Panel outputs - Found on Sounder card (14-0410)
Panel Sounders: (OPTION 7.8 BS EN54-2)
Two outputs are provided. ONLY polarised equipment should be used. Ensure the
polarity of the connections are observed at all times.
The total alarm load across each conventional type sounder output = 0.75 A
Outputs can be wired in loop or spur configurations. If wired as a spur then an
EOL device (200  + Diode) must be fitted for correct operation (Eaton part no.
EOLCF3VDS).
Total loss of power - Found on Gateway card (14-0417) (Option 8.4 BS EN54-2)
The panel has the facility to sound the fault buzzer continuously for at least 1 hour in
the event of a total loss of power to the panel.
If this option has been selected and the external battery (3x AAA alkaline) has been
connected to TB2 on the Gateway card, the panel will detect when the battery is low
and signal a fault.
The battery should be changed when the external low battery has been detected to
ensure that the buzzer will sound in the event of a total loss of power.
WARNING
Do not exceed the rated output current
Output fire alarm routing equipment - Found on IO card (14-0409) when
programmed via xDetectWorks
(Option 7.9 BS EN54-2)
This output, which is fused, and monitored using an end of line device (Eaton part

3. About the xDetect Fire Panel System
Output to fault warning routing equipment - Found on Gateway card (14-0417)
(Option 8.9 BS EN54-2)
This output, which is fused and monitored using 6K8 end of line resistor (Eaton part
no. 01-3370), is used for the transmission of fault signals to fault warning routing
equipment. This output is monitored using 6K8 end of line resistor.
In Standby (quiescent mode) the output should only be loaded with the EOL resistor.
In Fault the output can switch a load of 30 mA and is current limited to 100 mA using
a resettable polyswitch.
Under fault conditions or even if the panel is powered down, this output will be
switched to Ovdc. Ensure the polarity of the connections is observed at all times and
end of line resistors ( 6K8 5% ) are fitted for correct operation.
Delays to outputs
(Option 7.11 of BS EN54-2)
The panel has the option to delay the operation of panel outputs, the fire routing
equipment output and the fire protection equipment. This delay is selectable using
the xDetectWorks download software .The delay is configurable in increments of
1 second up to a maximum of 10 minutes.
This delay can be enabled and disabled at access level 2 or access level 3.
For access level details, see “12.2 User Management - Definitions of Access levels”
on page 58. The panel has the facility for a specific call point to override this delay
by programming this call point via an input interface to provide an evacuate
signal using xDetectWorks.
Coincidence detection / Type C dependency
(Option 7.12 of BS EN54-2)
The panel has the facility to inhibit the operation of the output sounders, output
to fire routing equipment and the output of the fire protecting equipment until
one more confirmatory signals are received from different zones. This feature is
programmable using xDetectWorks Software.
Alarm counter
(Option 7.13 BS EN54-2)
The panel records the number of instances that it enters the fire alarm condition.
Alarm counter is displayed at the top right of screen at all times. The maximum
number of instances is 99,999. To clear the alarm counter the user must be at
access level 4. To log in with access level 4, the user must:
1. Log in as Engineer user
2. Open the panel door
3. This will give the user level 4 access

11INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL 25-15049-G October 2021 www.eaton.com
3. About the xDetect Fire Panel System
ote:N If the user opens the door before logging in as Engineer, a ‘Tamper Fault’ will
be generated.
Once at access level 4, navigate to ‘Commissioning’, then ‘Reset Alarm Counter’.
For access level details, see “12.2 User Management - Definitions of Access levels”
on page 58
3.2 Optional Functions
Optional Functions not approved to BS EN54-2 & BS EN54-4
Italian mode: (Option not required by BS EN54-2)
This mode can be programmed at access level 3. This relates to points 12.2(a) &
12.2(b) of the Internal Italian Ministerial Decree 9th April 1994 which states that
in the event of a fire detection from 2 or more detectors or from an MCP there
should be a 2 minute delay before output activation otherwise in the event of a fire
detection from any one detector there should be a 5 minute delay before output
activation, provided that the fire event is not acknowledged. These delays apply to
siren activation as well as the shutting down/activation of other external equipment
and additionally the legislation states that these delays should be adjustable
depending on the type of activity being carried out within the building.
For example, if there was a fire detected from a single detector then we should
start a 5-minute (adjustable) delay (T2). If however a fire is detected from a second
detector or a call-point the delay should automatically revert to 2 minutes (adjustable)
(T1). In this scenario the value of (T1) is critical. To keep things simple, let’s assume
that we set T1 = 2 minutes & T2 = 5 minutes.
Day/night (Option not required by BS EN54-2)
This mode can be programmed at access level 3. A device needs to be programmed
for day/night mode. When this device is set to off, the panel is in Day mode. In the
event of fire, the detectors respond in heat mode, not smoke mode. This mode can
also be set via a timer in xDetectWorks.
When the panel is in Night mode (device is set to on), the delay is set to zero.
Commission per loop (Option not required by BS EN54-2)
This mode is programmed at access level 3. The user can auto learn multiple
loops simultaneously.
Alarm verification (Option not required by BS EN54-2)
This mode is programmed at access level 3. This has the flexibility to delay the
activation of detectors by 30 seconds.
In the event of an alarm from a detector, the led of the detector will be illuminated
and no alarm will be displayed on the panel. The detectors are checked continuously
for 30 seconds. If after this time, the detector is still in alarm, the output will be
activated otherwise the detector will be reset.

