Fire Alarm & Emergency Communication System Limitations

While a life safety system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for life and property insurance!

An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control panel (FACP) with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.

An emergency communication system—typically made up of an automatic fire alarm system (as described above) and a life safety communication system that may include an autonomous control unit (ACU), local operating console (LOC), voice communication, and other various interoperable communication methods—can broadcast a mass notification message. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire or life safety event.

The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors be located throughout a protected premises following the recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association Standard 72 (NFPA 72), manufacturer's recommendations, State and local codes, and the recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge to all installing dealers. This document can be found at http:// www.systemsensor.com/appguides/. A study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (an agency of the United States government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or protection against fire. A fire alarm system may not provide timely or adequate warning, or simply may not function, for a variety of reasons:

Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level or floor of a building. A second-floor detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.

Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:

• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, chimneys, even wet or humid areas may inhibit particle or smoke flow.

• Smoke particles may become “cold,” stratify, and not reach the ceiling or upper walls where detectors are located.

• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air outlets, such as air conditioning vents.

• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching the detector.

The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such density levels are not created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will not go into alarm.

Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limitations. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which have little visible smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire.

Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning of fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially in bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions

(caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rate-of-rise feature of each detector should be tested at least once per year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.

IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a developing fire may damage the alarm system, compromising its ability to report a fire.

Audible warning devices such as bells, horns, strobes, speakers and displays may not alert people if these devices

are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors or are located on another floor of a building. Any warning device may fail to alert people with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol, or medication. Please note that:

• An emergency communication system may take priority over a fire alarm system in the event of a life safety emergency.

• Voice messaging systems must be designed to meet intelligibility requirements as defined by NFPA, local codes, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).

• Language and instructional requirements must be clearly disseminated on any local displays.

• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in people with conditions such as epilepsy.

• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a fire alarm signal, do not respond to or comprehend the meaning of the signal. Audible devices, such as horns and bells, can have different tonal patterns and frequencies. It is the property owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training exercises to make people aware of fire alarm signals and instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.

• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause temporary or permanent hearing loss.

A life safety system will not operate without any electrical power. If AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries only for a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly maintained and replaced regularly.

Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible with the control panel. It is essential to use only equipment listed for service with your control panel.

Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily disabled. For added protection against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are recommended.

The most common cause of life safety system malfunction is inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire life safety system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per the manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the requirements of NFPA 72 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt, or high air velocity require more frequent maintenance. A maintenance agreement should be arranged through the local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should be scheduled monthly or as required by National and/or local fire codes and should be performed by authorized professional life safety system installers only. Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.

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.

CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after Software Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product

must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or change in site-specific software. Reacceptance testing is required after any change, addition or deletion of system components, or after any modification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring. All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also be tested and proper system operation verified.

This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0-49º C/32-120º F and at a relative humidity 93% ± 2% RH (noncondensing) at 32°C ± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F). However, the useful life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a normal room temperature of 15-27º C/60-80º F.

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 tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. Overtightening 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.

For example, the keypad shortcut to the left shows how to enter the Read Status function with the control panel in normal operation.

1.3 Introduction to the Control Panel

The NFS2-640 is an intelligent, field-programmable Fire Alarm Control Panel. Field-programming the control panel lets you customize the fire alarm system by selecting and setting program options for intelligent/addressable detectors and modules, and Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs).

This manual provides information for programming using the NFS2-640 keypad connected to the control panel. VeriFire™ Tools must be used for programming if no keypad is used, or if a network control annunciator is used as the keypad in either a network or standalone application. Refer to VeriFire™ Tools for information on programming without the NF2S-640 keypad, and the NF2S- 640 Installation Manual and NCA-2 Manual for installation information.

For details on control panel operation, refer to the NFS2-640 Operations Manual.

The NF2S-640 provides two methods for field-programming the control panel:

• Using the built-in “Program Change” interface

• The VeriFire™ Tools Programming Utility

ACS Selection Group M

FirstCommand NFC-50/100 and FireVoice (NFV-25/50ZS) are single channel and can play one message. Message priority is determined by the message number: lower-numbered messages have the higher priorities (that is, Message 2 has a higher priority than Message 3). Message 0 (OFF) has the lowest priority.

