This manual applies to the Protec 6500 and 6600 fire alarm control panels however for convenience;
reference will be made only to the ‘6500’. Everything in this manual applies to the 6500 and 6600
unless stated otherwise.
The Protec 6500 Fire Alarm Control Panel has been designed and manufactured in the United
Kingdom and complies fully with current standards dictating fire alarm system design practice ( EN54
parts 2 and 4 ).
This equipment and its associated connections must be installed, commissioned and
maintained by a suitably trained skilled and competent person.
This equipment is not guaranteed unless installed and commissioned in accordance with
current national standards
There are no user serviceable parts inside the 6500. The equipment and its associated
connections must be installed, commissioned and maintained by a suitably trained,
skilled and competent person.A separate 6500 Installation Manual is available.
It is assumed that the commissioning engineer has read the 6500 User Manual and is
therefore familiar with the basic operation of a 6500 fire panel.
For information on programming the panel and communicating via the PC using the
commissioning software, refer to the Commissioning Software User Manual
Access to the features of the 6500 is achieved by logging in. If it is displayed, Press
Login and the display will show the code entry screen
If the Login button is not displayed, touch the middle of the screen to bring up the code
entry key pad
Enter the engineer code by touching the relevant number buttons then touch Enter. If the code is
correct then the display will show the main menu screen
For information on the Service Info screen and the Upgrade screen
refer to the relevant sections.
When the engineer code is entered, the ‘Main Menu’ screen will be displayed.
Touch a menu option to select it.
Tools Menu - refer to section 1.3
Test Menu - refer to section 1.17
System View - refer to the user manual
Disable / Enable - refer to the user manual
History - refer to the user manual
Settings - refer to the user manual
Each loop must be logged and allocated. Logging finds all the connected devices, their type, software
version and their physical order whilst Allocating allows the engineer to assign an address to each
device. Until a device is allocated an address on the loop, the panel cannot communicate with it.
To log a loop, touch Loop logging to select the panel, then loop card, and then select the
loop.
Loop logging is a two stage process, first it logs how many devices are connected to
the loop then it maps them to find their physical position on the loop. Knowing their
physical position makes fault finding easier. Loop logging can take several minutes; its
progress is indicated on the display.
Touch Allocate to move direct to the allocation menu (see next section) else touch OK
to exit the logging screen.
Each Protec ‘6000’ loop device has a unique serial number. This serial number has to be linked to a
unique address. The process of linking the serial number to an address is known as address allocation.
To begin allocating the device addresses, touch Allocate addresses to select the panel,
then loop card, and then select the loop.
Indicates the column used for sorting the data. Touch one of the other column headers to
change the method of sorting.
This button provides a quick way to allocate the selected device to the lowest unused
address, in this case the address is ‘1’.
This button finds the next device in the list to the one selected that has not yet been
allocated an address.
This button finds the previous device in the list prior to the one selected that has not yet
been allocated an address.
This button allocates the selected device the address that has been entered. The address
range is ‘0’ to ‘200’. Each device must have a unique address between ‘1’ and ‘200’. ‘0’ or a
blank address is used to de-allocate a device.
This button deletes the latest digit that has been entered.
On completion of the address allocation, touch Exit.
To access all the network information, this must be performed on the master panel.
Slave panels are limited to displaying the network map.
Touch Mapping info then select the Network card. This displays a map of the panels
connected to the network and a summary of the number of panels mapped and
missing.
Pink indicates the master panel with no faults
Green indicates a slave panel with no faults
Yellow indicates that the panel has a fault. A red border to the yellow circle indicates that the
panel is one side of a network break.
Blue indicates a slave panel that is acting as the master.
Touch Quality then select the network card to display data that the panel has
collected on the operation of the network.
Note: - The quality data can only be cleared by re-initialising the network.
This data is automatically refreshed.
Note: - This data can be used to check for network problems. Leaving the panel for one hour then rechecking
should show no additional CH1 or CH2 UART errors.
Touch Loop Info to display the diagnostic information after selecting the loop card
then the loop
This data is automatically refreshed every 30 seconds.
Series Impedance Denotes the total resistance of both the loop positive and negative
conductors. A value greater than 32Ω is considered high. The maximum
permitted resistance is loop specific because it depends upon both the
loop length and current drawn.
Parallel Impedance Denotes the resistance between the loop positive conductor and the
loop negative conductor. This figure would normally be >500Ω.
Space Voltage Denotes the low voltage level of the loop signalling. This voltage will be
around 10V
Space Current Denotes the current drawn during the low voltage level of the loop
signalling. This figure should be almost zero
Shield Value The shield resistance is not measured on a 6500 panel so ignore this
value
Scan Time Denotes the time taken to communicate with every loop device. This
Total Device Missed Replies Indicates the number of times that a loop device has failed to reply to
the loop card since the counter was last reset. This figure is an
indication of the quality of the loop signalling. It is recommended that
the counts are reset then the data is checked again an hour later. There
should be no missed replies.
Total Exchange Errors Indicates the number of times that the loop card has failed to
communicate with the loop driver processor. This figure should always
be zero.
