position).

Performance and Connecting of the 4-Sounder Expander

There is a correspondence between the zone numbers and the sounders - ZONE 1 of
the 4-zone expander corresponds to SOUNDER 1 of the 4-sounder expander, ZONE
2 to SOUNDER 2, and so on. In case of re in ZONE 1, SOUNDER 1 will operate
continuously and Sounders 2 ÷ 4 of the expander will be pulse activated - 2 sec. sound/

2 sec. silent.

The method of adding of 4-sounder expander is analogical to that of adding a 4-zone
expander module, see Figure 14. Note: At Step 3 mount the resistors R-10K from the
supplied spare parts kit (position 16, page 31) to the sounder expander terminals.

ATTENTION: Do not connect or disconnect the expander when the power
is on! Before connecting or disconnecting the expander you SHOULD
check whether the main and the stand-by power supplies are OFF!

Note: Only a module of the same type can be added to the 4-sounder

expander. For the proper performance of the re alarm panel observe

the connection sequence presented in Figure 16a. In case of improper
connection (Figure 16b), an error signal will be generated when the
power supply is switched on - the LEDs of the zones connected after the
4-sounder expander will begin to blink and the GENERAL FAULT LED
remains permanently lit.

4. CONNECTING

!

4.1 Relay Module MR8

MR8 is a supplementary module which is located outside the MAG816 Alarm Panel box.
The MR8 contains 8 changeover contact relays.
When using all 16 zones, the MAG816 needs two relay modules.
The technical specications of the MR8 module relays are described in item 2.2.

Conguring the MR8 outputs

Should zones numbered 1 to 8 be used, a jumper is set at outputs 1÷8 of the MR8
mother board; should the jumper be set at outputs 9÷16, zones numbered 9 to 16 will

be used - Figure 17.

The MR8 relay contact type (normally closed or normally open) is determined by
conguring the NO/NC outputs. Setting the jumper at the NO output will normally open
the contact; setting the jumper at the NC output will normally close the contact - Figure

17.

Special jumper J1 - when this jumper is set, the rst zone relay is activated by the
module relays after the button

upon an alarm event.

(see item 6.2) on the control panel is pressed

Performance of the MR8 Module Relays

The MR8 Relays are activated upon an alarm event (re) in the respective zone they are

connected to.

• If a sounder delay is set in the main control panel, this delay will also reect on the relay
activation of the rst alarm - it shall delay by the same duration.

• The relay activation delay is eliminated by pressing the
the sounders are immediately enabled.

• Once a re signal has been generated and there is a sounder delay set off, the following
MR8 relays will be activated immediately.

• The activation of the respective relay is immediately after the sounders are activated.
Where there is any delay, it shall apply only to the relay of the zone that rst entered the

alarm mode.

• The relay will restore its normal state only after the initial start-up of the control panel.

Pressing the

button will not restore the relay.

In order to operate together with the MR8, the MAG816 Fire Alarm Panel
must be in Master Panel mode - a jumper is set at the Master position.

The connecting between one Relay Module MR8 and Master Panel MAG816 is shown
on Figure 18.

The connecting between two Relay Modules MR8 and Master Panel MAG816 is shown

4.2 Repeater Panel

A second MAG816 can be connected to the MAG816 Fire Alarm panel as Slave. The
function of the Slave is to double the light and sound indication and the button control of
the rst panel at a distance up to 1000 m. For the purpose, to both of the panels have to
be assigned specic priorities: The rst re alarm panel shall be the system Master and
the second - Slave.

The Master panel is congured by setting a jumper on the Master position of the main
module, and the Slave - with a jumper on the Slave position (see Figure 10).

Figure 20 shows the connection between the Master and Slave MAG816 panels.

Connecting of Repeater Panel

When adding a repeater panel in the re system:

• Turn off the main and the stand-by power supplies.

• Connect the repeater to the rst MAG816 - see Figures 20, 21 and 22.

• Set a jumper on the Master position of the main panel - see Figures 10 and 20.

• Set a jumper on the Slave position of the second panel - see Figures 10 and 20.

• Turn on the main and the stand-by power supplies of the Slave panel.

• Turn on the main and the stand-by power supplies of the Master panel.

4.3 Class Change Mode

!

!

To use the class change function connect the terminals of a switch with normally open
contacts to the CC (Class Change) clamps of the main module terminal (Figure 10). The
working mode of the sounders will be:

- when the switch is pressed - one second sounder on, one second sounder off;

- when the switch is depressed - the sounder is off.

