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 National Fire Protection Association Standard 72-2002 (NFPA 72-2002), 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 72-2002 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.

2.4 Magnet Sensors

2.4.1 Profile Magnetic Sensor

The profile magnetic sensor (refer to Figure 2.2) is used to create a unique profile upon start-up. It can also be used to start profile distribution for a gateway that contains a profile. The LED next to the profile magnet sensor turns on green for ½ a second when the sensor is activated.

2.4.2 Mesh Formation Magnetic Sensor

The mesh formation magnetic sensor (refer to Figure 2.2) toggles the gateway in and out of mesh formation mode. The initial activation of the sensor puts the gateway in mesh formation mode (as long as it contains a profile). A subsequent activation of the magnetic sensor toggles the gateway out of mesh formation and into the initial mesh restructuring and normal mode. The gateway can be placed back into mesh formation mode by activating the magnet sensor once again. The LED next to the profile magnet sensor turns on green for ½ a second when the sensor is activated.

The Mesh formation magnetic sensor can also be used to create a profile on start-up for a gateway that does not already contain a profile.

2.5 LED Indicators

The two LEDs on the gateway blink in the same pattern to allow the LED to be viewed from any angle. LED patterns are explained in Appendix D.

2.8 Configuration and Programming

To successfully configure and/or program the gateway:

1. Create a profile. A profile binds a gateway and the devices in a mesh network together. The profile will contain a mesh ID that is used when forming the associations. All devices, including the gateway, require a common profile.

2. Distribute the profile. Distribute the profile to every device that will be a part of the mesh. This will enable all the devices that have that profile to form associative links when the mesh is formed.

3. Form the mesh. The mesh cannot be formed until the profile is assigned to the gateway and distributed to its devices.

These steps may be performed with or without using SWIFT Tools.

2.8.1 Configuration and Programming Without Using SWIFT Tools

This section explains the configuration of the gateway using only a magnet and a screw driver. For configuration instructions using SWIFT Tools, refer to Section 2.8.2.

There are two ways to provide a gateway with a profile without using SWIFT Tools.

 Create a new profile using the gateway.

 Assign a previously created profile to the gateway using a distributor.

Create a New Profile

To create a unique profile in the gateway without using SWIFT Tools:

SWIFT™ Wireless Manual — Form Number 95-8544-2 P/N LS10036-000XL-E:C 5/8/2015 17

XLS-WSG Wireless System Gateway Configuration and Programming

1. Start with the gateway powered off. The profile creation process is performed during start-up.

2. Power on the gateway using SLC power or external +24V. Refer to Sections 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 for more information.

3. Ensure that the gateway is in the factory default state. If the gateway is in the factory default state, both the LEDs on the gateway will double blink red every second for ten seconds. If the LEDs are yellow, refer to “Remove a Profile” on page 18.

4. Activate either magnetic sensor with a magnet within ten seconds of starting up the gateway while the double red blink is active on the gateway. Refer to Section 2.4, “Magnet Sensors” for further information on activating magnetic sensors. The LED next to the magnetic sensor emits a red light for one second when it is activated. If the ten second window is missed, power down the gateway and repeat the process starting at step 1.

A profile has been created successfully; the LEDs on the gateway will light green and stay on steady for ten seconds. The profile has been created containing a mesh ID and a default password. The default password is ‘12345’ and is needed if the gateway is locked by the FACP and later accessed by SWIFT Tools.

Immediately after successful profile creation, the gateway starts the profile distribution mode. Refer to Section 2.8.3 for further information on profile distribution mode.

Assign a Previously Created Profile Using a Distributor

Instead of creating a new profile, an existing profile can be distributed by a device with an existing profile. To distribute the existing profile:

1. Ensure that the gateway or other mesh device with the profile is set for distribution. Refer to Section 2.8.3, “Profile Distribution” or Section 3.5.2, “Distributor Mode”.

2. Bring the profile distributor within 20 feet of the gateway.

3. 10 seconds after the initial start-up, the LEDs on the gateway switch from a double red blink to a single red blink. The single red blink indicated the gateway is ready.

4. Use a magnet to activate either of the magnetic sensors. The LED will blink a single red every half-second indicating that it is searching for a profile.

When the profile is successfully received from the distributor, the LEDs on the gateway will turn on green steady for five seconds.

Remove a Profile

To remove a profile from a gateway:

1. Start with the gateway powered off. The process is performed during start-up.

2. Power on the gateway using SLC power or external +24V. Refer to Sections 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 for more information.

