Introduction to the 4100U Fire Alarm System
Introduction
In this Chapter
The 4100/4100U is an expandable fire alarm system that can be used as a standalone
system with one host panel, or as a wide-ranging system with several remote cabinets,
with or without multiple host panels. This chapter is an overview of standalone,
MINIPLEX, and network 4100 system concepts.

System Configurations
Overview
The 4100U is available as a standalone system with one host panel, or as an expansive
system with several remote back boxes, with or without multiple host panels. The type of
configuration used depends on the size of the site into which it is being installed.
The following types of configurations are offered:
Standalone. Comprised of one FACP and its assorted warning devices, initiating devices,
and signaling line circuit devices.
MINIPLEX. A standalone system plus remote transponder cabinets, which allow for
additional slave modules to be used. Typically used for multi-level buildings and small
multi-building applications.
Network. A multi-FACP system connected by network cards. Each panel maintains the
status and control of its own circuit points while monitoring and controlling activity at
other locations. Network nodes may perform similar tasks, or may be dedicated to
specific functions.
This chapter outlines the fundamental concepts of each configuration.

Standalone Configuration
Overview
System Design
The standalone version of the 4100U is used for smaller or single-building applications. A
standalone system is ideally placed into a small building that requires a limited number of
notification appliances and initiating devices.
If a small building is being expanded, or if other buildings are being constructed in the
same general area (as in a campus application), the standalone 4100U can be expanded
into one of the larger systems described later.
The standalone 4100U uses one FACP (one, two, or three bays) containing the following:
• CPU
• System Power Supply for the 4100U (Universal Power Supply for the 4100)
• Optional slave cards
All appliances and devices are connected to that one FACP, as shown in Figure 1-1.

MINIPLEX Configuration
Overview
System Design
The MINIPLEX version of the 4100 Fire Alarm System, which is designed for
moderately larger applications than the standalone configuration, allows up to 1000
monitor and/or control points and 2000 annunciator points to be controlled by a single
FACP.
Like the standalone system, only one CPU is used. Remote Unit Interface (RUI) data, and
optionally power is distributed from the host panel to remote boxes called transponder cabinets. The exact system design varies, depending on whether the system is a 4100 or a
4100U:
• 4100U: Transponder interface cards (TICs), located in transponder cabinets, take
the RUI data directly from the CPU motherboard and distribute it to modules nearby,
thereby expanding the system’s status from standalone to MINIPLEX.
• 4100: Remote interface cards (RICs), located in transponder cabinets, take the RUI
data and optionally power from the remote unit interface (RUI) card in the host panel
and distribute it to modules nearby, thereby expanding the system’s status from
standalone to MINIPLEX.
The MINIPLEX 4100 FACP must contain the following:
• CPU
• System Power Supply for the 4100U (Universal Power Supply for the 4100)
• 4100 only (non-4100U): Remote unit interface (RUI) Card
• Optional slave cards
Each transponder cabinet, meanwhile, must contain a Transponder Interface Card (TIC)
and any number of optional slave cards.

MINIPLEX Configuration, Continued
RUI Communication
The 4100 internal comms bus may be used to carry data from the CPU in the main cabinet
to expansion equipment in a co-located cabinet. 4100 data from the CPU may be routed to
remote cabinets (RTUs) in a MINIPLEX system by using the external RUI comms bus.
An RUI line, routed from either the CPU Motherboard in the 4100U, or the RUI card in
the 4100, allows the data to travel long distances. Once the RUI line terminates at a
remote cabinet, the TIC (4100U) or RIC (4100) in that cabinet distributes the CPU’s data
to the other modules within the cabinet.
Power has to be supplied locally within each RTU, or routed from the main FIP.
Figure 1-2, below, outlines this process in a typical MINIPLEX setup.

Network Configuration
Overview
Hub and Star
Configurations
The 4100 can be expanded to a network system by using network interface cards (NICs).
When a NIC is installed into a 4100 host panel, it is used to connect to other network
nodes. Nodes may consist of other host 4100 panels, or they may be completely different:
Graphical Command Centers (GCCs), and Visual Command Centers (VCCs) are all
examples of what could be used as nodes. A node is a self-sufficient CPU that controls
appliances and devices, which also has the capability of controlling and communicating
with other nodes.
The network configuration supports two prevalent architectures (or wiring
configurations): hub (or ring), or star. A networked system can also use a combination of
the two.
The hub configuration consists of a main loop with nodes connected in a radial manner.
The star configuration consists of several nodes connected directly to one common node.
Physical bridge cards are used for the star configuration. Physical bridges reduce the
amount of wire that would otherwise be needed to connect all nodes in a loop, and
therefore cut down on system response time. A combination of the two styles is illustrated
in Figure 1-3.

Connecting Loops
Physical Bridge Link
Network loops can be joined via physical bridge cards. There may be no more than two
Style 7 network loops (two hub configurations) connected in tandem. For every two
loops that are interconnected (using one physical bridge), there can be a maximum of
three physical bridges used in a star configuration. See Figure 1-4.

Communication
To be used as a network node, a 4100 panel must contain the following:
• CPU
• System Power Supply
• 4100 Network Interface Card
• Optional slave cards
Network communication is achieved via 4100-6014 or 4100-6035 Network Interface
Cards (NICs). Each network node requires a NIC. Once the FACP is a network node, it
may be programmed to be fully in control of other nodes, or to be fully passive, or
anywhere in between.

Introduction
Chapter 2
Installing 4100U FACP Components
4100U cabinets are available in one-, two-, and three-bay sizes. Each can be equipped
with a solid or perspex door. This chapter describes how to mount all types of 4100U
cabinets to a wall, and how to mount system card bays into the cabinets, modules to bays,
etc.
FACPs are assembled to order within the factory. Steps 2 to 6 below are therefore not
typically required in the field, but are included in case of in-field system expansion.
The section Introduction to FACPs describes the various components that make up the
FACP.
The assembly drawings 1976-136, 1976-137 are included in the appendix of this manual
for reference.

Introduction to FACPs (4100U)
Overview
CPU Bay
4100U FACPs cabinets contain the CPU, operator interface, system power supply (SPS),
backup batteries, and any additional modules that the panel requires. The FACP is the
central hub (often referred to as a host panel) of a standalone or MINIPLEX fire alarm
system. In a networked system, the FACP can be connected to other system FACPs, so
that each host panel is a node on the network.
In the standard (USA) version of 4100U the CPU bay contains an SPS, the Master
Motherboard with CPU Daughter card, but no PDI to which 4” x 5” cards (e.g. IDNet
card) can be fitted. Also, it has the Operator Interface (I/F) on its front, so no switch/LED
display modules can be fitted to it.
In the Australian version the SPS is fitted to a bracket behind a side-hinged 4U door that
has the Operator I/F on it. The Master Motherboard (i.e. CPU Motherboard) is fitted to
the right hand side of an expansion bay mounted directly below. This bay has a PDI
fitted so can house 4”x 5”cards and Switch/LED Display Modules.
