1. Introduction
1.1 About this manual
The purpose of this manual is to provide all the information necessary to
operate the BX-10M1 fire alarm control panel.
•
BX-10M1 can be supplied with variants of the system program
adapted to particular markets and special functions (appendix 8).
1.2 The
Product
The BX-10M1 Fire Alarm Control Panel is a conventional panel with 4
zones. The panel is supplied as:
•
BX-10M1 fire alarm control panel with 4 zones (loops), including
power supply and battery.
•
BX-10M1 can operate from 110VAC and 230VAC mains.
In an alarm situation, detectors and manual call-points connected to a
conventional detection loop are detected by means of increasing current
consumption. Hence, it is not possible on the control panel to identify the
detectors and manual call-points that are in alarm status. The points
(detector and manual call-points) in alarm are found by checking all
points connected to the zone in alarm and observing the points that
have active alarm LEDs (the LEDs are lit).
Manual call points and detectors can be connected to the same loop
cable (the same zone). Manual call-points in alarm are handled
differently compared to detectors in alarm. The standard manual call-
point BF-20 always gives instant alarm when operated (glass broken).
This means that manual call-points are
not
disabled when the zone is
disabled, and alarm outputs are not affected by the standard 2-minute
delay if a manual call-point is operated (glass broken).
If the installation requires a standard 2-minute delayed alarm output
when a manual call-point is operated, a resistor 120 ohm/0,5W must be
connected in series with the alarm switch in the manual call-point.
(Internal connection: Chapter 3.8).
Note that the manual call-point still is active (will give alarm) if the zone
is disabled.
A second alarm in a zone where the first alarm already has been
acknowledged, will not activate alarm LEDs and the internal buzzer. If
the internal buzzer only is muted after the first alarm, the second alarm
will activate it once more.
