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

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.

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.

IFS-2600 Installation & Programming ManualPage 11
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
The IFS-2600's superior transient protection comprises of Dual Transorb input traps, inductive paths on
incoming PCB tracks, circuit board planes and metal oxide varistors on outputs. These devices are all selfresetting.

Note:
1:Each installation would require individual battery calculations to be performed for load capacity and
power supply capacity.
2:Each IFS-717 relay board, can add 370 mA (in alarm and quiescent) current per board.
P/N 10069 ECN08-0066
Page 12IFS-2600 Installation & Programming Manual
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 belowFAULT
I = 4.0 - 5.0mA at 24VQUIESCENT
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.
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.

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

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.

SUGGESTED ALARM PROCEDURE
The following is a suggested alarm procedure for use by building fire officers or duty wardens. The fire
indicator panel is designed for use by qualified fire fighters and it is strongly recommended that the fire panel
not be operated in an emergency situation by anyone other than suitably qualified fire fighters.
Do not open fire indicator panel door or press any buttons until fire officers arrives.
Determine location of the fire by inspecting the label beside any lit red zone alarm LEDs on the panel.
Visually inspect area at a safe distance for actual fire or false alarm.
Notify fire-monitoring station of either result.
Perform evacuation and extinguishing operations as required.
IF a FIRE, direct fire fighters to the fire indicator panel and cause of alarm as they arrive.
IF a FALSE ALARM, advise maintenance technicians to determine and rectify cause.
Record all events in logbook.
NOTE A suitably qualified fire officer should perform the above procedure. These are suggested procedures
only, and if specific fire procedures are available or issued, they MUST prevail.
OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS
The functions of the IFS-2600 are divided into three (3) categories
Fire Fighter Functions are those specifically used by the Fire Brigade on attendance.Following is an
explanation of their operation and the keystrokes required to perform the function required. These keys are
located at the top of the keypad marked FIREFIGHTER’S FACILITY and bordered in red.
ACKNOWLEDGE
The purpose of the internal buzzer is to alert persons of a new event on the panel, and a new potential fire
danger. Once the fire's location has been determined, the fire-fighter may wish to silence the internal buzzer
without having to totally reset the alarm.
When the buzzer is operating, pressing the "ACK" key once will silence it, however the External Alarm Bell will
continue to sound. If a subsequent alarm arises, the buzzer will be reactivated and a second ACK operation
will be required to silence it.
When an alarm is acknowledged, the Alarm LED will stop flashing and light continuously.
ACK
RESET
The reset function momentarily disconnects power, and resets all alarm parameters for the zone(s) that have
been acknowledged. This returns the zone back to its "normal" state. The reset key only operates on zones
with acknowledged alarms.
ISOLATE
The isolate function prevents the transmission of alarms or faults from the zones to the master alarm facility.
The isolate key only operates on zones with acknowledged alarms.

EXT BELL
BELL ISOLATE
Depressing the "EXT BELL ISOLATE" key will isolate the bells. The "Ext Bells Isolate" LED will illuminate and
the bells will not sound until the bells are de-isolated. Pressing "EXT BELL ISOLATE" a second time will deisolate the bell.
WARN SYS ISOLATE
ISOL