3. Verify the gateway is in the profile modification state. The gateway is in the profile modification state when both the LEDs on the gateway double blink yellow every second for ten seconds.

4. Activate both magnetic sensors on the gateway within ten seconds of start-up while the double yellow blink is active. If the ten second window is missed, power down the gateway and repeat the process starting at step 1.

The LEDs on the gateway will blink green every second for five seconds indicating that the profile is removed.

Create a Mesh Network

The gateway communicates with all devices in range that have a common profile and establishes communication links with all the devices. This creates a mesh network. Once a device joins the mesh, that device acts as a repeater for devices out of the range of the gateway. All devices must be

Configuration and Programming XLS-WSG Wireless System Gateway

Figure 2.8 Creating or Importing a Profile

createprofile.wmf

in their final mounting locations prior to initiating the mesh formation. The mesh formation is initiated by the gateway upon user activation and terminated by the gateway when all possible devices join the network or when terminated by the user.

To form a mesh network, ensure that the gateway is powered on and contains a profile. (Refer to Section 2.5 on page 12 for information on how the gateway indicates its status). Activate the “Mesh Formation” magnet sensor on the gateway. Refer to Figure 2.2 for sensor location.

The gateway will then transition to the mesh formation mode and establish communication with all the devices containing a common profile. The blink pattern on the gateway indicates that it is in mesh formation mode. At this stage, both the LEDs on the gateway will blink twice every 7 seconds.

• The first blink is green and the second blink is red when the gateway is acting as a profile distributor and forming the mesh.

• The first blink is green and the second blink is yellow when the gateway is only forming the mesh.

Mesh formation typically takes one minute for each device in the mesh. Mesh formation automatically terminates 10 minutes after the last device joins the mesh. Mesh formation can be terminated manually by the user by again activating the mesh formation magnetic sensor.

Once the mesh formation is complete, the network automatically transitions to restructure the mesh. For operating instructions, refer to Section 2.9, “Operations”.

2.8.2 Configuration and Programming Using SWIFT Tools

2.9 Operations

2.9.1 Modes of Operation

22 SWIFT™ Wireless Manual — Form Number 95-8544-2 P/N LS10036-000XL-E:C 5/8/2015

Operations XLS-WSG Wireless System Gateway

Start-up Mode

Start-up mode is a temporary mode of operation. During start-up mode a profile can be created or removed. The start-up period lasts for 10 seconds. If a particular unit contains a profile, the LEDs double blink yellow every second. If the unit does not contain a profile, the LEDs double blink red every second.

During start-up, the gateway does not provide fire protection nor does it respond to the FACP.

After start-up, the gateway proceeds to the factory default mode if no profile exists. In the presence of a profile, the gateway will proceed to mesh formation mode if it was previously part of a mesh network or normal mode if it was not previously part of a mesh network.

Factory Default Mode

Factory default mode is the initial mode of the gateway. In this mode, the gateway and peripheral devices do not provide any fire protection. The gateway does not communicate with wireless detectors or modules in factory default mode. The only wireless communication in factory default mode is between the gateway and SWIFT Tools. SWIFT Tools must be within 20 feet of the gateway for proper communication. The gateway must be assigned a profile before continuing configuration.

The gateway reports a ‘PROFILE MISSING' or ‘PR MIS’ trouble to the FACP. The gateway reports “Factory Default” to the communicator display of SWIFT Tools.

Profile Configured

The gateway enters the profile configured mode once a profile is assigned by SWIFT Tools or a distributor; or after creating a profile using the magnetic sensor. Profile configured mode is a temporary mode before the gateway transitions to mesh formation or normal mode.

The gateway does not provide fire protection in the profile configured mode. While in the profile configured mode, the gateway reports a "MESH NOT FORMED" or "NO MSH" trouble to the FACP. The gateway reports “Profile Assigned” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

Mesh Formation

The gateway must have a profile before entering mesh formation mode. The gateway and the peripheral devices do not provide any fire protection in this mode. The gateway enters mesh formation mode:

 after creating a profile using the mesh formation sensor.

 after activating the mesh formation sensor with a magnet when the gateway contains a

profile.

 automatically after start-up when the gateway was previously part of a mesh.

 by a command from the SWIFT Tools application.

 by a command from the FACP.

A gateway in mesh formation mode instructs all devices in the mesh to also transition to mesh formation mode. The gateway and all communicating devices search for new or lost devices with the same profile to join the network.

