  • Page 6: Section 1: Using This Manual

    Section 1: Using This Manual This manual provides a system design overview for High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net. It describes compatible fire alarm devices that can be linked to the network; network requirements and limitations; and configuration details, including those for NFPA Class B and Class X. High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net works with products that have been certified to comply with the requirements in the Standard for Control Units and Accessories for Fire Alarm Systems, UL 864 10h Edition.
  • Page 7: Section 2: Network Nodes & Features

    Section 2: Network Nodes & Features 2.1 Network Description 2.1.1 Overview High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net is a series of modules and products which allow a group of Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACPs) and other con- trol equipment to connect. Equipment that connects to High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net and communicates with other equipment using the net- work may be referred to as a network node.
  • Page 8 Network Nodes & Features Network Node Features NCD requires cabinet mounting, a High-Speed Network Communications Module and a +24 VDC filtered power source. This power can come from the control panel or from a regulated, power-limited remote power supply that is listed for Fire Protection Signaling use. High-Speed ONYXWorks Workstation.

    Network Interface Boards Network Nodes & Features 2.3 Network Interface Boards This section describes the boards that are physically connected together to form the network. “Network Node Features” in Section 2.2 describes the products that are compatible with the High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net. Network Interface Boards for Fire Alarm Control Panels, Digital Audio Systems, and Intelligent Annunciators The High-Speed Network Communications Module (HS-NCM) provides a physical communication interface between the NFS2-3030,...
  • Page 10: Section 3: Network Configurations

    Section 3: Network Configurations 3.1 Point-to-Point Configuration A point-to-point wiring configuration is defined as a segment with only two nodes/repeaters attached to it. In a point-to-point configura- tion, two nodes/repeaters are interconnected by a single circuit that is terminated at each port (Refer to Figure 3.1 and Figure 3.3 for wir- ing configurations).
  • Page 11: Nfpa Class X Configurations

    NFPA Class X Configurations Network Configurations In an NFPA Class B fiber-optic system, a single break will result in loss of communication between network nodes. In Figure 3.2, the fragment to the left of the break cannot receive information from the fragment to the right of the break. The fragment to the right of the break cannot receive information from the fragment to the left of the break.
  • Page 12: Network Wiring For Ground Fault Detection

    Network Configurations Network Wiring for Ground Fault Detection 3.4 Network Wiring for Ground Fault Detection Because the twisted-pair communication link between adjacent nodes is isolated from other nodes through the HS-NCM (transformer coupling), a single ground fault on one of the wires will have no effect on circuit operation. Network ground fault detection from a node power supply may be enabled or disabled with switches on the HS-NCM-W and ONYX- Works-HNW.
  • Page 13 Network Wiring for Ground Fault Detection Network Configurations • EXAMPLE 2: By setting the ground fault detect switch (SW4) on the repeater to the OFF position, both nodes may provide their own ground fault detection (refer to Figure 3.6). The left node provides ground fault detection up to the repeater, and thus must be one of the ground fault detection nodes defined on page 12.
  • Page 14 Network Configurations Network Wiring for Ground Fault Detection • EXAMPLE 5: Example 4 above shows the HS-NCM shared by two network nodes. If the network wiring is being monitored by an adjacent node (refer to Figure 3.9), the Ground Fault switch (SW4) on the shared HS-NCM should be set to OFF. The power supply Ground Fault detection for each is dependent on the requirements of their respective network nodes.

    Appendix A: Compatibility with Other Systems The High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net is compatible with Honeywell, Johnson Controls and Tyco/Unimode Systems UL 864 9th Edition prod- ucts as described below: NOTE: Each product can only be networked with products of the same brand. Do not mix multiple brands on the same network.
