2. Quick Reference Guide
This quick reference guide outlines all the necessary steps to
successfully commission the AutroSafe Interactive Fire Detection
System the very first time, assuming that the system software is
already uploaded to the system, and no configuration files have been
uploaded.
Configuration upgrade and system software upgrade are described in
a separate chapter (Chapter 10).
2.1 Initial Commissioning
Step Action Chapter
1
Verify the detection loops by means of the AS-2000 tool. Chapter 3
2
Perform a consistency check of the configuration data
using the results from the AS-2000 verification and the data
that has been configured by means of the AutroSafe
Configuration Tool.
Chapter 4
3
Assign an AutroFieldBus address to each Power Board
BSF-400 (rotary switches) / AutroFieldBus unit. Chapter 5
4
Assign a Network ID to each panel by means of rotary
switches (on BSA-400). Chapter 6.3
5
Assign a Panel ID to each panel by means of switches (dip-
switches and rotary switches on BSA-400). Chapter 6.3
6
Verify the system before startup Chapter 7
7
Apply power to the system Chapter 8.1
8
Assign an IP Address to each panel Chapter 8.3
9
Upload configuration data to all panels from one central
point (a panel). Chapter 8.5
10
Verify the system after an upload Chapter 9
2.2 Upgrading System Software and Configuration
For information regarding configuration upgrade and system software
upgrade, refer to Chapter 10.

Verifying the Loops

Autronica Fire and Security AS

3. Verifying the Loops
3.1 AS-2000 Loop Diagnostic Tool
All loops should be verified with the AS-2000 Loop Diagnostic Tool
before startup. Although this is presumably already done at an earlier
stage (shortly after the installation), it is recommended that all loops
are verified once again in case minor changes have been done. By
doing this, you will eliminate possible problems which could occur
during the startup procedure and upgrading of configuration data.
The AS-2000 allows you to find all points connected to the selected
loop driver, and present them graphically.
AS-2000 can be connected directly to an AutroSafe
operating panel, or directly to a detection loop by means of an
external interface unit, WAS-2000.
3.2 Verification Procedure
Pressing the START button in the Topology window (AS-2000) tells
AS-2000 to find all points connected to the selected loop driver, and
present them graphically in a correct electrical sequence. Points will
be presented with unique symbols for each type of Loop Unit, and with
important information such as Production Number (PN), and the Loop
Sequence Index (LSI). In case of illegal topologies, like multiple
branch-offs and loop breaks, these will be presented with self-
explaining symbols.
Use the AS-2000 to;
register all loop units on each loop, including:
−the Loop Unit type
(detector type, manual call point, electronic sounder, I/O unit)
−Loop Sequence Indexes LSI
(order/location)
register all branch offs and loop break positions
locate any breaks on the loop wire (both positive and negative
wires)
measure the loops’ total resistance, current consumption and
voltage drop
earth fault
You will find detailed information on the installation and use of
AS-2000 in the User Guide, AS-2000 Loop Diagnostic Tool.

Consistency Check
of Configuration Data

4. Consistency Check
of Configuration Data
4.1 Introduction
4.2 Parameters Used for the Consistency Check
The table below provides a description of two of the parameters that
are used for the consistency check. These parameters are shown in
the Topology View in AS-2000, as well as in the topology view in the
AutroSafe Configuration Tool.
Parameter
Abbreviation
Description
Illustration
Loop Unit The loop unit
can be a
detector, a
manual call
point, a loop
sounder or an
I/O unit.
(Examples)
Heat detector (BD-200/300/500)
Optical smoke detector (BH-200/300/500)
MultiSensor detector (BH-220/320/520)
Manual callpoint (BF-200/300/500)
Electronic addressable sounder
(BBR-200)
Input / Output unit (BN-300, BN-310, BN-320 etc.)
Loop
Sequence
Index LSI A loop specific
index telling the
exact Loop Unit
order on the
loop
(sequencially
numbered).
A branch-off is
described by a
decimal
followed by a
sequencial
index.
NOTE:
To ensure a problem-
free upload of configuration data, always
perform a consistency check, using the results from the
AS-2000 verification and the data that has been configured by
means of the AutroSafe Configuration Tool.
(Example)

4.3 Importing Loop Data from the AS-2000 Tool
The AutroSafe Configuration Tool features an Import command
allowing you to import loop data directly from the AS-2000 Loop
Diagnostic tool. In this way, it is possible to ensure that the point types
and sequence indexes in the configuration will be identical to the real
loop. Tag Names and optional Detection Zones (DZs) will be assigned
to the points during import.
For further information, refer to the Help System for AutroSafe
Configuration Tool and the User Guide for the AS-2000 Loop
Diagnostic Tool.
4.4 Consistency Check Using the
AS-2000 / Config Mismatch Tool
4.5 Generating Configuration Files
System configuration is done from a computer by the means of the
AutroSafe Configuration Tool. This tool allows you to generate
configuration files, which then can be uploaded to target after the
system has been verified.
The AutroSafe Configuration Tool allows you to do a
consistency check of configuration data by means of a menu
called AS-2000 / Config Mismatch Tool (in the Tool menu).
This feature allows you to easily compare the actual
configuration data downloaded from a detection loop and
imported to the AutroSafe Configuration Tool (using
the AS-2000) with the configuration data you have entered in
the AutroSafe Configuration Tool.