If the gateway automatically entered mesh formation after start-up, mesh formation will terminate 10 minutes after the last device has joined or after all existing devices are recovered. If new devices are found or if mesh formation was initiated by the user, then mesh formation terminates after a period of 10 minutes without any new devices joining the mesh. At any point Mesh formation can be terminated by user interaction by activating the magnet sensor again, by using the SWIFT Tools application, or by using the FACP.

The gateway reports a “NO WIRELESS DEVS” or “NO DEV” trouble when it is in Mesh Formation mode without any attached devices. The gateway reports a “MESH IS FORMING” or “MS FRM” trouble when it is mesh formation mode with additional devices in the mesh. The gateway reports “Mesh Formation” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

SWIFT™ Wireless Manual — Form Number 95-8544-2 P/N LS10036-000XL-E:C 5/8/2015 23

XLS-WSG Wireless System Gateway Operations

Initial Mesh Restructuring Mode

Initial mesh restructuring mode automatically runs after each mesh formation. The gateway and peripheral devices do not provide fire protection during the initial mesh restructuring mode. Mesh restructuring analyzes signal strengths between devices. The gateway designates the primary and secondary communication paths between devices that provide a redundant path for all transmissions. Mesh restructuring automatically terminates once all devices have a redundant communication path and signal strengths that meet the requirements of primary and secondary transmission paths. Any device that does not have a redundant path or meet the requirements for signal strength will report a fault.

The gateway reports a ‘RESTRUCTURING’ or ‘RSTRCT’ trouble to the FACP. The gateway reports “Restructuring” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

Normal Mode

Normal mode is the network’s standard operating state. The mesh network has been formed and is providing fire protection. The mesh network will continuously search for additional devices with a matching profile to join the mesh. To avoid interference, the mesh network periodically checks for adjacent mesh networks created by Honeywell. The gateway reports “Normal” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

Rescue Mode

During normal mode, if an out-of-network device with a matching profile is discovered by the network, the gateway will trigger rescue mode in all communicating devices. All devices in communication continue to provide fire protection during rescue mode but also search for a lost or added device. Rescue mode automatically terminates 3 minutes after the last device is rescued and returns to normal mode. The gateway does not report troubles during rescue mode but reports “Rescue” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

Mesh Restructuring Mode

In addition to the initial mesh restructuring mode, mesh restructuring is automatically performed after any restoration of communication to a device or to recover from a link failure (Class A fault). Mesh restructuring that occurs during normal mode does not generate a trouble message. During mesh restructuring, fire protection is provided by all devices that are participating in the mesh communication. The gateway reports “Restructuring” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

Bootloader Mode

The gateway enters the bootloader mode when its firmware is being updated using SWIFT Tools. The gateway does not communicate with the FACP during bootloader mode. The gateway reports “Bootloader” to the communicator display of the SWIFT Tools application.

2.9.2 LED Patterns

The LED indicator patterns are provided in Appendix D on page 59.

2.9.3 Lock/Unlock the Gateway

The gateway can be locked to prevent access to the magnetic sensors and to password-protect all wireless interactions. The lock function can be performed by SWIFT Tools or by the FACP. When SWIFT Tools is used to lock the gateway, a password must be provided for all future interactions, including unlocking the gateway. When the gateway is locked by the FACP for the first time, a default password of “12345” is applied. If the gateway was previously locked with a password from SWIFT Tools, the previous password will be applied. Use this password for all future interactions with the SWIFT Tools application.

The SWIFT Network technology shares the RF spectrum with other Honeywell Wireless Sensor Network systems. Honeywell has established a limit of 4 overlapping networks to avoid congestion in the RF spectrum. If the 4 network limit is exceeded, a system trouble will be generated by the system that detects 4 or more adjacent networks. To resolve this trouble, the instances of overlap need to be removed. Refer to Appendix C:, "Troubleshooting and Testing" for suggestions on removing overlap between wireless networks. The trouble will be self-restoring up to 36 hours after the condition is resolved. To expedite the trouble resolution, toggle the network that is reporting the trouble in and out of mesh formation mode.

2.9.8 Avoiding RF Interference

The SWIFT wireless mesh network uses radio frequency hopping spread spectrum technology to communicate in the 900 MHz ISM band (902MHz to 928MHz). Other commercial and industrial products also operate in this band. If two-way radios or other wireless communication devices are used during the installation process, it is recommended that they be kept at least 4 feet away from the Honeywell wireless devices or that they operate on a different frequency band to ensure rapid mesh formation.

A properly installed SWIFT wireless mesh network with primary link reporting enabled will be highly immune to RF interference from other wireless products even when they are nearby. The use of the weak link reporting feature is highly recommended. If the system is installed in a controlled environment where other 900 MHz ISM band devices will not be present, the primary link reporting feature may be disabled to permit greater distances between installed devices if required.

