This manual covers the Vigilon range of control panels and does not specifically cover the 34K 4-Loop Control Panel.
For information on 34K 4-Loop Control panel refer to Vigilon BS 4-Loop Control panel in this manual, as both ranges of panels have version 3+ software and the only difference is in the branding.

Safety information

&
1. Do not remove or replace printed circuit boards, fuses or attempt to wire the control panel with the panel powered up. Always power down the mains supply at the fused spur unit and disconnect the battery supply to the panel.
2. When powering up always power-up the mains supply first before the battery supply. The power-down should be done in reverse order.
3. When installing the cards into the master control board or backplane always use anti-static work procedures.

Pre-visit checks

Ensure there are accurate as fitted wiring drawings available, 2 copies are required.
¨
Any damaged equipment has been noted for replacement.
¨
Ensure access will be provided to system equipment installed in the protected
¨
premises.
The installer (electrical contractor) will be in attendance until the installation is
¨
proved.
Site contact or representative will be available during the visit.
¨
Ensure the commissioning tool along with the associated cables, printer and
¨
instructions are available.
Ensure spare parts are available, such as:
¨
MCP glasses
MCP test key
Printer paper roll

Points to remember

Earth leads
All earth leads supplied with the system equipment must be securely fitted to
¨
maintain earth continuity.
Parts for later installation
All unused parts should be retained in their respective container for safe keeping until
¨
required.
Loop wiring
The loop cable should have been connected to the appropriate terminals at each
¨
device, as shown in the installation manual in locations identified on the as fitted wiring drawings.
Enclosure
Access into equipment enclosure is usually by means of opening an outer door/cover.
¨
A panel may also have an inner door which will also need opening.
Unattended equipment
Where equipment is to be left unattended, then it is important to close the door /cover
¨
for safety.
Copper fingers
¨
Copper fingers are conductive spring like strips fitted to metal assemblies. They are fitted to shield against electromagnetic and radio frequency interferences. Ensure the copper finger strips are intact and no damage has occurred. Damaged fingers will reintroduce the gap to let in/out interferences.
Static precaution
¨
The discharge of static electricity can damage or degrade sensitive electronic components on printed circuit boards. Anti-static procedures should be followed when handling static sensitive boards.
&
It is important that anti-static procedures are NOT carried out on live equipment.
Removal and disconnection
¨
Any disconnection of cables or removal of parts from an assembly must be restored or replaced.
Battery
¨
To prevent damage to batteries and equipment, the terminals of the battery must not simultaneously touch any conductive part of the equipment enclosure.
Vigilon 4/6 loops & Compact (VA) panels & network nodes
Sealed lead acid battery can have a useful life of up to 5 years from the date of
¨
manufacture, it is strongly recommended that batteries are replaced after 4 years. The batteries must be disposed of correctly by following national or local legislation and battery manufacturers recommendations.
Powering up
When equipment is being powered up always connect the mains supply before the
¨
battery supply. Power-down should be done in reverse order.
&
powered equipment.
Panel Buzzer
It may be necessary during commissioning to switch Off the panel buzzer. It is
¨
possible to selectively switch the disablement, fault, fire, supervisory and command build buzzer sound to Off or On. It is important to ensure that the buzzer is switched On for normal operation after commissioning.
Fire plan
The system should be tested in accordance with the project specification.
¨
Sensor cover
¨
Each fire sensor installed in the system should have been fitted with a dust cover during installation. The dust covers must be removed from all the fire sensors after the panel loops have been satisfactorily powered-up and with addresses allocated to each device ready for further checks and tests.
Site specific installation
¨
Plant equipment interfaced to the system should be tested to recommendations made in the project specification.
Test mode (EN - V4) & Commission Mode (BS - V3+)
¨
During commissioning of the system you will need to switch On the Test/Commission mode. It is important to switch Off the Test/Commission mode after the work is over, to ensure the system operates normally.
Informing responsible persons
¨
It is important to inform the person(s) responsible for the fire alarm system that the system is being commissioned.

