6Analogue Fire Control Panel FireClass200

OVERVIEW
Access Levels
FireClass200 has several access levels for control panel management.
Level 1 The Plexiglas window allows all persons to view the control panel status.
Level 2A The door-lock protects the manual commands (RESET, SILENCE and
LOGGER), and allows access to authorized key holders only.
Level 2B Only User PINs (code of 1 to 5 digits) can Disable the Loop devices, Bell
Outputs, Software Zones and Network devices.
Level 3A Only the Installer PIN (code of 1 to 5 digits) can access the programming
phase of the control panel parameters.
Level 3B Access to the internal components of the control panel, for maintenance pur-
poses ---- battery and fuse replacement etc., must be done by authorized
persons only, and requires removal of the screws and upper door.
Level 4 Repairs to the electronic board (e.g. to substitute the EPROM memory)
must be done by the manufacturer.
Features
Day/Night The FireClass200 control panel provides Day mode and Night mode. The
Alarm Threshold and Warning Threshold can be increased by the pro-
grammed value, during programmed hours.
In this way false alarms, caused by the persons present in the protected
ambient, will be reduced considerably.
DAY Mode ----Silence will be enabled until the SILENCE button is pressed
again.
NIGHT Mode ----Silence will be enabled for the programmed time (from 0.5
to 30 minutes).
The change-over from DAY to NIGHT Mode can be done manually, by me-
ans of the Silence option from the SYSTEM menu or automatically, as per
the programming of the two Timers (it is possible to program the precise
hours and days of the week when the control panel must operate in DAY
Mode).
OVERVIEW 7

rements (complies with European norm EN54 part 2):
Øoutputs to fire alarm routing equipment
Øco-incidence detection
Øfault signals from points
Ødisablement of addressable points
ØTest condition
Telecom Module FC200/COM (Optional)
The Telecom Module can call and send recorded messages to the pro-
grammed telephone numbers and, by means of communication protocols,
can also send data to central stations. This module allows system mana-
gement ---- through the FC200/SW software package installed on the PC
that is connected to the telephone line.

BAUD, RADIONICS 40 BAUD, SCANTRONIC 10 BAUD, CONTACT ID
(DTMF), SIA 300 BAUD.
Alarm cycle
In the event of an alarm status on an alarm channel, the telephone dialler
will generate the alarm cycle, shown in figure 1.
8Analogue Fire Control Panel FireClass200

Phase 1 The telephone dialler will switch the telephone line.
Phase 2 After 3 seconds the dialler will engage the telephone line.
Phase 3 If the Dial-tone check option is enabled (refer to "Programming" chapter)
the dialler will check for the dial tone, and when detected, will step to suc-
cessive phase. If the dial tone is not detected (option enabled) the dialler
will hook-up and step back to phase1.
The Dial-tone check will be done 4 times, after which the dialler will step
to the successive telephone number.
If this option is disabled the dialler will step directly to the successive pha-
se.
Phase 4 The dialler will dial the telephone number of the alarm channel in alarm
status.
Phase 5 If the Voice answer detection option is enabled (refer to "Programming"
chapter), the dialler will wait 25 seconds for a voice answer and, when voice
answer is detected, the dialler will step to the successive phase. However, if
the Voice answer detection option 6is disabled, the dialler will pause for a few
seconds before stepping to the successive phase.
Phase 6 The dialler will send the alarm message assigned to the alarm channel in
question. The message will be played for the programmed Message play-
back time (20, 40, 60 or 80 seconds).
Call cycle The Call cycle (set during programming) determines the number of times
that each telephone number ---- assigned to the alarm channel in alarm
status will be called (1 to 5 times).

PARTS IDENTIFICATION
This chapter holds the full description of the main components and LEDs
of the FireClass200. In most cases, the numbers in boldface refer to the
parts shown in the tables and figures.
Main unit (FireClass200)
The Flashing status of certain LEDs is not dealt with in the following ta-
ble, as it signals that the assigned event occurred and ended before the
last rearming operation.
LED MEANING
ALARM ON: the control panel is in ALARM status.
MORE ALARMS ON: presence of more than one alarm condition.
PRE-ALARM
FLASHING: PRE-ALARM status - the sensors have detected an alarm
condition. The Outputs will be activated when the PRE-ALARM delay
ends.
TELECOM ON: the control panel is physically connected to the telephone line.
MAIN POWER OFF: mains failure (230 V). Mains power must be restored before the
batteries empty.
WALK TEST
FLASHING: Walk Test mode on a Software Zone; an alarm condition on
the Zone in question will generate an alarm status on the assigned
Outputs for approximately one second.
DISABLED ON:at least one device is disabled.
NIGHT ON: the control panel is operating in NIGHT mode.
DAY ON: the control panel is operating in DAY mode.
FAULT ON: presence of at least one fault condition; the type of fault will be
signalled by the associated LED and/or on the display.
MAINS
ON: mains failure (230 V); the standby batteries will takeover the power
supply to the control panel. This LED is complementary to the green
MAINS-POWER LED, and will continue to signal the fault event after
mains power has been restored (memory).
LOW BATTERY
ON: low batteries; proper functioning of the control panel cannot be
guaranteed in the event of black-out. Wait several hours, if the LED stays
ON the batteries are not rechargeable and must be replaced
BATTERY FAULT ON: batteries are completely empty or not connected - check fuse 41
GROUND ON: voltage leak to ground - check connection insulation.
FUSES ON:burnt fuse (fuse 41 or 42) - the fuse concerned will be indicated on
the display.
LOGIC UNIT ON: "blocked" microprocessor - call Installer for service.
PARTS IDENTIFICATION 11

ADDRESS ON: loss of a loop device.
SAME ADDRESS ON: two devices on the same loop have the same address.
SILENCE
ON: the SILENCE button has been used to places the SILENCEABLE
Outputs in standby status. DAY mode SILENCE status will be held until
the SILENCE button is pressed again. NIGHT mode SILENCE will be
held for the programmed SILENCE time.
Z01 ÷Z16
ON: the corresponding zone is in ALARM Status.
Flashing (3 secs. ON - 1 sec. OFF): the corresponding Zone is in PRE-
ALARM status .
Flashing (1 sec. ON - 0.5 sec. OFF): the FIXED delay is active.
Flashing (2 secs ON - 2 secs OFF): the PAS delay is active.
BUTTON FUNCTION
SILENCE Places the SILENCEABLE Outputs in standby status: DAY mode SILENCE status will be held until the SILENCE button is pressed again.
NIGHT mode SILENCE is held for the programmed SILENCE time.
ACK Activates the PAS delay (if pressed when the FIXED delay is active).
RESET REARMS the control panel.
TEST Tests the control panel buzzer and LEDs. When this button is pressed, all warning LEDs should light and the buzzer should emit a intermittent
acoustic signal (1 sec. beep - 1 sec. pause).