Touch Reset Counts to clear the Total Device Missed Replies and the Total
Exchange Errors to zero
Each panel stores all of the system disablements. The panels regularly monitor the disablements in
order to ensure that all the panels remain in sync. If a disablement is applied or removed whilst a
panel has been taken offline for reprogramming then when the panel re-joins the network, a
disablement fault will occur. The only way to clear a disablement fault is to ‘Clear All Disablements’ and then ‘Clear system fault’.
Touching Clear All Disablements will blank all disablements on the system. See note
below regarding key-switch disablements.
If a key-switch, used to generate a disablement, is currently active then, switch it off,
clear all disablements then activate it again.
1.16 Rebuild
Each panel stores all of the faults. Occasionally the panels on a network can disagree about the
number of faults. This can occur if one panel was temporarily isolated from the network.
Touching Start Rebuild will cause each panel to remove all faults except their own.
Each panel will then transmit its own faults on the network. On completion of the
rebuild, all panels will have the same record of all faults.
Unlike the previous Protec 6400 panel, during a rebuild each panel does not regenerate
its own faults. Each panel simply retransmits its own events that already exist in its
database.
Touch Test Menu to display the different test types
Touch a menu option to select it.

Note: - Only a single panel on the network may function as a selective display at any time.
Touch to enable the selective display on the current local panel
Touch to disable the selective display anywhere on the network
Enabling the selective display will cause test events to be displayed on only the selective display and
local panel instead of across the entire network.
If the user wishes to use the selective display then the selective display option must be
set before any test events are created.

MIMIC Device Missing
The mimic LED controller bus can support 64 devices. One of
these devices e.g. an MEI board is missing. The reported address
is the device DIL switch address plus one.
In order for a mimic switch device (Wefa 522) to function 5V and
Comms must be connected, the green device LED must be lit.
Deluge Drive Limit Fault
An attempt was made to exceed the number of permitted active
deluge outputs. The panel has restricted the number of active
deluge outputs.
WODU Interface Board Missing
Applies to prison WODU panels only. The WODU interface board
(Wefa 562) that is connected to the display card via the Printer
Data port is not communicating. Check that the green led on the
interface board is flashing.
There was an error in the configuration file when it was
downloaded to the panel
One or more loops has been logged and allocated but the data
has not been uploaded from the panel to the PC
This fault latches and can only be removed by fixing the
configuration error in the Commissioning software and
downloading the corrected configuration to the panel.
DLP Card CRC Error
A card is reporting a corruption in its memory. This card should be
replaced
DLP Card Incorrect Version
One of the cards has out of date firmware and needs to be
updated
Invalid Event
There was a problem transmitting this event on the network.
Refer to the panel number to find the actual event. Report the
problem to Protec

The panel has been disconnected from the network probably to
be programmed.
Printer Fault
The panel cannot communicate with its printer. Check that 1. the
two printer cables are in place
2. there is sufficient paper
3. there is no paper jam
If there is no printer fitted, remove it from the panel’s
configuration file
System Fault
Faults that are deemed to be system faults will generate a
separate System fault event.
Fix the cause of the problem then press ‘Clear System Fault’.
Network Comms Fault
Every few minutes, the master panel transmits a message to one
of the panels on the system. If this panel fails to reply then a
network comms fault is generated.
Press Reset to clear this fault. If the problem persists then the
fault will be regenerated however the time taken to regenerate
this fault depends upon the number of panels on the network.
2.2 Panel faults (Latching)
All latching panel faults include a panel number, some include a card number. If required, refer to the
separate section on DLP card identification. These faults latch and can only be removed by pressing
reset except where stated.
Every few minutes, the master panel transmits the disablement
information to the other panels on the system. If one of those
other panels discovers that the received information does not
match its own information then this fault is reported.
To remove this fault :-
1. From the Tools menu, press ‘Clear All Disablements’
2. Press Reset
3. From the Settings menu, press ‘Clear System Fault’
Internal Error – System DB
Indicates that the system database is filling up.
Contact Technical @ Protec
a) Upload the fire & non-fire databases from each panel that
is reporting the fault using a PC program supplied by
Technical. Note that the historic log is not to be confused
with the database
b) The fault can only be cleared by taking the panel offline
and back online
c) Once the database is full, the panel cannot function
correctly
Internal Error – DLP Queue
Indicates that the system failed to send information to a loop card
a) The fault can only be cleared by taking the panel offline
and back online
If the fault persists, contact Technical @ Protec
There is a serial number mismatch between the display card and
the controller card. This indicates that one of the cards has been
swapped for a replacement.
To remove the fault :-
a) Replace the original card and if necessary cycle the power
off and back on
b) If a new card has been purchased then contact the
supplier for an upgrade code.
c) Enter the upgrade code
Only one licence fault can be generated by a panel at a time.
Other licence faults may be present.
Licence Fault 0x0002
There is a network configuration issue. This indicates that more
than six panels are in the network configuration file and the panel
generating this fault is only licensed for a six panel network.
