INTRODUCTION The FireFinder-XLSTM Control System from Siemens Industry, Inc. is a powerful intelligent

fire alarm control system with in-building mass notification capabilities. FireFinder-XLS utilizes FirePrint—the most advanced fire detection technology in the world.

FireFinder-XLS is designed to provide the most reliable life safety and property protection at the lowest system life cycle cost available anywhere. FireFinder-XLS has been architected to be easy to install, commission and operate. The FireFinder-XLS System is totally modular to satisfy any size building’s fire alarm and mass notification needs.

A basic FireFinder-XLS control system consists of a PMI, a PMI-2, or a PMI-3 operator interface and central processor, a PSC-12 power supply and battery charger, a PTB power termination board, a DLC intelligent device loop controller or MLC MXL line card loop driver, and ZIC-4A zone indicating card.

The basic two DLC loop system can monitor up to 252 intelligent detectors and devices; the MLC’s two circuits can each monitor up to 60 MXL intelligent field devices and device accessories (relay bases, audible bases, and remote lamps) for a total of 120 devices. A basic FireFinder-XLS system provides up to 12 Amps of 24VDC power for use in driving the basic 4 notification appliance circuits. These supervised notification appliance circuits can be software configured for a wide variety of functions—such as standard NAC operation (bells, horns, chimes), strobes (synchronized or non-synchronized), coded audibles (Temporal Code 3, Marchtime, Zone Coded, etc.), Municipal Tie, Leased Line, Extinguishing agent releasing (HFC-227ea or Halon) or sprinkler pre-action and deluge applications. The PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3’s large easy-to-read VGA display simplifies system operator control.

By adding intelligent loop controller cards, a basic FireFinder-XLS system can be expanded to support up to 2500 intelligent detectors and devices spread across a flexible number of DLC or MLC (Fire only) loops. The system can also be expanded by adding additional CC-5 cardcages and power supplies to support conventional Form C relay modules, network interface cards for remote enclosure communication, conventional detectors and devices and solid state output modules—typically for use in driving graphic annunciators.

The FireFinder-XLS system’s operator interface is designed to make status information presentation clear and system control functions simple to operate. Through the use of soft function buttons on the system’s display, the user can easily “Acknowledge” events, “Silence” or “Unsilence” building audibles, or “Reset” the system. The system status presentation is structured to allow the different types of system events (such as Alarm, Supervisory, and Trouble) to be viewed independently. Each system event presents the user with a custom message describing the location and the type of event (eg. manual alarm, smoke, heat or waterflow). If additional details about the nature of the alarm report or its location are required, the user can depress the illuminated “More Info” button. Additional text messages, device specific details and simple graphic maps tell the user where they are in the building relative to the

alarm report for ease in locating the source of the alarm. For fire fighters using the system, standard NFPA Fire Service icons are presented to alert them to the availability of fire service equipment (stand pipe locations, sprinklers, building fire hoses, fire hydrants, etc.). Standard HazMat icons are also presented to notify responding officials of possible hazards or people in that area of the building. Standard NFPA 704 Hazard rating icons can also be used.

The microprocessor CPU at the heart of FireFinder-XLS rapidly processes logical decisions based on the status of the smoke detection and other initiating devices to control the system outputs. The object oriented software configuration tool, Zeus, is used to configure the FireFinder-XLS system’s operation based on the customer specified operating requirements.

The System continuously checks all software and hardware for proper operation. It checks all System memory components, control panel electronic hardware, and the System program. A hardware watchdog circuit is provided to ensure that System programs are functioning properly. If a problem develops with the program or processor, the watchdog circuit places the System into a trouble condition and resets it. Each module in the FireFinder-XLS System has its own microprocessor. To ensure reliable operation, if the main panel’s central processing unit stops, these modules, operating in degrade, still annunciate alarms and troubles through common lines called Any Alarm and Any Trouble. All of the modules communicate with the main FireFinderXLS central processor through an RS-485 network communications system.

While FireFinder-XLS is designed for multiple applications, such as security point monitoring, the fire alarm operation is always processed as the highest priority over all other operating modes. The exception to this is when the XLS is configured as a combined fire and mass notification system, in which case it can be configured to allow fire emergency events to have priority over mass notification events or vice versa.

The XNET and DNET networks allow connection of multiple FireFinder XLS panels into a single networked system and provide support for the optional Global Voice system.

The GCNET (Global Control Network) may be used to connect multiple XNET/DNET networks (each called a “Building”) into a single network. GCNET provides Galactic Voice Control across multiple Buildings from a single point, and provides support for galactic display of Fire events via Management Stations. GCNET is carried on a single Multimode or Single mode optical fiber.

