SECTION 2: INSTALLATION
2.1 Mounting Instructions
Consider the following guidelines when selecting Detector location:
1. As with all flame and fire Detectors, avoid areas that contain radiant energy sources (such as radiant
heaters, high intensity lamps, flare-stacks, etc.) in close proximity to the Detector’s field of view.
2. Detectors should not be mounted so that they look up or face the horizon (especially outdoors). Use
a minimum thirty degrees (30°) downward angle with the SM4 swivel mount (see Figure 2-1).
3. Make sure the Detector has a clear, unobstructed view of the threat area. Physical obstructions
between a fire and the Detector may cause the fire to be undetected.
4. The Model SM4 is a 316 Stainless Steel Swivel Mount designed for the FSC Detector housing. The
adapter plate, with the two (2) screw holes (facing away), is attached to the base of the Detector (see
Figure 2-1). The mounting plate, with the four (4) screw holes (facing towards), is used for mounting
the SM4 to a solid surface. Each adjustment increment along an axis is calibrated to 10°. For single
axis adjustments, the center section need not be installed.
5. Avoid mounting the Detectors in areas where temperatures exceeds the specified operating
temperature range (see Sections 1.2.3 & 1.2.5).
6. Detector Conduit Entries
a) If only one conduit entry is used, correctly install and seal the conduit plug on the unused entry,
¾ in. NPT or 25mm (see Figure 2-2).
b) Install an approved conduit trap or drain, if required to meet hazardous area classifications per
NFPA 70: National Electrical Code, latest revision.

Note the following Precautions:
1. Do not touch the sensors’ windows on the front of the
Detector electro-optical electronics module (puck). If touched
accidentally, they should be cleaned following the instructions
listed below (see Figure 2-4).
2. When cleaning the Detector’s sensor windows on the puck, it
is best to use Alcohol or IPA sparingly and a cotton swab.
3. There are no serviceable parts inside the Detector puck. If the
puck is opened up or tampered with, all warranties are voided.

Detector Connections (continued)
ATTENTION: FSX Power-Up – After the application of 24 VDC power or resetting the Detector, wait a
mimimum of (thirty) 30 seconds to allow the Detector’s sensors to normalize to the
spectral background conditions.
FSX Testing - As with any intelligent IR Detector, please wait a minimum of thirty (30)
seconds between tests (i.e., butane lighter, FSC test lamp, or test fires) to allow the
Detector’s sensors to normalize to the spectral background conditions.
Changing the Detector Settings – To activate changes to the settings using SW1,
SW2 and SW3, reset the Detector by removing and re-applying 24 VDC input power.
1. Make sure that the external 24 VDC power is turned OFF before connecting the Detector.
2. Avoid wire splices. However, if wire splices are required, all splices should be soldered and properly
insulated. The use of good wiring practices will simplify installation, improve reliability and facilitate
maintenance.
3. For applications requiring analog/digital communications, please refer to Section 3.2 of this instruction
manual.
2.4 Installation Practices
For installations in a Hazardous Classified Area, consult the National Electric Code Handbook, Articles 500
through 517 for the proper installation practices. For locations outside of the United States, observe local
and/or regional regulations.
IMPORTANT: The Detector’s metal conduit plug by itself cannot make a weather tight seal. Metal-to-metal
does NOT provide protection against the ingress of moisture. It is necessary to obtain an approved material
to apply to the threads in order to maintain the “weather-proof” integrity and satisfy local/regional regulations.
Before completing the installation, check that the Detector is configured correctly for the specific
application. The FSX Detectors Factory Default Settings are:
Alarm Relay Outputs are Non-Latching and Normally De-Energized
SW2-1 OFF
SW2-7 OFF
Detector Range / Sensitivity is Medium
SW2-2 OFF
SW2-3 ON
Auxiliary Relay Verify Time is set to 5 Seconds
SW2-4 ON
SW2-5 ON
FACTORY USE ONLY
SW2-6 OFF
Fault Relay Output is Normally Energized
SW2-8 ON
Communication is set to FireBusII
SW3 is set to Position 4
Factory Use Only
SW1-1 through SW1-3 OFF
Digital Communication Address is set to 127
SW1-4 through SW1-10 ON
If the application for the Detector requires different settings, refer to Section 3.2 for detailed descriptions.
Before applying 24 VDC power to the Detector, make sure:
1. Wire connections are correct (Section 2.3). Each wire must be stripped properly to the correct length,
loose wire strands must be removed and each wire must be securely and firmly screwed clockwise in
the connector.
2. If using conduit, ensure a proper conduit seal, (appropriate for the area classification), has been
installed and all measures to prevent moisture ingress have been taken.
3. The FSX Detector is securely mounted and has an unobstructed view of the area of coverage
(Section 2.1).
4. The Detector window is unobstructed and clean.
The Detector is now ready for Power-Up. On Power-Up, the Fault Relay will change status if the Factory
Default Setting is used (Section 3.2).

