Walk Test Auto Terminate
Causes the automatic termination of walk test after 25 minutes without activity.
There are special functions which can be accomplished with the Gamewell Series 600 Fire Alarm Control Panel. One is
Releasing, which allows control of dump or deluge forms of fire suppression.
RELEASING
The Gamewell Series 600 Fire Alarm Control Panel, with version r7 firmware, and Analog Addressable devices, can
provide all of the required functions to control the releasing of bulk fire suppressant materials. The Series 600 FACP is
currently listed for NFPA 13 Sprinkler, NFPA 11 Low Expansion Foam, NFPA 16 Water Foam, NFPA-17 Dry Chemical
types of suppressant and NFPA 2001 Clean Agent suppressant. NOTE When using the panel for releasing NFPA 2001
agents, a mechanical manual release must be provided in accordance with NFPA 2001.
Operation
The releasing process is started by the activation of two ANDed initiating devices. When the first of the programmed pair
activates it is displayed on the control panel of the FACP and the Signal Circuit output will provide an audible signal at the
rate 60 bpm. When the second of the programmed pair activates, the Signal Circuit output changes to 120 bpm, and the
Predischarge timer starts. The time period of this timer is programmable from 15 second to 60 seconds. At any time during
this timer period, an Abort switch may be activated to manually intervene in the time cycle. There are five modes of Abort
operation, which are selectable through programming.
1. One Shot
(Default) The Abort switch will pause the Predischarge counter as long as the switch is activated.
Upon deactivation of the switch, the counter will resume from where it was paused. Only one
activation of the Abort switch is recognized. Subsequent activations will have no effect on
the Releasing cycle.
2. Timer
Expiry The Predischarge timer continues the count down while the Abort switch is activated, the
Releasing process does not occur until the switch has been deactivated, AND the
Predischarge counter has reached zero.
3. Immediate The Releasing process commences immediately after the deactivation of the Abort switch,
regardless of the Predischarge timer setting.
4. 10 Second
Delay NOTICE: This mode does not conform to UL requirements! It is included since it is allowed
by some AHJs.
The Releasing process commences 10 to 18 seconds after the deactivation of the Abort
switch, regardless of the Predischarge timer setting.
5. Reset Timer NOTICE: This mode does not conform to UL requirements! It is included since it is allowed
by some AHJs.
The Predischarge counter is halted each time the Abort switch is activated, and reset back to
the full programmed delay when the Abort switch is deactivated. This delay cycle can be
initiated as many times as required.
Upon completion of the Predischarge counter cycle, or the programmed Abort operation, the FACP enters into the
Releasing process. The Signal Circuit output will provide a steady signal, and the Discharge delay counter is started. This
counter is programmable from 0 to 30 seconds. At the completion of the programmed delay, the Releasing solenoids are
activated and fire suppressant discharge is performed. A manual Dump switch will immediately initiate the Discharge delay
counter, after the deactivation of the Abort switch (if it is activated), regardless of the state of the Predischarge delay timer.

Programming
WARNING!In order to properly prepare the inputs and
outputs required for Releasing, very specific programming steps
must be performed. Failure to follow these steps could result in
failure of the suppressant to be discharged, or there could be
unplanned discharge of the suppressant.
The following describes the steps to be taken to program the IF 632 FACP for releasing. The detailed programming
instructions can be found in Section 4 Programming.
In order to create a Releasing sub system, it is necessary to select and program Input devices, Control devices, and Output
devices.
Input Devices
Select the first initiating device to activate Releasing, program it as an AND zone and Assign Input Group X
Select the 2nd initiating device to activate Releasing, program it as an AND zone and Assign Input Group X
Control Devices
Select the input device for the Abort switch, program it as an Abort zone and Assign Input Group X
Select the input device for the Dump switch, program it as a Dump zone and Assign Input Group X
Output Devices
Select the Signal Circuit (Conventional) to sound the audible alarm, program it’s Alarm Level (ALR:2) to Releasing
and it’s Signal type (SIG:XXX) to Releasing. Program the Output Group to Y.
