Quadnet Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual

Cabinet Installation
This backbox is compatible with the Quadnet range of Fire Alarm Control
Equipment and is common to the range of control panels, repeater panels and
power supply units.
Surface Mounting
At least four of the five mounting holes should be used to secure the cabinet to a
solid wall using suitable screws of at least 50mm in length. Ensure that a minimum
gap of 50mm is left between the sides of the backbox and any wall or projection
(such as another box). On the left hand side, a larger gap of 320mm must be left to
allow future removal of the CIE door in situ.
Cable Entry
The cable entry locations available will depend on the type of unit that is intended, and it is important to note
which cable entry areas are suitable for each derivative.
Quadnet Control Panel
The two rows of knockouts at the top are suitable.
The two rows of knockouts in the rear at the top
are suitable.
The main rear face must be kept clear for
mounting the electronics.
The two rows of knockouts at the bottom are
suitable.

Control Panel Assembly
This is the reverse of the disassembly process above.
To refit the front left hand door, which houses the panel controls, the right hand door must be opened. The
left hand door should then be lined up with the hinge pins and then gently closed. Closing the door will
cause the hinge pins to pop back into the door.
The ribbon cables are labelled Ribbon A, Ribbon B, Ribbon C and Ribbon D on both the front door PCB and
the backplane. These cables must be reconnected as follows: Ribbon A on the front panel PCB to Ribbon A
on the backplane, Ribbon B on the front panel PCB to Ribbon B on the backplane and so on.
