4.7.5 FIRE / EVAC panel interface module
Using this interface, Comelit 41CPE118 are designed for connection to up to 5 Comelit compact voice evacuation panels,
product codes: 49CCO002, 49CCO004, 49CCO006. This creates a network where speakers scattered across various zones
within the protected site will automatically be controlled and enabled in accordance with the programming in the dedicated fire
panel menu.

Connecting the interface hardware
Network connection between panel 41CPE118 and EVAC panels takes place via a CAT 5e SF/UTP PH30 cable, crimped with
RJ45 plug in standard “B”, both on the fire panel side and the voice evacuation side.

Plug the cable into the Ethernet port of the interface installed in the fire panel, and into one of the 2 LINK ports inside the
49CCO00X panel. If there are several EVAC panels, use the second LINK Ethernet port to continue connecting the next EVAC
panel to the network.

Programming the 41CPE118 fire panel side interface:
To program the interface module, access the 41CPE118 panel menu, logging in as a level 3 user, and carry out the following
steps:
SYSTEM – PROGRAMMING – PANEL – NETWORK – NETWORK SETTINGS
In the Network Settings menu, set the following parameters:
◊
NETWORK STATUS
= ENABLED
◊
NETWORK TYPE
= 1.EVAC VOICE or 2.EVAC VOICE + LAN
1. Set EVAC VOICE if the system consists of a fire panel connected to one or more EVAC panels. This means panel 41CPE118
will enable the interface for communication between the Fire panel and the Evac panel(s).
2. Set EVAC VOICE + LAN if the system consists of a fire panel connected via LAN to other 41CPE118 panels (for the
communication of events or supervision via SW) and if it also needs to be connected to one or more voice EVAC panels.
◊
NUMBER OF EVAC PANELS
= from 1 to 5 (enter the total number of EVAC panels connected to the system)
◊ To continue programming the interface, you need to assign the relevant Fire Zone Group to the Fire Zones, as the enable
commands to the Evac panels refer to alarms originating from Zone Groups.