To remove the fault :-
a) If more than six panels have been included in the
configuration in error then remove the incorrect panel,
rebuild the configuration file and download it.
b) Contact the panel supplier for details of how to upgrade a
panel.
Only one licence fault can be generated by a panel at a time.
Other licence faults may be present.
Licence Fault 0x0003
There is a network map issue. This indicates that more than six
panels are in the network map received from the network card
and the panel generating this fault is only licenced for a six panel
network.
To remove the fault :-
a) If more than six panels have been connected in error then
remove the extra panel and if necessary cycle the power
off and back on
b) Contact the panel supplier for details of how to upgrade a
panel.
Only one licence fault can be generated by a panel at a time.
Other licence faults may be present.
There is a break in the network between Panel X and Panel Y
where X and Y are the panel numbers
Network Card Flash Checksum
Fault
There is a memory corruption in the network card, replace the
card
Network Card Isolated
The network card is not communicating with the network, check
that switch 1 is off
Network - CH2 PSU Fault
There is a fault in the network card’s isolated power supply,
replace the card
Network - Configuration Fault
The configuration data received by the network card is corrupt
Network - Duplicate Master
Two master panels have been detected on the network. There are
two possible causes:
1. Two panels have been assigned as the master in their
configuration data. This needs correcting using the PC
commissioning software
2. During a double break of the network wiring, two panels have
to perform the job of master. On restoration of the network,
one of these has failed to relinquish control of the network. Reinitialise the network at the original master panel
Network - Duplicate Panel(s)
The network has initialised with two panels that have the same
number. This needs correcting using the PC commissioning
software. Note that neither panel is allowed to transmit an event
so each will eventually display a Slave CTS fault
Network - Failed
The network is not operational because there are too many faults
Network Fault - Network Master
Elected
The network has unexpectedly lost the master panel so another
panel has automatically been assigned as the master until the
problem is fixed
Network – Map Fault
The physical order of the panels does not match the order
downloaded to the master panel
Network – Missing Panel
One or more panels in the master panel’s network configuration
data is missing.
Network - Reverse Wiring Fault
One or more panels has its network CH1 and CH2 wiring reversed
Network - Slave CTS Fault
The panel has an event to transmit but the network master panel
is not permitting it to transmit. This fault will be reported by
duplicate panels.
Network - Too Many Panels
The network has initialised with too many panels. The network
supports a maximum of 64 panels
Network - Unknown Panel(s)
The network has initialised with a panel that is not in the master
panel’s network configuration data
2.3 Network Faults
All network faults include a panel number
Network faults latch and can only be removed by pressing Reset
The loop has a break in its wiring. The fault threshold is currently set
to 100Ω
Loop Drive Overload Fault
The loop cannot be driven due to an overload condition.
Loop Drive Parallel Fault
There is a low resistance between loop ‘+’ and loop ‘-‘. The fault
threshold is currently set to 200Ω(Issue E) or 120Ω (Issue F). This
fault will also occur if more than ten loop device repeater LEDs are
turned on at the same time
Loop Drive Series Fault
There is a high resistance in the loop wiring. The fault threshold is
currently set to 80Ω (Issue E) or 50Ω (Issue F) however any value
greater than 32 is considered high. The loop current calculator in
the commissioning software must be used to determine if the
system has been designed correctly.
For export customers who use loops for detection devices only,
there is an option to ignore this fault. Users of the option take
responsibility for checking that the loop devices function correctly.
This checking includes correct operation at low battery voltage
levels or when there is a loop open circuit.
Loop Drive Short Circuit
The loop has a short in its wiring. This fault is probably :-
1. in the wiring between loop side ‘A’ and the first device with
an isolator
2. in the wiring between loop side ‘B’ and the last device with
an isolator
Loop Drive Processor Fault
The loop driver processor has reported a fault.
1. The panel reporting the fault must be taken offline then
back online to clear this fault
2. Report this fault to Technical @ Protec
2.4 Loop faults
All loop faults include a panel and loop number.
All Loop faults latch and can only be removed by pressing Reset.
1. The panel reporting the fault must be taken offline then
back online to clear this fault
2. Report this fault to Technical @ Protec along with the
number ‘abcd’
Unknown Active Device
This fault normally occurs during commissioning and indicates that
a device that hasn’t been allocated onto the loop has an active input.
Only MCPs and interface devices eg MICCO, MIP, ZAI, 16 Way boards
etc can cause this fault.
Detectors and sounders cannot cause this fault.
If this fault occurs on a live site that has already been commissioned
then :-
1. Check the loop diagnostic data for problems including
missed replies.
2. Put the loop into exchange device mode then press Reset.
This would reveal an added device if one was present.
This fault could increase the time taken for an MCP or other loop
device to generate a fire signal.
This fault was previously displayed as ‘Loop Drive VPI Fault’
Loop Initialisation Fault
The loop has failed to initialise correctly. None of the devices on the
loop may function correctly.
This fault can be caused by the loop being disabled because the
panel is not licensed to run the loop. If this is the case then there will
be no voltage on the loop. Use the Service Info screen to check the
panel type and confirm the number of licensed loops.