12 INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL 25-15049-G October 2021 www.eaton.com
3. About the xDetect Fire Panel System
Timer T1/T2 (Option not required by BS EN54-2)
This mode is set on at access level 3 and is a commonly used by
Eastern European Countries.
In the event of a Fire the timer T1 can be set from 1 to 3 mins where the alarm will
be displayed on the panel and no output activation, if during this time the alarm is
acknowledged then timer T2 can be set from 1-10 mins where the alarm can be
investigated and alarm reset.
However if timer T1 & T2 time out during alarm activation, the outputs
will be activated.
Timer T1/T2 with Call point Override (Option not required by BS EN54-2)
This is similar to the above except a call point alarm will activate the output instantly.
3.3 Ancillary Functions
Relays/auto-dialers and auxiliary equipment
A wide variety of relays and other equipment can be connected to the system, but
you should note the following constraints:
• The panel provides monitored outputs to drive fire and fault relays mounted in
external equipment. External relays should be suppressed. If a non-suppressed
relay is used then a diode can be connected to suppress any reverse EMF on the
release of the relay which might cause the panel to malfunction
• A 24V DC output is provided at the panel to make it easy to connect ancillary
equipment. Although the panel can supply a continuous quiescent load of up to
30 mA, BS 5839-1 precludes this practice and any ancillary equipment you
connect should only consume power in the alarm or fault mode to meet the
requirement of BS 5839-1.

Suitable environments
The panel should be installed in a clean, dry, reasonably well ventilated place, and
not in direct sunlight. Temperatures in excess of 40°C and below -5°C should
be avoided, if in doubt consult Eaton. The panel should be located away from any
potential hazard, in a position where it is readily accessible to authorised staff, and
the fire services, ideally on the perimeter of a building near a permanent entrance.
Mount the panel to the wall using dimensions provided in Figs. 3 & 5.
Do not drill through the panel to the wall as dust will contaminate the circuitry.
Installation guide
• Never carry out insulation tests on cables connected to electronic equipment
• DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN TERMINAL CONNECTOR SCREWS (Max. 4.5 lb-inch)
• Always use the correct type of cables specifically designed for the operation of
fire detection and alarm circuits
• Always adhere to volt drop limitation when sizing cables
• Always observe polarity throughout.
Non colour coded conductors should be permanently identified
• Screen continuity must be maintained throughout the entire loop circuit including
at each junction point and at each device, terminals are provided on each device to
facilitate this
• The screen should be earthed at the connection point provided at the panel and
not at any other point. Both the loop start and the loop end must be connected
to the appropriate earthing points. Care must be taken to avoid connecting the
screen to the earthed body of any metal devices, enclosures,cable containment
or building earth. The screen or drain wire of the loop cables should not be
considered as safety earth and therefore should not be connected to terminals
marked with the earth symbol, except at the panel, and should not be insulated
with green and yellow sleeving
• The panel utilises intelligent soft addressing technology to greatly simplify the
installation and commissioning processes. Once the system has been installed
and the autolearn menu selected, the control panel will automatically scan the
detection loops and allocate each device with an address number corresponding
with its position on the loop, this avoids the traditional need for manual addressing
of the system devices which is time consuming and provides a potential for error
• It is of vital importance that accurate details are kept of the exact wiring route in
order to determine which address has been allocated to each device
Read all the installation instructions before commencing with the installation.
The installation of this panel must be carried out by a suitably qualified /trained
person. The installation must comply with IET wiring regulations (BS 7671) and with
BS 5839-1. The electronic components within the fire panel are Static Sensitive.
Do not touch the electronics directly.