Controls Description
Pressing Menu On/Off will enable/disable the on screen menu facility which gives access to the system menus.
The 'Fn' buttons are used to select functions and sub-functions of the system menus which appear on the display. Each option available at a menu level has an associated function button and on pressing a function button will select the option described on the display.
The Cancel Buzzer button when pressed will stop the internal panel buzzer from sounding. Note the local buzzer is automatically silenced when the emergency microphone is being used to announce live speech from a Vigilon
Compact VA panel.
Pressing the Sound Alarms button will announce 'evacuate message' and sound the evacuate alarms. This button is only pressed in an emergency or at other agreed times, for example when conducting a system test or practice evacuation.
Pressing the Silence Alarms button will stop emergency message announcements and silence the system alarms.
Pressing the Reset button will clear any fires and return the panel to the condition seen before the fire event. If a fire condition should reoccur immediately after a 'reset' then the indicated device should be investigated.
Controls and indications
If the Verify facility has been set up, then pressing the 'Verify' button soon after a fire detection will increase the time delay before the alarm sounders are activated. This gives the user time to investigate the cause of the alarm and option to cancel the alarm within the delay time period.
The 'U' buttons can be configured during commissioning to output user-defined actions, such as to disable devices in areas where smoke may be generated and to activate a plant shutdown, for example during a fire condition.
The function of the 'U' buttons should be written on the label that is fitted on the back of the outer door.
Note: The Vigilon 4/6 loop panels have four configurable 'U' buttons. At a Vigilon panel to operate a 'Un' key: press the 'Shift' key first then the 'Un' key.
This is pressed to acknowledge an entry of data or label text.

The backplane assembly is fitted inside the left side of the backbox.
The backplane has the card slots to facilitate interconnection of plug-in cards, such as the Main Controller Card (MCC), Loop Processor Cards, IO Cards and Network Cards.
The backplane also has the flash memory (NVM) which is under the control of MCC and is a shared memory to which the system configuration data is saved.
The link header on the backplane marked LK1 provides 'write' protection and will stop the SAVE and BACKUP commands from the panel controls modifying the memory.
Once the system is fully commissioned the link LK1 should be configured to 'write protected', this is important on sites where customers require compliance to the EN54 Part 2 standard.

Installing a replacement MCB in an older Vigilon Compact panel

These instructions cover how to fit a replacement Master Control Board (VCS-MCB-N) into a COMPACT-24-N (networkable) or COMPACT-24 (non networkable) Vigilon Compact panel.
&
- When a network card is fitted onto the MCB, ensure a spade tab (supplied) is fitted under the PCB fixing screw at position u.
- Also ensure the bottom PCB fixing screw v is tightened to give good electrical connection.

How to replace the MCB

There are in existence four variants of Vigilon Compact panels in the field. Here are the steps to replace an MCB fitted in a Vigilon Compact panel.
Save Configuration to Commissioning tool
¨
Power down
¨
Vigilon Compact Panel
36 4188-856_issue 7_07/15_Generic Vigilon (Compact + VA) Comms.
If the panel is functioning correctly then before powering down ensure the system configuration is retrieved using the commissioning tool.
Completely power down the panel by isolating the mains and battery supply and then remove the ribbon cable connectors from the MCB.
Remove the cards
Remove the Loop card(s) and Network card# from the MCB and then
¨
remove the MCB from the panel. (# - where applicable)
Select the firmware part number and set the rotary switch
Make a note of the firmware number on the chip in socket IC3 of the
¨
MCB being replaced. Determine the applicable switch setting required from the table below and set the rotary switch on the replacement MCB.

Re-fit the cards
¨ Fit the replacement MCB into the panel and reconnect the ribbon
cables, and then fit the previously removed Network and Loop cards.
¨
An earth lead must be fitted between the spade tabs u on MCB and Network card.
Configuration
¨
Using a chip extractor extract the back up 'Configuration' chip fitted in socket IC16 (NVM) of the MCB being replaced and fit this chip into the replacement MCB.
&
Where the Configuration chip is known to be corrupt or is incompatible then DO NOT fit the chip into the replacement MCB. Instead transmit the saved configuration from the commissioning tool to the replacement MCB. The transmission must take place after panel power up. After transmitting the configuration to the panel 'back up' the data to NVM on Card 14.
Power up
¨
Power up the mains and battery supplies to the panel.

How to configure the monitored input

The monitored input at the fire panel is activated by an external switch installed a maximum of 100m cable distance away from the fire panel. The input is monitored for both short and open circuit faults. When the input is active it triggers the command build number 250 of the fire panel.
4188-856_issue 7_07/15_Generic Vigilon (Compact + VA) Comms. 41
Example The following example shows how to configure the monitored input at the panel to provide an
output sound signal 1 alarm in sector 2 of loop 1 as a reversible action. This means on operating or "closing" the monitored input the panel will start alarms in sector 1 and on releasing or "opening" the monitored input the panel will stop all the alarms from sounding.

