•MCP test key
•Printer paper roll (for external printer if used)
•Spare key for equipment cover.
¨Ensure the system standby duration is to the project requirement and the standby
duration has been checked with the Nano Battery Standby Calculator.
Check with the installer
"Ensure the maximum cable length between loop devices has not
exceeded 250m. This is the cable distance between previous and next
device on the loop. If the cable length has been exceeded then
rectification action must be taken.
Installation
¨The system has been installed correctly in accordance with the installation
instructions, respective standards and project specification.
Earth leads
¨All earth leads supplied with the system equipment to include those supplied with
loop devices are securely fitted to maintain earth continuity.
Loop wiring
¨All the devices on the loop have been correctly wired, as shown in the installation
instructions and in accordance with the as fitted wiring drawings.
Parts for later installation
¨Those parts not used during installation have been left in a safe place for use during
system Commissioning.
Points to remember
Unattended equipment
¨Where equipment is to be left unattended ensure the panel cover is fitted for safety.
Static precautions
¨The discharge of static electricity can damage or degrade sensitive electronic
components on printed circuit boards. Antistatic procedures should be followed when
handling static sensitive boards.
&
It is important that antistatic procedures are NOT carried out on live equipment.
Panel Buzzer
&Dangerous voltages exist around the power supply within the panel.
Always ensure the panel is completely powered down before configuring the
buzzer enable / disable link.
¨It may be necessary during commissioning to switch Off the panel buzzer. There is a
buzzer enable (On) / disable (Off) link on the Main Control Board. It is important to
ensure that the buzzer is switched On for normal operation after commissioning.
Sensor cover
¨Each fire sensor installed in the system should have been fitted with a dust cover
during installation. The dust covers must be removed from all the fire sensors after the
panel loop has been satisfactorily powered-up and with addresses allocated to each
device ready for further checks and tests during commissioning.
Site specific installation
¨Plant equipment interfaced to the system should be tested to recommendations made
in the site project specification. These tests are normally left until after the fire system
is configured and tested.
Zone Test mode
¨During commissioning of the system you will need to enable the 'Zone Test' mode or
'Commission mode'. It is important to disable (Switch Off) the 'Zone Test' mode or
exit the 'Commission mode' after the work is over for normal operation.

Preparation for first power up
The mains supply cable must remain connected to the Power supply assembly, but the mains power must remain switched OFF.
Sequentially connect each external circuit one at a time and test it to ensure it is working correctly. It is a good idea to first pull out those terminal blocks of the external circuits to be tested later. Start
with the loop circuit and leave only Loop End-1 connected in preparation for the power up.
The master alarm circuits will require an end-of-line resistor to be fitted at the last alarm device to prevent fault events being raised at the panel. If the master alarm circuits are not being used then
ensure the resistors are fitted to the Master Alarm circuit terminal blocks on the MCB.

&There are LETHAL VOLTAGES present on the Power assembly.
Therefore it is important when working on the MCB or PSU board to completely
power down the panel. The mains supply must be switched Off and the battery
supply disconnected.
Flash Memory protect link P9
A hardware link is provided on the Main Control Board (MCB) to protect the FLASH memory that
holds the system configuration data.
Flash Unprotected: Normally during commissioning the FLASH memory is not required to be
protected to allow the configuration data to be backed-up. The link P9 on the Main Control Board
is placed in the 'Enabled' position to allow data to be backed-up.
Flash Protected: When all the final configuration data is backed- up to the Flash memory and on
completion of all commissioning work, place the link P9 in the 'Disable' position to prevent
inadvertent changes of configuration data being backed-up.
Pull out the tabs jthat secure the LCD assembly and open the LCD assembly kto no more
than 45oangle. Use a prop lsuch as a plastic pen to hold up the assembly when working on the
MCB. If required configure link P9 on the MCB n.
Buzzer enable/disable link P5
The panel buzzer will automatically sound with a fault or fire event. During commissioning it may be
necessary to disable the panel buzzer by configuring the link P5 located on the Main Control
Board. When the link is set in the disable position, the buzzer will not sound with a fault or fire
event. If required configure the link P5 on the MCB m.
"It is important to ensure that the buzzer is switched On for normal operation
after commissioning.

Power up
&Ensure the mains cable is securely connected to the mains terminal
block on the Power supply assembly and then switch On the mains power.
"The fire alarm system products are NOT designed to be powered from IT
Power systems.
All mains powered equipment must be earthed. Mains supply to any fire alarm control and
indicating equipment must be via a dedicated unswitched 5A fused spur unit, which should be
clearly labelled FIRE ALARM - DO NOT SWITCH OFF.
A 'disconnect device' must be provided to disconnect both poles and must have a minimum gap of
3mm. The Disconnect device should be available as part of the building installation and must be
easily accessible after installation is complete.
&Hazardous voltage remains after operation of a protection fuse. Take
appropriate action to guard against the risk of equipment having exposed live
mains supply.
