SA-DACT FCC information

Cautions

• To ensure proper operation, this dialer must be installed according to the enclosed installation instructions. To verify that the dialer is operating properly and can successfully report an alarm, it must be tested immediately after installation, and periodically thereafter,

according to the enclosed test instructions.

• In order for the dialer to be able to seize the phone line to report an alarm or other event when other customer equipment (telephone, answering system, computer modem, etc.) connected to the same line is in use, the dialer must be connected to a properly installed RJ-31X jack. The RJ-31X jack must be connected in series with, and ahead of, all other

iv P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18

equipment attached to the same phone line. Series installation of an RJ-31X jack is depicted in the wiring diagram. If you have any questions concerning these instructions, you should consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

Testing

When programming emergency numbers or making test calls to emergency numbers, remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call. When system

maintenance, testing or modifications could result in the transmission of signals from the fire

alarm system to a supervising station, consult the supervising station to determine the best time to send these signals (i.e., “off-peak” hours).

Compliance

• This dialer complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). A label attached to the dialer contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company.

• The plug and jack used to connect the dialer to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by ACTA. The dialer must be connected to a compliant RJ-31X or RJ-38X jack using a compliant cord. If a modular telephone cord is supplied with the dialer, it is designed to meet these requirements. See installation instructions for details.

• A ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine how many devices you can connect to a telephone line. If the total REN value for all devices connected on a telephone line exceeds that allowed by the telephone company, the devices may not ring on an incoming call. In most (but not all) areas the total REN value should not exceed 5.0. To be certain of the total REN value allowed on a telephone line, contact the local telephone company.

• For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN is part of the product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits ## represent the REN without a decimal point. Example: 03 is a REN of 0.3. For earlier products the REN is listed separately.

• If the dialer is harming the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. If advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC, if you believe it is necessary.

• The telephone company may make changes to its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the dialer. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

• If you are experiencing problems with the dialer, contact the manufacturer for repair or warranty information. If the dialer is harming the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the dialer until the problem is resolved.

P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18 v

• The dialer contains no user serviceable parts. In case of defects, return the dialer for repair.

• You may not connect the dialer to a public coin phone or a party line service provided by the telephone company.

Industry Canada information

satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user disconnect the equipment.

Caution: Users should not attempt to make connections themselves, but should contact the

appropriate electrical inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

Note: The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the

total load to be connected to a telephone loop that is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirements that the sum of the Load Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 100.

There are two LEDs on the card for each SLC that indicate SLC communication status. See Figure 18 and Figure 19 for LED functions and location.

The installation location of the card on the panel determines what panel SLC the LEDs are associated with for VS4 that support dual SLC cards and provide two installation locations.

See Figure 20.

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

Getting started

You can program the system using the command buttons on the front panel, or a PC with the optional configuration utility (CU), or both. If you plan to use the configuration utility, refer to the Help system for complete programming instructions.

What is a zone?

A zone is a defined area within a protected premises which contains individually addressed detector and/or module inputs physically located within that respective area. Zones provide a single initiation response to represent the group of contained devices in the same manner as a

conventional initiating device circuit. Zones can be utilized to limit the number of event messages processed by the system. Zones are required to be defined when the system

utilizes LED annunciation. Firewall designations, planned evacuation criteria, architectural design, and other factors determine how points are grouped into zones.

What is a correlation group?

A correlation group is a collection of inputs that activate a collection of outputs. During loop configuration, input devices, zones, and events are correlated with NACs and other output

devices.

Output activations depend on the activation count and delay options. The activation count controls the number of input activations that are required to activate the group’s outputs. The delay controls the number of seconds the system waits before activating the group’s outputs. For example:

• When the correlation group’s activation count is 1 (default), the activation of any input device in the group turns on every output device in the group.

• When the activation count is 3, every output device in the group is activated when at least three input devices activate.

• When the correlation group’s activation count is 3 and three or more input devices turn on, the system waits the delay time before activating the group’s outputs.

A correlation group can contain any combination of input devices, output devices, NACs, events, and zones. Input devices, output devices, NACs, events, and zones can be assigned to more than one correlation group. There are 199 available correlation groups.

