Introduction
Interactions
12
Building Technologies A6V10062437_a_en
CPS Fire Safety
30.01.2019

1.1 Interactions

The unit can be programmed to support interactions between the connected subsystems: when a specified message is received from a source subsystem, one or more commands are generated for a destination subsystem according to the programmed interaction logic.
Interactions can be
local
or
network-wide
:
Local interactions only involve the subsystems connected to a single unit. Network-wide interactions involve subsystems connected on different units,
which coordinate the interaction task over the network. Network-wide interactions require units supporting the BACnet protocol.
Note: NK8000 units are not certified as part of an EN54-2 fire detection system. Therefore, the interactions should only be used in applications where they are not in conflict with EN54 standards or national guidelines or regulations (e.g., not for common control of remote transmission devices).
Note: NK8231 and NK8237 do not support interactions.
Both local and network-wide interactions are supported for a restricted list of subsystems:
FS20 Sinteso Fire control units (this subsystem is not supported by NK822x) FS720 Cerberus PRO Fire control units (this subsystem is not supported by
NK822x), excluding FC721, which does not support BACnet connections to management stations

DHCP is currently not supported. A static IP address is required. For security reasons, SNMP monitoring is not supported.
Serial capabilities (downstream towards subsystems and upstream towards local management system host)
NK8235: The maximum number of serial lines is 4, allowing connection up to 4 local units (intrusion, access control, fire, gas detection, CCTV control units). Two serial lines are available on the mainboard and two on an expansion module. The serial lines can also be used for a local host, a dial-up host or a Modbus RTU connection to a 3rd party Modbus master device.
Note: The two serial lines on the expansion module (COM3, COM4) do not support the hardware-handshaking signals for modem control (Rx, Tx, and GND only).
NK8232: The maximum number of serial lines is 2 (on the mainboard). Only one connection to a local unit (intrusion, access control, fire, gas detection, CCTV control units) is allowed. The second line can be used for a local host, a dial-up host or a Modbus RTU connection to a third-party Modbus master device.
NK8231: The maximum number of serial lines is 2 (on the mainboard). Only one connection to a local intrusion unit is allowed. Only one Ethernet interface with CEI 79-5 upstream protocol is supported (no redundant connectivity to hosts).
In all NK823x models, two serial ports can be configured as an RS232 interface using connector COM1 and COM2, or as an RS485 interface using connectors X104 and X105. The NK8235 RS485 interface can handle up to 32 Modbus devices.
LON bus connectivity
The NK823x Ethernet Ports do not have a LON interface. NK823x supports CS6 Guarto intrusion detection system via a USB network interface (see

Default LON address settings for communications with Guarto MP3 on NK22xx rotary switches
LON address assignment for CS6 Guarto MP3
The LON communication between NK822x and CS6 Guarto is based on logical BACnet addresses for both devices.
The physical LON address of the NK822x LON interface is configurable, whereas the logical BACnet address of NK822x is fixed.
The default physical LON address of NK822x is:
Subnet
: 01
Node
: 02
The logical BACnet address of NK822x is fixed to 1. This address has to be con­figured in the CS6 Guarto using the tool SWE6 for Guarto MP3 (Node CerCom Bus, properties of node Management Station).
Note: The physical LON addresses and the logical BACnet addresses must be unique in a LON-network. Guarto MP2b is no longer supported in NK8000 MP3.15 and higher.