To use ACS for controlling the FirstCommand and FireVoice, install by programming Annunciator A1 as Group M through panel or VeriFire Tools programming. Refer to the First Command or FireVoice manual to properly configure the FACP.

 VeriFire Tools Programming

Annunciator programming must be performed as follows:

• Program Annunciator Address 1 as Group M. (Refer to Table 2.26 for point definitions.)

• Assign ACS points in user Map 1.

40 NFS2-640/E Programming Manual — P/N 52742:L2 7/17/14

Basic Program Programming

• Map the panel zones to the desired annunciator point. Refer to the FirstCommand or FireVoice NFV-25/50ZS manual for more information, including dipswitch settings.

If VeriFire Tools is not used and Group M is programmed at the panel, Zone 00 (general alarm) will be mapped to A1p11 and A1p40. A general alarm will play message 1 and activate an all-call on the FirstCommand or FireVoice. VeriFire Tools must be used for speaker circuit and message control.

ACS Selection Group N

This group is the same as Group A (See Table 2.14 on page 35), with the following exceptions:

• It should be selected only for TM-4s used for remote station communication.

• Selection Group N follows the alarm relay for annunciation (Selection Group A annunciates immediately).

• The yellow LED of annunciator point 2 is for Alarm Silence only (in Selection Group A it is for Signal Silenced).

ACS Selection Group O

This group is the same as Group A (See Table 2.14 on page 35), with the following exceptions:

• It should be selected for only for TM-4s used as Fire Municipal Box Trip outputs.

• Selection Group O provides a “Master Box” trouble displayed at the panel.

• Selection Group O follows the alarm relay for annunciation (Selection Group A annunciates immediately).

no activity, the control panel automatically returns to normal operation.

• Walk Test may be exited at any time by pressing the ESC key.

*” (silent) in the Walk Test field. All

WARNING:

Walk Test mode deactivates fire protection. Always observe the following:

1. Prior to Walk Test, secure all protected buildings, and notify the building owner/operator,

fire department, and other pertinent personnel that testing is in progress.

2. Immediately after Walk Test is completed, notify the same people that testing is complete

and is restored to normal operation.

WARNING: Physically disconnect all releasing devices before starting Walk Test. It is not sufficient to disable in any other manner.

NOTE: Walk Test will not start if any devices are active (i.e., fire alarms, security, supervisories

or pre-alarms.) To perform a walk test while a device is active, disable the device and press the System Reset button.

Definition of Abort Switches

The control panel provides for four (4) types of Abort Switches (ULI, IRI, NYC, and AHJ) that you can use, that will affect the operation of a Delay Timer mapped to the same Releasing Zone. For example, an Abort Switch selected for Releasing Zone R05 only affects the Delay Timer selected for R05. Other requirements for using an Abort Switch include the following:

• Connecting a monitor module to a UL-listed abort station, such as the NBG-12LRA shown

below.

• Program the monitor module with the Type Code

Addressable Monitor Module Point” on page 22.)

• Abort switch shall not be used with a preaction system or a CO

ABORT SWITCH. (Refer to “Modify an

This section contains information for programming each type of Abort Switch for a Releasing Zone.

How an Abort Switch Works

The figure below contains an example for configuring an Abort Switch and shows the requirements for using an Abort Switch for Releasing Zone R05, which are:

• A monitor module is wired to an abort station

• The monitor module is programmed with the Type Code,

• All initiating devices and outputs are mapped to a common Releasing Zone (R05 shown)

• Releasing Zone R05 is programmed with the releasing functions: Delay, Abort, Cross, and

 How it Works

ABORT SWITCH as

When the first alarm occurs in a releasing zone programmed with a cross-zone code, pressing the abort switch will prevent activation of the releasing zone should a second alarm occur while the switch is held. When the abort switch is released, if a second alarm has occurred while the switch was held, the ten-second IRI timer activates immediately, and the control panel activates the releasing zone outputs at the end of the IRI timer countdown. When the abort switch is released and a second alarm has not occurred while the switch was held, the panel waits for the cross-zone conditions to be met before activating the releasing zone.

