Fire Control Panel FS4000
1. Introduction
Fire control panel FS4000 is an up-to-date, highly reliable, multifunctional and versatile unit. It is
designed to receive signals from manual call points and automatic fire detectors, releasing sound and
light indication. The fire control panel provides options for connection of external signal and executive
units.
2. Terminology
DELAY OF OUTPUTS – delay of activation of controllable and relay outputs with a certain period
of time from the moment a fire condition is registered. Typically, the delay period is sufficient for the
staff to inspect the premises indicated by the fire control panel. The delay is eliminated through
activation of a manual call point (response current
≥
40mA at 24V) or by a fire condition in another
line. The delay time is user programmable and is equal for all fire alarm lines.
DISABLED LINE – a switched off
line
, without power supply, not controlled for activated fire
detectors and fault condition. This condition is user defined. The indication for a disabled line includes
common light indication and separate light indication for each line.
DISABLED OUTPUTS –
the controllable output
and
the relay output
are switched off (executing
devices can not be activated) and are not monitored for a fault condition. This feature is user defined.
The indication for a disabled controllable output includes common light indication and separate light
indication for the controllable output.
GROUNDS – non-system
non-fatal fault condition
, due to leakage to a grounded wire.
CONTROLLABLE OUTPUT – potential output that monitors the serviceability of the connection
wires between the fire control panel and the executing device.
SHORT CIRCUIT IN A LINE OR IN A CONTROLLABLE OUTPUT – non-system
non-fatal fault
condition
due to registered current value in a
line
or in a
controllable output
that exceeds a specified
threshold value.
LINE IN TEST – a
line
set by the user to Test condition. The line is powered and reset (the power
is cut off for 3 s) periodically every 64 s. The events registered in a line in Test condition are not
saved in the archive and do not trigger associated outputs nor light and sound signalling. The
indication for a line in Test condition is common light indication and separate light indication for each
line.
LOCAL SOUNDER - sounder built-in the fire control panel
NON-FATAL FAULT CONDITION – fault condition that allows the fire control panel to continue
operation. A non-fatal fault condition is usually a
non-system
fault condition. The indication is common
light indication, local sound indication and text messages on the LCD display.
ACCESS LEVEL – access level to various indications and control functions.
LOW BATTERY – non-system
fatal fault condition
due to full discharge of the backup batteries
upon interrupted power supply.
SUPRESSED OUTPUT –
controllable
or
relay
output which should normally be activated upon
Fire condition, but is manually switched off by the user.
FIRE ALARM LINE (further on it will be referred as LINE) – a combination of automatic fire
detectors and manual call points, physically connected by the means of two-wire connection. The
basic configuration of FS 4000 includes 2 lines; the maximum configuration includes 8 lines. Up to 32
fire detectors can be integrated into one line.