The SWIFT wireless mesh network will be able to automatically detect and avoid certain types of in-band channel interference (often caused by two-way radios) by using an alternate channel set. The system will log detection and avoidance of this kind of interference in the gateway history as “Walkie Talkie Mode” Entry or Exit and in the XLS3000 history as Alternate Channel Set or Normal Channel Set.

Assigning a Profile to a Device (Detector or Module) Using a Gateway or Distributor

A gateway that has a profile can be used to distribute that profile to other devices. The gateway must be in distributor mode before it can distribute a profile. For more information on converting a gateway to a distributor, refer to Section 2.8.3. A device with a profile can be used to distribute the profile. To put a device into distributor mode, refer to topic, “Converting a Device into a Distributor” on page 37.

 Distribute a Profile from a Gateway/Distributor to a Detector

To transfer a profile from a gateway/distributor to a detector:

1. Bring the detector within 20 feet of the gateway/distributor.

2. Power on the detector. Ensure the detector is in factory default state. The LED on the detector will single-blink or double-blink red confirming that it is in the factory default state.

3. Activate the magnet test switch shown in the figure below. Once the magnet sensor has been activated, the LED blinks red every half second indicating that it is requesting a profile. If the profile is successfully received, the green LED turns on steady for 10 seconds. If the profile is not received within 1 minute, the LED blinks red every ten seconds indicating that it has stopped requesting a profile.

 Distribute a Profile from a Gateway/Distributor to a Module

To transfer a profile from a gateway/distributor to a module:

1. Bring the detector within 20 feet of the gateway/distributor.

2. Power on the module. Ensure the module is in factory default state. If the module is in factory default state, the LED blinks red once.

3. Toggle the state of the tamper condition to instruct the module to request a profile. To toggle the tamper condition state, start with the faceplate removed.

4. Quickly replace then remove the faceplate from the module. Do not attach the mounting screws for the faceplate during this step. The LED blinks red every half second indicating that it is requesting a profile. The green LEDs turn on steady for ten seconds indicating that the profile has been assigned. If the profile is not received within 1 minute, the LED blinks red every ten seconds indicating that it has stopped requesting a profile.

3.6 Device Operations

3.6.1 Modes of Operation

Factory Default Mode

In this mode, the devices are not associated with the gateway. A profile must be assigned to associate the device with the gateway. For further information on assigning a profile, refer to “Assigning a Profile to a Device (Detector or Module) Using a Gateway or Distributor” on page 35. A device cannot perform any fire protection in the factory default state. In default mode, the devices will be viewable in the communicator window of SWIFT Tools with the state displayed as “Factory Default”. A device in factory default can be used for site survey.

Site Survey Mode

A site survey assesses and qualifies a site for installing a SWIFT network. The site survey view in SWIFT Tools gives the Radio Frequency (RF) assessment of the site. The tool reports the suggested device spacing based on the data collected during the site survey. This helps to improve the reliability and performance of a SWIFT network in the wireless fire alarm system. A device cannot perform any fire protection in the site survey mode. A device that is ready to enter site survey will indicate “pending site survey” in the communicator section of SWIFT Tools. A device in site survey will not communicate with SWIFT Tools and will be listed as “offline” in the communicator section. For more information on performing a site survey, refer to Appendix B.

Profile Assigned Mode

In this mode, devices are associated with the gateway but are not active participants in the mesh network. A device that is not in the tampered state can join a mesh network in formation or during rescue mode. For further information on mesh formation, refer to “Mesh Formation Mode” on page 40. For more information on rescue mode, refer to “Rescue Mode” on page 40. A device with an assigned profile can also be used to distribute profiles. Refer to Section 3.5.2.

Devices are not enabled for fire protection until they become part of a mesh network. A device will show an invalid reply or no answer at the FACP.

In this mode, devices are viewable in the communicator window of SWIFT Tools. If the device has a profile and is in the tampered state, it will indicate a status as “Profile Assigned-Tamper”. A nontampered device will indicate “active scan” as it searches for a mesh network.

Wireless Devices Device Operations

Bootloader Mode

In this mode, a device is ready for an update. It cannot participate in a mesh network and cannot provide fire protection. The device is viewable in the communicator window of SWIFT Tools with the status “Bootloader”. To remove a device from bootloader mode, refer to Appendix C.

