Ancillary Devices
Detection
Standard devices include Photoelectric, Ionisation (which will be obsolete by Dec 2007), Multimode
heat and the replacement for the Ion, the OptoThermal.
The heat detector defaults to RoR when the panel is in Auto learn, these must be set to the required
value RoR, BS (fixed 60 deg) or CS (fixed 78 deg) before upload or download to the laptop.
The OptoThermal has both an optical smoke chamber and a heat element that work in tandem such
that the smoke half becomes more sensitive when heat is also present.
Each element will also work independently such that the heat is fixed temp 60 deg (A1S) and the
optical has slightly reduced sensitivity (but remains within the tolerances laid down by EN54).
The OptoThermal and heat detectors are capable of responding to Day/Night programming described
on page 27
Call points
Call points are supplied as Surface, Flush mounted and IP 67 Weatherproof. Various accessories can
be fitted such as the hinged protective cover, recessing bezel and resettable plastic element.
Generally the inputs of this device are used primarily for Fire, but the Input programming in Site
Installer gives the options of setting them to fire, fault, reset, silence, pre-alarm and evacuate.
A call point can also be used to initiate day night mode, isolate addresses or zones or be set to non-
latching.
Sounders
Sounders, beacons, sounder beacons all appear on the DF6000 device list as alarm/beacons and a
maximum of 60 are allowed per loop, the panel and site installer treats them all the same for
programming purposes.
The site installer allows 3 stages for the device outputs and various options can be chosen at each
stage. Delays can ONLY be used on stage 1. (There is NO hierarchy on the stages whichever setting
fulfils the requirement the sounder/beacon will comply with that setting)
The settings i.e. sound or volume for the sounders can be done globally at the panel or individually on
site installer.
Input/Output Devices
MIO1240
is a single input single output device. The output takes the form of a mains rated relay
capable of switching up to 8A.
The Input spur is used to monitor a set of volt free contacts the end of line being 22k and a firing
resistance of 5k6.
Programming of the output has the same features as the sounder outputs. The Input programming is
the same as programming for the call point.