ISOL
Depressing the "WARN SYS ISOLATE" key will isolate the warning system. The "Warn Sys Isolate" LED will
illuminate and the warning system will not operate in the event of an alarm. Pressing "WARN SYS ISOLATE"
a second time will de-isolate the warning system.
GLOBAL FUNCTIONS
Global functions are those relating to the overall system and are not specific to particular zones. Following is
an explanation of their operation and the keystrokes required to perform the function.
BATTERY TESTBATT
TEST
This function tests the performance of the batteries fitted to the system. Pressing this button will initiate a
battery test as specified in AS4428. The test will temporarily disconnect the batteries from the panel and apply
load on the batteries for 15 seconds.
The result of the test will be displayed on the LED's. If the "Battery Fault" LED is on, only a successful battery
test will turn the LED off. The pressing of any key during the test period will abort the battery test and return
the system back to normal mode.
Battery test function is disabled when the panel is in alarm condition.
AUTO
AUTO TEST MODE
This function will perform a fixed automatic test procedure to the panel. This mode cannot be selected if any
zone(s) is in alarm. Auto test will perform the following test functions;
Turn on ALL LEDs for 0.5 seconds
Test LCD backlighting
Test panel memory (E2ROM & RAM)
Test LCD
Isolate all alarm zones
Fault test all alarm zones
Alarm test all alarm zones
Test buzzer
TEST
The pressing of any key during "AUTO TEST" will abort the tests and return the system back to normal mode
once the current test is complete.
NoteDuring "AUTO TEST", all zones are treated as zone type #1 (standard latching type with 2 second
delay). Once AUTO TEST has finished, all zones will be reset and returned back to their previously
configured types.
P/N 10069 ECN08-0066
IFS-2600 Installation & Programming ManualPage 23
WALK TEST MODE
WALK
TEST
This function will place the panel into "walk test" mode. Walk test mode is used for the on-site testing of
detector zones. This mode cannot be selected if any zone(s) is in alarm. Entry to walk test mode will be
acknowledged by three beeps and the LCD will display "WALK TEST MODE".
For the duration of walk test mode, all zones are changed to output configuration #2 (indicate and ring bells
only) and all zones are set to type #1 (standard latching, 2 second).
If the bells are not required to ring during walk test, simply press the "EXT BELL ISOLATE" key once. The EXT
BELL ISOLATE LED will illuminate to verify that the bells have been isolated.
Any alarm signal from detectors etc. will be received by the panel on its appropriate zone. The panel will beep
to acknowledge receipt of the alarm and indicate the alarm by illuminating the appropriate alarm LED for 4
seconds (the bells will also ring for a 3 second period unless previously isolated).
The zone and detector will then be automatically reset for 15 seconds
If the optional printer is connected, the alarm will be printed out as it is received. This can eliminate the need
for a second serviceman to record zone numbers during walk test and the printout can be retained for
verification at a later date.
Pressing any key will terminate the walk test mode and return the panel back to normal operation, restoring all
zone types and output configurations also ensuring that bell and ancillary outputs are de-isolated. The bells will
give three pulses of 1 second each to warn any testers still in the building that walk test mode has been
terminated.
Failure to receive any alarms or keystrokes within a 15 minutes period will result in the panel automatically
exiting walk test mode and returning back to normal as follows:
Bell outputs to be de-isolated.
Ancillary outputs to be de-isolated.
Bell will sound 3 times, each of 1-second duration.
Exit from walk test mode.
Zone types and output configurations restored
ACF ISOLATE
ACF
ISOL
Depressing the "ACF ISOLATE" key will isolate the ACF (Ancillary output) and the Door Holder Output. The
ACF isolated LED will illuminate and the output will not operate until de-isolated. Pressing "ACF ISOLATE" for
a second time will de-isolate the output.
If the ancillary output has already been tripped and is programmed as latching, isolating the ACF will not affect
the existing ancillary output. If the ACF is isolated prior to the alarm, it will prevent the ancillary output from
tripping. This does not apply to the Door Holder output.
ACF RESET
ACF
RESET
Resetting of the ancillary output (ACF) is only required if the ancillary output was programmed as latching.
The ancillary alarm will remain latched until manually reset. Pressing the "ACF RESET" button will extinguish
the 'ACF Activated' LED and de-energise the ancillary output. Pressing "ACF RESET" when the ACF is not
tripped will have no effect.