Distributor Mode

In this mode, a device is functioning as a profile distributor. The device cannot participate in a mesh network and cannot provide fire protection while it is in distributor mode. A device in distributor mode will be used as a mobile unit to share the profile with other devices. The distributing device will be available in the communicator window of the SWIFT Tools with the status “Distributor”. For more information, refer to Section 3.5.2.

Mesh Participant Modes

Devices that are in the mesh network no longer communicate directly with SWIFT Tools. SWIFT Tools must communicate with the gateway for status information on a device. The gateway will respond to the FACP for the device at the address set with the SLC rotary address wheels.

 Mesh Formation Mode

In this mode, a device is an active participant in a mesh that is forming. The LED will blink green then yellow every 7 seconds. The device cannot perform any fire protection in this state. The device responds to its SLC address with a “INIT MODE” or “INIT” trouble. For further information on mesh formation mode, refer to “Section 3.5.3”.

 Initial Mesh Restructuring Mode

In this mode, the mesh network is formed and is in the process of establishing stronger communication paths. The LED will blink yellow every 6.8 seconds. The device cannot perform any fire protection in this state. The device responds to its SLC address with a “DEVICE INIT” or “INIT” trouble.

 Normal Mode

In normal mode, the mesh network is formed and provides fire protection. The LED will blink green every 14 seconds. The LED flash can be disabled by panel configuration. If a device is in trouble, it is indicated by the trouble messages. For information on trouble messages, refer to Section 3.6.3.

 Rescue Mode

In rescue mode, a devices is an active participant of a mesh network. It will search and retrieve any device that has lost communication with the network. Rescue mode is indicated by a green LED blink every 7 seconds.

3.6.2 LED Indicators

The two LEDs on the devices blink in the same pattern to allow the LEDs to be viewed from any angle. The LED indicators are provided in Appendix D on page 59.

3.6.3 Trouble Conditions

The following trouble conditions are unique to the battery powered RF devices. Multiple troubles states may be active for a single device, but only the highest priority trouble event will be displayed.

Trouble Conditions with Fire Protection

The devices (on an XLS3000 only) indicate the following trouble conditions with a single yellow LED blink every 14 seconds. The wireless device will still perform fire protection during the following trouble states.

40 SWIFT™ Wireless Manual — Form Number 95-8544-2 P/N LS10036-000XL-E:C 5/8/2015

Device Operations Wireless Devices



Low Battery

The low battery event denotes:

• The device has a minimum of one week power left to perform the required operations.

• One (or more) of the batteries is missing or dead.

The low battery event is a latching condition. To clear the low battery event, tamper the device and replace all the four batteries. When a device is tampered, it drops out of the mesh network and attempts to rejoin as soon as the batteries are replaced and the tamper event is cleared. If the device has dropped from the mesh prior to the tamper event, a system reset has to be issued to clear the low battery trouble. The panel displays “BATTERY LOW” or “BAT LOW” during a low battery condition.

 Weak Link

The weak link trouble denotes a connection of insufficient primary parent link signal strength. To resolve a weak link, reduce the distance between devices, place them away from obstructions, or add a repeater. Tamper the device when moving it to a new location. Restart mesh formation after a repeater is installed or after a device has been relocated and the tamper condition is cleared. Terminate mesh formation once the devices have joined the mesh or allow mesh formation to timeout. Restructuring will automatically start and the gateway will reevaluate the link connectivity between all devices and select suitable signal paths.

Weak link trouble reporting can be disabled at the FACP or at the gateway for installations not requiring primary link connectivity. Refer to Section 2.9.4 for more information on disabling weak link trouble reporting. Refer to the troubleshooting section for more information on resolving a weak link condition.

The panel displays “WEAK LINK FAULT” or “WEAK” for a device that is in the weak link condition.

 Class A Fault

The Class A fault denotes a single connection path from the device. The wireless system is a Class A system requiring two communication paths for normal operations. To remedy the Class A fault, ensure adequate device spacing. The use of a repeater may be required. The wireless mesh is a self-healing network. If the trouble is not cleared within 5 minutes, additional actions may be required. Refer to the troubleshooting section for tips on resolving Class A fault conditions.

The panel will display “CLASS A FAULT” or “CL A” during a Class A fault condition.

Trouble States without Fire Protection

 Jamming

Jamming occurs when a device is overloaded with an interfering RF signal but is able to send outgoing messages. A jamming event is detected after 20 seconds of exposure to the jamming signal. In the event of jamming, the device will drop from the mesh network. The panel displays “RADIO JAMMING” or “JAM” during a jamming condition.

 Duplicate Address

Two wireless devices on the same mesh network that are set to the same address will report a duplicate address trouble at the FACP. The gateway will respond to the panel with the device type of the first device to join.

