FCC compliance

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a

Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits

are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, may cause h

armful interference to radio communications.

There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equ

ipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or

more of the following measures:

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•

Industry Canada information

The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets

certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements. Industry Canada does not

guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the

local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of

connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent

degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the

supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the

telecommunications company cause to request the user disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone

lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be

particularly important in rural areas.

Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate

electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will United Technologies Corporation be liable for

any lost profits or business opportunities, loss of use, business interruption, loss of data, or any other indirect,

special, incidental, or consequential damages under any theory of liability, whether based in contract, tort,

negligence, product liability, or otherwise. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of

liability for consequential or incidental damages the preceding limitation may not apply to you. In any event the

total liability of United Technologies Corporation shall not exceed the purchase price of the product. The foregoing

limitation will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, regardless of whether United

Technologies Corporation has been advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of whether any

remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Installation in accordance with this manual, applicable codes, and the instructions of the authority having

jurisdiction is mandatory.

While every precaution has been taken during the preparation of this manual to ensure the accuracy of its

contents, United Technologies Corporation assumes no responsibility for errors or omissions.

Introduction

This manual provides instructions for installing an FW-UL6W FireWorks workstation. It is intended for authorized

and product-certified distributors who are responsible for the installation of fire alarm equipment and are already

familiar with multiplex fire alarm systems and the relevant codes and standards.

This document does not provide instructions for installing or using the FireWorks graphical command interface

software, or for programming a FireWorks life safety system.

Description

The FW-UL6W provides the hardware platform for a FireW orks life safety system. See Figure 1.

Figure 1: FW-UL6W FireWorks workstation

The FW-UL6W uses a hardware RAID 1 hard drive array consisting of two separate hard drives. Both hard drives

store the same data. If one drive fails, the other drive continues to operate with all of the data intact.

The FW-UL6W is suitable for use as:

•A workstation in a FireWorks stand-alone life safety network

•A client workstation in a FireWorks nonredundant life safety network

•A client or witness server in a FireWorks redundant life safety network

•The communication transmission medium between VESDA detectors and EST3/EST3X life safety systems.

For releasing service applications, the FW-UL6W may not control, manipulate, or display any releasing device

service features.

•A Firefighter Smoke Control Station (FSCS)

•Building System Information Unit (BSIU)
