7.3 Connecting a Stratos-Micra 100 to an addressable Fire Panel
An Addressable Protocol Interface Card (APIC) may be used to decode detector infor-
mation and to relay this to a Fire Panel.
The APIC is fitted to the four mounting studs on the Stratos-Micra 100 PCB using the
supplied screws as shown below:
The connections to the Fire Panel are made using the BUS L1 and H1 (bus 1 input and
output) and the BUS L2 and H2 (bus 1 input and output) terminal connectors shown
in Section 6.2.2.
The only settings that need to be made are on the APIC address DIP switches. The start
loop address Is entered on SW1 and the end loop address on SW2. In the case of a sin-
gle Stratos-Micra 100 the start and end addresses will be the same.
NB:
The detector address on the SenseNET loop and the Fire Panel addressable protocol
address are the same, i.e. no address translation is performed. Some protocols may not sup-
port all the available alarm levels and fault reporting is usually a general fault with no
detailed fault information. Please consult the specific APIC protocol documentation for more
information.