The panel displays “DUAL ADDR” or “DUALAD” during a duplicate address condition.

 Tamper

A tamper trouble indicates that a detector is not firmly attached to its base or the cover plate is not properly attached to a module. The tamper condition is annunciated in the following ways:

SWIFT™ Wireless Manual — Form Number 95-8544-2 P/N LS10036-000XL-E:C 5/8/2015 41

Wireless Devices Device Operations

Device Indication The yellow LED on the device turns on steady for 4 seconds followed by a blink pattern of yellow, yellow, red every 15 seconds immediately after the tamper condition.

Panel Indication Devices that are in the tampered condition report a latching trouble event. The event is active for 180 seconds before it can be removed with a system reset. Once the event is removed, the device reports a “NO ANSWER” or “INVREP” until the device is restored or the point is removed from the database.

Clearing the Tamper To clear the tamper,

• For a detector, ensure that the detector is locked together with its base.

• For a module, ensure that there is a magnet in the cover plate and it is securely fastened to the device in the correct orientation.

Once the tamper event is cleared, the LEDs in the device turn on steady for 2.5 seconds, in the following color patterns that denote the battery status.

• Green - All the four batteries are installed and fresh. The device has a minimum one year of normal operation.

• Yellow - All the four batteries are installed, and one or more is no longer fresh. This device has between a minimum of 1 month and 1 year of operation.

• Red - One or more of the batteries are low in power and/or the device has a minimum of one week of operation.

After the device displays the current battery condition, it attempts to join the mesh network in the rescue mode or normal mode. This is indicated by a double yellow blink every 3.4 seconds. If a device does not find its mesh in the rescue mode, it searches for its mesh under formation. This is indicated by a double yellow blink every 20 seconds.

 No Answer

A device that is not in the mesh, displays a “NO ANSWER”, “NO ANS”, or “INVREP” message at the FACP. Follow the steps in “Mesh Formation Mode” on page 40 to have a device join the mesh.

 Device Initialization

A device reports a device initialization trouble when it is part of a mesh network but is not capable of performing fire protection. This is the case for mesh networks that are still forming or going through initial restructuring. The panel displays “INIT MODE” or “INIT” during a device initialization condition.

3.6.4 Background Events

The following conditions are not considered a trouble, supervisory, or alarm condition. These events are stored in the history of the XLS3000 FACP only.

Pre-Class A Fault

A device will report a pre-Class A event when it first identifies a single connection path condition. If the connection path is not restored or replaced with another viable connection path within 180 seconds, a Class A fault condition will be reported. The history event reports this condition as “PRE-CLASS A FAULT”.

Device Drop

A device will report a device drop if it has lost complete communication with the mesh network. If the device does not recover in 180 seconds or less, a “NO ANSWER” or “INVREP” trouble is reported for the address. The history event will report as a “DEVICE DROPPED”.

Weak Link

When weak link reporting is enabled by the gateway and disabled in the FACP, then all weak link conditions will be entered as background events in history. The history event is reported as a “WEAK LINK FAULT” or “WEAK” for a device that is in the weak link condition.

Appendix B: Site Survey

A site survey is recommended to assess and qualify the site prior to installing a SWIFT network. The site survey consists of a link quality test and RF scan test. After both tests are completed, the results of the site survey can be obtained using SWIFT Tools. The information provided by SWIFT Tools is used for site qualification, maximum device spacing identification, and configuring the network. This helps to improve the reliability and performance of the wireless network in the wireless fire alarm system.

B.1 Conduct a Site Survey

B.1.1 Link Quality Test

A link quality test is a quick and repeatable test that provides immediate feedback on device connectivity. The link quality test sends data from one device to another to test for data loss and measure the signal strength. In a link test, the device addresses are set in the range of 001 to 150. A minimum of two devices are needed to conduct a link quality test.

A link test is conducted between two or more devices. The link test starts when a device that is in the “pending site survey” state has its tamper condition cleared. The device will send a burst of data to the next address lower than its own address. The lower addressed device will automatically return the link quality test results for display using the device LEDs. For example, clearing the tamper condition on a detector set to address 2 (D002) will make the detector enter the link quality test. D002 will send a burst of data to a device at address 001 (either detector or module). The device at address 001 will measure the signal strength and count the data received in the burst and return the information to D002. The results of the test will be displayed at D002. The test can be repeated by tampering D002 to return it to the “pending site survey” mode and then clearing the tamper.