Select the Releasing Solenoid Module (RSM-95) to control the releasing solenoid, program it’s Alarm Level (ALR:3)
to Releasing. Program the Output Group to Y.
Tying it together
Program the Control By Event (CBE) table to have Input group X activate Output Group Y
IMPORTANT
Only the Analog Addressable Device RSM-95 with a SID module, installed in accordance with the Wiring Drawing
A-W532-1 should be used to actuate the Releasing Solenoid. This device is Bypassed during a SmartStart to prevent
accidental discharge , should inputs be activated during the generic configuration. After a SmartStart, the correct
configuration should be uploaded to the FACP, the Releasing Solenoid disconnected from the RSM-95, and the
Bypass removed from the RSM-95. After determining that the RSM-95 is not active, the solenoid should be
reconnected.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
IF 632
Control Panel The Gamewell IDENTIFLEX 632 system (IF632), is an Analog/Addressable,
microprocessor based, fire alarm control panel. It is designed to monitor and control
up to 1008 analog addressable input/output points. It can also accommodate up to 56
input or output circuits. The IF632 system is designed to meet the requirements of
medium sized applications. It provides the user with a full range of features including;
self-configuring, self-monitoring, and self-testing. Some of the many other features
the IF632 system offers include; User prompted operation, a 4 line by 40 character
LCD display, programmable input/output circuit types, a 1000 event history log,
Default Alarm Mode, Multiple levels of password protection, easy access wiring
terminals, universal module mounting and many more. All of the IF632 system
functions are fully field programmable from the front panel or may be configured via
computer using its built in, Upload/Download feature.
Modular
Construction The design of the system utilizes a modular building block approach. The base system
consists of the Common Control, the Main Power Supply and the system cabinet with
two card bays and an Analog Addessable card installed. The second bay will
accommodate another Analog Addessable card or any of the 2, 4 or 8 circuit modules
available for the IF632 system. With the addition of an expander cabinet the system
allows for up to 6 additional circuit modules with up to 48 individual circuits or
Auxilliary Power Supplies. Through selection of individual F600 series I/O modules
(i.e. initiating, indicating, control, etc) the user can customize the control panel for
each specific application.
SmartStart
The IF632 control panel utilizes a unique initialization programming process,
SmartStart. This initialization process stores the project specific system
configuration in memory. Then a control-by-event table is automatically created that
allows any system input to activate the system outputs. Upon completion of the
initialization process the system is completely operable in a general alarm situation
with the control-by-event data tables protected in non-volatile memory

provide indication, and prompt the user response to the next sequential action. The
"Power On" LED indicator is green, alarms or activated signal circuits and city tie are
indicated by red LED's. Faults and user prompts are indicated by yellow LED's.
There are four arrow keys for scrolling through events and selecting functions.
Bus Driver
Module The bus driver module (BDM) contains the circuitry that interfaces with the CPU and
system modules. It is equipped with two Style Y or Z, limited energy signaling circuits
(2 amps maximum each) and a city tie circuit. It has three power limited outputs for
24 Vdc auxiliary power, 12 Vdc, and resetable 24 Vdc smoke detector power. The
BDM also monitors the status of the CPU for transfer to default alarm mode of
operation.
Relay Expansion
Module The common relay module provides 4 form C (SPDT) common relay outputs. These
relays transfer during Common Alarm, Common Trouble, and Supervisory. The
common contact on each relay is fused with a 10 amp fuse. Each relay has a monitor
terminal (positive feedback), for status indication of the controlled device. The
common relay module mounts (via standoffs) to the right side of the bus driver
module. A fourth relay is provided for optional applications.
CPU Module The CPU module (or microprocessor module) contains the system operating firmware
and non-volatile memory. A serial communications port is provided for connection to
peripheral devices. All user programmed memory is backed up via its on board
lithium battery.
