ORION-BCM LSC
Addressable Battery Charger Module with Integrated
Loop Sounder Circuit
INSTALLATION MANUAL
OVERVIEW
The ORION-BCM LSC is a self contained EN54-4 Battery Charger Module with an integrated Loop Sounder Circuit
that is controlled and monitored through GFE addressable loop. It also incorporates internal Alarm and Fault relays.
When connected to the analo
gue detection loop of any of GFE’s analogue addressable panels, the ORION-BCM LSC
occupies two consecutive addresses in the loop. In addition to the PSU output for powering external devices, it also includes
a Conventional Sounder output, which substantially increases its scope of usage. Activation of sounder output can be
achieved either by addressable system cause-effect programming as a normal addressable sounder or directly at the
ORION-BCM (access code required).
An internal monitoring system continuously checks all circuits, ensuring fault detection and notification, listed below. In
addition to local notification, status is also reported to addressable system.
● Sounder Circuit Integrity Fault
● Battery Charger Fault (voltage level and charging behaviour)
● Mains Fault (voltage level) and Earth Fault
● Output Supply
Voltage Level
● Communications Fault (On the Addressable Panel)
● General System Fault (by the means of independent watchdog system).
MAIN FEATURES
● Voltage-free inputs to activate built-in Relay for controlling Door Holders and Sounder Circuit
● One supervised Conventional Sounder Circuit
● Dedicated battery charger (Secondary Supply) for Sounder Circuit and Auxiliary Power
● Addressable Loop Interface with fault report feedback (supervision) and sounder activation acknowledgement /control
● Two relays output for Fault (NC) and Fire (SPDT) signal - unmonitored
● Supervised 24V Supply Output with 900mA
● EN54-4 Compliant
ORION-BCM LSC
has the following local controls:
● Internal Buzzer Silence
● System Reset
● Lamp Test
● Sounders circuit ON/OFF operation
● Disable Auxiliary Outputs
● Disable Sounders
The ORION-BCM LSC Module will reset each time the Addressable Loop is restarted as an integrating part of the whole
Addressable system.
