9.1 GENERAL
This chapter describes the correct procedure to place into operation a correctly aligned and
adjusted F4000 LCD FIP.
Before undertaking any activities, inspect the cabinet interior and check that all panel
equipment is securely mounted, and that all cables are connected at the appropriate points.
The FIP's main components are accessed when the inner door is opened.
(a)
MAINS POWER SUPPLY/BATTERY CHARGER
A modular unit capable of supplying power to run the FIP, attached Responders,
auxiliary devices, and to charge standby batteries as required by AS1603.4 and
NZS4512.
(b)
MAIN CONTROL BOARD
Contains all the FIP processing power and interfaces to all system inputs and
outputs, for example:
i.
Communication links to the Responders, RZDUs, programming terminal, etc.
ii.
Output status data to the FIP indicators, relays to signal the Brigade, start
bells, control ANCIL 0 relay, etc.
iii.
Inputs from the FIP keypad.
(c)
LCD KEY BOARD
Provides a 30 key keypad for operator / Brigade control of the FIP, plus 8 LEDs in-
dicating the state of selected common and supervisory outputs (eg - MAINS ON,
SYSTEM FAULT, etc.), and an LCD display.
(d)
LED DISPLAY BOARD
A module used to display the ALARM, FAULT and ISOLATE conditions of up to 16
zones. 64 zones can be displayed per 7U module and the total number of zones per
cabinet will depend on the cabinet size. The ALARM, FAULT and ISOLATED
conditions of each zone are indicated by separate LED indicators.
(e)
NZ MODE DISPLAY EXTENDER BOARD
A module fitted to New Zealand mode FIPs only. This provides the extra NORMAL,
FIRE and DEFECT indications, and other output and inputs required for New
Zealand mode operation. It mounts in the same manner as a standard F4000 display
board.