2.5 Start-Up and Commissioning
During Start-Up and Commissioning, DISABLE all outputs from the Detector to any control panels or control
devices. After the Detector(s) is powered, as with all flame and fire detectors, one should conduct an external
Detector test “end to end”. Using an external hand-held test lamp ensures that the Detector has a clear
unobstructed view of the threat area.
Note: Honeywell Analytics FSX Detectors feature an automatic built-in "through the lens" test that
verifies the cleanliness of its viewing window lens every three seconds and tests it internal
electronics and software. As with all optical fire and flame detectors, this does not constitute
a fully functional "end to end" test as these types of internal self-tests only partially check and
test the operational readiness of a detector.
In order to test the full functionality and operational readiness of any fire or flame detector
"end to end", without starting a real fire (which is not permitted in hazardous areas), it is
necessary to test the detector(s) with an external test lamp
Using a test lamp is the only non-hazardous and safe method to test any flame or fire
detector’s sensors, internal electronics and its alarm activation software, viewing window lens
cleanliness, terminal wiring integrity, actual relay activation, and the proper functionality of
any other outputs that are used. Also, since most detectors are installed in a fire alarm
system, this is the only method to test the complete fire alarm system, ensuring all the system
wiring and cabling and system control panel are properly installed.
Additionally, using an external test lamp eliminates the following detector conditions:
1. The fire or flame detector(s)' viewing lens being covered up (such as paint, paint over
spray, paint masking material, hanging garments, etc.),
2. Improperly positioned and orientated for coverage of the threat area,
3. Partial or full blockage of the detector's line of sight by one or more object(s) (i.e., recently
installed air ducts or pipes, storage boxes, vehicles, etc. such that the threat area is not
fully protected. Since all optical fire and flame detectors are line-of-sight devices, they
must be properly positioned and oriented with an unobstructed view of the threat area so
that they can detect flames/fires.
To test the full functionality of the FSX Detector, use the Model TL1055X or TL2055X Test
Lamp in the manner prescribed in this Instruction Manual.
The TL1055X and the TL2055X are the only Test Lamps that will activate the FSX Detectors.
Additionally, do not use these Test Lamps to activate other Honeywell Analytics Detectors
(nor any other conventional fire and flame detectors). Do not use other Honeywell Analytics
Test Lamps to test the FSX Detectors.

WARNING: Use test lamp model TL1055s in non-hazardous locations only! For hazardous
locations, use models TL2055 or TL2145, as described below.

Installation Guide and Operating Manual // Model FS19X™ & FS20X™ Series
Honeywell 11
Start-Up and Commissioning (continued)
Remember to disable the outputs, as a full functional test includes activating the ALARM outputs. A
Honeywell Analytics Test Lamp must be used for this test (Section 4.4). Point the Test Lamp directly at the
front of the Detector (on axis as much as possible, within a distance of about 1 to 25 feet). Activate the Test
Lamp by pressing and holding its pushbutton. While watching the ALARMLED on the face of the Detector,
slowly move the Test Lamp’s boresight to ensure the Detector receives its full intensity. (NOTE: Practicing
this technique may help to optimize testing of the FSX Detectors). (Sections 3.6 and 4.4). The
Detector’s ALARM LED will illuminate, usually within three (3) to ten (10) seconds. Also, the ALARM Relay
outputs will activate and the 4-20 mA analog output will increase to 20 mA (±0.6 mA).
If the Detector fails to respond within ten (10) seconds, do the following:
1. Wait ten (10) to twenty (20) seconds before performing another test.
2. Check the Distance: verify that the testing distance is between one (1) and twenty-five (25) feet
from the FSX Detector(s).
3. Check Aiming Accuracy: verify that the proper testing technique (as described above) is
followed.