Page 24IFS-2600 Installation & Programming Manual
ZONE FUNCTIONS
Zone functions are those relating specifically to the detection zones. Following is an explanation of their
operation and the keystrokes required to perform the function required.
ALARM TEST
The alarm test function momentarily disconnects the detector lines of the zone(s) under test and simulates a
detector going into alarm, therefore testing the zone(s) alarm detection capability.
A resistive load equal to worst case alarm condition is placed on the zone for a period of 120 seconds and
then removed, if the zone being tested is not a latching type, the alarm will reset automatically once the load is
removed. Acknowledging and resetting the alarm will terminate an alarm test.
Once the zone has alarmed, all outputs are initiated (as programmed) similar to a real alarm.
The zone may be isolated prior to an alarm test if desired; this will prevent any outputs from operating.
‘#’ in the above key sequence is the zone number.
If only one zone is to be tested, use the appropriate number. Alternatively the "ALL" button can be used to
simultaneously test all zones.
To perform an alarm test:
1. Press the "ALARM TEST" button once; the buzzer will give 2 short beeps to indicate that alarm test mode
has been entered.
2. The LCD display will read "ALARM TEST MODE, ENTER ZONE No.".
ALARM TEST#ENT
3. Now enter the zone number ("#") 1-64 or “all”
4. Press "ENT"
If a correct entry is made, alarm testing on the zone commences immediately. However remember there is a 2
second transient delay on all zones. It will therefore take approximately 2 seconds before the zone registers an
alarm (this could be longer, depending on zone type).
A long beep will signify an incorrect entry and will revert back to normal operating mode. The "ALARM TEST"
button will need to be depressed again to re-enter alarm test mode.
P/N 10069 ECN08-0066
IFS-2600 Installation & Programming ManualPage 25
FAULT TEST
The fault test function momentarily disconnects the detection zone(s) under test and simulates the worst-case
condition for fault.
A resistor load equal to worst case fault is placed on the zone continuously for 5 seconds then the zone is
returned back to its normal condition.
If several zones are being tested consecutively and are being entered at a rate faster than the 5-second fault
timer, the fault timeout will occur 5 seconds after the last entry was completed.
Once the zone has registered a fault, all outputs relating to that zone are initiated similar to a real fault.
The zone may be isolated prior to a fault test if desired. This will prevent any outputs from operating.
‘#’ in the above key sequence is the zone number.
If only one zone is to be tested, use the appropriate zone number. Alternatively the "ALL" button can be used
to simultaneously test all zones.
To perform a fault test on a particular zone or on all zones:
1.Press the "FAULT TEST" button once.
The buzzer will give 2 short beeps to indicate that fault test mode has been entered.
FAULT TEST#ENTER
2.The LCD display will read "FAULT TEST MODE, ENTER ZONE No.".
3.Enter the zone number ("#") 1-64 or “all”.
4.Press "ENTER".
A long beep will signify an incorrect entry and the panel will revert back to normal operating mode. The
"FAULT TEST" button will need to be pressed again to re-enter fault test mode.
If a correct entry is made, fault testing on the zone commences and the fault LED will illuminate.
P/N 10069 ECN08-0066
Page 26IFS-2600 Installation & Programming Manual
ISOLATE
The isolate function prevents the transmission of alarms or faults from the zones, to the master alarm facility.
‘#’ in the above key sequence is the zone number.
If only one zone is to be isolated, use the appropriate zone number. Alternatively the "ALL" button can be used
to simultaneously isolate all zones.
To isolate a particular zone or all zones:
1.Press the "ISOLATE" button.
The buzzer will give 2 short beeps to indicate that isolate mode has been entered.
2.The LCD display will read "ALARM ISOL. MODE, ENTER ZONE No.".
3.Enter the zone number ("#")1-64 or “all”.
4.Press "ENTER".
A long beep will signify an incorrect entry and will revert back to normal operating mode. The "ISOLATE"
button will need to be depressed again to re-enter isolate mode.
If a correct entry is made, the zone is immediately isolated. If the zone is already in alarm, all of its alarm
outputs are isolated and indicators remain visible.
ISOLATE#ENTER
If the "ALL" function is performed, all zones will be isolated, regardless of their previous state. Performing the
"ALL" function for a second time will de-isolate all zones.
RESET
The reset function momentarily disconnects power, and resets all alarm parameters for the zone(s) being
reset. This returns the zone back to its "normal" state.
‘#’ in the above key sequence is the zone number.
If only one zone is to be reset, type in the zone number. Alternatively the "ALL" button can be used to
simultaneously reset all zones.
To perform a reset on a particular zone or on all zones:
1.Press the "RESET" button.
The buzzer will give 2 short beeps to indicate that reset mode has been entered.
2.The LCD display will read "ALARM RESET MODE, ENTER ZONE NO".
3.Enter the zone number ("#") 1-64 or “all”.
4.Press "ENTER".
RESET#ENTER
A long beep will signify an incorrect entry and will revert back to normal operating mode. The "RESET" button
will need to be depressed again to re-enter reset mode.
If a correct entry is made, resetting of the zone begins immediately. Any alarm indication will be removed
immediately; also resetting the zone(s) programmed outputs.