The XLS Voice System with a ZAC-40 amplifier, when used in conjunction with Siemens Hi-Fidelity speakers, meets the requirement for low frequency signal tone as described in the section for Determination of Low Frequency Signal Format, in UL464, Standard for Audible Signal Appliance, suitable for sleeping areas as required by NFPA 72 Chapter 18.4.5 (2013 Edition). Refer to the Compatible Notification Appliances list, P/N 315-096363, for compatible speakers.

PSC-12 Power Supply The PSC-12 is a high current power supply that

provides the FireFinder-XLS system with primary regulated 24VDC. It is rated at 12A and has a built-in charger that is capable of charging up to 100AH batteries. It also has a microprocessor-controlled transfer circuit that allows the PSC-12 to switch the system power to stand-by batteries during loss or reduction of the AC power.

The PSC-12 incorporates an 18A circuit breaker on the battery input. It provides connection to a tamper switch and terminal tie points for system signals.

The PSC-12 communicates directly to the PMI to report fault conditions and allows the PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3 to query the status of the power supply. It has four programmable single pole double throw relays. Two relays are defaulted to activate when the degrade ALARM bus or degrade TROUBLE bus is asserted.

CC-5 Card Cage The CC-5 provides a central point for mount-

ing up to five circuit card assemblies. If a card requires power, it is applied through the removable terminal block at the bottom of the cardcage. All external devices for the card are connected to the card through the two removable terminal blocks at the top of

the cardcage.

CC-2 Card Cage The CC-2 provides a central point for

mounting up to two circuit card assemblies. If a card requires power, it is applied through the removable terminal block at the bottom of the cardcage. All external devices for the card are connected to the card through the two removable terminal blocks at the top of

the cardcage.

DLC Device Loop Card The DLC supports one loop (two isolated parallel zones) of up to 252

FireFinder-XLS intelligent field devices as well as device accessories (relay bases, audible bases, and remote lamps) in any combination. The DLC initializes, operates, and maintains all devices residing on the loop and communicates all relevant device and event information, such as alarms and

MLC MXL Line Card The MLC MXL line card loop driver allows MXL intelligent addressable

smoke detectors, manual stations, monitor devices, and control devices to interface to the FireFinder-XLS System. The MLC uses two addresses on the HNET network. The application program that is loaded into the on-board microprocessor controls the MLC operation.

The MLC initializes, operates, and maintains all devices residing on the loop. The MLC communicates all relevant device and event information, such as alarms and troubles, to the System CPU. The sensitivity of any intelligent smoke detector and the logic functions of any intelligent output devices can be checked and adjusted from the PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3 through the MLC. All information about the devices on the loop can be displayed on the PMI/PMI2/PMI-3.

The MLC supports two separate circuits. Each circuit can monitor and control up to 60 MXL intelligent field devices as well as device accessories (relay bases, audible bases, and remote lamps) in any combination for a total of 120 devices per MLC. The on-board microprocessor provides the MLC with the ability to function and initiate alarm conditions even if the main FireFinder-XLS CPU fails.

INTRODUCTION The PMI is the primary user interface for the FireFinder-XLS system. When the PMI is

installed, the display, LEDs and control keys/buttons are visible from behind a locked door. Unlock and open the door to gain access to those keys and buttons.

From the PMI the operator can acknowledge events, control the system notification appliance circuits and reset the system. Detailed information about the nature and location of events can also be displayed.

The PMI contains the site specific program as developed in the Zeus programming tool. All system logic and supervision is provided by the controller in the PMI. The PMI and the Zeus programming tool require compatible firmware/software. The tool will give a warning if the user attempts to use incompatible software to configure a system.

The PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3 contains a VGA LCD, Touch Screen and LEDs for displaying system status. An audible sounds when there are unacknowledged events on the PMI/ PMI-2/PMI-3. This screen is surrounded by keys that are used to control the displayed information and to navigate through these screens. If more items are present than can be displayed on a single screen, a scroll bar appears to the right of the list. Press the up and down navigation buttons to the right of the LCD to move through the list. The selected listing is highlighted in the display. Buttons are also provided to obtain help and to enter into the menu features of the PMI (Refer to Figure 3-1) and/or PMI2 (Refer to Figure 3-2).

The PMI displays four event types (Alarm, Trouble, Security, and Supervisory). The PMI-2/PMI-3 can display up to nine types, which are configurable in Zeus. In “legacy mode” (configurable at the node level in Zeus), a PMI-3 or PMI-2 running firmware version 12 or above will display only the four event types that are valid for the PMI (Alarm, Supervisory, Security, and Trouble). This allows a PMI-3 to be installed as a replacement for a
