Fire Alarm & Emergency Communication System Limitations While a life safety system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for life and property insurance! An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke (caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materi- detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning als, etc.).

Intelligent Sensing Applications Pre-Alarm C.3.3 Action Level Action Functions If you program a detector for Action Pre-Alarm and the detector reaches a level that exceeds the programmed Pre-Alarm level, the control panel indicates an Action condition. Indication at the panel is the same as in Figure C.6 above. The control panel does the following functions when a detector reaches the programmed pre-alarm level: •...
Detector Sensitivity Settings Intelligent Sensing Applications C.4 Detector Sensitivity Settings C.4.1 How to Select Pre-Alarm and Alarm Sensitivity Each detector provides a host of selectable intelligent options. The control panel provides nine levels of Pre-Alarm (PA:1–PA:9) and Alarm (AL:1–AL:9) in percent per foot obscuration: •...
Detector Maintenance Features Intelligent Sensing Applications C.5 Detector Maintenance Features C.5.1 Overview The NF2S-640 provides features to check the maintenance performance level of addressable, intelligent detectors. Detector maintenance features include the following: • View detector maintenance information for an individual detector •...
Intelligent Sensing Applications Detector Maintenance Features C.5.4 Print a Detector Maintenance Report A Detector Maintenance Report lists detector maintenance status for each installed addressable detector [except FDX-551(an analog heat detector)]. When you press and enter the P key the control panel sends a Detector Maintenance Report (Figure C.8) to the printer connected to the control panel.

Detector Maintenance Features Intelligent Sensing Applications Alarm Reading (000%) The current alarm reading of the detector, as a percentage of the Alarm Sensitivity setting. Alarm Sensitivity Setting (A8) The Alarm Sensitivity (x=1-9) entered in the Detector Sensitivity Screen. Pre-Alarm Sensitivity Setting (8) The Pre-Alarm Sensitivity (1-9; 0 = Pre-Alarm not used) entered in the Detector Settings Screen.
Appendix D: CBE (Control-By-Event) D.1 Description CBE (Control-By-Event) is a software function that provides a means to program a variety of output responses based on various initiating events. The control panel operates Control-By-Event (CBE) through 99 Software Zones with the following features: •...
Equation Entry CBE (Control-By-Event) D.4 Equation Entry The equations must be entered using the VeriFire™ Tools Program Utility. All are subject to the maximum number of arguments possible in a logic instruction as discussed above (Item Number 9 on page 106). D.4.1 Logic Functions The “AND”...
CBE (Control-By-Event) Equation Entry Example: AND(RANGE(Z1,Z20)) Zone 1 through Zone 20 must all be in alarm for the output point to be activated. D.4.2 Equation Syntax Example OR(AND(L1D1,L1D4),AND(L2D6,L2M3,NOT(L2M4)),ANY2(L1M13,L1M14,L1M15)) Equation begins with a logic or time delay function - OR 67 Characters (maximum of 73) - includes parentheses and commas. 5 Logic Functions (maximum of 10) - OR, AND, AND, NOT and ANY2.
CBE Example CBE (Control-By-Event) D.4.5 Time Delay Functions The “DEL” Operator Used for delayed operation Example: DEL(HH:MM:SS,HH:MM:SS,ZE5) • The first HH:MM:SS is the delay time, the second HH:MM:SS is the duration time. • If delay of zero is entered (00.00.00), the equation will evaluate true as soon as the internal equation (ZE5) evaluates true and will remain that way for the specified duration, unless the internal equation becomes false.
Appendix E: Detector Initialization E.1 Overview The control panel automatically performs a detector initialization routine when you add or change a detector, unless the control panel is in Walk Test or Advanced Walk Test. If you change a detector with the control panel in Walk Test or Advanced Walk Test, you must manually initialize the detector as detailed in “How to Manually Initialize a Detector”...
How to Manually Initialize a Detector Detector Initialization E.4 How to Manually Initialize a Detector You only need to manually initialize a detector when you change a detector during Walk Test or Advanced Walk Test. If, however, you replace a detector with a different type of detector, you must immediately program the new detector according to the instructions in “How to Replace a Detector”...
Appendix F: Type Codes F.1 What are Type Codes? Type Codes are software selections for initiating devices (detectors and monitor modules) and output devices (control modules and NACs). Some Type Codes are self-explanatory; that is, the Type Code matches the function of the device, such as a “Monitor” for a monitor module, “Photo” for a photoelectric detector, and so on.
