Remote PC connection
A four-way RS232 molex connector
is provided on the Main Control PCB
for the connection of a Windows
based PC for programming
purposes.
The ONLY way to program this fire
panel is using a PC loaded with the
panel’s sophisticated programming
tools (Part No. XFP507). The lead
supplied with the software tools
should be connected to the panel
and the PC as shown in Fig. 9 (right).
Aux. 24V output
One fused 24V d.c. output, rated at 100mA, is provided and can be used for supplying power to ancillary
fire alarm equipment.
Installing the standby battery supply
There is a risk of explosion if incorrect battery types or sizes are used. Always replace both
batteries and always dispose of used batteries in accordance with the battery manufacturers
instructions and local regulations. Batteries are heavy and can produce dangerously high currents
if shorted. Take care when handling and routing battery leads to avoid damage.
Two new, good quality and fully charged 12V valve regulated lead acid batteries are required as the
emergency stand-by power supply for the panel. The batteries should be connected in series and located
in the panel’s enclosure as shown in Fig. 10 below. The battery leads, link wire and nylon cable ties are
provided in the panel’s accessory pack. Run the battery leads through the slits in the panel’s lower
plastic ribs and secure the batteries into position using the nylon cable ties as shown.
The panel’s sophisticated battery monitoring unit protects the batteries against deep discharge by
activating a cut off circuit when the stand-by supply voltage reaches 21V approx. If batteries are not
fitted, are discharged or in poor condition, a PSU fault will show at the panel.
The capacity of the batteries used will depend upon the required stand-by time. To calculate the
batteries required for any given stand-by period, refer to the battery calculation guide on page 35.
Fig. 10 : Battery location and connection details
Relay 1 : Switches when any zone goes into fire, switches back when the panel is silenced;
Relay 2 : Switches when any zone goes into fire, switches back when the panel is reset;
Relay 3 : Has no default operation.
The wiring for each output should be connected to the
relevant connector block on the Main Control PCB
(remember to isolate the panel’s Mains and battery
backup supplies before making any connections).
Fig. 8 (right) explains how the outputs work.
