Advanced Configuration Options

The advanced configuration options are set 
using the PC400 configuration tool which con-
nects to the detector using the CTI400 Configu-
ration Tool Interface. 
The following options can be set using the tool:

Basic options: Options available on DIP 
switches can alternatively be set by the 
PC400 configuration tool.

OPM timing: Set time interval for regular 
OPM test.

Video Output mode: Select what information 
is overlaid on camera image.

Video Information: Enter and edit detector 
location and identity information that can be 
overlaid on camera image.

Select logging options: Select which events 
and information are logged by the detector.

Field network parameters: Enter and edit net-
work settings such as baud rate, addresses, 
etc.

Additionally, the configuration tool can be used 
to view the internal parameters and for diagnos-
tics by extracting and processing log data stored 
in the detector. 

Commissioning

System Checks

Before connecting the zone wiring to the control 
equipment or to the detectors, a general inspec-
tion of the system should be carried out.
In particular, ensure that the detectors are suita-
bly positioned and follow the recommendations 
as mentioned in the FV400 Series Product Infor-
mation and Design Application guide. 
The operation of the detector can be tested by 
using the WT300 (Walk-Test Tool). For additional 
information, refer to the latest version of the 
WT300 Installation guide.

Note

Programming via IR mode of the 
850EMT is not supported by the FV400 
Series of detectors.

For information on 850EMT, refer to the 
latest version of the 850EMT User man-
ual.

Reference Documents

Refer to the latest versions of the 
PC400 Help file and the CTI400 Installa-
tion guide for further information on 
how to use these tools for diagnostics.

WARNING

The Self-Test generates an alarm 
that is reported on all the 
interfaces. Ensure that the 
monitoring system will identify it 
as a test alarm and distinguish it 
from a fire alarm.

Tests to conduct

The wiring must be checked for loop 
resistance, continuity and insulation 
before powering any devices.
