Installation Precautions

Adherence to the following will aid in
problem-free installation with long-term
reliability:

WARNING - Several different sources of power
can be connected to the fire alarm control
panel. Disconnect all sources of power before

servicing. Control unit and associated equipment
may be damaged by removing and/or inserting
cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the
unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service,
or operate this unit until manuals are read and
understood.

Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all
initiating and indicating device loops. Most devices
cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R. drop from the
specified device voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices, this
system may operate erratically or can be damaged
when subjected to lightning induced transients.
Although no system is completely immune from
lightning transients and interference, proper
grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or
outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to
an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning
strikes. Consult with the Technical Services
Department if any problems are anticipated or
encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to
removing or inserting circuit boards. Failure to do
so can damage circuits.

Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any
drilling, filing, reaming, or punching of the
enclosure. When possible, make all cable entries
from the sides or rear. Before making
modifications, verify that they will not interfere with
battery, transformer, or printed circuit board
location.

Do not over tighten screw terminals. Over
tightening may damage threads, resulting in
reduced terminal contact pressure and difficulty
with screw terminal removal.

This system contains static-sensitive
components. Always ground yourself with a

proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so
that static charges are removed from the body.
Use static suppressive packaging to protect
electronic assemblies removed from the unit.

Follow the instructions in the installation,
operating, and programming manuals. These

instructions must be followed to avoid damage to
the control panel and associated equipment.
FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper
installation.

This equipment must be correctly programmed
and installed to suit the specific application.

Please ensure correct operational parameters are
set prior to commissioning. If further details on
programming options are required, please consult
the programming manual or contact our helpful
technical support personnel.

EMC WARNING:

This equipment may radiate radio frequency energy. It may also be affected by radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and operated in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, may cause interference to radio
communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the Class A radiated and conducted EMI
requirements of AS/NZ 3548:1995 (including Amendments 1 & 2) as well as the EMI susceptibility
requirements of Clause C3.5 in AS4428.0:1997.

Radio communication devices should not be used in the vicinity of fire panels or associated ancillary devices
and systems.

OVERVIEW

IFS-2600 Fire Indicator Panel (FIP) is designed to provide simplicity to the end user. The FIP uses both a liquid crystal
display and conventional LED displays for fast and accurate display of system status and changing events.

A custom designed membrane keypad is used together with the liquid crystal display and LED indicators to provide fast,
efficient and simple modes of operation. The keypad also provides the required flexibility for the programming of the
many user configurable options of this FIP. The FIP can be configured on-site without the need of expensive
programmers or components.

A serial printer can also be connected if required. The printer can be used to output programming information for ease of
modification, for safekeeping and to assist in the commissioning of the installation.

IFS-2600 uses serial chain mimic outputs which significantly saves time and costs of cabling to mimic panels.

A door holder power supply (using optional transformer) is incorporated into the system for the release of smoke and fire
doors on alarm.

IFS-2600 is available in a standard 8-zone configuration and can be expandable to its fully expanded state as required.
The IFS-2600 in its fully expanded state can;

• Monitor 64 detection zones

• Control 64 optional "mapped" relay outputs

• Output to a serial printer

• Output serially to a mimic panel

• Control to door holders

• Interface as required to any Australian Fire Brigade

IFS-2600 has been designed to be functional, flexible and reliable whilst maintaining a user-friendly interface.

CAUTION

IFS-2600 FIP has been tested and approved to AS4428.1 and meets the requirements of AS1670 and AS1668 Parts 1 &

2.

However, the equipment must be correctly programmed and installed to suit the specific application. Please ensure
correct operational parameters are set prior to commissioning. If further details on programming options are required,
please consult the programming manual or contact our helpful technical support personnel.

POWER SUPPLY RATINGS AND SETTINGS

INTERNAL 24 VDC (nom) 3.0A MAIN POWER SUPPLY

This supply's primary function is to power panel logic and all external operations of the FIP, i.e.: detection
circuits, ancillary circuits, etc. This supply meets the requirements of AS4428.5.

AC Input 30 VAC +10% - 15%
Output Current 3.0 AMPS
Output Voltage 26.5 VDC
Current Limit 3.0 AMPS
Output Ripple 50 mV

INTERNAL 27.3V DC 1.5A BATTERY CHARGER

Its primary function is to charge the batteries. This supply meets the requirements of AS4428.5.

AC Input 30 VAC +10% -15%
Output Current 1.5 AMPS
Output Voltage 27.3 VDC
Current Limit 1.5 AMPS
Output Ripple 200 mV

Important Note:

After a power failure, the battery will only reconnect to the charger if the battery voltage is above approximately
20V +/- 2V.

A battery fault will be generated in the event that the battery does not automatically reconnect. This is to ensure
that a faulty or dead flat battery (due to an extended power failure) does not bring the entire system down.

In order to reconnect a flat battery, it is necessary to disconnect the battery from the panel and charge it
externally. The battery should be thoroughly tested before returning it to service.

In the event that an external charger is not available, the battery may be trickle charged above 22V via a 30
ohm, 5W resistor connected between the 24v Aux Output and the battery positive terminal. A 1N4004 Diode
(Notifier part number #286) or similar should also be fitted in series with the resistor to stop the battery from
pulling down the main panel voltage. Trickle charging the battery by this method may take several hours to
bring it up to the minimum level.

The battery can then be reconnected to the panel for charging via the internal battery charger. It is important
that the voltage on the battery be monitored to ensure that it is charging. The battery should then be left for 24
hours and then fully tested to ensure that no damage has occurred due to the deep discharge.

