Introduction 3
Wireless devices
Chapter 1
Introduction
The VEGA-SAGITTARIUS integrated wireless system is the result of an accurate
analysis of in-depth research into issues relating to difficult applications (for
example, notable buildings and places of architectural importance) and the high cost
of redecoration work after installation. It is also a truism that wireless systems are
unable to effectively replace traditional hard-wired systems, as their reduced-
performance (attributable to the deployment of conventional detectors which are
incapable of transmitting fault signals) tends to keep maintenance, and consequently
running costs, high.
This is why we decided to develop a wire-to-wireless system that provides a means of
adapting hard-wired analogue-addressable fire alarm systems to suit the needs of
difficult applications.
VEGA is the brand name of a series of analogue-addressable fire-detection devices
which interact with control panels via an appropriate communication protocol.
SAGITTARIUS is the name of a series of wireless analogue-addressable fire-detection
devices which communicate over a wireless-based gateway through a protocol
translator that allows the control panel to manage wireless devices as if they were
directly connected to the loop.

Chapter 2
System architecture
The wireless section of the fire-alarm system comprises a VW2W interface module
that is connected to, and powered by, the loop. The interface communicates with the
system it serves through the communication protocol used by the control panel, and
receives signals from SAGITTARIUS series devices over the Virtual Wire ® wireless-
based link, that also has the task of ensuring data-transmission quality, device
response, etc.
2.1 Maximum configuration (Wireless section)
The VW2W interface module manages 32 addressable points employing the devices
listed in Table 1. The control panel regards these as devices with sequential
addresses, starting from the address assigned to the translator component (which is
directly connected to the loop).
The wireless system comprises a full product line-up of EN54-XX compliant fire
detection devices.
These devices have been developed using latest generation wireless communication
components resulting in higher efficiencies and lower-power consumption.
The 32 device limit is in accordance with EN54-2 requirements relating to “control
and signalling devices”. This standard requires that no more than 32 devices run the
risk of being out-of-service at any one time (§12-5-3), due to interruption and/or
short-circuit on the detection line.
The wireless transmission between the translator and its devices is as prescribed in
the reference standard pr54-24.
2.2 Wireless range
The translator delivers high performance when its devices are at open-area distances
of 200m. The range can be extended to by a further 600m by means of a wireless
range extender which provides a repeater signal to the main access point.
The system manages up to 6 wireless range extenders on 6 different levels. When all
6 are deployed in conjunction the open-area range can be extended to 3,600m.

System architecture 5
Wireless devices
2.3 Communication mode
The wireless devices communicate with the translator and wireless range extenders
using 868Mhz frequency band with GFSK modulation.
The data transmission system comprises 7 channels. The data transmission channel
is selected in accordance with signal quality.
Data transmission is bi-directional with feedback (acknowledge).
In order to avoid interference from other systems in the surrounding area, the
system provides several protection features such as: system codes, automatic
transmission collision avoidance, cyclic redundancy check (to verify data integrity).
The data transmission is crypted too.
The system also automatically manages the transmission power, transmission quality
(according to the measured Received Signal strength Indication).

Chapter 4
VW2W protocol translator
The VW2W Protocol translator is connected to, and powered by the loop. It
communicates with the control panel via VEGA communication protocol.
4.1 Connecting the translator to the detection line
Using terminal 1 (vedi Figura 1), connect the translator to the detection line. Be sure
to observe proper polarity.
Figure 1 - Board and terminals
4.2 Enrolling wireless devices onto the translator
This operation consists of enrolling all the individual wireless devices onto the
translator, and therefore onto the control panel.
Enrolling can be implemented:
• locally, using the keys on the translator
• from a PC via RS232, using the WirelEx software application

4.3 Enrolling locally
Connect the translator to the detection line, or to a 24Vdc (15Vdc – 40Vdc) or to the
ARGUS ‘line driver’:
1. On power-up, various symbols appear on the display for approximately 1 second
2. The display then clears (Status 0)
Using the Ú: keys, you can scroll the various function statuses:
•Loop: allows the configuration of the translator
with regard communications between the translator
and the detection line.
•Rf: allows the configuration of the translator with
regard communications between the translator and
its wireless devices.
•Info: gives information about traslator status .
4.4 LOOP configuration — Translator to Detection Line
(Status 0-1)
If you select LOOP mode, the system will assign an address to the translator that is
connected to the detection line. This address will be the first address of all the
wireless devices.
It is not necessary to reserve 32 addresses on the detection line, as only the number
of addresses actually required by the translator (for its enrolled wireless devices) will
be employed.
1. Status LOOP: display will show “
Loop ” (Status 0-1)
2. Press the ;key: display will show “
SA ” (Start Address) (Status 0-1-1)
3. Press the ;key: display will show the
current address of the translator
(Status 0-1-1-1) Using the keys,
assign the required address
4. Press the ;key to confirm the
selection. The display will show “ SA ”
again and will step back to point 1
(Status 0-1-1), where you can change
the address.
5. Press the ækey to exit (Status 0-1)
Changing the address of the translator does not entail changing the previously-
assigned addresses of the wireless devices, as their new addresses will be assigned
automatically (starting from the new address of the translator).