Figure 45: Inputs and outputs to correlation groups

During auto programming the following devices are assigned to correlation group 001:

• All addressable smoke detectors configured with the P1 or P2 switch in position 1 (alarm)

• All addressable pull stations

• All panel NACs

• All zones configured as alarm

• All addressable heat detectors

• All addressable primary elements of dual devices only. Example: PCOS/PCD is a dual element device in which the smoke element is included and the CO element is not.

• All fully programmable input modules

38 P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

• All riser type supervised output modules

The following inputs are not included in correlation group 001 during auto programming:

• Relay and sounder bases with the Follow option set to Head. All sounder bases are programmed as Relay during auto programming.

• Addressable relays

• Supervisory input of the WTM modules

• Monitor modules (MM1)

Note the following:

• Any items included in correlation group 001 can be removed manually using front panel programming or the configuration utility.

• Any detectors, modules, or zones, where the type is changed to a type other than alarm, should be removed manually from correlation group 001 to avoid activating that correlation group.

• If zoning is used, the zones must be in the appropriate correlation group so devices assigned to that zone activate the correlation group.

• The CO elements for COD, PCOS/PCD, HCD, and PHCD detectors are not included in Correlation Group 1 during auto programming or auto zoning

What is in-suite signal silence?

In-suite signal silence is a form of automatic alarm silencing that can be enabled for correlation groups. The function is used in residential complexes to minimize the annoyance of false

alarms within living quarters. When an alarm input device activates, evacuation signals activate normally. After one minute, alarms in living quarters outside the alarm zone deactivate briefly. This interval is called the shutdown period and gives building personnel time to investigate the problem. Room evacuation signals in the alarm zone and hallway signals

throughout the building remain active.

If the alarm has not been cleared within programmed allotted time (1 to 10 minutes), or if a subsequent alarm occurs, all signals resound. The shutdown period can be adjusted at the panel. In-suite signal silence can be turned off completely at the panel by setting the Suite Signal Silence option to Off (default). This setting is found at Program > Advanced Program > Panel Operation.

In-suite signal silence is a feature commonly utilized in the Canadian marketplace. This feature is not permitted when the system must meet UL 864 requirements for the US marketplace.

Notes

• Only alarm events can initiate in-suite signal silence.

• Only the first alarm is silenced by in-suite signal silence. Any additional alarms sound as programmed and are not automatically silenced.

P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18 39

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

• In-suite signal silence applies only to output devices and NACs that are configured as silenceable. It cannot be used in local alarm signaling applications.

• You cannot use a delay timer with in-suite correlation groups.

• No special hardware is required.

• In-suite signal silence is required by Ontario Building Code 3.2.4. For instructions on programming in-suite signal silence in a typical system, see “Adding and removing panel events” on page 87.

Programming modes

You can choose from three levels of program automation: Auto programming, incremental programming, or advanced programming. These are discussed in the following sections.

Auto programming

The Auto Program command is used to automatically configure the control panel and remote annunciators from their respective front panels.

Auto programming replaces the existing project database with a default project database based on the hardware configuration that it detects. The default project database configures the system as a general fire alarm system that activates all notification appliance circuits when any fire alarm input is activated.

Auto programming can also be used as a first step, to be followed by some advanced programming to customize individual settings. The Auto Program command lets you choose:

• Automatic zone assignments

• The event notification level to use

• Manual or automatic device and zone labeling during auto programming

• The “base follow” option for relay and sounder bases

• CMS network and dialer options

Note: Auto programming does not overwrite the previous CMS programming. However, the

restore panel defaults option in the program menu does change the CMS configuration.

To auto program a panel, see “Auto programming the panel” on page 68.

Incremental programming

The Incremental Program command is used to make changes to a panel that has already been programmed. Incremental programming lets you add and label devices and zones in the existing database without affecting any other settings. See “Performing incremental programming” on page 74.

The Unconfigured Alarm command is used to add an additional device or several devices to a

system without using the Incremental Program command. When a new device is added or a device is removed, the panel signals a “trouble active” event and indicates on the LCD that there is an unconfigured device. The device can then be programmed and added to the

database. This method is typically used to add just a few devices. See “Adding and removing devices from programmed systems” on page 77.

Advanced programming

Advanced programming is used to apply custom programming to a new or previously programmed fire alarm system. Advanced programming lets you configure each option individually. See “Advanced programming” on page 81.