Internal 5VDC 2A Power Supply

This supply's primary function is to power all internal operations of the FIP, i.e.: Microprocessor, liquid crystal
display, LED's keypad etc.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

GENERAL

The IFS-2600 in its most basic form comprises of three boards, the main control board, the main termination
board and the power supply board.

The main control board contains the Microprocessor, EPROM, RAM and E2ROM. The main control board also
has the liquid crystal display and keypad attached. All of the "delicate" electronics have been placed on this
board. The main control board complete with the inner door is easily removed during installation to avoid
damage and allow greater access to the field terminals.

The main termination board contains the one power supply for 5V logic, and connectors for a Power Supply
and Battery Charger daughter board, the first eight zones, all common outputs and the printer interface. All
charger settings, fuses etc are located on this board. The Power Supply and Battery Charger board contains
two switch mode regulators, 26.5V for the panel power, 27.3V for the battery charger.

Up to seven (7) zone expansion boards can be added to the system to increase its detection capability. These
boards contain the same electronics as on the main termination board for zone scanning. Addressing is by a
jumper that selects which group of eight zones the board refers to.

Up to four (4) zone indicator boards can also be added. These boards will display the status of the zone
expansion boards fitted.

Up to eight (8) relay boards can be added. These boards contain 8 change-over relay contacts, each rated at
1 amp. These boards require no addressing, as they work on a serial data chain. Output 1 is the closest
output to the main board.

NOTE This product utilises state of the art components and materials and therefore boards must be returned

to our factory for proper troubleshooting, repair and retesting. Field component level repairs are not
recommended and would void all warranties on the product.

TRANSIENT SUPPRESSION

AZF DESCRIPTION

The AZF's on the IFS-2600 are monitored and scanned by custom thick film hybrids. These hybrid IC's
significantly reduce the possibility of false alarms and improve product efficiency and reliability.

The total Alarm Zone loop resistance is the sum of the end of line resistor (EOLR 4K7) plus all the parallel
connected detector loads.

AZF SUPERVISORY CURRENT

The supervisory current flows through the external terminal AZF+, through the field cable and to the end of line
resistor (EOLR), returning to the panel at AZF- terminal. Parallel connected, across the 2-wire pair field cable,
are a number of the previously listed detectors. During the quiescent state there is essentially an open circuit
across the + and - terminals of the detector base. The maximum number of detectors that can be installed on
each AZF is dependant on the type of detector and is listed in the IFS-2600 ActivFire®listing.

In an alarm state, a 560-ohm resistor is connected across the detector base causing additional loop current to
flow. This is sensed by the AZF to produce an alarm output. Removal of the E.O.L. resistor (in a non alarm
state) or the interruption of the supervisory current will produce a fault signal in the AZF.

As described above, the level of current is used to define the status of the alarm zone: -

I = 3.5 mA and below FAULT
I = 4.0 - 5.0mA at 24V QUIESCENT
I = 16 mA to 40 mA (current limited) ALARM

The zone current is used by the hybrid IC to determine the condition of the zone as above. This information is
then transferred to the microprocessor for processing.

ZONE OVERLOAD SELF RESET

If a zone is overloaded by an accidental short to earth on an AZF circuit, the zone will automatically shut down
and produce a fault. Once this happens the panel will automatically recheck the zone every 60 seconds and
once the overload is removed, restore power and the fault will clear.

PRINTER OUTPUT

The printer port is designed to be used during testing and commissioning of the panel. The serial printer will
report alarms and faults together with the date and time of the event. The printer can also be used during
“walk test” mode to produce a history of the test and can also be used to print current programming
configuration.

A DB9 plug male is provided at the top of the main termination board. This communication port will
communicate with an IBM compatible serial printer (ASCII printer) with the following settings.

Baud Rate 1200 bps
Data Bits 8
Stop Bits 1
Parity None
Handshaking DTR

CABLE CONNECTION

Cabling to the printer requires a 4-core telephone style cable with a maximum length of 10 metres. A DB9
socket is required at the panel end. The printer end is dependent on the type of printer used but is usually a
male DB25. Connection is as follows. A 5-core cable can be used for both comms and printer functions

2 RX (only for programming) 2 3
3 TX 3 2
5 GND 7 5
7 RTS ( do not use) (5) (8)
8 CTS ( only for printer) 4 7

PROGRAMMING BY COMPUTER

Programming of the zones, relays, global functions and time can by set with the DOS based program
“2600/SW” using the printer port. (Cannot be used with Windows XP)
After the cable is installed, the program can be run and the menu will prompt for the available functions.

CONFIGURATION JUMPERS

IFS2004 - JP3 DEFAULT

Holding a short across these pins for 5 seconds during start-up causes the panel to reset to standard
factory defaults. The panel will give 4 beeps after reset, to acknowledge default on start-up.

IFS2004 - JP4 PROGRAM DISABLE

When fitted, jumper between these pins to inhibit program changes.

IFS2004 - JP5 CPU RESET

With panel operating, a momentary short across these pins will cause a CPU restart.

IFS2005 – JP2 DOOR HOLDER BYPASS

If zoned door holder outputs are required and is to be done external to the main termination board,
then the main door holder release needs to be disabled. Fitting a link across JP2 on IFS2005 PCB
does this.

Note: Door holder output is only enabled if optional door holder transformer is fitted. SW1 must be
linked on PCB2004 CPU board prior to Version 6 Firmware.

IFS2006 – JP1 EXTERNAL PS MONITORING

When using external power supply, JP1 link on IFS2006E must be fitted to enable external PSU
monitoring.

IFS804 - JP1-7 ZONE BOARD ADDRESSING

Jumper JP1 to JP7 on zone expansion board IFS-804 selects the addressing for the zones.
Place jumper in link position for the appropriate 8 zones to which the expansion board applies.
