SET ZONE:
Once a zone has been programmed (refer to programming on page 15) you can
perform the following:
This allows you to join any programmed zone to either the Port or Stb (FEC-6) Engine Relay
Controller (if the vessel is single engine room then just select Port). Scroll with the Select Up
or Down key through the programmed zones, until you find the zone required, and then press
the Ent key to accept.
REMOVE ZONE:
This removes the association of a zone that is associated with either the Port or Stb (FEC-6)
Engine Relay Controller. NOTE: This only removes the association and NOT the zone.
ENGINE STOP TIME:
This sets the time delay for Relay 4 on the FEC-6. If the solenoid on the extinguisher bottles
is connected Relay 4 and the stop time is set for example to 30 seconds, this would give a 30
second window for the fans and engine (connected to Relay 1 & 2) to stop before the
extinguisher is set off. Also see page 14 for details.
.
AUTO / MANUAL: (Default = Manual)
If Auto mode is selected and there is a fire in the zone that the FEC-6 is attached (e.g. Engine
room) you will NOT be asked if you want to shut down the fans and engine the system will
automatically do it. If manual is selected the system will ask you. See Relays page 14.
EXTINGUISHER SWITCH INPUT:
The extinguisher bottle pressure switch may be connected to the Engine Room Relay
Controller (FEC-6) see page 10 for details. This input is monitored and if the extinguisher
bottle is empty the Master Display will display “Empty” if full it will display “OK”.
Input 1, 2, 3 and 4 are all internally connected in the FEC-6 so multiple bottles may be
connected. If multiple bottles are connected and one is empty the display will show “Empty”
therefore all bottles will need to be inspected to locate the empty one.
Scroll down to ENGINE CONTROLLER at the Set-Up Menu and press the Ent key.
Now scroll down to EXTINGUISHER INPUT and press the Ent key.
This set-up is the same as in Step 2 page 15.
Use the Select keys to scroll to the zone you want to use, select the name as in Step 3 page
15 then press the Ent key.
The display will now show:
Use the Select Up or Down key to scroll between Port and Stb, (if the vessel is single engine
room then just select Port) and press the Ent key to accept
.
Note: The end of line resistor is NOT required for this input.
