Sensors
Loop wired sensors must be of the Eaton Addressable 800 Protocol series soft
addressed analogue type . Eaton conventional detectors can be connected via a zone
monitor . The connection of other detector types via an zone monitor interface is
not recommended .
Call points
Loop wired call points must be the Eaton Addressable 800 Protocol series soft
addressed analogue type, Eaton conventional callpoints can be connected via a
zone monitor interface . The connection of other callpoint types via a zone monitor
interface is not recommended
Sounders
Loop powered addressable sounders must be of the Eaton Addressable 800
Protocol series soft addressed analogue type .
Conventional sounders can also be connected either to the conventional sounder
circuits at the panel or to the loop via the 4-way sounder controller interface
providing they meet the following:
They are suitable for operation between 18V and 28V .
They are polarised and suppressed .
The total alarm load is less than the rating of the panel / Alarm Power Interface .
Note: It is possible to use devices outside these requirements if they are supplied
with power from a separate source and switched via a suitable relay .
Relay circuits
Additional relays can be added to the control panel system by using either single
channel or three channel relay units .
Relays / Auto-dialers and auxiliary equipment
A wide variety of relays and other equipment can be connected to the system, but
you should note the following constraints:
1. The panel provides monitored outputs to drive fire and fault relays mounted
in external equipment. External relays should be suppressed.
If a non-suppressed relay is used then a diode can be connected, to
suppress any reverse EMF on the release of the relay which might cause the
panel to malfunction.
2. A 24V DC output is provided at the panel to make it easy to connect ancillary
equipment. Although the panel can supply a continuous quiescent load of
up to 30mA, BS5839 precludes this practice and any ancillary equipment you
connect should only consume power in the alarm or fault mode to meet the
requirements of BS5839.
