    1. Introduction The Syncro Focus/Focus+ LCD repeater is a display and control unit which duplicates the indications and primary controls of Syncro fire alarm control panels connected to the same network. The repeater connects to the control panel via the network interface and requires that the main control panel have an S555 network card fitted.

    4. Cabling Cables should be brought into the cabinet using the knockouts provided and where necessary, using couplers to maximise the space within the enclosure. Inlet bushings or cable glands should be used to maintain insulation of signal cores from earth. The screen or drain wires should be bonded to the earth terminals provided.

  • Page 8: Cable Length

    12. Cable Length The Syncro network communications protocol has been designed to be extremely tolerant to interference and data corruption, however as with any system, there have to be limitations set to guarantee correct operation. The specified transmission distance limit for the communications method used is 1200 metres and because the data is re-transmitted at each network card and repeater, in theory, there can be 1200 metres between each point if required.

    13. Cable Type The cable type used for the network connection should be suitable for RS-485 applications and equivalent to the ones listed below. Up to 600 metres distance between panels BELDEN NOMINAL NOMINAL NOMINAL VELOCITY OF NUMBER OUTSIDE CAPACITANCE IMPEDANCE PROPOGATION DIAMETER...
  • Page 10: Wiring Scheme

    14. Wiring Scheme Syncro Network Cabling Cabling wired as a ring which visits all panels. Short circuit detection at each network connection and automatic isolation of the shorted section of cable. 1200 metres maximum cable length between two adjacent segments A short circuit at point A will automatically disconnect the shorted section and announce a fault condition at all panels but the entire network will continue communicating.