APPENDIX A
DESCRIPTION OF ALARM ZONE TYPES
Different zone types can be selected using the programming mode. Each zone can be selected as any one of
the following:
Once an alarm condition is received from the detector, the alarm zone will start a timer, if after 2 seconds the
detector is still activated the alarm zone will register an alarm condition. Indicators will illuminate and alarm
functions are initiated immediately, unless zone is set as AVF - refer Appendix C. The alarm zone will remain
in alarm until manually reset.
A reset is performed by interrupting the power to the detector for 0.5 seconds and returning the alarm zone
back to its quiescent state. If an alarm is still present in the detector area, the detector will re-activate and the
2-second timer will be re-initiated.
NON LATCHING TYPE
A temporary actuation device (e.g. Flow Switch) is usually connected to this type of alarm zone. Once a
signal has been received CONTINUOUSLY for 2 seconds or 20 seconds (dependant on programming) an
alarm will be registered causing the alarm LED to flash and alarm functions will be performed as programmed.
The alarm group will remain in alarm until the actuating device no longer reports a signal. When actuating
device signal is clear, the alarm is cleared, causing the zone to power down for 0.5 seconds and return back to
normal state.

TIME DELAY AZF
The time delay AZF zone can be preset to any one of 6 time delays in the initial setup. This type of zone is
used for AS1668 smoke detection zones. Zone timing etc is as per AS1668-1991.
Example:Timer #1 = 60 seconds
Once the first alarm is received, the alarm LED is turned on steady; this indicates "PARTIAL ALARM"
condition.
The detector is then reset (by removing its power for 0.5 seconds) and a timer is also started for 60 seconds
(TIMER#1). Another timer of 10 seconds (TIMER#2) is also started. The zone must respond again within this
10 seconds (TIMER#2) to register another alarm.
Failure to receive another alarm within this 10-second period will return the zone back to its normal state
immediately and extinguish the alarm LED.
If an alarm is received, the detector is reset again and TIMER#2 is also reset.
This monitoring continues until the 60-second timer (TIMER#1) has elapsed and then the NEXT alarm signal
will trip the zone into "FULL ALARM". This is the stage at which all mapped relays, bells etc. will operate.
When "FULL ALARM" condition is reached, a third timer (TIMER#3) of 70 seconds is started. This timer is
used to prevent "hunting" of air conditioning fans as specified in AS1668
TIMER#2 is kept operating and alarm signals are still to be received as per previous. Alarm signals are
required continually to keep the zone in "FULL ALARM". Each time another alarm is received Timer#3 is
restarted (i.e. 70 seconds)
Failure to comply with TIMER#2 will result in the zone being returned back to its NORMAL state once
TIMER#3 has elapsed.

APPENDIX C
ALARM VERIFICATION FACILITY (AVF)
Alarm verification (AVF) is a facility used to minimise false alarms.
AVF only applies to the zones programmed for the AVF function.
GLOBAL PROGRAMMABLE OPTIONS
AVF TIMEOUT
Disabled
2 Minutes
3 Minutes
4 Minutes
5 Minutes
Operation is as follows:
If a zone is programmed as AVF and it registers an alarm, no alarm functions are performed, if it is the first
AVF zone in alarm.
This zone and all other zones programmed as AVF zones are reset by shutting down power to their detectors
for 12 seconds, the power is then restored and the zones are re- enabled.
The alarm verification zones are now in "alert" mode. Any AVF zone going into alarm within the pre-selected
timeout period (2,3,4,5 minutes) will then cause an immediate alarm condition with all the programmed output
functions being initiated.
If no alarm is received within this period, the AVF zones are removed from the "alert" mode and returned to
normal. A further alarm will re-initiate the reset sequence etc.
Other zones are unaffected by the actions of AVF zones. They will all function as normal, regardless of AVF
zone status.
If the timeout period is disabled, the alarm will transmit instantly thus making the AVF non-functional.

ANCILLARY TRIP (ACF)
The ancillary trip is used for the shutting down of air conditioning systems etc. in the event of a fire.
GLOBAL PROGRAMMABLE OPTIONS
ANCILLARY TRIP (ACF)

LATCHINGNE
The ancillary trip can be programmed as latching or non- latching depending on the application.
It call also be programmed as normally energised or normally de-energised.
If a zone is programmed to operate the ancillary trip, an alarm condition will energise the ancillary trip until the
alarm is removed (if non-latching), or until the alarm is removed and the ACF is manually reset via the keypad
(latching).

