Honeywell Gent Vigilon A3 Mimic Instruction manual

Customised Mimic
Zonal Mimic
A Vigilon A3 Mimic panel (VIG-MIM-A3) must be
connected to a loop circuit of a Vigilon fire detection and
alarm system. It is used to provide indication of fire
events in the system. However it can also be used to
provide indication of fault and supervisory events in the
system. The panel can be mounted in landscape or
portrait orientation.
A Customised Mimic holds a pictorial overlay that
represents the protected building or an area within. A fire
event is indicated by the illumination of appropriate red
LEDs behind the overlay to show the location of the fire.
A Zonal Mimic provides a traditional zone by zone
indication of a fire. Each zone is given a location label to
identify the area within a building.
The panel illumination defaults to a Zonal Mimic but can
be reprogrammed during commissioning to be a
Customised Mimic. An array of red lights illuminates
individually or in groups. Illuminations may be applied to
include custom shapes, text and digital clock in small or
large size. A site specific 'welcome message' may be
configured for display during quiescent conditions that
can scroll if it is too long to fit the display area. First or
last fire flashing option, with in phase or anti phase flash.
The panel has its own mains derived power supply with
battery for standby power in the event of mains supply
failure.

Mounting the backbox
The A3 Customised Mimic panel can be mounted either
landscape or portrait, while an A3 Zonal mimic panel must
only be mounted landscape when using the overlay
supplied.
a. Locate the package Back box assembly u.
Landscape orientation
Portrait orientation
b. Knock out the required cable entry points from the
back box.
c. Mark out the 4-back box fixing positions on the wall to
which the panel is to be mounted and secure it with
suitable fixings.
&Ensure the mains power is isolated to
from the panel.
d. Terminate the loop and mains cables at the entry
points and if required connect the cables to the
appropriate terminals.
e. All the other parts are installed during commissioning.

External wiring
The external cables are routed into the back box using the
cable entry points on the back box. The left 4 entry points
are for the loop cables that connects to terminal block P16.
The right cable entry point is for the mains cable which is
connects to the terminal block P9.
"All the other parts supplied with the A3 mimic
panel are fitted during the commissioning stage, however
the procedures are described here for completeness.
How to fit the inner door assembly
The following procedures describe how to fit the inner
door assembly to the backbox.
Align the inner door assembly vto the two hinge pin
positions jon the back box uand slide the door down
until it is seated correctly. Insert the top (removable) hinge
pin kand secure it by rotating the pin into the back box.
Close the inner door assembly land lock it using the
fastners at position m. For minor adjustment of the inner
door, open the fixing screw and adjust the hinge plate
to a required position and then secure the plate to the
backbox by tightening the screw .
Where to connect the internal cables
Remove the protective cardboard cover from the Master
Repeat Card. Connect the earth lead jfrom the back box
to the inner door assembly. Connect the flat flexible cable
kto socket P13 on the Master Repeat Card , see details
on fitting and remove of flat flexible cable.
How to disconnect a flat flexible cable
Hold the locking tab by the
edges at positions jand
lift it upwards one side at a
time kto disengage the flat
flexible cable. Then remove
the cable lfrom the
socket.
How to connect a flat flexible cable
Hold the locking tab by the
edges and lift it upwards a
little jand insert the flat
flexible cable kinto the
socket. Ensure the cable
contacts are on the opposite
side to the locking tab. Push
down the locking tab lto
lock the cable.
Setting the switch SW3
A Customised Mimic panel or Zonal
Mimic panel requires the switch SW3
located on the Master Repeat Card to
be set to position '0'.

Power up
Fit the two battery upright inside the backbox , in the
correct orientation with the + terminal to the left, between
the 'battery stop brackets'. Connect the battery lead {and
link wire |as illustrated in the diagram above. The mains
power to the panel can then be switched ON. Power up
from battery only is possible by pressing switch SW2 on
MRC.
Lamp Test
Press the button located on the bottom centre face of the
panel to conduct a 'lamp test'. The test will illuminate
alternate blocks of LEDs so that they can be checked and
sound the two tone internal buzzer for the test duration.
Zonal Mimic overlay
A landscape Zonal Mimic makes use of the zonal overlay
supplied. An editable PDF file of the zonal overlay is
available on the Gent Expert Forum
(www.gentexpert.co.uk). The file is used for the entry of
zone labels and subsequent printout on to one of the blank
A3 sheets supplied.
Customised Mimic overlay
To create a customised mimic plan use the LED spacing
sheet provided to draw a representation of the protected
building or areas within, such that the layout is drawn
around the LED matrix. The final plan may be drawn using
a CAD package and printed to one of the blank A3 sheets
supplied, to make the customised mimic overlay. To avoid
waste of blank A3 sheets supplied, do a trial print to
normal A3 paper and check the plan for alignment with the
LED matrix.
How fit an overlay
Place the required printed overlay on top of the LEDs and
align the plan such that it fits inside the LED matrix and
hold the overlay in place using the magnetic strip. The
overlay is secured in place when the outer cover is fitted to
the panel.
How to fit the outer cover
Hook the Outer Cover
over the top edge of
the Back Box . Close
the bottom of the Outer
Cover onto the Back box
and secure the Outer
Cover by the two captive
screws on the cover using
the key supplied.
Ensure the zonal mimic
or customised mimic
plan is located centrally
within the anti glare
window of the outer
cover.
