Chapter 1

System overview and operation

If the optional FSDACT is installed, the panel:

•Sends a record of the event to the FSDACT LCD and to the history log

•Uses the FSDACT to transmit event messages to a monitoring station as programmed

System overview

FireShield is available in three models: three-zone, five-zone, and ten-zone. Each model is similar except for the number of initiating device circuits (IDCs) and notification appliance circuits (NACs), as shown in the following table.

Model	IDCs	NACs
FS302 (three-zone)	3	2
FS502 (five-zone)	5	2
FS1004 (ten-zone)	10	4

Model numbers may have the following suffixes: G or R indicates gray or red enclosure, GD or RD indicates panel with FSDACT, GC indicates ULC panel with terminal shield, GF indicates a French ULC panel with terminal shield, and G-2 indicates 230 Vac input.

Each panel is configured for Class B operation. All models except for the three-zone can be easily converted to Class A by using two Class B circuits to make one Class A circuit.

FireShield has the following optional components:

•Remote System Indicator (FSRSI)

•Remote Zone Indicator (FSRZI-A)

•Remote Relay Module (FSRRM)

•Power Expander Transformer (XTR3A120, XTR3A230) (ten-zone only)

•DACT (Dialer)/Modem (FSDACT)

•City Tie Module (CTM4.7)

•Reverse Polarity Module (RPM)

•Battery Cabinet (BC-2)

Refer to Chapter 2 “Installation” for optional module details.

Operations overview

The panel operates in normal mode in the absence of any alarm, supervisory, trouble, or monitor events. In normal mode, the control panel monitors the system.

The panel operates in off-normal mode any time an event is introduced into the system. When this happens, the panel:

•Changes contact positions on appropriate common relays

•Activates alarm outputs (for alarm events only)

•Turns on the appropriate LEDs and the panel buzzer

•Executes the appropriate programmed output response for the input that signaled the event

•Communicates event information to appropriate optional components (FSRSI, FSRZI-A, CTM4.7, or RPM)

System overview and operation

Operating the panel

Resetting the panel

Pressing Reset places the panel in the reset state. The panel should not be reset until the appropriate authority has determined that the hazard is no longer present.

When you reset the panel:

•All LEDs on the panel light for five seconds

•The trouble and power lights remain on for an additional 15 seconds

•When reset is complete, the buzzer sounds (then turns off) and the trouble LED turns off

In this state:

•All panel indicators are temporarily cleared

•All notification appliances are turned off

•All latched IDCs are cleared

•Alarm, trouble, and supervisory relays are returned to the inactive state

•Auxiliary power (if programmed as resettable) momentarily turns off

At the conclusion of the reset, if an IDC is in an off-normal state, the panel treats the event as a new event and activates the programmed responses. Pressing Disable for the active IDC within 30 seconds after the panel has reset turns off the NACs and disables the IDC.

If one or more IDCs are disabled prior to initiation of the reset, those IDCs remain disabled.

If signal silence inhibit or reset inhibit is enabled, system reset is inhibited during the silence or reset inhibit period.

To reset the panel:

1.Press the Reset button.

Silencing panel and FSRSI buzzers

Both the panel and the optional FSRSI module have buzzer silence buttons. Pressing the Panel Silence button silences the buzzer on the panel and on remote FSRSIs.

Pressing the FSRSI Silence button silences the buzzer on the FSRSI only.

To silence the panel buzzer:

1.Press the Panel Silence button on the panel.

2.Determine the type of condition that caused the buzzer to sound: alarm, trouble, supervisory, or monitor.

3.Determine the cause of the condition.

To silence an FSRSI buzzer:

1.Press the Silence button on the FSRSI.

2.Determine the type of condition that caused the buzzer to sound: alarm, trouble, supervisory, or monitor.

3.Determine the cause of the condition.

Silencing notification appliances

Pressing the Signal Silence & Drill button turns off all audible devices. Visual devices or NAC circuits may or may not turn off, depending on panel programming.

When you silence the signals, the Signal Silenced LED lights, indicating that the notification appliances are off. The panel does not indicate a trouble condition. If GENESIS, horn/strobe, or horn-only devices are used on NACs programmed for GENESIS operation, Signal Silence & Drill silences only the horns.

WARNING: The notification appliances should not be silenced until the building is fully evacuated and the cause of the alarm has been determined.

To silence notification appliances:

1.Press the Signal Silence & Drill button.