Resonance Search

1
Where S-Quad sounder devices manufactured post April 2014 are installed in a system then these devices automatically check that the components used to produce the sound output are working at their resonant frequency, this is the optimum point where the sound output is at its loudest for the lowest power consumption.
During a resonance search the sounders will slowly change the tone frequency to confirm the resonant point. This change in tone frequency will be heard as a slight tone shift that lasts for about 1 minute.
After each allocation of loop circuit from a VIGILON or VIGILON Compact panel and subsequent first operation of the Sound Alarm function then there is one time only post allocation Resonance Search
performed.
&
connect the battery. The power-down sequence should be in the reverse order.
How addresses are allocated to devices on the loop
Each device connected to a loop circuit is allocated a software address on a sequential lowest unused value basis. The allocation of addresses starts from one End of a loop circuit in a numerical order. If both ends of the loop circuit are connected then the allocation of addresses start from End1. On reaching a T-breaker the devices on the spur circuit are allocated addresses. On completion of allocation of addresses to the spur circuit the process continues along the main loop.
1 Resonance search has the advantage that ensures sounders operate at maximum efficiency, especially in extremes of temperature and to take
Always power-up the panel with the mains supply first and then
account of potential ageing of the sounder parts with time. It is important for resonance search to be conducted during annual maintenance. Note also sounder & VAD devices are monitored for failure. Also EN54 Part 3 speech sounder has an attention tone volume that is lower than the volume output from a standard sounder. All speech sounder devices will not perform the resonance search unless this mode is exited and set to maximum volume.

loop cables to the panel.
It is recommended that each external circuit is wired up to the terminals at the panel, one circuit at a time and tests conducted to ensure that each circuit is functioning correctly. We start by connecting End 1 of the loop only.
¨
Ensure end-2 of the loop cable remains disconnected.
¨
Switch ON the mains and battery supply to power-up the panel, you will initially see the powering up messages. If there are no device 'address allocation' faults the panel will start the loop.

¨
An allocation fault that has been rectified will not be recognised until after re-allocation of the loop.
¨
A loop with allocation faults will not be able to distinguish between a point type sensor and a call point.

How to re-allocate addresses to a loop circuit

It is possible to selectively commence the address reallocation to devices on a loop circuit:.

Before changes are made to the wiring inside the panel first power-down the respective loop circuit.
Disconnect End 1 of loop 1 and connect the End-2 of the loop and power up to commence
¨
reallocating of addresses to devices on the loop, this time from End 2. Ensure addresses are allocated to all the devices on the loop.
¨
On completion of this test, power down the loop and connect both ends of the loop and ensure addresses are allocated to all the devices on the loop from End 1.
¨
Repeat these tests on the other loops if fitted.

Plexus Devices

¨
When a short circuit fault is found on allocation of addresses, the loop re-allocates addresses to the device before the short circuit. The device loop breaker remains open and the device LED is lit.
During start up
¨
A loop is started after allocation. Each device is set up to start operating normally based on its type, when the analogue channels are read.
Typical starter fault
ASCII Device is Faulty, number X Loop Y
The above fault will only be displayed if repeat / mimic panel is powered up.
After soft allocation of addresses to loop devices the Plexus devices will need to be allocated addresses using the Plexus tool.
The Plexus tool will need to be connected to the VIGILON panel for LRT binding data to be created. The binding data is then applied to each Plexus device so that it is associated with the LRT and the Plexus devices is given a SAFE device address.
For full information on how to pre commission and pre allocate a Plexus system see publication titled 'Preallocation & Pre-Commissioning - User Guide (4188-1011_Part 2).

SAFE Addressing

A SAFE address is an address given to a device during commissioning, the value of which is stored in the non volatile memory within the electronics module of the device, the SAFE address is therefore carried with the device.
A SAFE address can be given to any device on a loop circuit:
Individually
¨
in a consecutive range or
¨
to all the devices on a loop circuit.
¨

2km Loop circuit - tests using LDT

Loop diagnostic tool

Applicable for panel fitted with VIG-LPC-EN or COMPACT-LPC-EN cards Where 2km loop cards are fitted in a VIGILON or VIGILON Compact panel having compatible loop
devices then the Loop Diagnostics Tool should be used to test the loop circuits.
For information on the Loop Diagnostic Tool see the Loop diagnostic tool help guide. During certain tests using the Loop Diagnostic tool where directed by the tool it may be necessary
to repair a loop circuit after a test.