WARNING:

The IRI abort switch will only work if it is pushed before the second alarm occurs. If it is pushed after the second alarm, the releasing zone will already have been activated, and the switch will have no effect.

3. Press at this point to save the Abort Switch value if no other fields on the screen

are changing. To change another field on the screen, move the cursor into position by pressing the arrow keys on the keypad.

 How It Works

When an alarm initiates in the programmed Releasing Zone, pressing and holding the Abort switch stops the Delay Timer countdown. The Delay Timer restarts at the beginning of its countdown when the Abort switch is released. When the Delay Timer expires, the 90-second NYC timer starts counting down. When both timers expire, the control panel activates Releasing Zone outputs.

NOTE: 120 seconds is the maximum delay after the Abort switch is released. If the Delay Timer time plus the NYC delay time of 90 seconds exceeds 120 seconds, Releasing Zone outputs will still be activated at 120 seconds after the Abort switch is released.

 Example 1 - Delay Time Does Not Exceed 120 Seconds

Select a Delay Timer value for R05 of 15 seconds. The Releasing Zone activates and the 15-second Delay Timer starts. Ten seconds into the Delay Timer countdown, press and hold the Abort Switch for 30 seconds, then release the Abort Switch. The control panel restarts the Delay Timer at 15 seconds and adds the NYC delay of 90 seconds. The delay timers will both expire at 105 seconds,

A.2.3 Using Cross Zones

Purpose of Cross Zones

Using Cross Zones lets you program the control panel to activate a Releasing Zone and any output mapped to the Releasing Zone only after a predetermined sequence of events occurs. (If not using Cross Zones, set CROSS= N.)

NOTE: Only the first Software Zone (Z01-Z99) listed in the zone map is used to determine Cross=Z.

A summary of the types of Cross Zones and the conditions for activating a Releasing Zone:

Type Activates when

Y Two or more detectors or modules are alarmed that are mapped to one of the ten Releasing Zones

Z Two or more detectors or modules are alarmed that are mapped to two different software zones

H At least one smoke detector or module mapped to one of the ten Releasing Zones (R0-R9) is

(R0-R9).

and mapped to one of the ten Releasing Zones (R0-R9).

alarmed and at least one heat detector mapped to the same Releasing Zone (R0-R9) is alarmed.

NOTE: When in alarm, Special Zones R0-R9 appear in the CBE list as ZR00-ZR09. For example, R5 appears in the CBE list as ZR05.

How Cross Zones Work

Below is an illustrated example of how Cross Zones work, using five Cross Zone selections (four detectors and a NAC mapped to Releasing Zone R1):

A Manual Release Delay switch overrides the FACP programmed Delay Timer in certain circumstances, but not the soak timer.

Override Circumstances:

When the Manual Release Delay Switch activates, the control panel replaces the Delay Time with 30 seconds if the Delay Timer

• is set to more than 30 seconds

•is running, and

• has not counted down below 30 seconds.

NOTE: When the Delay Timer is set to less than 30 seconds, activation of the Manual Release Delay Switch will invoke the FACP programmed Delay Time if the Delay Timer is not running, or the FACP programmed Delay Timer countdown time if it is running. Refer to the examples 1 through 5 later in this section.

Figure A.12 Monitor Module Configured as a Manual Release Delay Switch

For examples 1, 2, and 3, program Releasing Zone R5 with a Manual Release Delay switch and the following releasing selections:

Example 1 - The FACP programmed Delay Timer begins its 60 second countdown. The Manual Release Delay switch is pulled when the FACP Delay Timer has counted down to 48 seconds (elapsed time of 12 seconds). The 48 seconds remaining in the countdown are overridden by the 30second delay initiated by the Manual Release Delay switch. In this example, the total time elapsing from FACP countdown initiation to agent release is 42 seconds (12 + 30), less than the original 60 second FACP Delay Timer countdown.