Using the programming control buttons

The following buttons are used with the LCD to program the panel.

key scrolls through alternate values. For example, pressing and holding the “2” key scrolls between 2, A, B, and C.

Deletes text when editing labels, etc.

Passwords

There are two types of passwords available, Level 1 and Level 2.

Level 1: The level 1 password lets you access the front panel programmable buttons, change the system clock, activate and restore devices and NACs, disable and enable devices, NACs, events, and zones.

Level 2: The level 2 password lets you access the control panel’s programming functions. To prevent unauthorized access to the panel’s programming, always change the password from the default value and save it in a separate, secure location.

Note: If you are using the Configuration Utility (CU), the Level 2 password must match the

panel Level 2 password.

Clearing the event history log

The panel maintains a log of the most recent 1,000 system or user events. The event record

contains the event time, the event type, the event state, and the event ID. The event time is the time and date of the event activation or restoration. All of these records are stored in the

panel’s history database and can be cleared (deleted) if needed. Once the history log exceeds 1,000 events, the oldest event is deleted as the newest event is added.

Once the history log is cleared, all new panel events are stored in history. You might want to clear the history log in the following situations:

• When installation is complete, you can clear the history log before turning the system over to the building owner.

P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18 65

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

• If the system history log is filled with event records resulting from a faulty device, problem, or situation, you can clear the history log after the problem is addressed.

Note: When the history log is full, the oldest event is deleted when a new event is added.

To clear the event history log:

1. Press the Menu button and choose Program.

2. Choose Clear History.

3. Enter a level two password.

4. Select Yes to clear history or No to leave history unchanged.

5. Press Enter.

6. Press the Menu button to exit menu mode, or continue programming.

Updating the firmware

The Firmware Update Utility (FUU) lets you install new firmware in the main panel or loop interface module. It also lets you retrieve the current firmware version in your panel. Refer to the Firmware Update Utility release notes to verify which panel versions can be updated using the FUU. Refer to the FUU help for instructions on how to use the FUU.

Updating the loop interface module firmware is a three-step process.

1. Obtain the loop interface module firmware from the appropriate website, and then load it into the FUU software.

2. Download the loop interface module firmware to the panel main board using the FUU software.

3. Write the loop interface module firmware from the panel main board to the SLC card using front panel programming.

To restart the panel:

1. Press the menu button and choose Program.

2. Choose Panel Restart.

3. Enter your level two password.

4. Choose Yes to restart the panel.

— or —

Choose No to cancel.

Enabling RS-232 communication

The RS232 CU Enable command lets you connect a PC to the control panel by means of the optional RS-232 card. This enables you to use the Configuration Utility (CU) to program the panel and upload or download panel data.

Note: The RS232 CU Enable command times out (turns off) after four minutes of inactivity,

meaning that if communication is enabled but the panel does not connect to the CU PC within

four minutes, communication is automatically disabled.

To enable RS-232 communication:

1. If you are using a printer, disconnect the printer cable from the RS-232 card.

2. Connect the configuration utility computer to the RS-232 card.

3. Press the Menu button and choose Program.

4. Choose RS232 CU Enable.

The RS232 CU Enable screen is displayed.

5. Choose On.

The panel can now communicate with the CU.

6. When you have finished, disconnect the PC from the RS-232 card.

7. Turn off RS232 CU Enable.

8. Reconnect the printer cable to the RS-232 card if needed.

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

Auto programming the panel

Auto programming detects and applies default settings to installed devices, NACs, remote annunciators, and expansion cards. You can control many aspects of the process by programming the options listed in:

• “Auto programming options” below

• “Dialer options” on page 70

• “NET options” on page 72

Auto programming sets up a common alarm system. After the auto programming process has finished, you can continue with advanced programming to apply any custom settings that may be required.

Caution: Auto programming replaces the current settings for devices, NACs, remote

annunciators, and expansion cards with default settings.

Notes

• Before starting the auto programming sequence, set the time and date and change the default passwords. See “Factory default settings” on page 42. for a list of all the settings that will be applied during auto programming.

• Auto programming places most input devices (alarm device type) and NACs in correlation group 001. Relay and sounder bases are not automatically assigned to correlation groups. For more information on correlation groups, see “What is a correlation group?” on page 37 and “Correlation group programming” on page 83.

• Auto programming turns off the In Suite Signal Silence option for all correlation groups.