How to [Repair] a loop circuit

When a loop circuit is tested for open or short circuit fault or if a genuine wiring short or open circuit fault should occur, then rectification action must be taken. To rectify the fault, remove the fault and process the repair command at the control panel.
Press the Menu On/Off button and select [Test /Eng], [Usercode] and if a password access is required, type in the PIN and press the Enter button. Select [Loop] and then momentarily select <etc> and select [Repair] and type in the loop circuit you want to repair, for example loop 1or 2 and then select [Enter].

Loop resistence measured by the panel

The loop cards VIG-LPC-EN or COMPACT-LPC-EN measures and displays the loop resistance on the panel screen during power up of the loop circuits, see page 52. The measured resistance can be viewed at any time after allocation using the [info] menu under the Loop Card status at the panel.

1km Loop circuit - manual tests

Applicable for panel fitted with VIG-LPC and COMPACT-LPC loop cards The loop circuit tests involve checking the loop circuit resistance, capacitance and then carrying out
open circuit, short circuit and break tests.

Loop resistance and capacitance

Power down and disconnect both ends of the loop 0V wiring at the control panel,
¨
whose resistance and capacitance are to be measured.
Resistance
Using a multimeter measure the resistance between the loop 0V (End 1) and loop 0V
¨
(End 2). In practice this should not be greater than 13 ohms for 1Km cable ONLY. Dependent on the number of devices on a loop circuit over 1Km cable length ONLY, an allowance can be made for contact resistance of up to 10mW per device.
Over 1Km cable length ONLY: Worse case measured loop resistance:
having 50 devices no greater than 13.5 ohms having 100 devices no greater than 14 ohms having 200 devices no greater than 15 ohms
¨
Check the loop cable screen to loop 0V resistance this should be an open circuit.
Capacitance measure
¨
Typically where alternative allowed loop cable types are being used then a measured capacitance between the loop 0V and cable screen should practically be no be greater than 0.21uF. However the Loop Driver is capable of driving a higher capacitance.
However the loop resistances and many other loop parameters can be measured and viewed using a Loop Diagnostic Tool.

Loop circuit tests

Loop short circuit test

A loop short circuit isolation test should be carried out at this stage. It is recommended that the sounders are switched On before conducting this test.
End 1 Short test
¨
Create a short circuit by wiring a link across the loop terminals at End-1. There should be no loss of any part of the system. The display should read:
Wiring changed - short at card x number y loop z Wiring changed - loop split
¨
After rectification (removal of the short circuit) you will need to [Repair] the loop circuit.
End 2 and Mid circuit Short test
¨
¨
A short circuit test should then be repeated at End-2 and again at mid point of the loop.
After each test carry out rectification (remove the short circuit) you will then need to [Repair] the loop circuit, see page 62 .

Ground break test

A ground break test should be carried out at this stage:
Disconnect the 0V line from End-1 of a loop circuit.
¨
"
End 1 cable break test
¨
The cable break may have to be sustained for up to a minute. The display should read:
Wiring changed - ground break at card x number y on loop z
¨
To clear the fault, the 0V line should be reconnected and then the loop should be repaired using the [Repair] function at the panel.
End 2 loop break test
¨
The ground break test should be repeated at the other end of the loop circuit, End-2 and again at Mid point of the loop.
"
loop will run as normal.
¨
To clear the fault, the 0V line should be reconnected and then the loop should be repaired using the [Repair] function at the panel, see page 62.
A single 0V line break should not cause the loss of any part of the system.
The exact location of a ground break is not indicated at the panel, however the

Checking the Exception/Subfault codes

Exceptions
Meaning Action
/Condition codes
'Exception' (EN) or 'Subfault' (BS) are condition codes and these codes provide information about a sensor device. A code indicates small changes in the environmental condition, sensor mechanism and how the sensor performs in the system. To ensure that the sensor exception codes are meaningful, all existing codes must be cleared and the system left undisturbed for at least 24 hours.
Code definition
There are ten different conditions possible for each sensor type, although not all of them are defined. Each condition code has a range of 0-3.
Code Meaning
0 This condition is OK. This code is not displayed unless another non
zero code exists.
1 or 2 Suggests preventive maintenance is required, where necessary, to
avoid possible false alarms.
3 The sensor is faulty. A fault condition indication is given at the control
panel. A message reading ‘Sensor Out of Specification’ is displayed.
A CODE 3 is automatically disabled by the system to prevent false alarms.