SECTION 3: OPERATION
3.1 Principle of Operation
Honeywell Analytics' Multi-Spectrum, Multi-Spectral and MultiBand™Infrared and Ultraviolet Fire and Flame
Detectors are sophisticated, state of the art, electro-optical digital radiant energy Detectors that sense the
wideband radiant energy emitted by fire’s combustion processes that include flames’ molecular emissions and
hot particulate blackbody emissions. Radiant Energy Fire Detectors respond much faster to flames and fires at
a longer distance than other types of conventional photoelectric and ionization smoke and heat detectors
because a fire’s emitted radiant energy travels at the speed of light. High speed of response is critical for
detecting flaming fires in time to successfully activate suppression or activate other fire responses such as
closing fire doors. Seconds can make the difference between suppressing a small fire with little or no damage
or having a disastrous fire that overwhelms a suppression system thereby failing to stop the fire.
Infrared (IR) consists of spectral wavelengths longer than the color red and Ultraviolet (UV) consists of
wavelengths shorter than the color violet. For the FS19X/FS20X Detector, the UV and IR range for fire
detection, which a large portion of the spectrum is invisible to the human eye, is from approximately 180 to 3000
nanometers (0.18 to 3.0 microns). Honeywell Analytics’ Detectors sense and measure the radiant energy
generated by a fire at the speed of light.
Honeywell Analytics’ FSX Fire Detectors also use an additional spectral region, the Visible Band, that spans
from about 400 to 700 nanometers (0.4 to 0.7 microns.) The Visible Band is used to further discriminate against
non-fire false alarm sources. The Model FS19X/FS20X Detector senses radiant energy coming from
hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon fires. Built-in microprocessors use sophisticated Digital Signal Processing
(DSP) to accurately distinguish radiant energy from a real fire and a false alarm source(s). Honeywell Analytics
has developed and refined these complex proprietary and patented WideBand IR and UV algorithms for over a
quarter of a century since 1981. These patented algorithms perform real-time DSP, and precisely analyze the
signals in high-resolution frequency and time domains. This decision making process involves thousands of
real-time calculations every second. Honeywell Analytics FSX Detectors use solid-state high speed quantum
sensors (not heat sensors such as pyroelectric or thermopile) that all respond to the fire’s radiant energy
emissions. The quantum sensors convert the rate of photonic energy directly into analog electrical signals.
These analog signals are converted to high resolution digital values for real-time microprocessor analysis.
The Detector microprocessors incorporate random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), and non-
volatile flash memory. When the microprocessors determine that a real fire has been detected, the pre-alarm
digital sensor data (FirePic™) and the event information are recorded in flash memory. Depending on the
configuration, other actions may include activating one or more status LEDs, relays, a current loop and sending
digital data such as the RS-485 FireBusII™, and ModBus. If the microprocessors determine, based on internal
testing and “through-the-lens” testing, that the Detector is not operating correctly, it records the Fault data in
flash memory and activates the Fault outputs and the yellow status LED. The digital data in the Detector can be
easily accessed with a PC for later analysis and record keeping using Honeywell Analytics’ Windows®based

3.3 LED Status Indicators
The Model FS19X/FS20X Detector uses three (3) separate, bright LED’s to indicate the Detector’s status.
•The Green LED blinks (flashes) once every ten (10) seconds to indicate a Normal, safe operational
condition (i.e. no Faults and no Alarms). The Green LED is OFF when no external 24 VDC input
power is applied to the Detector.
•The Red LED turns ON when a fire is Alarmed.
•The Yellow LED blinks (flashes) when the window lens is dirty. For all other Fault conditions, the
Yellow LED will turn ON.
3.4 Normal Operation
In Normal operation, the bright Green LED blinks (flashes) every 10 seconds. See Figure 3-4 for the location
of the Green LED. Normal Operation is defined as the Detector with 24 VDC applied and no Alarm or Fault
conditions are present. If one of the 4-20 mA options are selected (Table 3-1), the current, sink or source, will
be 4.0 mA (±0.06 mA).
Figure 3-4
Green LED Location
3.5 Alarm Condition
When an Alarm condition occurs, the Red LED will turn ON, (factory setting with the Auxiliary relay set to “0”
seconds). See Figure 3-5 for the location of the Red LED.
The Detector has the following outputs with an
Alarm condition:
•Alarm Relay activation
•Auxiliary Relay activation1
•4-20 mA (sink 16 mA) Alarm Output2
•4-20 mA (source 16 mA) Alarm Output2
•4-20 mA (sink 20 mA) Auxiliary Output2
•4-20 mA (source 20 mA) Auxiliary Output2

