connected.

the above limitations are exceeded.
4.2 Selecting the installation location
4.2.1 Fire protection system requirements
The fire alarm control and indicating panel or the operating device is to be installed in a room
adjacent to the main entrance, the surveillance area or an access that is always accessible by
the fire brigade in the event of a fire.
The control and indicating panel should be installed as close as possible to the fire brigade
operating panel.
The maximum cable length for the loop/spur peripherals should also be taken into account
when selecting the location of the control and indicating panel.
It may be advisable to install a number of SIGMASYS C control and indicating panels in the
case of large-scale objects.
The alarm system’s operator terminal should be permanently monitored by trained personnel.
If this is not possible for operational reasons, alarm and fault signals must be forwarded to a
responsible service (see DIN VDE 0833).
