ZP3 Fire Control Panel Installation, Commissioning, and Maintenance Manual
8. Connect the external circuit board (attached to the mounting bracket) to the
printer using the orange and black cable.
9. Connect the display board and the printer board to the printer using the ribbon
cable provided, as shown in Figure 25 on page 33.
10. Connect 24 VDC power to the printer using the black and red ZP3 power
lead.
11. Power up the panel and configure the printer on the ZP3 panel.
Once installed the printer must be configured to operate as required. It can be
programmed to print or suppress different types of messages (e.g. print fire
alarms message, suppress disabled messages, etc.). This programming is done
in the ZP3 panel Setup menu. See “System Configuration > Printer” on page 85
for details.
Here are a few guidelines to help set up the panel as rapidly as possible.
The panel fascia contains a complete set of status LEDs which give the current
status of the ZP3 panel. Under normal operating conditions, all of these LEDs
should be off, and the buzzer should be silent. Only the green Power On LED
should be illuminated.
When testing a panel, always ensure that the Z-loops are correctly terminated in-
to-out as per the wiring drawing, and that all monitored outputs (sounders,
monitored inputs, etc,) are terminated with the correct end-of-line resistor.
Make sure that at least one sensor or device is connected when testing a panel
otherwise a fault condition occurs.
Always power up with sensors or devices attached to the Z-loops. Remember
that the ZP3 panel does not automatically accept sensors or devices added (or
removed) afterwards, and a fault condition results. To accept the addition or
removal of sensors and devices, go to the menu Setup > Points > Accept Points,
and run the accept routine. This causes the panel to accept the sensors and
devices currently attached.
The commissioning key switch, which is located on the inside of the front door,
has two positions,

. The commission position enables
you to access the panel setup menus via the keyboard. With the key switch in the
commission position, the System Test LED on the fascia flashes.
The internal buzzer operates to announce any events that occur. It provides the
required output level to be heard in all situations, with the door closed, and meets
EN 54-2 requirements for this.