APPENDIX E
RELAY OUTPUT MAPPING
A total of 64 expansion relays can be fitted to the IFS-2600. Each relay can be individually programmed to
mimic any of the following;
MAINS FAIL RELAY (NV) (NORMALLY ENERGISED)
ISOLATE RELAY
GENERAL ALARM RELAYS
BELL OUTPUT
DOOR SWITCH
RESET
DOOR HOLDER RELAY
FAULT/ISOLATE
When mapping to a normally energised relay, take care to ensure that connections take into account the
normally energised state of the relay.
Alternatively, the expansion relay(s) can be mapped to provide customised
logic to suit specific installations:
AND MAPPING
AND MAPPING allows the relay output to be programmed for a combination of up to 5 zones, and only
after they all go into alarm, will the relay operate.
AND MAPPING is useful for applications which have special shutdowns, multiple risk Gas Facilities
etc.
OR MAPPING
OR MAPPING works similarly. This function will cause the relay to operate if any one of up to five (5)
zones go into alarm, the relay will operate.
If the relay map options are set as "01" "02" "03" "00" "00", zones 1 or 2 or 3 in alarm will cause the
relay to operate.
OR MAPPING is useful for applications which have special shutdowns, zoned mimic outputs etc.
FAULT MAPPING
FAULT MAPPING works the same as OR mapping of alarm except it relates to the fault flag on each
zone instead of the alarm flag. This function will cause the relay to operate if any one of up to five (5)
zones go into fault.
If the relay map options are set as "01" "02" "03" "00" "00", then zones 1 or 2 or 3 going into fault, will
cause the relay to operate.
P/N 10069 ECN08-0066
Page 42IFS-2600 Installation & Programming Manual
FAULT/ISOLATE MAPPING
FAULT/ISOLATE MAPPING works the same as OR mapping of alarm except it relates to the
fault/isolate flag on each zone instead of the alarm flag. This function will cause the relay to operate if
any one of up to five (5) zones go into fault/put in isolate.
If the relay map options are set as "01" "02" "03" "00" "00", then zones 1 or 2 or 3 going into fault/(or
are manually put in isolate) will cause the relay to operate.
ISOLATE MAPPING
ISOLATE MAPPING works the same as or mapping of alarm except it relates to the isolate flag on
each zone instead of the alarm flag. This function will cause the relay to operate if any one of up to
five zones is put in isolate.
If the relay map options are set as "01" "02" "03" "00" "00", then zones 1 or 2 or 3, if put in isolate will
cause the relay to operate.

Used for the looping of the manual call point to a particular zone chosen for indication. This is achieved by
wiring from the zone, to the MCP, to the MCP loop then out to the field with the EOL across the last detector.
The MCP is the first device on the circuit and both fault and alarm conditions will be indicated.
DETECTION ZONES
Refer to list of compatible actuation devices for detectors which may be used. Any other hard contact device
may be used on these detection zones. An end of line resistor (E.O.L) of 4K7 ohms is required.
RELAY OUTPUTS
Relay outputs are voltage free change over contacts rated at 24VDC 1Amp (resistive). DO NOT attempt to
switch 240VAC with these relay contacts.
Note:RelayContacts Shown At Terminals (NC, C, NO) Are For The Relay In a De-energised State.
BELL OUTPUTS
This output is fused at 1 Amp and can drive up to 10 NIFS bells as specified. Output is also monitored and if
no bells are connected an EOL resistor (4K7 ohms) is required across the output terminals.
ACF OUTPUTS
This output is fused at 1 Amp. Output is also monitored and if no ancillary devices are connected, an EOL
resistor (4K7 ohms) is required across the output terminals.
WARNING SYSTEM
Connection for warning systems such as Occupant Warning System or electronic sounders.
DOOR HOLDER OUTPUTS
When a door holder transformer is fitted to the panel, this output becomes functional. Output is rated at 3
Amps maximum and can power up to 30 NIFS style door holders continuously. (Nom. 80mA each). Output is
separately fused at 3A (FS-1). Jumper JP3 if fitted will disable this output, i.e. 24V DC output all the time. The
Door Holder Output can be isolated using the ACF Isolate function.
AUXILIARY POWER & MIMIC POWER
A total auxiliary power draw of 500mA is available from the auxiliary power and mimic power terminals. This
output is fused at 1 Amp (FS-3) and is battery backed.
MAF ISOL & TRANSPONDER 0V
A 0V signal is switched back from the transponder test switch and is used for indication purposes at the FIP.
This will indicate as MAF ISOLATED and initiate a common fault. It can also used for an external device to
indicate a fault.
MIMIC DATA & CLOCK
These outputs together with the mimic power terminals are used to serially communicate with the mimic
panels when fitted. EOL resistor is not required on these lines.
NOTE: Firmware must be Version 6 or above for mimic operation
AC INPUT
Mains step down transformer output (30VAC) is connected at these terminals. DO NOT connect 240VAC to
these terminals.