Example 2 - The FACP programmed Delay Time begins its 60 second countdown. The Manual Release Delay switch is pulled when the FACP Delay Timer has counted down to 8 seconds. The 8 seconds remaining in the countdown is not changed when the switch is pulled. In this example, the total time elapsing from FACP countdown initiation to agent release is 60 seconds.

Example 3 - The FACP programmed Delay Time is not running (as would happen if the releasing station were pulled before an alarm registered). The Manual Release Delay Switch is activated by the pull station. Agent release will occur in 30 seconds.

For examples 4 and 5, the delay is changed to

Example 4 - The FACP programmed Delay Timer begins its 10 second countdown. The Manual Release Delay switch is pulled when the FACP Delay timer has counted down to 8 seconds.

Initiating Devices Releasing Applications

A.3 Initiating Devices

Releasing zone initiating devices include the following:

• FST-851 intelligent heat detectors

• FSI-851, FSP-851, FAPT-851, FSL-751 intelligent smoke detectors

• Conventional detection UL-listed devices connected to monitor modules

Refer to the SLC manual for the most up-to-date information about initiating devices.

You can use multiple initiating devices for the same releasing hazard. Do so by mapping initiating devices to the same Releasing Zone. Factory Mutual and certain Local Authorities Having Jurisdiction require using redundant wiring (NFPA 72 Style 6 or Style D) for initiating devices in releasing applications.

A.4 Warning Sounders

Warning sounders connect to any of the four panel NACs, or to control module circuits (refer to the NF2S-640 Installation Manual). Note the following:

• If selecting Cross Zones, a warning sounder only activates when two zones alarm.

• Warning sounders—unlike release solenoids—do not wait for a Delay Timer.

• If Coding Functions are required for warning sounders, use one of the NACs—not a control module.

• The same releasing hazard can activate multiple NACs.

Instructions for activating warning sounders:

To activate a sounder Do this

When the Delay Timer starts, when the releasing device activates, or both

Immediately when one of the initiating devices activate

Map the control module or NAC to a releasing hazard zone (R0-R9).

Map the control module or NAC to a separate zone (not R0-R9) that is also mapped to all initiating devices of the hazard.

A.5 Auxiliary Control Functions

B.1 Presignal and Positive Alarm Sequence (PAS)

B.1.1 What is Presignal and PAS?

Purpose

Presignal is a feature that initially causes alarm signals to only sound in specific areas, monitored by qualified persons. This allows delay of the alarm up to 180 seconds after the start of alarm processing. The control panel Presignal feature provides two selections:

•A Presignal Delay Timer (60-180 seconds) that delays activation of all outputs with a CBE

that includes Special Zone F0.

•A PAS (Positive Alarm Sequence) selection, in addition to the Presignal Delay Timer, that

allows a 15-second time period for acknowledging an alarm signal from a fire detection/initiating device. If the alarm is not acknowledged within 15 seconds, all local and remote outputs activate immediately and automatically.

An illustration of Presignal and PAS timing.

The control panel delays activation of outputs containing F0 in their Control-By-Event (CBE) list for all alarm initiating devices that contain F0 in their CBE list. A subsequent alarm will abort the Presignal Delay Timer and execute CBE lists.

Notes on using F0

• NFPA 72 requires installation of a PAS Inhibit switch, that can be used to turn off the PAS

delay timer when the control panel is unattended. Do so by programming a monitor module with the Type Code, on page 19.

• The Presignal Delay timer countdown can be stopped by pressing the

before the Presignal Delay Timer expires.

• Program zone F0 to participating inputs and outputs that have appropriate CBE zone map

entries.

• Outputs must be programmed for resound by fire.

Restrictions on using F0

• Do not include F0 in the CBE list for a releasing device.

• Do not include F0 in the CBE list for any monitor module that connects to a device other

than an automatic fire detector.

