Overview
Note: The control panels described in this manual have been designed and developed to the highest
standards of quality, reliability and performance. All product components are capable to application
requirements and able to operate in compliance with the related technical specifications when the
temperature external to their casing complies with Category 3k5 of EN60721-3-3:1995.
Danger: The GAS control function is not provided for in the aforesaid standard and therefore cannot
be considered EN54-2 compliant.
Danger: In order to validate the IMQ-SECURITY SYSTEMS certification, and in compliance with EN54-
2, all the manual alarm buttons and fire detectors employed in the system must be
associated with fire detection and alarm functions.
1.1 Application and use
The SmartLight analogue-addressable fire alarm panel manages a single loop that accommodates different
types of fire-security devices (detectors, input modules, outputs, callpoints, fire bells, sirens, etc.). The
maximum loop wire length is 2000 m.
The SmartLight provides supervised outputs which ensure full device functionality. The panel identifies and
signals alarm, pre-alarm, fault, early warning, bypassed zone, test and monitoring conditions.
The system status is indicated on the display and on the system status LEDs. The SmartLight panel
supports up to 4 repeater panels (accessory items) which replicate system data and allow building
occupants with Level 2 authorization to silence and reset the system. The panel also accepts an
extinguishant module (accessory item) that allows it to manage a gas extinguishant system.
The self-addressing feature and reduced-complexity point programming allow fast and easy installation.

