Chapter 1 Introduction to the 4100ES Fire Alarm System The 4100ES is an expandable fire alarm system that can be used as a standalone system Introduction with one host panel, or as a wide-ranging system with several remote cabinets, with one or more host panels.
System"} 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 4100ES can be expanded into one of the larger systems described later. The standalone 4100ES uses one FIP (one, two, or three bays) containing the following: System Design ...

"transponder interface card (TIC): RUI and"}{xe "RUI (remote unit interface): about"} Once the RUI line terminates at a remote cabinet, the TIC (4100ES) in that cabinet distributes the CPU’s data to the other modules within the cabinet.
The 4100ES can be expanded to become a network system by using network interface Overview cards (NICs). When a NIC is installed into a 4100ES host panel, it is used to connect to other network nodes. Nodes may be other host 4100 panels, or they may be other things such as Graphical Command Centers (GCCs), and Visual Command Centers (VCCs).

AS 1670.1 requires fire alarm warning systems to produce sounds complying with Overview AS 2220 or ISO 8201. One way of meeting this requirement in a 4100ES system is to use a T-GEN 50 tone generator, which is capable of driving up to 50W of load on a 100V speaker line.
Page 90
The T-GEN 50 should not be powered from a NAC output. T-GEN 50 draws a large in- rush current when it is first turned on, which produces an “SPS Over Current” fault in the system that can only be cleared by pressing the 4100ES System Reset button. This is not acceptable operation.

Chapter 9 PC Software Connections The service port on the door with the Operator Interface enables the 4100ES to connect to Introduction PCs running important utilities, such as diagnostics, programming, CPU firmware downloading, and channel monitoring. The recommended connection method is using the Ethernet service port. However, a serial data connection can be used if the Ethernet option is not available for some reason.

This mode provides application startup messages, a command line interface to diagnostic commands, and event reporting. This is the default mode when a PC is connected to the 4100ES serial service port (Figure 9 1). The PC must be running terminal emulation software, e.g., Hyperterm. The ES Programmer provides a suitable terminal emulation program for this.

Alignment & Adjustment All the 4100ES cards and modules are tested and aligned in the factory before being Overview supplied to the customer or fitted to a FIP. The only field adjustment that may be necessary is to set the battery charger voltage. This has been set and should not need re- adjusting.
Page 125
Maintenance The 4100ES system must be kept free from faults and tested on a regular basis to verify that it is operating correctly. The tests required by the standard AS 1851 Maintenance of Fire Protection Equipment are detailed in the 4100ES InfoAlarm Operator’s Manual, LT0568.

Earth Fault Search is conducted by the FIP. The diagnostic may be activated using either the front panel interface or the Computer Port Protocol (CPP), via a service port. The 4100ES supports two types of Earth Fault Searches: Location Search. Searches all circuits at a location, such as a transponder or the main panel.
Earth Fault Search detects only one fault at a time. Multiple faults require fixing the first fault and then repeating the search. The 4100ES panel suspends normal operation for the duration of the Earth Fault Search. Location Earth Fault Searches optionally allow exclusion of auxiliary power circuits from the search, so that modules connected to the 24 V auxiliary outputs can remain in operation during the search.
Access Level Selection refer to the InfoAlarm Operator Manual supplied with the 4100ES, for the detail of how to log in at a higher level than 1. You can now open the diagnostic menu as described in the next topic.

Search Results, Continued If the message reads FAULT NOT FOUND (for a Location Earth Fault Search) or Fault Not Found FAULT CLEAR FAIL (for an IDNet Channel Earth Fault Search), it means the search could not locate the fault, but it acknowledges that a fault exists. There are several main possibilities behind this message: ...