You can set Presignal Delay Timer between 60 and 180 seconds. A Presignal Delay Timer does not apply to the following:

• The System Alarm relay

• TM-4 polarity reversal alarm output

• TM-4 municipal box output

• UDACT/UDACT-2

Positive Alarm Sequence (PAS)

Outputs selected for PAS delay for 15 seconds. Pressing the ACKNOWLEDGE/SCROLL DISPLAY key within the 15-second delay will set the Presignal Delay Timer to the full programmed value (60-180 seconds, including the PAS delay of 15 seconds). When an alarm comes from an initiating device with a CBE list that includes F0, the control panel delays the following outputs:

• System Alarm relay

• TM-4 Polarity Reversal Alarm output

• TM-4 Municipal Box output

• UDACT/UDACT-2

B.2 Time Control Zones

NOTE: All active Time Control outputs will turn off temporarily while resetting or programming

the control panel

All outputs with a CBE list containing F5 or F6 activate within the times specified for the days of the week listed in F5 or F6. All smoke detectors with a CBE list containing F5 or F6 switch to their occupied level (lowest sensitivity, AL:9) within the times specified for the days of the week listed in ZF5 or ZF6. Refer to “Intelligent Sensing Applications” on page 95 for details on setting detector sensitivity.

Time Control is active for all days of the week listed in F5 or F6. Holidays listed in F7 are excluded unless you list Holidays (H) in the day-of-week selection of F5 and F6. Enter the time in a 24-hour format with the OFF time later than the ON time. After changing programming using Time Control, always reset the control panel.

B.3 Coding Functions for NACS

Coding Functions are pulsed signals that can be selected, using Special Zone F8, to energize NACs when a fire alarm activates. NACs must be programmed with a CBE list that includes F8.

NOTE: Do not include F8 in the CBE list of NACs used for releasing or zone coding applications.

Select Coding Functions on a global basis, through Special Zone F8. That is, all NACs selected for Coding Functions will sound the same code when activated. Table B.1 contains descriptions of each Coding Function selection.

Intelligent Sensing Applications features include the following:

• Drift Compensation and Smoothing

• Maintenance Warnings - Three Levels

• Self-optimizing Pre-Alarm

• Detector Sensitivity

• Cooperative Multi-Detector Sensing

C.2.1 Drift Compensation and Smoothing

Drift compensation uses algorithms (U.S. patent pending) that identify and compensate for longterm changes in the analog readings from each smoke detector. (Typically, dirt and dust accumulation inside the smoke chamber causes long-term changes in detector readings.) Drift compensation does the following:

• Allows a detector to retain its original ability to detect actual smoke, and resist false alarms,

even as dirt and dust accumulates.

• Reduces maintenance requirements by allowing the control panel to automatically perform

the periodic sensitivity measurements required by NFPA Standard.

The software also provides smoothing filters to remove transient noise signals, usually caused by electrical interference. Different smoothing algorithms are used, depending on the sensitivity selection of each detector. Refer to “Detector Sensitivity Settings” on page 101 for more information on detector sensitivity levels.

C.2.3 Self-Optimizing Pre-Alarm

You can set each detector, except Heat, for Self-Optimizing Pre-Alarm (PA=1). In this SelfOptimizing mode, the software measures the normal peak analog readings and sets the Pre-Alarm level just above these normal peaks. This allows extremely sensitive Pre-Alarm capability with reasonable protection against non-fire signals. The figure below shows a graphical representation of the Self-Optimizing Pre-Alarm level:

Figure C.3 Self-optimizing Pre-Alarm Level

For more information on setting Pre-Alarm levels, refer to “Changing Detector Sensitivity” on page 54

C.2.4 Detector Sensitivity

The control panel provides nine Sensitivity Levels for alarm detection and pre-alarm as follows:

NOTE: For a list of all detector sensitivity levels, see Table C.2 on page 101.

• Alarm Sensitivity Levels - Select the sensitivity of a detector from 1-9 (1=highest

sensitivity; 9=lowest sensitivity).

•Pre-Alarm Sensitivity Levels - Select one of nine levels from 1 to 9 (0=no Pre-Alarm,

1=self-optimizing, 2=highest sensitivity, 9=lowest sensitivity). You can set Pre-Alarm operation to Action (latching) or Alert (non-latching) and to activate Special Zones. For instructions on programming, refer to “How to Select a Pre-Alarm Level” on page 100.

Set the sensitivity levels as fixed or programmed for day and night operation. For details, refer to “Time Control Zones” on page 93.

