6.4 Field device module
The Field device module required in order to configure a stand-alone FACP in accordance to the appropriate
standards and guidelines. The Field device module integrates all of the input and output modules that are
necessary in addition to the modules on the Basic module to operate as a Fire Alarm Control Panel to DIN VDE
0833. This are e.g. terminals to connect a Fire department notifying system, a master box and programmable
relays.
There are two different kinds of Field device module available for the FACP IQ8Control:
1) Part No.772477 - Field device module with one micro module slot
2) Part No.772479 - Field device module without micro module slot
The FACP must not be operated with series 01 Field device modules.
Features
Terminals for a Fire Department Notifying System (8 Inputs / 8 Outputs)
Terminals for a Master box (manned centre link) incl. relay to switch the required power supply and monitored
input to indicate the triggered master box.
Three freely programmable relays – alternatively
- monitored und positive switching,
- positive switching
- or dry change-over contact
Emergency operation for all four relays available
Do not use the relays for the monitored activation of alarm devices.
Monitoring of the relays is only used to detect interruptions and short circuits.
If a control panel is required to function in accordance with DIN 0833, you should program the relays
with the >common fire< (K2), >common alarm< (K3) and >common disconnection< (K4) in the
customer data of the control panel. In the emergency mode the relays will be triggered with the
assigned function.
If several Fire Alarm Control Panels are connected together in the essernet
®
, the master box can
be connected to one of the other FACPs.
Do not connect relays (AE) of the FACP IQ8Control with alternating voltage. Even in the case of a
>potential free relay< mode it is not possible to switch an external AC-voltage.
