Heart Beat Monitor
EQ2400HBM & EA2400HBM
Section I
General Information
The EA2400HBM and EQ2400HBM are handheld instruments, used to trouble shoot communication wiring
problems on the Det-tronics Eagle 2000 and Eagle Quantum systems. The EA2400HBM is for use on Eagle 2000
systems and the EQ2400HBM is for use on the Eagle Quantum systems.
DESCRIPTION / SYSTEM THEORY OF OPERATION
The Heart Beat Monitor provides the means to determine the location of a break or short in the communications
network loop of a Eagle Quantum™ or Eagle 2000™ system . The hand held device is powered by an internal
standard 9V battery and is supplied with a carrying case and test leads.
The Det-tronics Eagle System network communications modules utilize a unique patented technique for detecting
network wiring problems. This feature minimizes the possibility of a communication breakdown in the event of a
wiring fault and can also serve as an aid in troubleshooting. To establish systems integrity a “Systems Heart Beat”
is generated by the Gateway and sent to each module on the system’s network communications loop from the first
network communication port (COM 1). This Heart beat must be received by all communication modules on the
network and return to the second network communications port (COM 2) on the gateway.
If a problem occurs somewhere within the LON network wiring, the systems Gateway annunciates the fault, while
the fault isolation circuitry in the affected nodes isolate the section of the network where the fault has occurred.
A single open or short on the network will not typically affect system communication between the field devices and
the systems Gateway. Systems communication will continue until the wiring problem can be repaired.
The Heart Beat Monitor is supplied with a carrying case and test leads. The monitors carrying case can be
attached to the technicians wrist, via the Velcro strap, to provide hands free operation of the test leads. The
carrying case is provided with a viewing window to view the status LED’s.

OPERATION / SET UP OF EA2400HBM / EQ2400HBM
1- Strap tester module to wrist.
2- Plug test leads into test jacks.
3- Place ON/OFF switch in the “ON” position.
The LED’s (COM 1, COM 2 and Auxiliary) will flash on once.
Connect the test leads to either set of LON communication terminals on the module under test. (see figure 2)
Note: the test lead connections are not polarity sensitive.
The tester’s status LED’s will flash approximately every 4 seconds and display the source (COM 1 or COM 2 of the
main gateway or the auxiliary gateway) of the systems Heart Beat.
OPERATION OF EQ2400HBM FOR EAGLE QUANTUM
With normal operation indicated on the Gateway display, and the Test leads of the Heart Beat monitor connected
to a given communications module’s terminals A & B (COM1 or COM2), the COM 1 LED on the Heart Beat
Monitor will light.
Note: If operating power is lost to a field communications module, a pass-through circuit is created for the network
wiring. This ensures network integrity, even if a node is down for service or has been damaged
When a LON fault occurs, the fault isolation circuitry in the affected node(s) isolates the section of the network
where the fault has occurred. The Gateway will heal the ring allowing communications to continue from COM 1
and the COM 1 LED will continue to be lit.
To isolate a fault with the Heart Beat Monitor, the Eagle Vision™ OIS software must first be used to force the LON
Override function and open the Gateway relay to un-heal the ring. To access the Override, select the Gateways’
point display in the OIS software and then select “LON OVERVIEW”, at the bottom of the display the LON
override button can then be selected. When selected, the nodes on the screens will change to a consistent color
(blue or green). This displays which nodes are receiving communications from the COM1 side of the gateway and
which are receiving communications from the COM2 side.
Using the Heart Best Monitor it is then easy to isolate in the field the point in the LON wiring where the
communications changes COM ports and the exact point of communication failure.

OPERATION OF EA2400HBM FOR EAGLE 2000
With normal operation indicated on the Gateway display, and the Test leads of the Heart Beat monitor connected
to a given communications module’s terminals A & B (COM1 or COM2) , the COM 1 LED on the Heart Beat
Monitor will light.
Note: If operating power is lost to a field communications module, a pass-through circuit is created for the network
wiring. This ensures network integrity, even if a node is down for service or has been damaged
When a LON fault occurs, the fault isolation circuitry in the affected nodes typically isolates the section of the
network where the fault has occurred. The Gateway will start to communicate from both COM 1 and COM 2 thus
allowing communications to continue from the Gateway to the un-isolated modules.
To isolate a LON fault, connect the test leads of the Heart Best Monitor to the suspect communications module’s
terminals A & B (COM1 or COM2). The LED’s will indicate whether communications are originating from COM 1
or COM 2 of the Main Gateway or the Auxiliary Gateway.
Using the Heart Best Monitor it is then easy to isolate in the field the point in the LON wiring where the
communications changes COM ports and the exact point of communication failure.
NOTE
The Heart Beat monitor is designed for use in NON-HAZARDOUS AREA locations only.
Warning: The monitor will be damaged if the leads are connected to the 24VDC terminals by mistake.

MONITOR FAILURE
The Heart Beat Monitor is not designed to be repaired in the field. If a problem should develop, first check the
battery condition and continuity of the test leads. In addition, remember that multiple LON faults (opens/shorts) can
isolate nodes from any heart beat. In this event no LED’s will illuminate. If this is suspect check for a heartbeat
directly from the output terminals of the Gateway or LCU module.
If it is determined that the problem is caused by an internal electronic defect in the monitor, the device must be
returned to the factory for repair. See directions below.
DEVICE REPAIR AND RETURN
Prior to returning devices or components, contact the Detector Electronics Minneapolis MN office so that an RMI
(Return Material Identification) number can be assigned. A written statement describing the malfunction must
accompany the returned device or component to expedite finding the cause of the failure, thereby reducing the
time and cost of the repair.
Pack the unit or component properly. Use sufficient packing material in addition to an antistatic bag or aluminumbacked cardboard as protection from electrostatic discharge.
Return all equipment transportation prepaid to the Minneapolis factory location below, and c/o the Returns goods
department.