Overview 5
Installation and programming manual
[A] Loop
All the peripheral devices of the system must be connected in parallel to the loop circuit (2 pole STP). The
loop is a closed electrical circuit in which a wide variety of alarm devices can be accommodated. Opening or
closing the circuit at any point will generate a fault signal. The loop circuit communication path starts on
the Loop-Out terminals and ends on the Loop-In terminals. The panel controls and communicates with the
loop devices via digital protocol. The loop utilizes the same two poles for the power supply to the system
devices and the two-way communication channel. The loop accommodates:
1. Detectors: A smoke detector is an active fire protection device that detects smoke or flames and issues an alarm
thereby alerting building occupants to the danger of fire. Detectors can be:
- Optical smoke detectors which look for the presence of visible by-products of combustion in the detection chamber
(Tyndall effect).
- Optical/Heat detectors which operate as per optical smoke detectors but also sense for increase in the environment
temperature. The combination of both sensing methods (smoke and heat) provides faster detection and reduces
the false alarm rate.
- Heat detectors: sense for an increase in the temperature in the protected environment. There are two types of
heat detector: Fixed temperature — that signal alarm when the temperature exceeds the predefined threshold;
and Rate-of-rise — that as well as monitoring the predefined fixed temperature also respond to rapid increase in
temperature.
- Ionization smoke detectors: feature a harmless radioactive source within a dual detection chamber. They operate
by sensing for a change in electrical conductivity across the detection chamber.
- CO detectors: sense the levels of carbon monoxide given off by all carbon-based materials in the smouldering
stages of a fire (often combined with heat detection sensor).
2. Input Module: a device which monitors the status of another device (callpoint, detector, etc.) and sends the
respective information to the panel. The Input module allows the loop to accommodate any type of device.
3. Output Module: provides a supervised ancillary output. The cause of activation can be defined during the system
configuration phase. Allows you to interface all types of devices to the loop (e.g. bells, signaling devices, fire door
magnets, etc.).
4. Callpoint: a clearly indicated fire button with instructions for use in the event of fire. Usually located near the
entrance/exit of the protected building. These push-button alarm-trigger devices allow building occupants to
activate system alarms.
5. Sounders/flashers: audible/visual signaling devices.
Note: Sounders and flashers can also be connected directly to the control panel outputs [E].
For the list of the devices the loop accommodates, and for details regarding their wiring and operating
principles, refer to Appendix A - Enea series devices, Appendix B - Argus Devices and Appendix C - Apollo
devices.
The loop circuit configuration (as required by the local Fire code in force) is a fault-tolerant circuit which, in
the event of short-circuit or loop interruption, allows the panel to continue to communicate and drive the
elements on either side of the interruption.
Isolator
In order to ensure a fault-tolerant loop circuit that is Fire code compliant, isolators must be installed in
series with the loop circuit. Isolators modules detect short-circuit conditions and consequently interrupt the
loop circuit. If a short-circuit occurs, the two isolators adjacent to the shorted section will open and split the
loop in such way as to allow the panel to drive the elements on either side of the interruption. No more
than 32 detectors/devices should be installed between two isolator modules.
Note: Many detectors/devices have built-in isolators and therefore do not require isolator modules. Refer to
Appendix A - Enea series devices, Appendix B - Argus Devices and Appendix C - Apollo devices for
further details.
[B] SmartLetUSee/LCD-Lite repeater (accessory item)
This optional system enhancement tool (equipped with keypad, LEDs, fast buttons and display) replicates
all the system data. The panel supports 4 repeaters which can be connected to RS485 BUS (maximum
cable length 1000m from panel). Repeaters are usually located near the entrance/exit of the protected
building, in order to allow users to view the system status without going too far inside the building.
6 Overview
Installation and programming manual
[C] SmartLevel power-supply stations (accessory items)
The SmartLevel is the ideal power source for all devices located in the area protected by the detection
system. Its internal board satisfies all EN54 requirements and provides complete supervision of the power
station. The device can be connected to the control panel loop via an input/output module (not included),
installed inside the box, or by means of the RS485 BUS, thus allowing the complete supervision of the
power station and control of the 3 outputs.
[D] Gas extinguishant system (optional system enhancement feature)
The panel can house and manage a gas extinguishant module (SmartLetLooseONE, optional). The Gas
extinguishant module is compliant with EN 12094-1.
[E] Sounderflashers
These audible/visual signaling devices connect to the control panel outputs and activate when specific
conditions occurs The cause of activation (alarm, pre-alarm, early warning, etc.) can be defined during the
system configuration phase.
[F] SmartLink telephone dialer
INIM's SmartLink/G and SmartLink/GP telephone dialers monitor the analogue landline and, in the event of
landline problems (line cutting, etc.) divert incoming and outgoing calls to the GSM network. The
SmartlinkP model operates solely over the PSTN line (landline).
1.2 Other parts of the system
Point: synonym and definition of a loop device (detector, etc.).
Zone: a group of points (detectors, etc.). The points can be assigned to the zones during the configuration
phase. Consult your local Fire code for the rules regulating automatic fire detection installations and for full
details regarding zone limitations.
Power Supply (Figure 22 - Connecting the Mains): a module, connected to the mains 230 Vac, that
provides a stabilized voltage @ 24 V (27.6 V) to the system and the charge source to the batteries. The
EN54-4 compliant power-supply module is housed below the motherboard. The mains voltage (230 Vac) is
the primary power source of the system. Refer also to paragraph 6.10.
Batteries: the secondary power source of the system. The panel houses two lead batteries @ 12V 7Ah
(connected in series). The system monitors the battery status (efficiency and charge). In the event of
inefficient or low battery conditions, the system will signal battery fault. If primary (230 Vac) power failure
occurs, the batteries will take over, however, they will shutdown automatically if the blackout persists. The
automatic battery shutdown feature prevents irreparable damage to the batteries. Refer also to paragraph
6.11.
Thermal probe: an accessory tool, to be connected to the panel and attached to the battery pack. This
device monitors the temperature of the external battery pack and regulates the battery charge accordingly.
Refer also to paragraph 6.12.
RS485 BUS: 4 wire BUS for the repeater connections. Four pole twisted-shielded cable must be used for
all connections. Refer also to paragraph 6.5 - Connecting the RS485 BUS.
Timer: a logical entity (the panel provides 8 timers) for automatic time-management of preset intervals (2
intervals per day) on preset days of the week and specific dates. The timers can be used in equations and/
or to manage predefined operations.
Equation: a group of logical conditions defined by the installer. An equation comprises a series of
operators (AND, OR, +, etc.) and a series of operands (Points, Zones, Timers, etc.). An equation can be
associated with an output that will activate when the equation is satisfied.
Holidays: a list of days defined during the system configuration phase that can be associated with a timer.
Early Warning: a signal generated by detectors with the early-warning feature (to be defined during the
system configuration phase). The detector senses for a value (smoke level, heat level,temperature, etc.)
which exceeds its early warning threshold (each detectors can be set separately). This signal indicates that
the person/s responsible for the safety of the building and its occupants should verify the alarm or check
the functionality of the detector concerned.

6.3 Connecting the Loop
The loop accommodates all the peripheral devices of the fire control system (detectors, callpoints,
modules, etc.), and if necessary, also a Gas Extinguishant Module. For a full description of the devices the
loop accommodates, refer to Appendix A, Appendix B and Appendix C.
You can use either a 2 or 4 wire connection. To create a 4 wire connection, start on the LOOP-O terminals,
connect all the system devices and re-enter on the LOOP-I terminals. 4 wire connections tolerate one
wiring fault. If loop interruption occurs, the panel will manage the section entering on the LOOP-I terminals
separately, thus splitting the loop in two separate sections.

