3. About the xDetect Fire Panel System
xDetect provides all of the sophisticated features required of a leading edge analogue
addressable fire system along with the simple operation and neat installation
demanded by installers and building users.
The panel can be flush or surface mounted and the generously sized metal back box
allows ample facilities for rear or top cable entries and is available in single two and
four loop versions.
A comprehensive range of ancillary devices are available to operate with the panel,
including Optical, photo-thermal and heat sensors, base mounted and stand alone
sounders (including IP67 versions) a loop powered beacon and a wide
range of interfaces.
Each of the components has been specifically designed to operate as part of a
system, this provides an assurance that the panel, the sensors, the interfaces and
the ancillaries are all fully compatible with each other and that the full range of
system functionality is supported by each device.
Each loop of the control panel can accommodate up to 200 addresses and 256
zones, panels are available in two or four loop format. Up to 250 panels can be
networked together to form a single system capable of operating up
to 200,000* devices.
*(200 devices x 4 loop cards) x 250 networked panels = 200,000 devices

3. About the xDetect Fire Panel System
3.1 Functions relating to BS EN54
Optional functions as per BS EN54-2 & BS EN54-4
The panel is approved to BS EN54-2 & BS EN54-4 including all the following options
which can be selected as required
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
no. EOLCF3VDS), is used for the automatic transmission of the fire signals to fire
alarm routing equipment
(e.g. Fire brigade). It operates by providing 24 V output to an auxiliary
device (e.g. relay).
It is current limited to 100 mA using a resettable polyswitch, but load limited to
30 mA. Class change and test conditions do not operate this output. If operated
under a fire alarm condition, the indication will be displayed on the Touch screen
display and will remain until the fire alarm is reset.
Ensure the polarity of the connections are observed at all times and end of line
device (provided) is fitted for correct operation.

3. About the xDetect Fire Panel System
Alarm Confirmation Input from fire alarm routing equipment - Found on IO card
(14-0409) when programmed via xDetectWorks
(Option 7.9.2 EN54 PT2)
This input, which is monitored using an end of line device, is used for the
confirmation from the fire alarm routing equipment. The confirmation output from the
fire alarm routing equipment must be connected via a 200ohm resistor.
It operates by using the output (e.g. relay) of the fire alarm routing equipment
connecting the 200ohms in parallel with the end of line device (200 + diode).
Ensure the polarity of the connections are observed at all times and end of line
device (200 + diode) is fitted for correct operation.
Output to fire alarm protection equipment - Found on IO card (14-0409) when
programmed via xDetectWorks
(Option 7.10 BS EN54-2)
This output, which is fused, and monitored using an end of line device (Eaton
part no. EOLCF3VDS) used for the transmission of the fire signals to controls for
automatic fire protecting equipment (e.g. Door released units etc). It operates by
providing 24 V output to an auxiliary device ( e.g. relay).
It is current limited to 100 mA using a resettable polyswitch ,but load limited to
30 mA. Class change and test conditions do not operate this output. If operated
under a fire alarm condition , this output remains energised until the fire
alarm is reset.
Ensure the polarity of the connections is observed at all times and end of line device
(200  + diode) is fitted for correct operation.
FPE confirmation input from fire protection equipment – found on IO card
(14-0409) when programmed via xDetectWorks
(Option 7.10.3 EN54 PT2)
This input, which is monitored using an end of line device, is used for the
confirmation from the fire protection equipment. The confirmation output from the
fire alarm routing equipment must be connected via a 200ohm resistor.
It operates by using the output (e.g. relay) of the fire protection equipment
connecting the 200ohms in parallel with the end of line device (200 + diode).
Ensure the polarity of the connections are observed at all times and end of line
device (200 + diode) is fitted for correct operation.
ote:N The confirmation from the fire protection equipment can also be provided by
an MCIM (Micro Single Channel Input Units) connected to one of the
loop cards.

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
