Zones.
Assigning devices to the relevant zones can be done either at the panel direct or by using site
installer. The contractor should always provide the zone information, as this is part of the system
design process and takes into account the fire compartment boundaries, which you may not be aware
of.
The panel has 96 zonal led’s, if ringing patterns are required across a network then all zones must
exist on all panels within the network.
eg. Panel 1 has zones 1
–10 in use, Panel 2 zones 11 – 20 in use, Panel 3 zones 21 – 30 in use.
In this case ALL panels would have zones 1
– 30 programmed onto Loop 1.
Panel 1 would have devices in zones 1
– 10 but none in zones 11 – 30.
Panel 2 would have devices in zones 11
– 20 but none in zones 1 – 10 & 21 – 30.
Panel 3 would have devices in zones 21
– 30 but none in zones 1 – 20
Access Codes.
There are four access codes for the DF6000
User Code: This allows control of the silence, evacuate and reset functions and also
enable/disable; replace device and check auto config functions. This code can be changed to
a site-specific code.
Engineer Code: This gives access to the engineer parts of the menu, which are used, for
learning and programming the system.
High Level Codes: These 2 codes give access to menu’s which:
1.
Can be used to return the system to its factory settings, and to change the logo’s on the
display.
2. Disable ALL Outputs.
3. View all access codes and reset to default codes.
Disable/Enable Devices.
This menu allows the customer to disable and enable selected detectors, zones or I/O’s.
Detectors and zones are self-explanatory, simply touch the Enabled/Disabled box against each zone
or device.
The disable I/O menu however, allows the user to disable FRE, FPE, AUX relay, Fault output and
panel Sounders 1 & 2.
When the panel is in Auto learn individual sounders CANNOT be disabled, the only method of
disabling sounders is by using the ‘Disable all outputs’ function, or, download text into the panel,
which will then allow the sounders to be disabled by zone or individually.
If a device is already ‘in fire’ the system will not allow the user to disable it. The zone that the device
belongs in must be disabled; this function is still available if the panel is in fire.
If a complete zone is disabled, individual devices within that zone cannot be selected for re-enabling.
If the panel is part of a network then devices can be disabled across the network by using the
‘Network disable/enable function’.