Installation instructions 27
Installation and programming manual
6.3.1 Wiring
1. Use 2 pole shield twisted cable. The cable section must be compatible with the loop load (refer to
Appendix A, Appendix B and Appendix C for further details).
Attention: The maximum wire length is 2000 m.
2. Connect the cable shield to the earth terminal [3] (one end of the loop only).
3. Fire alarm wires must be separate from other power wiring circuits.
6.3.2 Loop limitations
Use suitably sectioned shielded twisted cable for the loop wiring. Connect the shield to earth using terminal
3 or 6, connect it to one end of the loop only.
In order to allow the loop to function properly, you must section the device connection cable in such way
that any voltage drop along does not exceed 8 V. The following table shows the minimum dimensions for
the loop wiring with regard the distance between the Loop-O terminals and the most distant device:
up to 500 m

6.11 Connecting the batteries
The panel box provides housing for two 12 V-7 Ah lead batteries. The two batteries must be connected in
series, in such way as to provide a 24 V current.
Using the battery terminal eyelet wire (included), insert the battery terminal bolt through the washer and
battery terminal eyelet. The actual connection must be completed during initial powerup of the control
panel (refer to paragraph 7.3).
The batteries are the secondary power supply of the system. Once powered up, the panel will charge and
monitor the batteries automatically. The battery monitoring process is as follows:
• Efficiency test
The panel checks the efficiency of the batteries by simulating load current demand at regular 60 second
intervals. If the batteries fail to meet the load current demand, the event will be signaled on the
Battery disconnected fault LED.
• Battery level test
In the event of mains failure, the panel continuously monitors the battery voltage. If it drops below 22.8
V, the panel will signal the event on the
to 24.6 V.
• Deep discharge shutdown
If a mains failure event lasts for a long period, and battery voltage drops below 18 V, the panel will
shutdown the batteries automatically in order to avoid irreparable damage.

Chapter 10
Configuring the loop
When configuring the loop, you must define the typology (refer to Appendix A, Appendix B and Appendix C)
and wiring (two or four wires) and also the connected devices. The connected devices may belong either
to the fire control system (e.g.: detectors, modules, bells, etc.), or to the gas extinguishant system. The
panel considers each device a “point” which must first be enrolled and then programmed.
Note: To install devices other than those specified in the appendix, you must use an input module to interface
between the loop and the devices concerned.
Each point is associated with a device type (e.g. optical smoke detector) and an address.
The following section describes the different ways of configuring loop points:
1. add/remove a point, using the respective address or type
2. assign an address to a device and allow it to acquire data from the panel
3. ask the panel to acquire data from the devices (all or only new devices) and assign their addresses
(only for INIM and Argus loop types).
Once the configuration has been completed, you can go on to program each separate point (refer to paragraph
11.1).
Attention: You must insert the respective programming jumper (J8 or J9) before starting the
addressing procedure (J8 for programming from panel; J9 if for programming from PC).
Note: In the first case, you can configure the loop without panel linkup, for example, at your office. The
configuration can be downloaded to the panel later. In the other two cases, you can configure the loop
from the panel or via a PC connected to the panel.
Once the loop has been configured, any form of tamper to the device (e.g.: disconnection,
dislodgement, etc.) will generate a fault signal.
10.1 Defining loop typology
From panel: <key>, Programming, Configuration, Loop, Ok, Loop Parameters
Select the loop type (INIM, Argus, Apollo) and wiring type (2 or 4 wires).
10.2 Adding/Removing any type of device manually
From the panel: <key>, Programming, Configuration, Loop, Ok, Add point or Delete point
A new device can be added to the system configuration manually:
1. Select an unassigned address.
2. Associate the respective device type with the selected address.
3. Set the device address.
4. Connect the device to the loop.
Note:

2. Press S or T to select the address and device type.
Note: To remove a point, enter ‘0’ in the "Type" programming field.
Once the points have been added, you must complete their programming (refer to paragraph 11.1 Programming fire-detection points).
10.3 Configuring the devices
Refer to Appendix A, Appendix B and Appendix C.
10.4 Checking enrolled/addressed devices
After initializing the enrolling procedure (for all devices) or the automatic-addressing process (only for
devices that accept this method), you must wait for its completion, then compare the number of enrolled
detectors/devices with the total number of detector/device placements.
If the totals differ:
1. Press Ok to access Programming points (refer to paragraph 11.1).
2. Search the list for the devices that have not been found by the panel.
3. Clear the anomaly and re-initialize the addressing process.
If the totals match:
1. Press Ok to access Programming points.
2. Proceed with the programming process of all the points.