0010000000or 0020000000
This is the sub-fire band and if set as shown it should be taken as showing that the sensor is at its optimum sensitivity for its location.
A sub-fire has been generated which would suggest that the sensor was either too sensitive for its environment or that the sensor type may be incorrect for the location.
These codes indicate that the sensor is in a windy location. This will cause the chamber voltage to drop. Code Level 1 shows one
No action need be taken.
Action should be to check location and alter sensor state or type as required. This should only be done with the knowledge of the customer. Remember to re-backup all changes to states onto the NVM.
The location should be checked and a change in siting made, if required. Note: Wind will not cause
the sensor to false alarm. drop only, Level 2 shows greater than one drop.
0000100000or 0000200000or 0000010000or 0000020000
This shows that the sensor time averages are close to acceptable limits.
On commissioning the
sensor should be replaced.
A sensor with code 2 is
worse than code 1. On
maintenance sensors with
code 2 should be replaced.

Preparation

Check to ensure access will be provided to areas where installed equipment is to be
¨
tested, such as to locked or secure areas.
Ensure all sensor dust covers are removed from sensor devices.
¨
Tests may be made easier by having: sensor extractor tool, smoke poles, smoke
¨
canister, heat gun, beam obscuration filter, sensor removal kit and MCP test key, plus keys to open system equipment. Where applicable read the instructions supplied with the test kit.

Communication to site occupants

Before undertaking any of these tests and to prevent unnecessary building evacuation,
¨
ensure:
all affected personnel on the site are informed, via a responsible person that the
fire alarm system is being commissioned.
where there is a link to an alarm receiving centre, the appropriate action should be taken to ensure they are informed that tests are being carried out on the system.

Commissioning Tool

It is much easier for the panel and system to be configured from the Commissioning tool, see the Commissioning tool manual.

Plant equipment

"
equipment interfaced to the fire alarm system should be isolated.
¨
Tests should be carried out following customer consent. It may also be necessary to obtain third-party consent dependent on what plant equipment is connected to the panels auxiliary contacts.

Fire Sensors

&
1. When testing heat sensors DO NOT use a heat gun for the test in a hazardous environment.
2. Manufacturer recommended test equipment and methods must be used to fire test flame detectors connected via interface unit.
4. When smoke testing fire sensors using artificial smoke, avoid excessive spray to prevent accumulation of sticky residue on sensor, see instructions on the smoke canister. Ensure the 'Test mode' is used when performing smoke test on an S-Quad sensor
5. The beam sensors should be tested using obscuration filters to simulate smoke at the appropriate sensitivity STATE.
The BS5839:Part 1 recommends that all sensors are tested for correct operation.
¨
Unless otherwise instructed all sensors should be tested. Each Sensor should also be checked for any physical obstacles that would inhibit the operation of the sensor in the event of a fire.
¨
Each Sound and Speech part of the S-Quad and S-Cubed should output the correct signal at the appropriate volume level in accordance with the Standard requirements and to meet the site specific needs as agreed with the customer.
¨
The VAD/Strobe part of S-Quad and S-Cubed should operate at the required flash rate in the event of a fire and is not obstructed.
¨

Vigilon Compact Network

A VIGILON Compact network can consist of a number of control panels and network nodes wired together in a secure loop. A secure loop is achieved by installation of a network card in each VIGILON Compact (VA) panel and VIGILON Compact Network Node to facilitate the network interconnection of panels and nodes.
Each standalone system is first commissioned before being networked together with other panels and nodes.
The network commissioning process involves systematic introduction of each standalone system to the network with tests to ensure the network is working.
The whole networked system is then configured and tested to ensure alarms and global controls and operates to site requirements.
"
When setting the address switches on the 'network card', ensure the network controller which can be the network node or panel is given the lowest address.
A network controller is a node that can be connected to a Central monitoring system.
All panels in a networked system must operate at the same baud rate, normally this is
38.4K where copper network card is being used.

Single Network

Each standalone system must first be fully commissioned individually.
¨
Check that the correct cable is used to wire the network, the installer's manual lists all
¨
the approved cables.

