priority.

Settings for loops with more than 20 RSTP devices

Panel controllers connected via CAN are not regarded as RSTP switches when determining the network diameter.

Switches for connecting the OPC server and the sub-loops must be programmed separately

Program the IP address and redundancy settings of the switches, see Settings on switch, page 38. For this topology, the fault outputs of the switch only have to be used if you have designed the power supply for the switch redundantly or there is a switch-to-switch connection, see Switch with power supply and fault relay.

Make sure that the RSTP settings in the panel controllers, RPS programming software and switch are identical.

Notice!

Change the RSTP priority for the switches for connecting the loops, as they belong to the backbone.

3.2.7Connecting Ethernet loops

For this configuration, the notes, settings, parameters and features specified in Topologies, page 7 apply.

The information given here expands on Topologies, page 7.

Notice!

This topology requires additional settings for all RSTP nodes in the backbone. More in-depth knowledge of networks is therefore required.

Additional settings

This topology is a special instance of the Ethernet backbone with sub-loops, see Ethernet backbone with sub-loops (Ethernet/CAN), page 16. You must operate one of the two loops as the backbone.

Notice!

For all panels and switches in the backbone, set a higher RSTP priority than in the sub-loops. This will ensure that the RSTP root bridge will always remain in the backbone, even in the event of a fault.

The switches to connect the two loops are part of the backbone! Use a RSTP priority of 16384 in the backbone.

Notice!

The lower the set value, the higher the RSTP priority.

Switches for connecting the OPC server and the second loop must be programmed separately

Program the IP address and redundancy settings of the switch, see Settings on switch, page 38. For this topology, the fault outputs of the switch only have to be used if you have designed the power supply for the switch redundantly, for connections see Switch with power supply and fault relay.

Make sure that the RSTP settings in the panel controllers, RPS programming software and switch are identical.

Change the RSTP priority for the switches for connecting the two loops, as they belong to the backbone.

OPC server must be programmed separately

Program the IP address, network nodes, network group and RSN, see OPC servers, page 59. The OPC server uses port 25000 as standard.

Make sure that the settings in the RPS programming software and OPC server are identical.

Parameters

– The OPC server may be connected via an Ethernet cable (copper) or fiber optic cable In these examples, loop a is the backbone. Loop b is the sub-loop.

3.3Ethernet network

In the network, the Ethernet network connections are monitored continuously. If a connection has been severed, then the interruption is detected. Repaired connections are also detected.

MAC addresses

Each panel controller has 3 MAC addresses.

MAC address for the host

MAC address for network connection 1 (Eth 1)

MAC address for network connection 2 (Eth 2)

The network diagnosis of the panel always shows you the MAC address of the hosts connected via the network.

3.3.1Protocols

SNMP

SNMP is used to monitor and control network components. To this end, parameters of network nodes can be read out or modified. For this you require the appropriate network management software (e.g. Hirschmann HiVision).

Notice!

The network uses the following SNMP password: PUBLIC

LLDP

LLDP is a basic protocol standardized by the IEEE. It is used to share network information between neighboring devices. This information is

provided as part of the SNMP data

displayed via the panel controller as part of the network diagnostic data

RSTP

RSTP is a network protocol standardized by the IEEE. RSTP ensures that there are no loops in networks. Redundant paths are detected in the network, deactivated and activated when necessary (failure of a connection).

The protocol is used for exactly this purpose in the network.

A change to the bus topology following the failure of a connection is automatically canceled once it has been repaired.

3.3.2Network diameter

The network diameter of FPA-RSTP Ethernet networks must not be greater than 32.

Definition

The diameter of a network corresponds to the number of RSTP switches on the longest possible section without loops between any 2 end points in the network.

The following must be taken into account in relation to a FPA-RSTP Ethernet network:

Each MPC contains an end point and an internal RSTP switch.

A combination of MPC and redundant MPC counts as just one RSTP switch.

Media converters are not regarded as RSTP switches.

CAN connections may not be included in the longest possible section.

OPC servers are not taken into account with respect to the diameter.
