Description

The FireFinder XLSV is a digital Emergency Voice Alarm
and Communication System designed to be used as a part
of the Siemens Fire Safety FireFinder XLS Life Safety
System. Its operation is fully integrated with the
FireFinder XLS and programmed via a Windows laptop
computer.

The system will respond rapidly to either automatic or
manual commands from system logic or switch modules
located on the command console(s). Digital Audio signals
such as Evacuation 1, Evacuation 2, Alert 1, Alert 2, or page
can be routed to any number of speaker circuits. A wide
selection of microcontroller controlled tones with backup
are available. One or more speaker and strobe circuits can
be mapped to switches though the Zeus Windows based
programming software. Switches can be used to manually
activate or deactivate any zone. Through the use of multi­color LEDs a clear indication is provided showing which
zones are active and linked to which audio channel.

The Live Voice Module (LVM) includes a dynamic micro­phone with push-to-talk switch and ready-to-page indicator
light along with a small local speaker and volume control
for monitoring audio signals. An optional pre-announce
tone is also available.

In addition, the XLSV meets current NFPA code require­ments by providing another two digital audio channels
available for background music and convenience paging.

As an option, the system can provide a Firefighter's
Telephone that can provide both an "acknowledge" tone and
a busy signal. Clear indication is provided at the command
console as to which telephone zones are active. The
Firefighter's Master Telephone provides a red master
telephone with retractable coil cord and push-to-talk button.

Remote paging can be provided from any telephone zone
(Warden's Page) with selection at the command console.
In addition, specific telephone zones can be pre-selected
as automatic page zones on a selective or All Call basis.

Speaker zones are selectable for either 25 Volt or 70.7 Volt
operation and either Style Y (Class B) or Style Z (Class A)
wiring configuration. Strobe circuits may also be wired as
Style Y or Style Z.

Speaker, Strobe and Firefighter's Telephone zones can be
provided as either modules or plug-in type cards, installed
in the main enclosure or remote voice system transpon­ders. The cards are plugged into the standard XLS CC-5/
CC-2 card cages. The XLS Control Point Module HCP can
also be used to provide a remote telephone zone, speaker
zone or notification appliance circuit.

LCM-8

LCM-8 LED Control Module

The LCM-8 is an FireFinder XLS option module which
provides LED annunciation of system activity. Each LCM­8 module contains eight groups of 2 LED's, each of which
can be assigned to desired outputs using the ZEUS
programming software. Eight LED's are dual color capable
of being lighted either RED or GREEN flashing or steady.
The remaining LED's are AMBER flashing or steady. A
space is provided for labeling of LED functions. The label
slides behind a clear protective membrane. The LCM-8
dimensions are identical to the SCM-8 and is mounted on
the same hinged panel as a part of the FireFinder XLS
Command Console enclosure.

SCM-8

SCM-8 Switch Control Module

The SCM-8 is a FireFinder XLS option module which
provides manual control of the Emergency Voice Evacua­tion System or manual fire system control. Each SCM-8
module provides eight momentary pushbutton switches
and 16 LED's to indicate their status. Each switch is
assigned two LED's and a label to indicate the switch's
programmed usage. The label slides behind a clear
protective membrane. One of the LED's assigned to each
switch is a dual color LED used to indicate what type of
signal is active.

Each SCM-8 and each switch is fully programmable and
may be used to control speaker circuits, and a wide range
of general system functions such as All Call, All Evac,
Warden's Page, Speaker, etc. Any number of circuits may
be grouped and controlled by a single switch. Switch
usage and zone groupings are assigned using the ZEUS
system programming software.The SCM-8s are mounted
on a hinged panel as a partof the FireFinder XLS Command
Console enclosure.

FCM-6

FCM-6 Fan, Motor, dampers Control Module

The FCM-6 is an FireFinder XLS command console option
module that provides manual control of building HVAC
system fans, motors, and dampers. EachFCM-6 module
provides (6) sets of (3) push button switches for manual
system control. Each switch has 3 associated LEDs to
indicate Fan/Damper/Motor status: OFF (Red LED), ON
(Green LED), TROUBLE(Yellow LED).