Powering-up the Network

Add one panel at a time starting from the network controller (Node 1) at side 1.
¨
"
For each panel powered-up the network controller will automatically try to establish
¨
communication with the connected equipment.
The network controller will display the status of the network as being started, secure
¨
or non-secure and from now on will monitor and control the network communications.
Use disable comms to isolate a panel from the rest of the network, ie it operates at the
¨
network card in an echo mode, select Menu On/Off -> [Control] -> [Disable] -> [Comms] and enter the Network Card usually number 4.
It can take a few minutes for the system map to update.

How to check a Network map

Using the Menu On/Off -> [Info] -> [Map] -> [NetMap] option to enter the
¨
network card address n.
The display will provide a list in cabling order the addresses of panels in the networked system.

How to check Network Card status

Using the Menu On/Off -> [Info] -> [Status] -> [Card] and enter the network card address in this case it is '4'. The display will confirm:
the address of the network card
¨
the address of network controller
¨
and a set of condition codes
¨
Errors meaning
Freeblock Free memory blocks available to temporarily store messages
waiting to be processed. The maximum number = 199, although it may drop as low as 175 - 180 on a highly populated network. A lower value may indicate a high error value and will require rectification.

Fault Finding

The communication path in a secure network will alternate between end 1 (side 1) and
¨
end 2 (side 2) every minute.
The network will be non secure until the last panel is connected and powered-up.
¨

High errors

Check cable lengths and type used.
¨
Check wiring, connections and earthing arrangements. Check the network cable is
¨
correctly earthed to the equipment.
¨
Replace network card at point of failure, where required.
¨
Check the addresses and baud rates of the network cards of all the networked panels.

Errors meaning
Parity Parity is incorrect, data corrupted.
Framing 8- bit transmitted incorrectly and the data line does not return to
logic 1 at the end of the transmission.
CRC Cyclic redundancy code. When a message consisting of a number
of 8 bit transmissions is sent, a calculation is carried out to check that data corruption has not occurred.
Time out error
Where an 8 bit transmission block is not fully received, the network card will time out ready to receive the next message. A time out error will also be generated for each parity/ framing error.
¨
It may be necessary to investigate and:
look at the noise voltage between conductors, screen and earth.
"
Always reset the Network Card first when rechecking for errors, using
[Test/Eng] -> [Card] ->[Reset] -> Network Card 4.
On completion of the above the networked system may now be configured for network operation, for master sectors and global controls to be actioned as per site requirements.

Single Vigilon Network

A VIGILON network consists of a number of control panels of standalone systems and network nodes wired together in a secure loop using copper or fibre network cards.
A secure loop is achieved by installation of a copper or fibre network cards in each VIGILON panel and VIGILON Network Node to facilitate the interconnection of panels and nodes. Each standalone system is first commissioned before being networked together with other panels and nodes.
The commissioning involves systematic introduction of each standalone system to the network and tests to ensure the network is working.
The whole networked system is then configured and tested to ensure alarms and global controls operates to site requirements.
"
When setting the address switches on the 'network card', ensure the network controller is given the lowest address.
A network controller is a node/panel that can be connected to a Central monitoring system.
All panels in a networked system must operate at the same baud rate, normally this value is 38.4K where copper network cards are being used and 115.2K where Fibre network cards are being used.

Single Network

Each standalone system must first be fully commissioned individually.
¨
Check that the correct cable is used to wire the network.

Domain bridge message passing tests

To check the domain bridge connections and to ensure messages can be passed between networks the following must be done.
Trigger an event in a network, such as a fault.
Check the event is passed on to the connecting networks
¨

Domain bridge using Fibre Optic network card

Up to 64 small VIGILON networks can be connected together in a secure loop by using domain bridge fibre optics network card (VIG-NC-DOM-FO), with the card installed in socket P7 of the backplane. This allows the display of events at any control panel in the connected networks.
and is displayed at the networked control panels
Repeat the test at each network to establish message
¨
passing between networks
Finally back up the cards of the panel including the
¨
Network card and IO card to the Memory. This ensures the panels of each network knows the location of network controller, ie the domain bridge connection point.
Multiple Vigilon Networks
The above diagram shows small fibre networks connected together by a fibre network domain. It is equally possible to mix small copper networks and small fibre networks together in the manner shown above to a network domain.