• If you choose to label devices during auto programming, devices are labeled by entering the address of the device and then labeling the device. It is important for you to have a printout of the Device Details > Serial Number report to correlate the device address with the default label and serial number. This will make device labeling much easier.

• Auto programming will not allow for REL configuration. You must configure a REL from the VS-CU.

Option

Follow CO

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

Description

This option controls the conditions that will activate relay or sounder detector bases.

Select from the following values.

Head: The base is controlled by the detector’s settings.

• The base activates when the detector goes into alarm, unless the detector is set

for alarm verification.

• If the detector is set for alarm verification, the base activates when the detector goes into alarm verification. It does not restore, however, until the alarm restores.

• The base does not respond when the detector goes into prealarm no matter how the detector is configured. Also, the base only follows the primary element of a

dual element detector. Any activation from a secondary element does not trigger the base.

Example: When using a PCOS/PCD (Smoke/CO) detector and assigning it the

Follow "Head" option, the activation of the photoelectric element will cause the local sounder/relay base to activate automatically. However, if the CO element portion of the device activates without the activation of the photoelectric element, the sounder/relay base will not activate.

• Devices with the base set to follow Head cannot be placed in correlation groups. When a device base is set to follow Head, the base is removed as an output from any correlation groups to which it belongs.

Alarm: The base activates its relay when the detector goes into alarm. The base will

not restore until the alarm event has been restored. Any activation from a secondary

element (Active3) does not trigger the base. For CO device operation, see Follow CO below.

Alarm and verify (ALM+VFY): The base activates its relay when the detector goes into

alarm verify and continues when the detector goes into alarm. The base will not restore until both events have been restored.

Alarm and prealarm (ALM+PALM): The base activates its relay when the detector goes into prealarm and continues when the detector goes into an alarm. The base will

not restore until both events have been restored.

Riser: The base is triggered individually by the loop controller (sounder bases only).

None: A correlation group triggers the base. It can be applied to both relay and sounder bases and is used for relay bases configured as latched output devices.

Note: All base follow settings except Head and Riser can be activated by correlation

groups.

This option controls the conditions that will activate relay or sounder detector bases.

Select Yes to allow the device’s secondary element (example CO) to activate the base programmed functions.

Note: This option is not available for Base Follow types of Head, Riser, or None.

Setting a correlation group’s activation count

A correlation group’s activation count is the number of member activations that are required to activate the correlation group. The activation count is used to set up cross zoning. The following rules apply:

• The count cannot exceed the number of input members in the correlation group

• The default value is 1

• Input members can be zones, NACs, devices, unconfigured alarm events, or the common

trouble event

• The activation count must be 1 for correlation groups with in-suite signal silence enabled

• The activation count must not exceed 2 for cross zoning applications and the zones should not have alarm verification per ANSI/NFPA 72-2002 6.8.5.4.3.

To set the activation count:

1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.

2. Choose Advanced Program and enter the level 2 password.

3 Choose Loop Configuration.

4. Choose Correlation Groups and enter the number of the correlation group to be programmed. (Values range from 001 to 199.)

6. Choose Remove All. A warning message is displayed.

7. Choose Continue to remove all members from the group.

— or —

Press the Cancel button to return to the previous level without removing all members.

Note: Removing all members from a correlation group resets the activation count to 1 and

disables in-suite signal silence.

Adding delay time to correlation groups

Using the Delay option, you can program your panel to delay the execution of a correlation group n seconds. A delay is required so that the prerelease and release responses occur in

the correct order. Prerelease correlations must occur before release correlations.

86 P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

To add a delay to a correlation group:

1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.

2. Choose Advanced Program and enter the level 2 password.

3 Choose Loop Configuration.

4. Choose Correlation Groups.

5. Enter the number of the correlation group. (Values range from 001 to 199.)

6. Choose Delay.

7. Enter the number of seconds the correlation group should wait. (Values range from 000 to

300.)

8. Choose Save.

Adding and removing panel events

The following panel events can be added to correlation groups in order to trigger outputs in that correlation. The outputs activate at the beginning of the event and restore when the events

restore.

