Synoptic repeater
The synoptic repeater panel performs the same functions as the repeater and, in addition, it manages dynamically or on request
up to 32
fl oor plans with up to 32 interactive icons each.
Additional power supply
The system provides for the use of additional power supplies, which allow to increase the power supply and autonomy of the system.
The power supplies can be freely distributed within the infrastructure of the loop. The Tecno
fi re power supplies are constantly supervised
by the control panel and comply with the applicable standard EN 54-4-A2:2006.
Zones
Each zone may control 1 to 32 detection and/or actuation devices, typically detectors and modules (maximum number of devices de fi ned
by EN 54). The control panel controls up to 150 zones, which can be specialized as fi re zones or technical zones.
Virtual zones
The control panel can manage up to 100 virtual zones. The virtual zone is an abstract set which includes detection and/or actuation devices,
typically detectors and modules. The virtual zones do not cause any kind of alarm noti
fi cation, but can be recalled as operands within formulas.
The virtual zone may consist of devices, belonging to different loops and even to other virtual zones.
Formulas
The formulas determine the rules of behavior affecting the operation of the devices, on the basis of the dynamic behavior of the system.
Alarm plans
Each fi re or technical zone can be associated with a speci fi c alarm plan that, in the event of an alarm, is viewed by the control panel
and the repeaters of the system.
The alarm plan informs the operators about the behavior and the measures to be taken to deal with the alarm in the speci
fi c zone.
Programmable outputs
In addition to the mandatory alarm, failure and reset outputs, the control panel features 2 programmable outputs. For each of them it is possible
to program a function and the logic status (standard or reversed).
Access periods
The control panel manages 8 access periods that can be recalled as operands within formulas governing the operation of the output modules,
sirens and optical-acoustic alarm devices.
The access periods invoked within a formula perform the operation requested by the associated operand.
The access periods can also be used to enable the monitored system mode.
Customizable calendar
The control panel is equipped with a customizable four-year calendar that manages all the operations controlled by the clock.
It is possible to de
fi ne weekdays, holiday eves, holidays and automatic Daylight Saving Time setting.
Personal computer interface
The control panel has an USB interface dedicated to the connection of a personal computer with which it is possible to perform, depending
on the access level, all programming operations and the system
fi rmware update.
Serial printer interface
The control panel provides a TTL port dedicated to connecting a PROG32 interface to which you can connect a serial printer.
Event buffer
The control panel stores in its non-volatile buffer up to 8192 events in descending chronological order.
The memory contents can be displayed via the control panel or sent to the printer through the TTL port. Events can be displayed and
fi ltered
by the software. For this, the events are downloaded and saved in a log fi le on the software.
Communication analysis
The control panel constantly supervises all communications among the devices that make up the system and registers possible errors.