Basic Requirements of a Link Quality Test

To conduct a link test:

 two or more devices (detectors) are required.

 devices must be in factory default state. The LEDs on the device will blink single or double

red to confirm it is in the factory default state. Refer to Section 3.5.4 on page 38 for more information on setting the device to factory default state.

 device addresses can bet set in the range of 1 to 150.

Conduct a Link Quality Test

To conduct a link quality test:

1. Remove the batteries from the devices that will be used for the site survey and set the SLC address. To set an SLC address, use a common screwdriver to adjust the rotary switches on the device.

a. For the first device used in a site survey, set the SLC address to 001.

b. For each subsequent device, use the next highest SLC address (up to address 150). For

example, the first device was set to 001, set the second device to 002, and the third device to 003, etc.

2. Bring the first device (001) to the first location to conduct the test.

3. Insert one battery into the device. Inserting more than one battery deters the device from entering the site survey mode. The device is ready for site survey mode if the LED blinks red twice

every 5 seconds.

4. Clear the tamper condition to proceed with the test. To clear the tamper condition on a detector, insert the detector into the base and twist to lock the detector completely into the base. To clear the tamper condition on a module, attach the faceplate to the module. When the tamper is cleared, the LEDs on the device starts blinking yellow every ½ second for approximately 20

Site Survey Conduct a Site Survey

seconds. The results appear in approximately 20 seconds and the LEDs on the first device change to solid red. This is due to the absence of a lower-addressed device with which to form a pair. This result is expected from the 1st device when a link quality test is performed.

5. Bring the second device (002) to the second location and repeat steps 3 and 4.

6. The device will conduct a link test to the next lowest address; in this case device 001. The result of the link test from 002 to 001 is displayed by the LEDs on device 002. Refer to Table B.1 below.

7. Once the link test is complete between 002 and 001, continue for address 003, 004, etc. for all devices that will be used in the site survey. This test may be repeated any number of times. For devices addressed to 101 or higher, the test must be repeated, if desired, within five minutes of the last concluded test or the devices will start an RF scan test.

Results of a Link Quality Test

The following table explains the LED patterns before and during a link quality test.

State Pattern LED Results & Description

Site survey pending Double blink every 5 seconds Red Device is tampered, ready and waiting

to start a site survey link quality test

Link quality test in progress Single blink every ½ seconds Yellow Transmission of data to another device.

Link quality test complete On steady Red Failure - no data received

Link quality test complete Single blink every 5 seconds Red Poor - partial data received or signal

strength measured lower than the acceptable limit for a primary or secondary link (-81dBm or lower)

Link quality test complete 2 blinks every 5 seconds Green Marginal - all data received at a signal

strength acceptable for a secondary link but not for a primary link (-66dBm to

-80dBm)

Link quality test complete 3 blinks every 5 seconds Green Good - all data received at a signal

Link quality test complete 4 blinks every 5 seconds Green Excellent - all data received at a signal

strength acceptable for a secondary link and marginally acceptable for a primary link (-51dBm to -65dBm)

strength acceptable for a primary link (-50dBm or better)

Table B.1 LED Patterns of Link Quality Test Results

The LED pattern for a link quality test will continue to be displayed until the device is tampered or the batteries die for a device that is addressed 100 or lower. For devices addressed 101 to 150, the result will be displayed until the device starts the RF Scan.

To repeat the link quality test, toggle the tamper state. To toggle the tamper state on a detector, twist the detector in the base counter-clockwise as if removing the detector from the base, then twist it back in clockwise to lock it in. To toggle the tamper state on a module, remove the faceplate and then reconnect it. Once the device is tampered, it will return to the pending site survey state. Once the tamper is cleared, the link quality test will be restarted. Only the results for the last link quality test are retained.

After a Link Quality Test

Retrieve the link quality test results for devices 001-100. To retrieve the site survey results, refer to the topicB.1.3, "Retrieving Site Survey Results"at the end of this section. For devices 101-150, wait to retrieve the link quality results until the device starts an RF Scan test.

Conduct a Site Survey Site Survey

B.1.2 RF Scan Test

A Radio Frequency scan test is conducted to assess and measure the background noise and interference from other wireless systems if any, in the site. The RF Scan test can be conducted individually or following the link quality test. An RF Scan test will be conducted for any device with an SLC address set between 101 and 150 at the end of a Link Quality Test.

Conduct an RF Scan Test

To conduct an RF scan test, follow the same procedure for a link quality test. However, the device addresses for an RF scan test must start at 101 and have the subsequent devices address set as 102, 103, etc. Each device will conduct the link quality test as described above, then transition to the RF scan test 5 minutes after the last link quality test is performed to or from that device.

