CU-IQ MANUAL
1. DESCRIPTION
The small control panel CU-IQ is one component of the new ICAS IQ wireless system. IQ
System is an intelligent radio system, which works at
8 8 MHz frequency band. The IQ System is created
by various kind of IQ components, which provides to
the customer complete and very flexible RF fire alarm
system. All components of the IQ system use a special
RF communication protocol. This protocol handles
building small or large size, smart installations,
depending directly on the user requirements. The
smart installation consist of systems, which control
their local loops of IQ components (nodes). The
systems are connected to the RF (radio frequency) loop, which is identified by the individual Loop
ID number. Each installation depending on complexity can contain from 1 to 8 systems, where
systems are also described with individual System ID. RF communication principle in systems is
based on ”STAR” topology and RF communication principle among systems (all systems in
installation has information about other systems) is based on “P2P” topology. This kind of
configuration and system description allows making very flexible small or large installations
according to customer demands. Big advantage of the system is that most of IQ components are
battery operated with 10 years lifetime. This allows the customer to install all components without
special power supply wiring projection.
Control panel CU-IQ serves as controller of the system. It is equipped with indication of the
local loop events and also with the remote events which could occur in other systems local loop.
CU-IQ tests also communication in the system, also tests communication between other systems
in installation and communication with other system part at RS485 line. The control panel includes
power line and external power supply indication and is equipped with two relay outputs and siren.
The panel functions could be controlled by three push buttons.
The typical application is CU-IQ wireless connection with up to 32 optical detectors CHOR-IQ
(one system with one Loop ID and System ID). The larger application is the configuration from 2 to
8 CU-IQ in installation (up to 8 systems with one Loop ID and different System ID). All CU-IQ
are connected together into loop with identical Loop ID and each CU-IQ has specified its own
System ID. Each system can handle up to 32 assigned CHOR-IQ detectors.
CU-IQ is also equipped with RS485 transceiver, which is used for connection up to 14 RS485
communication modules CU-M.485 or for connection up to 13 CU-IQ. It could be useful for
installations, where could be problem with radio frequency loss.

2. FUNCTION
After power supply is on, the control panel starts with reset indication, where initialization of the
indication and also of the RF module is done. When reset is finished, the panel checks and
indicates actual power state. If everything is normal the green POWER LED is lightning. The
blinking indication on positions FAULT, COMM. LOSS LOOP and SYSTEM is used for detection,
that the panel has not been connected to the RF loop and has not its own unique Loop ID and
System ID yet. If there is the blinking indication that the CU-IQ is not connected into a loop, the
system has to be configured according to ICAS IQ Wireless System Configuration manual first.
After the RF loop configuration, the control panel disabling/enabling and reset is recommended.
The blinking indication FAULT, COMM. LOSS LOOP and SYSTEM disappears, the POWER LED
is lightning only and the CU-IQ starts to monitor the RF loop.
CU-IQ works as a kind of “message repeater” in the IQ system. In case of some event, an IQ
component transmits a message to the CU-IQ, it is translated and transmitted to other systems
in the RF loop (if there are more) and to IQ components of the own local loop. For example, if
there is fire alarm detected by a CHOR-IQ detector, the fire alarm message is transmitted to the
CU-IQ panel and the panel transmits the fire alarm message to other systems first and then to
own local loop - typically to other local loop detectors in order to start their remote alarm indication.
It is very important to install all assigned IQ components in the CU-IQ radio-range.
CU-IQ tests the wireless system integrity periodically and if there is communication loss of some
IQ component discovered the comm. loss fault is indicated.
The CU-IQ panel can be connected into RS485 network. To create RS485 network use please
CONFIGURATION OF RS485 NETWORK on the page 7. Alarm messages from RF loop are
transmitted into RS485 network and contrariwise alarm message from RS485 is transmitted into
RF loop. The CU-IQ panel periodically tests also RS485 network integrity to detect and indicate
eventual communication loss of connected RS485 modules.

. INSTALATION
Install the external power source Power Unit PU first (Follow PU manual). Make sure that mains
of the Power Unit PU as well as PU low voltage output are switched off before CU-IQ
installation. CU-IQ is intended to be installed into an instrument distribution box. Install the CU-
IQ unit at least 0.5m from fuse box or other electrical appliances. Be aware that EMC can harm
the Control Panel.
Before you start instalation of the IQ system, make sure that it is already configured. For
the configuration follow the instructions in IQ Wireless System Configuration manual.
Connect CU-IQ to the Power Unit PU. The recommended cable type is AF CEI 20-22 IEC 332
or VD-04 shielded cable, or equivalent type. Shield of the cable has to be terminated on 0V. Follow
the picture 4.1 on the page 5. In case the CU-IQ is installed into RS485 network, follow the
pictures 4.2 or 4.3 on the page according to the panel is connected with CU-M.485 or other
CU-IQ.
CU-IQ unit has two relay outputs. Terminals for alarm relay are marked ALARM_RELE and NC,
COM. Terminals for fault relay are marked as FAULT_RELE and NC,COM.
Remove the top cover of the CU-IQ carefully. Put screwdriver to the left side of cover groove and
slightly lever to left side and remove the top cover. Place the CU-IQ control panel in vertical
position into instrument distribution box. Use 2 screws to connect both sides of the CU-IQ to the
box. Put the top cover of CU-IQ back.
Switch on mains to start the Power Unit PU. CU-IQ is supplied and starts the reset indication
( indicated by all LED fast flashes ), after reset is finished the green LED is lightning and FAULT,
COMM. LOSS LOOP and SYSTEM LEDs are blinking (unconnected control panel).
Now follow instructions in IQ Wireless System Configuration manual. In case of connection
through RS485 please follow also CONFIGURATION OF RS485 NETWORK on the page 7.

9. TEST OF INSTALATION
!!!To ensure, that each component has enough transmiting power to reach control panel, it is
recomen e to complete following tests!!!
Test will decrease the RF transmiting power in all components about 10 dBm.  CU-IQ processes the
communication tests rom all IQ components which takes approximately 4 min. A ter this test  CU-IQ
transmits the message RF Test to all IQ components, which should indicate it. A ter test is succes ully
done, the user has to press RST to reset the system.
1. Press (SILENCE + TEST) on CU-IQ
2. There is LEVEL II indication ON
3. Press (SILENCE + TEST) on CU-IQ

periodical beeping
5. Press and hold SIREN then push TEST on CU-IQ
. The LEVEL III.A is OFF, the RF Test is blinking
7. Wait approx. 3 min until the RF test is completed
8. Check all IQ components indication – Test should be indicated on all of them
9. In case there is COMM LOSS LOOP LOCAL indicated on CU-IQ, or there is some IQ
component in the loop without Test indication. This IQ component is probably very far from
the CU-IQ.