Fault (Trouble) conditions can be caused by:
•Under Voltage Input Power (< 18 VDC).
•Over Voltage Input Power (> 32 VDC).
•Over Temperature (> 85° C or 185° F for the Standard Version).
•Over Temperature (> 110° C or 230° F for the Extended Temperature Version).
•Under Temperature (< -40° C or -40° F for the Standard Version).
•Under Temperature (< -50° C or -58° F for the Extended Temperature Version).
•One or more Microprocessor Failures.
•One or more Relay Coil Failures.
•Communication Fault.
•Electronic Self-Test Failure.
•Dirty Window Lens (Yellow LED flashes, the Yellow LED is ON [solid] for all other Faults).
3.7 Maintenance
After the FS19X/FS20X Detector is installed and commissioned, there is little maintenance required. However,
a complete “end-to-end” test of the entire fire detection system should be performed periodically depending on
the application. Additionally, semi-annual or quarterly testing should be performed, using the correct
Honeywell Analytics Test Lamp, to ensure the integrity of the entire fire protection system.
The optical window (lens) of the Model FS19X/FS20X Detector should be clean in order to ensure the Detector
is operating properly at all times. It may be necessary to establish a periodic cleaning schedule. Some
industrial environments may necessitate more frequent cleaning of the Detector’s optical surfaces than others.
Clean the window of the FS19X/FS20X Detector each time the housing lid is handled, the window appears
dirty or contaminated, fails the Built-In-Test, or the Detector fails an end-to-end test with the FSC hand-held
portable Test Lamp (TL-1055X or TL-2055X). If necessary, clean the Detector Module Sensors each time the
Detector has been disassembled for wiring or replacement.
Use a blast of clean air or an oil-free cloth to clean the enclosure window. Oil degrades theperformance of UV Detectors.
Occassionally, the use of a solvent, such as alcohol is acceptable. No disassembly of the Detector is required.
DO NOT USE SILICONE-BASED OR COMMERCIAL WINDOW CLEANING PRODUCTS.
THESE WILL DEGRADE THE MODEL FS20X DETECTOR PERFORMANCE.
WARNING – Potential Electrostitic Charge, wipe enclosure only with a damp cloth

4.4 Test Lamps
Some manufacturers claim that their detectors do not need remote testing with an external Test Lamp
because it tests itself. Even though Honeywell Analytics Detectors also perform “through the lens” self-testing
and tests themselves, Honeywell Analytics, in compliance with NFPA 72 codes, has developed portable test
lamps for periodical “end-to-end” testing their Detectors remotely. Some of the most important functions of
the remote test lamp are to ensure the Detector’s optical path is not blocked, the Detector is aimed properly at
the fire threat area (that the Detector mounting bracket didn’t move or was accidentally bumped by someone),
and the Detectors alarming circuitry and outputs (i.e. relays, 4-to-20 mA, open collectors, etc.) function
properly. Internal Detector testing and window lens cleanliness testing cannot insure the Detector is aimed
properly, that its view of the fire scene has not been blocked by something such as a newly installed pipe or
duct, storage box, parked vehicle, etc., and its alarm outputs are functioning properly.
For calibrated testing, in compliance with NFPA 72 Codes for flame detectors, as manufacturers of the FSX
product line, our calibrated testing using our FT-2055X Test Lamp is as follows. If the FS19X/FS20X set at
Highest Sensitivity alarms to a fully charged FT-2055X Test Lamp at a distance between 1 and 25 feet, then
the FS19X/FS20X is in normal operating condition.
WARNING: Use test lamp model TL1055s in non-hazardous locations only! For
hazardous locations, use models TL2055 or TL2145, as described below.
TL1055X is a general purpose NEMA 1 hand held
rechargeable Test Lamp
designed for testing the
FSX™ Detectors externally. The hand held Test
Lamp (see Figure 4-1) comes with a Universal
Charger (110 VAC and 220 VAC).
TL2055X is a Class I, Div. 1 approved Explosion-
Proof Test Lamp
designed for testing the FSX™
Detectors externally, in a hazardous locatio
n. The
hand held Test Lamp (see Figure 4-2) comes with a
Universal Charger (110 VAC and 220 VAC).

4.5 Field of View Restrictor
There are some unique and specialized applications that may require a restricted field of view in order to
prevent the Detector from alarming to a known (friendly) fire/flame source (such as a flare stack). The Model
FVR-01 Field-of-View Restrictor is eas
ily modified in the field with a simple hack saw to obtain custom
Detector field-of-views for applications where specific narrow field-of-views are required. The Model FVR-01
Detector accessory has been developed specifically for these unique types of applications.
