Operating Modes
Switching between monitoring phases is done manually or automatically in one of two
ways.
Manual Phase Switching
Manual Phase Switching is done using the front panel ’Holiday’ button. Holiday Mode
(Low Phase) is indicated by ’Consumption’ being extinguished, while Normal Mode is
indicated by ’Consumption’ being a steady green.
Automatic Phase Switching (External Input)
Automatic Phase Switching is achieved by connecting a signal ’Intruder Alarm Activated’
from a burglar alarm system to the KMP-V external control input J10, which forces the
system into Holiday Mode (Low Phase) with the proper DIPMODE selected (see page
28). When the burglar alarm is deactivated, the leakage detector switches back into
Normal Mode (High Phase). ’Consumption’ is extinguished in Holiday Mode (Low Phase)
and steady green in Normal Mode (High Phase).
Some installations permit using an external clock timer (Phase Switch Box) to provide the
phase switching signal when a burglar alarm signal is unavailable or unsuitable.
Automatic Phase Switching (PIR)
Automatic Phase Switching is achieved by having a signal from an attached motion
sensor force the system into Presence (High Phase) for a preset time. If no further
motion is registered during this time, the system reverts to Absence (Low Phase).
A motion sensor trigger is indicated by a red flash in ’Consumption’. Presence (High
Phase) is signalled by ’Consumption’ being a steady green, while Absence (Low Phase)
is indicated by ’Consumption’ being extinguished.
Special Functions
KMP-V can be set to meet certain particular demands.
For instance, the system may force open the valve in High Phase. This function prevents
cut-off while the building is in use, and may be used when fire hoses are integral to the
protected pipe installation. Also, the valve may be forced open by an external signal to
control input J9 (ABA) from e.g. a fire alarm. Note when fire hoses are in the protected
installation, the cut-off valve should be ordered with an SRNO actuator.
Further, the system may be set to disable the alarm output during Low Phase, for
situations where a (nightly) alarm callout is undesirable, as the system has already
isolated the installation. The alarm relay will be enabled when the building is populated
and the system switches to High Phase.