If several devices are being tested, it is possible that some devices will start and complete the link test and progress to the RF scan test while other devices are finishing the link quality test. The RF Scan test may take up to 70 minutes. The time remaining and the test status are displayed at the device using the LEDs. The LED patterns are shown below.

Status of an RF Scan Test

State Pattern LED Status

In Progress- 70 minutes remaining 7 short blinks every 30 seconds

C.1 Troubleshooting

Problem Description Action

Class A fault condition Device has a single parent connection, and is

missing the redundant class A connection.

Jamming Jamming occurs when a device is overloaded

with an interfering RF signal and is unable to process incoming messages, but is able to report the condition to its parents.

Low battery One or more of the four batteries are

missing/dead and/or the device has a minimum of one week of operation remaining.

Duplicate address/ Illegal address

Mesh formation does not find all devices

Mesh restructuring does not end

Devices drop during operation

Two or more wireless devices on the same mesh network that are set to the same address report a duplicate address trouble. An address set to zero will report an illegal address.

A device does not connect to the gateway/mesh network

The gateway/mesh network appears to be stuck in mesh restructuring

A device drop event is indicated in history. Device drop is the predecessor to a No Answer/Invalid

If a suitable parent is available, the background mesh restructuring routine should self-heal the network. If the network does not self-heal after ten minutes, reduce spacing between devices or utilize SWIFT Tools for suggested repeater placement to add stronger parents. Toggle mesh formation to trigger a mesh restructuring routine to re-evaluate the trouble condition after taking action.

A jammed device will automatically remove itself from the mesh network after reporting the jamming. The device will attempt to self-heal and recover into the network. Identify any possible sources of the jamming signal and see if the spacing from the device to the jamming source can be increased to an acceptable range. A site survey RF scan test can be used to categorize the jamming signal.

To clear the low battery event, tamper the device and replace all four batteries. When a device is tampered, it drops out of the mesh network and attempts to rejoin as soon as the batteries are replaced and the tamper event is cleared. Once a low battery trouble is indicated there is a minimum of one week of operation before the device is non-functional.

Change the address of the device(s) to avoid duplication and error.

Verify the device has a profile. Verify that the profile matches the profile in the gateway. Two different profiles may use the same mesh ID. Remove and re-profile the device to guarantee the correct profile. Verify the device is powered and the tamper condition is cleared. Check the device spacing and the range from the device to the mesh. A site survey link test can be used to verify connectivity from one location to another.

Use SWIFT Tools or panel history to investigate for the presence of walkie talkie interference or unstable devices (dropping and joining). Walkie talkie interference will prohibit restructuring from fully executing. Devices joining a mesh will delay the restructuring event.

reply trouble. Inspect the area for any changes to the environment that could block radio communication. Use a site survey RF Scan to check for any interference and use a site survey link test to check the connectivity from the device to its closest neighbor.

Use the network statistics provided by SWIFT Tools to identify the interfering networks and the nature of the fault. The networks will be listed by a unique number; this is not the serial number of the gateway. One or more of the systems will need to be powered down to clear the fault. Where possible, maximize the number of devices on a mesh network to reduce the number of total mesh networks; i.e. use one mesh network with 50 devices instead of two mesh networks with 25 each. Restructure the layout of the mesh networks to group devices and the gateway to avoid overlap. It may take 36 hours for the fault to clear. This can be expedited by toggling the state of mesh formation.

Verify the tamper condition is cleared. Use mesh formation to have the device rejoin the mesh network. Low battery and tamper are both latching conditions. Ensure a reset has been initiated to clear those events.

Use the network statistics provided in SWIFT Tools to see the battery voltage measured for each individual battery. Verify that each battery is present and at a suitable voltage level. The low battery trouble is a latching trouble, ensure a reset has been initiated since the replacement.

The lower addressed device must complete its link test before the device at the next higher address starts the link test. Verify the devices are in range of each other.

The device does not have any site survey results to be imported. It has not found a link during the link test and/or it has not collected any data for an RF Scan.

Verify the device or gateway is powered on and in a state that supports SWIFT Tools communication. For instance, a device in the mesh network does not communicate to SWIFT Tools. It communicates to the gateway. A device that has completed a site survey does not communicate to SWIFT Tools until it returns to the pending site survey state or factory default state. Move the Adapter in range of gateway/devices.

USB adapter is connected, and the scan is on. SWIFT Tools processes the messages faster with multiple devices in range. If only one device is in range it can take up to 1 minute for the scan to detect the device.
