1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Important Information
The Brooks Firetracker FT1-SB is single zone conventional fire alarm panel with compatible
smoke and/or heat detectors and auxiliary devices, it provides a complete single zone automatic
fire detection and alarm system. FT1-SB has been designed to comply with the Australian
standard AS7240.2 and for specific use in non critical switchboard applications such as main
switch boards and motor control panels.
FT1-SB consists of 3 basic modules:
1. Display Module, provides the user interface to control and monitor the FT1-SB system.
The display module is designed to be mounted on the front door of a switch board and
utilizes the standard square cut-out 90 x 90 mm in any switch board door cabinet. This
provides full control of the system without needing to enter the panel and avoid exposure
to live parts
2. Termination Module is housed in a DIN rail enclosure and mounted on the equipment gear
tray inside the switch board cabinet. All detector termination and auxiliary outputs are
available on the termination module. Only 4 wires are required to interface the front display
module to the termination module allowing flexibility of mounting location within the
switchboard cabinet.
3. Power supply, is a DIN rail mounted module and for installation beside the termination
module.
1.2 System Overview
Brooks FT1-SB is designed for those switchboard applications where fire detection is required
within the switchboard cabinet itself rather than protecting the room within which the switchboard
is located. The design of the system allows for the utilization of the same techniques as originally
used in the switchboard design itself, i.e. standard meter case format and DIN rail mounting.
The system monitors continuously the zone circuit for normal, alarm and faults (short or open
circuit). The system provides alarm, fault and disable (isolate) voltage free contacts and a fully
supervised 24V dc switched output to initiate external ancillary devices as well as provide an input
to local system monitoring such as a building management system.
FT1-SB system utilizes a non battery backed 24V dc power supply. The din rail switch mode
power supply provided with the system has a wide range of mains input voltages and an
adjustable 24V DC output.

1.3 Features
The Brooks FT1-SB utilizes the leading edge technology:
•Microprocessor based system in both display and termination modules.
•Easy to install, standard meterenclosure DIN rail termination module and power supply
•Intuitive indication and controls, high intensity LED indicators and pushbutton switches.
•Transparent protective cover for the display module.
•Fully supervised detector circuit.
•One supervised alarm output limited to 0.5 Amp.
•Two alarm changeover relay contacts rated to 240VAC @ 5Amp and 24VDC @ 0.5Amp.
•Two fault changeover relay contacts.
•One disable (isolate) changeover relay contact.
•Universal AC input DIN rail switch mode power supply 240VAC / 24VDC @ 1Amp

2 OPERATION
2.1 Front Display Module
The front display of Brooks FT1-SB is shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 FT1-SB Display
The front display of FT1SB compromises indicators and controls for all system functions. The
alarm zone facility is segregated and includes a separate control and LED indicator for each
function, i.e. alarm test,fault test and disable (isolate).
A ‘Power ON’ and ‘Common Fault’ indicators are provided to indicate that the mains power is
applied and to identify if a system fault is present (see Table 1)
FT1-SB provides a mute facility to silence the panel buzzer. Any new event, alarm or fault, will re-
activate the buzzer.
A reset control is also provided to reset any latched alarm or fault condition.

2.2 Termination and ControlModule
The Termination & Control Module of Brooks FT1-SB is shown inFigure 2.
Figure 3 FT1-SB Termination & Control Module
The control and termination module should be mounted on a DIN rail installed at a convenient
location within the switchboard cabinet. The control and termination module as shown Figure 3
provides the termination point for all the field wiring. It is connected to thefront display via 4 wires,
2 of these are used to supply 24V dc (0V & 24V) and the other two for communications via RS232
(Rx & Tx).
