Appendix E
– describes 4100-1282 AZF Switch and LED Address mapping.
Appendix F
– describes useful pseudo points and lists for when working on a 4100U
panel, especially when chasing intermittent faults.
1.2 Before you start
To get the job done with the minimum of problems and re-work, get the project specific data
sent to you via email or in writing
– this helps keep track of the project details and changes.
You will need the cards and addressable loop/s details, including the devices types,
description/label and zoning. If there are zoned output trips, they should be defined via a
“cause and effect” matrix. Microsoft Excel or similar is very good for this purpose.
The most variable programming details are related to sprinkler flowswitch functionality and
AS1668 Fan and Damper control. Get the requirements resolved as soon as possible,
otherwise you may need to partially re-program so the required functionality is met.
Flowswitches may require:
Delayed activation
– if so, how long is the delay?
Latching or non-latching operation.
ANDing with a Sprinkler Pressure Switch
– to reduce unwanted alarms.
Which outputs will be tripped and are the outputs to latch?
AS1668 operation depends on the Mechanical Services Board/s and their functionality.
In some cases, general trip and zone trips are all that is required, with the Mech Board
starting and stopping the correct fans. In other cases, full start and stop control for smoke
management (with the manual controls in Auto position) is required by the panel.
Will fan operations be limited to manual Start/Stop control?
Will some fans be required to start (or stop) on any alarm
– e.g. stair pressurization fans.
Will some fans be required to start (or stop) on specific zones in alarm
– e.g. sandwich
Pressurization/smoke management?
Note: Dampers are programmed the same as exhaust fans.
The actual programming consists of four stages:
1. Adding/editing cards and addressable devices.
2. Adding the detection devices into pre-defined lists.
3. Adding/editing custom control, panel LEDs and switches mapping.
4. Build and download.
Follow the above sequence and the instructions in this guide - the programming will be
straight forward, especially if the templates are used to start the project file.