C.2.5 Cooperative Multi-Detector Sensing

Cooperative Multi-Detector Sensing is the ability of a smoke detector to consider readings from nearby detectors in making alarm or pre-alarm decisions. Each detector can include up to two other detectors in its decision. Without statistical sacrifice in the ability to resist false alarms, Cooperative Multi-Detector Sensing allows a detector to increase its sensitivity to actual smoke by a factor of almost 2 to 1. Cooperative Multi-Detector Sensing also allows the combination of ionization with photoelectric technology in reaching an alarm decision. The figure below shows a graph representing Cooperative Multi-Detector Sensing:

C.3 Pre-Alarm

C.3.1 Definition

The Pre-Alarm function is a programmable option which determines the system’s response to realtime detector sensing values above the programmed setting. Use the Pre-Alarm function if you want to get an early warning of incipient or potential fire conditions. There are two levels of Pre-Alarm:

• Alert (Refer to “Alert Level” below)

• Action (Refer to “Action Level” on page 100)

Alert and Action Pre-Alarm settings are global. For instance, if you program Pre-Alarm for Alert, all intelligent detectors programmed for Pre-Alarm are set to Alert (refer to “How to Select a PreAlarm Level” on page 100). You can, however, set unique Pre-Alarm sensitivity levels (PA) for individual detectors (refer to “Detector Sensitivity Settings” on page 101).

C.3.2 Alert Level

Alert Functions

The control panel software, in addition to checking for alarm levels, checks for Pre-Alarm thresholds for each addressable, intelligent smoke detector programmed for Pre-Alarm. If a detector’s real-time sensing level exceeds the programmed Alert threshold, the control panel indicates an Pre-Alarm condition for the detector. The control panel does the following functions when a detector reaches pre-alarm level:

• The Pre-Alarm message is sent to the History buffer and to any installed FDU-80s and

printers. The message is sent (and time stamped) at the time that it first occurred. This historical data could provide valuable information about the progress of a fire.

• The

PRE-ALARM LED flashes and the panel sounder pulses until acknowledged.

• Zone F9 activates—but Zone 00 (general alarm) or any other zone, System Trouble relay

and System Alarm relay do not activate.

• The Pre-Alarm indication for this detector will restore automatically to normal if its

sensitivity, programmable to one of nine settings, drops below pre-alarm level. Zone F09 clears automatically when no Pre-Alarm conditions exist.

• A subsequent alarm for this detector also clears the Pre-Alarm indication.

Example of an Alert Level

When an ion detector is programmed for AL:7 and PA:5 (covered in “Changing Detector Sensitivity” on page 54), an Alert Pre-Alarm occurs at measured smoke detector levels that exceed

1.00% per foot obscuration. When this happens the panel sounder and the

and a display appears on the LCD, similar to the sample screen shown below:

C.3.3 Action Level

Action Functions

If you program a detector for Action Pre-Alarm and the detector reaches a level that exceeds the programmed Pre-Alarm level, the control panel indicates an Action condition. Indication at the panel is the same as in Figure C.6 above. The control panel does the following functions when a detector reaches the programmed pre-alarm level:

• The Action message is sent to the History buffer and to any installed FDU-80s and printers.

The message is sent (and time stamped) only at the time that it first occurred. This historical data could provide valuable information about the progress of a fire.

• The

PRE-ALARM LED and panel sounder pulse until acknowledged.

• Zone F09 is activated—but Zone Z00 (general alarm or any other zone) and the System

Trouble and System Alarm relays do not activate.

• The fifth zone programmed (not the first four) for this detector activates. The fifth zone is

the right-most entry on line two of the detector CBE list in the Point Programming screen. (For more information, refer to “Modify an Addressable Detector Point” on page 20). You can use the fifth zone to control functions of a detector or group of detectors once the prealarm level is reached. Fifth zone activations also allow ACS annunciation by a detector or group of detectors in Action Pre-Alarm condition.

• The Pre-Alarm condition and the zone programmed will latch until system reset, even if the

sensitivity drops below the pre-alarm level.

• A subsequent alarm condition for this detector clears the Action indication from the LCD