Programming fire detection points
The panel sees all loop devices as points, therefore, the point must be duly programmed in order for the
panel to determine their operating principles. Each point can be set up as an input and/or output.
If a point is programmed as a 'fire-detection' point, the panel will deal with it as such and manage it
accordingly.
Danger: In order to validate the IMQ-SECURITY SYSTEMS certification, and in compliance with EN54-
2 regulations, delays (pre-alarm time) must not be associated with the activation of the

paragraph 9.2 - Setting delays and times). If the device value exceeds the set threshold
again, the panel will generate an alarm, otherwise, it will restore to standby.
11.1.3 Signals emitted by the point (Input)
Alarm YES If the analysis value exceeds the alarm threshold (refer to paragraph 11.1.2), it will
generate an alarm signal to the panel, trigger an alarm on the zone it belongs to
(primary zone) and activate the associated outputs. The point cannot be used for
Monitoring purposes.
NO If the analysis value exceeds the alarm threshold, it will send an alarm signal to the
panel, but will not trigger an alarm on the zone it belongs to (primary zone) or activate
its associated outputs. If alarm events do not require signal transmission to the panel,
select Monitor as the activation signal.
Pre-alarm YES If the analysis value exceeds the alarm threshold, it will send a pre-alarm signal to the
panel and trigger the pre-alarm time of the zone it belongs to. When the pre-alarm time
expires, it will generate an alarm on the zone it belongs to (primary zone) and activate
its associated outputs. The point cannot be used for Monitoring purposes.
NO If the analysis value exceeds the alarm threshold, it will send an alarm signal to the
panel, without activating the pre-alarm time.
Fault YES If one of the possible faults occurs on the input (refer to Chapter 17 - Diagnostics and
fault solutions), it will send a fault signal to the panel and generate a fault on the zone it
belongs to (primary zone).
NO Faults that occur on the input will be ignored.
Warning YES If the analysis value exceeds the warning threshold, it will send a warning signal to the
panel and the respective zone.
NO If the analysis value exceeds the warning threshold, the event will be signaled on the
panel but not on the zone.
Monitor YES If the analysis value exceeds the alarm threshold, it will send a 'Monitor' signal to the
panel and activate all the associated zone outputs.
Attention: Enablement of the Monitor signal inhibits the Alarm and Pre-

Installation and programming manual
To ensure proper programming of the gas extinguishant system you must:
1. Configure the extinguishant module
2. Program the operating principles
3. Program the input and output extinction points
12.1 Configuring the extinguishant module
From panel: <key>, Programming, Configuration, BUS, Extinguish board, Ok
This option allows the panel to determine how many extinguishant modules are connected (this model
accepts one module only).

Extinguishant module feature that provides confirmation of extinguishant gas release.
If an “Extinguish” event occurs, the extinguishment module will activate the VALVE output
(for the pre-set time) and the RELEASED output without awaiting confirmation of
extinguishant gas release.
The RELEASED output will be activated when the Extinguish time expires, that is, if the
“pressure switch” signal has been activated (from the pressure switch input or from an point
set up as a “pressure switch” input). The “pressure switch” signal will be considered valid only
when the signal persists after expiry of the Extinguish time.
EXAMPLE: You can connect a pressure-drop signaling device to the PRESS. input or an input
point set up as a “pressure switch” (the device will signal when the cylinders empty thus
confirming that the protected space has been successfully saturated).
The RELEASED output will be activated when the Extinguish time expires, that is, if the
“from flow detector” signal has been activated during this phase (from the pressure switch
input or from a point set up as a “flow detector” input).
EXAMPLE: You can connect a gas-flow signaling device to the PRESS input or a point set up as
a “flow detector” input (the device will signal when gas is being released).
Pressure switch Defines the significance of the signal coming from the PRESS input.
Supervisory: activation of the input signals a drop in gas extinguishant pressure.
From pressure: activation of the input indicates that the gas cylinders are empty, therefore,
the protected space is saturated and activates the “confirm extinction from pressure switch”
signal.
From flow detector: activation of the input indicates that gas has been released and
activates the “confirm extinction from flow detector” signal.