4.4 Connecting the Zone and Sounder Circuits

Verify the normal functioning of the panel before connecting circuits to zones and
sounders:

• Connect the battery to the power unit terminals - Figure 12.

• Check the availability and condition of the fuse, a 2A T-type, located in the clamp for
connecting the power unit to the main electric network.

• Turn on the main power supply.

In normal operation mode only the “POWER SUPPLY 230V” LED lights

up on the front panel of the re alarm station.

NOTE: In case other indicators are also lit and the internal buzzer has been activated:

• Disable the buzzer with the

• Check the mains fuse.

• Check the electrical connections within the station box.

• Check for any activated FAULTS LEDs of the main module, see Figure 10. Specify the
faults according to the Faults Indication Table on page 26.

button on the front panel.

• Press the

button (see item 6.2) on the front panel to reset the system.

Connecting the Zone Circuits

Up to 32 conventional re detectors and an unlimited number of manual call points can
be connected to each circuit. Figure 23 shows how to connect detectors within a zone.

Figure 23. Connecting of detectors
(D1÷N) and manual call points
(CP1÷N) to the zone circuit.

Attention: During DOUBLE ACTION mode of operation, where the
zone expander has NO jumper set for instant action of any zone on the
terminal, ONLY detectors can be connected to its circuit. If a jumper
has been set - detectors and call points.

Example: If there are call points connected in ZONE 1, for the system
to function properly there must be a jumper set at its zone expander at
z1 position, see also Figure 26.

• Shut down the mains supply and disconnect the terminals of the power unit to the
battery.

• One by one remove the EOL-modules from the 4-zone expander connecting clamps
and t them to the last detector of each of the circuits as observe the polarity - Figure

23.

• Connect each circuit to a separate zone on the terminal of the 4-zone expander.

• Connect the battery to the power source and apply mains power to the panel.

After powering up the panel should be in normal operation mode
and the “POWER SUPPLY 230V” LED lights up on the front panel of
MAG816.

NOTE: If the GENERAL FAULT LED lights up and a fault indicator has been activated

for one or more zones on the front panel, the problem lies with the connection of the
circuits in these zones. Check the polarity of the connection of the devices and whether
there is a detector removed from its base.

• Activate one or more detectors to each connected zone to verify that re signals are
generated and also that the panel operates correctly.

Connecting of FAULT and FIRE Relays

The relays with changeover contacts are intended for control of low voltage devices.

Attention: No mains power should be supplied to the clamps of the
FAULT and FIRE relays.
After the connection is established, test each of the circuits for external
device control.

Connecting of Sounder Circuits

Figure 24 shows how to connect the sounders. One R=10K resistor is connected to the
end of each circuit as shown in the diagram.

Figure 24. Connecting of sounders to SND1÷SND4 outputs of the control module

and the output of the 4-sounder expander.

18 MAG816 - Installation and Operation Manual

In order to connect the sounder circuits:

!

• Shut down the mains supply and disconnect the terminals of the power unit to the
battery.

• One by one remove the resistors (R=10K) from the sounder connecting clamps
(SND1÷SND4) on the main module and connect them in parallel to the last sounder of
each of the circuits. Connecting the sounders to outputs of 4-sounder expander is done

in an analogical manner.

• Connect the sounder circuits to the SND1÷SND4 clamps on the main module and/or on
the 4-sounder expander by observing the polarity.

• Connect the battery to the power unit and apply the main power supply.

After powering up the panel should be in normal operation mode and the
“Power Supply 230V” LED lights up on the front panel of MAG816.

NOTE: If the GENERAL FAULT LED lights up on the front panel together with any of

the FAULTS LEDs of the main module and/or the 4-sounder expander - SND1÷SND4,
perhaps there is a problem in the connection. Check the polarity of the connection to
the terminal of the main module of the panel, as well as the connection to the 4-sounder
expander.

5. SYSTEM PROGRAMMING

5.1 Sounder Delay

This is an option for setting a delay on the Sounders activation when the panel enters
“Fire” mode. The indication on the front panel - the FIRE LEDs, however, will light up
immediately in case of a re event, regardless of whether a delay has been set to enable
the sounders. After the programmed delay period expires, during which the user can
possibly nd out the cause for the alarm event, the panel enables the sounders. The

sounders can be silenced by pressing the

In case of a false re alarm the user must press the
working mode.

