Description
'Block aumanual
release'
Assignment of causes for which the system switches automatically into the 'Block
aumanual release' operation mode. This operation mode blocks both the
automatic activation of extinguishing via fire detectors and the manual activation
via manual call points.
'Blocking of automatic
release remaining'
Assignment of causes for which the system remains in the 'Block automatic
release' operation mode, even though the original causes of their activation are
no longer present.
'Loss of main agent'
Assignment of causes for which the system is to switch into the 'Loss of main
agent' state. This could be a monitored input on the extinguishing card, for
example, to which a pressure sensor for determining the extinguishing agent
pressure to the main extinguishing agent cylinders is connected.
Information: This function is also used when there is only one battery with
extinguishing agent cylinders and no reserve extinguishing agent cylinders.
'Loss of reserve agent'
Assignment of causes for which the system is to switch into the 'Loss of reserve
agent' state. This could be a monitored input on the extinguishing card, for
example, to which a pressure sensor for determining the extinguishing agent
pressure of the reserve extinguishing agent cylinders is connected.
'Switch to reserve cylinder
bank'
Assignment of causes for which the system is to switch from the main
extinguishing agent cylinders to the reserve extinguishing agent cylinders.
This could be a monitored input on the extinguishing card, for example, to which a
pressure sensor for determining the extinguishing agent pressure to the main
extinguishing agent cylinders is connected. If configured accordingly, the
extinguishing system can automatically switch between the main and reserve
extinguishing agent cylinders.
'Sensor'
Causes function to process an input signal which transmits the measurement
value of any built-in sensor. The measurement value can be published in the
relevant flooding zones in order to trigger individual functions in the relevant
flooding zone of the extinguishing system.
With the causes function, an input must be assigned to the extinguishing card
which, for example, is wired with a sensor to monitor the temperature in the room
for the extinguishing agent cylinders.
An LED on the associated extinguishing terminal can be configured to visually
indicate when a sensor signal is active. You will find information on configuring
LEDs on the extinguishing terminal in chapter 'Configuring the extinguishing
'Valve position'
Assignment of causes for which a certain valve position is to be recorded. This
could be a position switch on a valve, for example, which reports a certain valve
position.
The 'Extinguishing input type' of the assigned input should be 'Simple switchable'.
You will find more information about configuring the 'Extinguishing input type' in
chapter 'Configuring inputs and outputs [
347]'. You will find information about
circuitry in document 'A6V10210390'.
An LED on the extinguishing terminal can be configured to visually indicate when
the valve is in a particular position. For this purpose, a 'Local event' element must
be created with the 'Peripheral device activated' template in the extinguishing
terminal's corresponding LED element. You will find information on configuring
LEDs on the extinguishing terminal in chapter 'Configuring the extinguishing