12.3 Programming extinction points
From panel: <key>, Programming, Progr. Point, select point, Ok
The extinguishant module manages three inputs (e.g.: a button to stop the gas extinguishant) and three
outputs (e.g.: a bell that alerts building occupants of the imminent release of gas). Under certain
circumstances, it may be difficult to connect devices directly to the module, in such cases, you may find it
easier to connect the extinction devices to the fire detection loop.
Programming a point as an Extinction point will allow the panel to identify it as an fire extinction device and
manage it accordingly.

Configuring the devices connected to the RS485 BUS
From panel: <key>, Programming, Configuration, BUS, Ok
The SmartLetUSee/LCD-Lite repeaters are clone panels. They are equipped with displays and LEDs and
replicate all the information provided by the control panel. The panel supports up to 4 repeaters which,
under normal circumstances, should be located at entrances/exits, in such way as to allow building
occupants or fire officers to view alarm details without going too far inside the building.
The SmartLevel power-supply stations provide load current to remote apparatus located within the area
covered by the system. The control panel supports two power-supply stations, for a maximum of six
devices connected to the RS485 BUS.
After installing and addressing each device, you must include them in the system configuration.
This will allow the panel to determine which devices are connected to
the BUS and indicate those found.
Note: The panel uses the screen above, to indicate the current configuration of repeaters and extinguishant
modules. if you press OK (working from this screen), the panel will search the communication BUS and
include any newly found devices in the configuration.

SmartLeague software
15.1 Overview
The SmartLight system can be programmed from the panel or from a PC. You can access all the
programming process via the SmartLeague programming and management software for INIM Electronics
security products.
The SmartLeague software programme allows you to access all the system parameters which can be
accessed via the control panel. In addition, it provides a clear, complete view of the status of the system
and its parts and thus a more precise programming process. The programming process is further enhanced
by a greater number of parameters for each point and the use of combinatory logic in the zone “equations”.
For further details regarding the SmartLeague software programme, refer to the respective user manual.
15.2 The Solutions
Each Solution comprises an installation structure and the respective group of programming parameters.
You can save the system solution to the SmartLeague database and use it for maintenance purposes or as
a “model” for other systems.
Each solution is dedicated to a device type and has its own programming interface. In this way, it is
possible to compare different solutions, or keep two solutions open (one real and the other for test
purposes), in order to verify step by step the effects of the programming process.
A solution can be created and changed without computer to device link up. For example, you can prepare a
system layout and/or set parameters without leaving your office. The data can be downloaded to the
system when you are ready.
15.3 Enable programming via PC
All functions can be accessed via PC without the need of connecting to the control panel; this connection
will be necesary only during data upload (transfer of data from the PC to control panel) and download
(transfer of data from the control panel to PC).
The extinguishant module can be programmed only via the SmartLeague software, whereas, the
configuration and programming of the points can be done from the panel. If the programming jumper is
not inserted, access to the programming via PC will be denied.
1. Remove the frontplate.
2. Insert the jumper (paragraph 4.1 - [P]), the respective message will
appear. The panel keys will be disabled.
3. Using the cable (refer to paragraph 7.2 - Connecting the RS232 PC
serial link), connect the PC to the serial port (refer to paragraph 4.1 -
[D]).

3. If only one of the batteries has a voltage below 12.5 - 13 V:
• Replace the faulty battery only.
• Allow the batteries to charge for several hours.
• Check that the fault has cleared.
4. If both batteries have a voltage of 12.5 - 13 V, it means they are both inefficient (even though the
voltage without load is correct).
• Replace both batteries.
• Allow them to charge for several hours.

The serial number is shown on the information label [A] and on two smaller removable labels [B]. When
installing the devices, it is strongly advises to remove the small labels and place one on the system layout
and the other on the mounting base. This will facilitate device tracing and re-location operations.
Note: Each loop supports up to 240 devices.
A.1.1 Re-addressing
After connecting the devices to the loop, you must then configure the loop.
The addressing phase allows the system to determine the serial number of each device connected to the
loop and assign a logic address (a number between 1 and 240). The system will use this number to
indentify the point during all the system programming operations.

For information regarding Apollo device installation and address assignment, contact www.apollo-
fire.co.uk.
C.9.1 Addressing detectors manually using the XPERT card
Setting detector addresses manually
1. Detach the detector from its base and remove the XPERT card.
1. Remove the breakoffs in such way as to achieve the address you wish to assign (sum up the value of
each breakoff). Example: for address 43 remove breakoffs 1, 2, 8 and 32.
2. Insert the XPERT card an re-attach the detector to its base.
Addressing modules manually
Remove the cover and set the DIP microswitches. Refer to the Instructions leaflet for the various
combinations available.
Allow the Smart Light panel to learn the manually assigned addresses.