In order to program MAG816 for Sounder Delay over an interval between 1 and 10

minutes:

• Examine the Table of Instructions for programming sounder delay, shown on

Figure 10.

• Depending on the selected time delay, set a jumper at the TIME DELAY

terminals, marked in Figure 10 as 1, 2, 3, and 4.

• Press

Example: In order to program sounder delay of 3 minutes, set jumpers on positions 1

and 2.

MAG816 - Installation and Operation Manual 19

5.2 Double Action Mode

Time Time

The purpose of introducing a DOUBLE Action mode is to avoid false alarms. Where
MAG816 has been programmed to function in this mode, in the case of a re signal,
the panel does not alarm at once but waits for the alarm event to be repeated within a
specic time interval - Figure 25. The time interval has been set by default and cannot

be adjusted. For MAG816 it is 3 minutes.

In order to program the re alarm panel for Double Action mode:

• Set a jumper on the DOUBLE terminal of the main module - Figure 10.

• Press

to introduce changes.

Figure 25.

EXAMPLE 1: In this case the re panel will not activate the sounders and the signalization

on the front panel because during time interval 2 no second alarm signal is generated.
EXAMPLE 2: In this case the re panel will activate the sounders and the signalization
on the front panel because during time interval 2, two alarm signals are generated.

5.3 Instant Action Mode

Where in the armed site there are zones, which need the sounders and the light
indicators to be enabled instantaneously, the panel provides instant action working
mode. This mode can be programmed individually for every single zone, depending on
its designation. In instant action mode, in case of an alarm event occurring in the zone,
the sounders are immediately enabled, i.e. this mode is of priority by zones compared to

Double Action and Sounder Delay modes.

In DOUBLE action mode of operation, where there is NO jumper on instant action

terminals of the zone expander, ONLY detectors can be connected to each zone circuit,
and if a jumper has been set - that allows connecting both detectors and call points.

In order to program Instant Action mode for a selected zone:

• Set a jumper on the terminal that corresponds to the number of the zone - Figure 13.

• Press

to introduce changes.

Example: If there are call points connected in ZONE 1, for the system to function properly
there must be a jumper at its zone expander at z1 position.

20 MAG816 - Installation and Operation Manual

Figure 26. Example for Instant Action Mode Programming.

5.4 Master Panel Mode

When connecting two MAG816 panels in a common system, the rst must be pro­grammed as Master and the second as Slave.

In order to program the Master Panel mode:

• Set a jumper on the Master position of the main module - Figure 10.

• Press

The connection between the Master Panel and the MR8 module relays is described in
item 4.1, and the connection between the Master Panel and the Slave - in item 4.2.

to introduce changes.

5.5 Repeater Panel Mode

In order to program the Repeater Panel mode:

• Set a jumper on the Slave position of the main panel module - Figure 10.

• Press

The connection between the Master Panel and the Slave is described in item 4.2.

to introduce changes.

5.6 Single Panel Mode

No jumper is set on the Master or Slave position in Single Panel Mode of the MAG816.

In order to program the Single Panel mode:

• Check whether there are jumpers set on the Master or Slave position. Remove them
if any.

• Press

to introduce changes.

6. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

6.1 Initial Start-Up of MAG816

The panel is enabled by supplying main and stand-by power supply. An initial start-up
procedure will begin to execute, which runs as follows:

1. For about 2 seconds all LEDs will light up; it is possible for a sound signal to be
activated.

2. All LEDs light up for 1 second - on the main panel (except uPFault) and for the zone
or sounder expanders (the dichromatic LEDs of the zone/ sounder expanders light up in
orange). The sound signalisation is activated.

3. For about 5 seconds the following LEDs light up:

• On the main module - all except uPFault;

• On the 4-zone expanders - the LEDs of zones programmed in Instant
Action mode (i.e. with a set jumper) light up in orange, and all the rest - in
red;

• On the 4-sounder expanders - the Fault LED (SND1 - SND4).

4. The following LEDs light up for 1 second:

• On the main panel - all except uPFault and Fire;

• On the 4-zone expanders - all LEDs are lit off;

• On the 4-sounder expanders - the Fault LED (SND1 - SND4).
At the end of the initial start-up procedure only the POWER SUPPLY 230V LED lights

on. All other LEDs have to be lit off.
The Fire Alarm panel is in Normal Operating mode.