When the auto signal silence timer is programmed

When an event activates the notification appliances, the 20minute auto signal silence timer is activated. The notification appliances are activated for the 20-minute period. When the timer expires, any NACs that are programmed as silenceable are deactivated, and the Signal Silenced LED is illuminated.

If another event takes place that activates the previously silenced notification appliances, the Signal Silenced LED turns off. At any time, you can deactivate silenceable NACs by pressing Signal Silence & Drill.

Note: NACs activated by IDCs programmed as waterflow cannot be silenced until the activated devices are restored to normal. After the devices restore, the Signal Silence & Drill button or the auto signal silence timer can silence the NACs.

Resounding an alarm condition

Pressing the Signal Silence & Drill button again turns the audible devices back on if they were silenced.

To resound notification appliances:

1.Press the Signal Silence & Drill button.

Note: NACs resound automatically if a new alarm (from another IDC) is received.

1.4	FireShield Technical Reference Manual

Disabling an IDC

Pressing an IDC Disable button prevents the panel from responding to any status change from that IDC. When you disable an IDC:

•The common Disable LED double-flashes

•The IDC Trouble LED double-flashes

•The common Trouble LED lights and the panel goes into a trouble state

•The common trouble relay changes state

Resetting the panel has no effect on a disabled IDC, but removing all power from the panel clears the disable and enables the IDC.

Note: During an alarm condition, all flashing LEDs go steady.

To disable an IDC:

1.Press the Disable button for the IDC that you want to disable.

Disabling a NAC

When you disable an NAC:

•The common Disable LED double-flashes

•The NAC Trouble LED double-flashes

•The common Trouble LED lights and the panel goes into a trouble state

•The common trouble relay changes state

Resetting the panel has no effect on a disabled NAC, but removing all power from the panel clears the disable and enables the NAC.

To disable a NAC:

1.Press the Disable button for the NAC that you want to disable.

Re-enabling an IDC or NAC

You can re-enable a disabled IDC or NAC. When you reenable an IDC or NAC:

•The common Disable LED turns off

•The IDC or NAC trouble LED turns off

•The common Trouble LED turns off and the panel returns to normal

•The IDC or NAC LEDs are updated to show current status (e.g. if the IDC or NAC is in trouble, the Trouble LED lights). After enabling an IDC, alarms from that IDC are inhibited for 30 seconds. During this time the IDC can be disabled to avoid an unwanted alarm.

System overview and operation

To re-enable an IDC or NAC:

1.Press the Disable button for the IDC or NAC you want to re-enable.

Using the drill command

You can use the drill command to activate all of the notification appliance circuits. Pressing Drill activates all audibles and visuals according to the panel programming, but does not activate the Alarm relay. The FSDACT can be programmed to transmit a drill condition, but it will never report the drill as an alarm. Drill will not operate with an active alarm or supervisory event at the panel.

To perform a fire drill:

1.Press and hold the Signal Silence & Drill button for one second.

2.To stop the drill, press and hold the Signal Silence & Drill button for one second.

Using the walk test command

A walk test lets you test IDC zones without having to create an actual alarm condition. You can conduct a walk test in silent or audible mode. In silent mode the audible devices (NACs) do not sound. Walk test will not operate with an active alarm or supervisory event at the panel.

Zones should be placed in walk test one at a time. This allows the balance of the system to remain in service.

In a walk test, the panel responds to the first signal it receives and ignores all others on that IDC until it clears that signal or the panel is reset. The input must be restored to the normal state before the next input is tested. When the input is restored, the panel automatically resets the circuit being tested. The automatic reset takes eight seconds. After the circuit is reset the next device can be tested.

The panel terminates the walk test if any of the following occur:

•The panel enters an alarm or supervisory state

•There are 30 minutes of inactivity on the zone being tested

•The panel is reset

•Walk Test is pressed

When you press Walk Test:

•The Walk Test LED flashes for an audible walk test and is steady for a silent walk test

•The panel enters a trouble state. There is no fire protection for the IDC in walk test. If an unselected IDC goes into alarm or trouble, all programmed outputs operate as programmed.

FireShield Technical Reference Manual

1.5

System overview and operation

The IDC you are testing behaves as follows:

•For alarm events, the appropriate panel, FSRSI, and FSRZI-A LEDs and buzzers are turned on

•In the audible test mode the notification appliances sound for a number of times equal to the zone number (e.g. three rings for zone three)

•After activation, the panel resets the IDC. This will take eight seconds. During the reset period, the IDC trouble LED fast-flashes. If the device being tested is not restored, the IDC does not reset. If the device is restored (no alarm is present) the panel is ready to test another device or detector.

•If auxiliary power is programmed as resettable, the auxiliary power is deactivated while the zone is reset

•Input zones programmed as waterflow with retard require 10 to 15 seconds of activation to initiate the test signals

•For trouble events, the appropriate LEDs and the buzzers are turned on. In the audible (NAC) test mode a onesecond pulse sounds on the audible devices. After sounding, the zone resets in preparation for continued testing.

•For ground fault events, the appropriate LEDs and the buzzers are turned on. In the audible (NAC) test mode a one-second pulse sounds on the audible devices. After sounding, the zone resets in preparation for continued testing.

To conduct an audible walk test:

1.Press the Walk Test button once.

2.Press the Disable button for the IDC you want to test.

3.Conduct your walk test for the IDC.

4.When you are finished testing an IDC, press the Disable button to turn off the walk test for that IDC.

5.Select another IDC to walk test (steps 2 through 4) or exit from the walk test by pressing the Walk Test button.

To conduct a silent walk test:

1.Press the Walk Test button two times.

2.Press the Disable button for the IDC you want to test.

3.Conduct your walk test for the IDC.

4.When you are finished testing an IDC, press the Disable button to turn off the walk test for that IDC.

Installing the Remote Relay Module

The Remote Relay Module (FSRRM) provides five dry contact relay outputs. The outputs can be wired as both normally open and normally closed. The outputs can be set to common or zone notifications (see the “Command options” table below). Installing the appropriate jumper (JP3 - JP5) configures the dry contact relay output options.

Five diagnostic LEDs provide visual indication of the status of each relay. If the LED is lit, the relay is energized. If the LED is off, the relay is de-energized. If configured for common operation the trouble relay and the power relay will be energized when the system is normal.

Note: You must run the Find Annunciators program option after adding or removing a remote annunciator. The remote annunciators will not operate properly until the panel detects them. For more information see Chapter 3 “Programming.”

Installing the FSDACT

The FSDACT is a digital alarm communicator transmitter (DACT) that transmits panel events to a compatible digital alarm communicator receiver (DACR). Messages are transmitted over standard loop-start telephone lines. The dialer is capable of split reporting to two different account and telephone numbers.

In addition to the DACT functions, this module includes:

•An alphanumeric LCD to display system messages and programming prompts

•An event history log of panel and DACT events, viewable through compatible software

•A modem for uploading and downloading panel configuration, history, and current status to a PC running compatible software

Note: The FSDACT modem is only rated for 2400 baud communication. Some PC modems may not be compatible with this baud rate.

The FSDACT can be programmed to operate as a single or dual line DACT/Modem/LCD display, a Modem/LCD display, or an LCD display only. For the FSDACT to be NFPA 72 CS compliant, the following is required:

1.The factory installed warning label must be removed from the FSDACT's line two phone jack.

2.A second phone line, independent of that used for line one must be connected to phone jack two.

3.The FSDACT must be programmed for dual line operation.

4.The FSDACT must be programmed for a daily transmission test frequency.

UL 864 compliance requires the dual line setting.

The FSDACT can be configured for attended or unattended downloading. JP1 is a wire loop (located near the top of the FSDACT) that controls which download method is used.

Leaving the JP1 wire loop intact configures the FSDACT for attended downloading. The panel will not allow changes to the panel or dialer configuration unless the program jumper is inserted. It will allow changes to receiver information (account code, telephone numbers, etc.). UL requires the red wire loop to be intact for all remote station systems.

Cutting the JP1 wire loop configures the FSDACT for unattended downloading. This means that the program jumper need not be inserted to accept any panel or dialer configuration changes.

NFPA 72 1999 edition states in 7-1.6.2.1 that reacceptance testing shall be performed after any change to site-specific software.

"All components, circuits, systems operations, or site-specific software functions known to be affected by the change or identified by a means that indicates the system operational

changes shall be 100 percent tested. In addition, 10 percent of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, also shall be tested, and correct system operation shall be verified. A revised record of completion in accordance with 1-6.2.1 shall be prepared to reflect any changes.”

For additional download security, the FSDACT can be programmed to perform a call back function. This call back option applies whether the FSDACT is configured for attended or unattended downloading.
