FENIX4 Monitoring system – Commissioning instruction
Function description
Functions and settings via the display
Date and Time
The date and time are set from the factory, but can be eas-
ily changed on-site if necessary. The unit is equipped with
automatic summer and winter time adjustment.
Language
Easily choose between Swedish and English.
Zone dampers and smoke detector circuits
The dampers and smoke detector circuits can easily be
divided into up to four zones. The zones then serve as their
own fire compartments and the smoke detector circuits
can close one or more zones. This is a function that can
be used, for example, for tenant adaptations where the
entire system should not shut down on each local smoke
detector circuit.
Default setting: all smoke detectors and fire dampers
belong to zone 1.
Time of functional testing
Easily set the interval when functional testing of the fire
dampers is performed and when during the day to do it.
Selectable ranges:
• 1 time every 24 hours
• 1 time every 48 hours
(recommended and default setting on delivery) • 1
time per week
• 1 time per month
• 1 time every 6 months
Perform functional testing
If necessary, you can easily perform a functional test via
the display on FENIX4. Can also be performed by shorting
terminals 32 and 33.
Device information and communication settings
Simply set the desired communication settings for Modbus
TCP or BACnet IP via the display.
IP address is assigned automatically via Dynamic Host Con-
figuration Protocol (DHCP). If a fixed IP address is desired,
this can be configured via the settings in the touch display.
Delay External stop
If desired, functional testing of fire dampers can be delayed
by 5 minutes. Relay “EXT. STOP” between terminals 44
and 45 then breaks directly for internal functional testing,
the functional test of the dampers is performed first after a
5 minute delay, which then allows the electric heating coils
to cool down.
Default setting: no delay.
Automatic reset of External incoming alarm
Normally an External incoming alarm (34 + 35) needs to be
acknowledged on the unit via the display or terminal block
32 + 33 (default setting), this function permits External
incoming alarms to be acknowledged automatically when
a possible external alarm stops. Default setting: no auto-
matic reset.
System reset
The system is easily reset to the default settings when
necessary.
Automatic functions integrated in FENIX
Dynamic troubleshooting diagrams
Instead of the traditional troubleshooting documents that
previously accompanied older controllers, FENIX shows
exactly what fault occurred and proposed actions directly
on the display, such as if a damper does not make contact
with the limit switch for the closed position:
The unit then shows exactly what damper fault has been
identified, the possible slave unit FENIX+ that the damper
belongs to and which connection terminals and cables
should be checked and troubleshot. This function facili-
tates any service and troubleshooting in the event of a fault
during the lifespan of the property. The same pedagogical
approach applies to smoke detector circuits, external
alarms and other functions that trigger something in the
controller.
Dynamic trouble shooting diagrams and associated action
texts play an important role in the simplicity of FENIX.
Automatic functional testing
All connected fire dampers are automatically functionally
tested. In order to ensure that regulating dampers work
at all damper angles, check the limit switches for both the
open and closed positions for all connected dampers.
Automatic shutdown of the entire system in the event
of alarms in two different zones
As a safety measure, all connected fire dampers are closed
if two smoke detectors from different zones alarm at the
same time. This is because it can then be assumed that
the fire has spread between the fire compartments and
that the entire system should be closed.