• Signal Silence

• Drill

• Common Alarm

• Common Supervisory

• Common Monitor

• Common Disable

• Common Trouble

• Local AC Power

• System AC Power

• Aux Power 1

• Aux Power 2

You can also configure Reset for a correlation group in two ways:

• Reset Activate: When an event is added to a correlation group without a configured time delay, the output activates when the reset starts and restores when the reset ends. When an event is added with a configured time delay, the output activates only after the delay

time is reached.

If the delay is greater than twenty seconds, the outputs will not activate, since the delay

time exceeds the reset duration.

• Reset Restore: When an event is added to a correlation group without a configured time delay, active outputs in the correlation are restored when the reset starts and the end of the reset activates the outputs, provided the device triggering the output is still active; otherwise, the outputs will not activate. When programmed with a time delay, the outputs

P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18 87

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

are activated after the reset duration and an additional delay time assigned to the

correlation group, provided the device triggering the output device is still active.

When you configure a correlation group to activate, restore, or disable with the common outputs assigned to reset activate or restore, the priorities are defined from highest to lowest, as shown below.

1. Device disable (command menu or user key)

2. A latched output

3. Activation or restore via command menu

4. Restore via user key

5. Activation via user key

6. Restore from correlation (reset restore)

7. Activation via correlation

To add or remove a panel event:

1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.

2. Choose Advanced Program and enter the level 2 password.

3 Choose Loop Configuration.

4. Choose Correlation Groups and enter the number of the correlation group. (Values range from 001 to 199.)

5. Choose Add/Rem Panel Event.

6. Select:

Yes to add a panel event

No to remove a panel event

7. Choose Save.

Programming in-suite signal silence

In-suite signal silence is programmed using two separate menus:

• Configure the elapse timer for in-suite signal silence by displaying the Program > Advanced Program > Panel Operation menu.

• The function is enabled for individual correlation groups through the Program > Advanced Program > Loop Configuration > Correlation Groups menu.

This section provides instructions for setting both in-suite signal silence options.

Note: When setting up correlation groups for in-suite signal silence, the group’s activation

count must be set to 1. See “Setting a correlation group’s activation count” on page 85.

88 P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

To enable in-suite signal silence for a correlation group:

1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.

2. Choose Advanced Program and enter the level 2 password.

3 Choose Loop Configuration.

4. Choose Correlation Groups and enter the number of the correlation group. (Values range from 001 to 199.)

5. Choose Suite Sig Sil.

6. Select:

Yes to enable in-suite signal silence.

No to disable it.

7. Choose Save.

To set the in-suite signal silence elapse timer:

1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.

2. Choose Panel Operation and enter the level 2 password.

3. For the Suite Sig Sil option, enter a value from 1 to 10 minutes (the default is 10). To disable in-suite signal silence, set this option to Off.

This is a global option that sets the shutdown period during which “in suite” evacuation signals outside the alarm zone remain silenced.

Programming fast groups for sounder bases

For UL/ULC Listing, alarms are required to sound within 10 seconds after a fire is detected. This can be difficult to achieve in large systems with hundreds of sounders, unless the sounders are properly grouped.

To address this requirement, VS1 and VS4 systems provide 25 high priority correlation groups per loop that can activate all sounders simultaneously. These are:

• For panels with one loop only, the fast correlation groups are Groups 001 to 025

• For panels with more than one loop, the fast correlation group options per loop are:

Loop 1: groups 001 to 025

Loop 2: groups 001 to 025 or 101 to 125 (user configurable).

Loop 3: groups 001 to 025 or 126 to 150 (user configurable).

Loop 4: groups 001 to 025 or 151 to 175 (user configurable).

In multiple loop systems, you can combine devices from loop 1, 2, 3, and 4 in correlation groups 001 to 025, or you can separate them and use groups 101 to 125 for loop 2, 126 to 150

P/N 3102351-EN • REV 005 • ISS 28DEC18 89

Chapter 2: Front panel programming

for loop 3 and groups 151 to 175 for loop 4. See “Changing loop configuration options” on page 82.

For best performance use the fast correlation groups for bulk activations, such as entire floors and save the slower correlation groups for small sets of activations such as individual suites or

hotel rooms.

Note: Be sure the Follow option for devices to be added is None, Alarm, Alarm and Verify, or

Alarm and Prealarm. Be sure the Follow option is not set to Head or Riser. If you need to run a report to check the Follow option, see “Device Details report” on page 169. If you need to change the Follow option, see “Adding and removing devices from programmed systems” on page 77.
