Alarm variants should be matched so that they guarantee early and at the same time dependable fire
danger detection. Alarm variants descriptions are contained in p. 8.1 of this OMD. As default, the
control panel is programmed with the variant 2 in all zones. The alarm variants can be divided into
two groups considering an alarm triggering way:
1.
one-stage alarming (variants 1, 3, 4, 7, 9, 11, 17),
2.
two-stage alarming (variants 2, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16).
Alarming is performed according to the programmed variants only in the case of PERSONNEL
PRESENT operation mode. If the PERSONNEL ABSENT mode in set, alarming shall be performed in all
zones, regardless of the variants programmed, pursuantly to one-stage variant (variant 1) that
immediately generates the 2
nd
fire alarm at the control panel. Alarming as per the variants is not
executed also in the case of a manual call point (ROP) triggering, since such a situation is treated in
different way than signals by other addressable element – the control panel evokes the 2
nd
fire alarm
without any delay. The program alarm variants assignment to zones should be carried out together
with the user message declaration according to the PM.
7.4 EKS-4001 MONITORING AND CONTROLLING ELEMENTS DECLARATION
The EKS-4001 monitoring and controlling element (hereinafter called ‘EKS’) is a line element that
enables activation and supervising of fire protection devices, e.g. smoke exhaust dampers, doors,
sounders, optic signalling devices, etc. A single EKS (assembled in cases consisting 1, 2 or 4 devices) is
equipped with one controlling relay output and two monitoring inputs. Each of the two monitoring
inputs can indicate – depending on the programmed operation mode and characteristic resistance –
one of the following modes:
1.
supervision,
2.
fault,
3.
non-maskable fault,
4.
technical alarm.
The EKS proper programming consists of a line element declaration (similarly to fire warning devices)
and its assignment to a logical number.
The EKS logical number is a figure from the 1 ÷ 250 range, which is assigned to the element in order
to enable the EKS variant declaration depending on various events in own control panel or in a
control panel belonging to a common detection area,, and to assign an appropriate user messages.
Each EKS element can be assigned only to one logical number and reversely. In programming
meaning – with some simplification – it can be stated that for the EKS element a logical number is an
equivalent of a zone for fire elements. The EKS element is linked with actuation variants and the user
messages for monitoring inputs just through the logical number.
The EKS-4001 operation way is a resultant of the element programmed operation mode and the
output relay activation variant.
The entire EKS-4001 programming process is completed in two stages:
Stage I:
The EKS-4001 declaration consisting in assigning:
