1 Introduction
This manual contains the information and the instructions required to install, commission, operate and
maintain the JBE-P2L1 (Draco) fire control panel.
Only trained professionals should attempt to install this panel. An incorrect installation may not provide the
performance expected from fire safety devices.
2 General product description
2.1. Overview
The Draco panel is a standalone fire control panel designed for wall mounting. This panel meets the
requirements for fire detection and fire alarm systems of EN 54 part 2 (control and indicating equipment) and
EN 54 part 4 (power supply equipment).
Draco features up to two addressable fire detection and alarm loops. Each panel can control up to 400
compatible detection and alarm loop devices. The panel color LCD and LED zone boards make a friendly
user interface. Comprehensive commissioning and maintenance reports can be obtained through the keypad
or downloaded from the USB port. The panel includes an internal power supply and a battery charger which
will ensure operation even in the event of interruptions of the building’s mains power. Optional expansion
modules such as the printer or the supplementary battery box allow the system to adjust to the installation’s
needs.
2.2. EN 54 optional features
The Draco panel has been designed following the EN 54-2 standard. In addition to its mandatory
requirements, it also provides the following optional features with EN 54 requirements:
Embedded EN 54-4 Power supply with battery charger:
The power supply built in the Draco control panel allows its operation even in the event of interruption of
mains power supply. The panel is compatible with standard 12 V sealed lead-acid batteries of 7, 12 and 17
Ah of capacity. Note that to host the 17 Ah batteries, the optional battery box JBE-BAT is needed.
Detailed diagnostics, indications and control:
Draco features the intelligent JBE loop protocol and a sophisticated user interface. Thanks to this, the system
can process and control real time data from each device connected to the loop. This allows offering the
following features, amongst others:
- Display of status and faults for each loop device (detectors, manual call points, output modules…)
- Disablements of individual points or complete zones
- Disablement of individual output modules or output groups
- Testing individual outputs or output groups
- Setting individual zones in and out of test while the rest of the building remains protected
Loop devices and fire detection zones:
Each Draco panel can drive up to two class A detection loops. Each detection loop can control up to 200
loop addresses, which can be configured for detection and/or alarm functions. That is, each panel can host
a maximum of 400 addressable devices.
Detectors, MCPs and input modules are associated to detection zones. The fire panel logic allows
configuring up to 400 zones. The fire panel’s user interface provides a dedicated LED alarm indicator for
each of the first 30 zones.

Release Date: November 15, 2019 Rev 01
Redundant class-A loop integrity monitoring and self-healing
The addressable loops of the Draco panel can be connected in stubs (class B) or looped (class A) topologies.
When more than 32 initiating devices are connected to the loop, class A topology shall be used and JBE-
2150 isolators shall be installed in the loop to limit the consequences of a short circuit in the loop.
Wiring topologies in class A provide a redundant connection with loop devices. This is the topology with the
highest robustness to wiring faults.
Output group activation:
In response to fire alarm events, up to 400 output groups can be activated with or without programmed
delays. The Draco panel meets the optional requirements regarding outputs to:
- Fire alarm devices (outputs assigned to group 001-SND)
- Fire alarm routing equipment (outputs assigned to group 002-FR).
These two output groups implement the corresponding EN 54-2 requirements regarding programming,
supervision and indication. The remaining 398 groups are freely programmable.
Dependency on more than one alarm signal (type C coincidence detection)
Thanks to the advanced programming menu, the activation of outputs can be linked to the reception of more
than one alarm. In this configuration the panel indicates alarm normally, but the activation of outputs is
inhibited until a second alarm signal is received from another initiating device. Confirmatory signals may
come from detectors or manual call points in the same or another zone.
Day/Night modes of operation
The day/night schedule allows adjusting the fire detection settings to the activity of the building. At the
scheduled times, the fire panel can activate or deactivate delays and change the sensitivity of each detector
independently. The scheduled activation and deactivation of delays is compatible with a manual activation
or deactivation.
Three sensitivity profiles (Day, Night and Special) can be programmed and assigned to the weekly time
periods. This allows selecting the most convenient sensitivity for each detector in each moment of the week.

2.3. Additional ancillary functions
Event/history log with up to 10.000 events
The panel supports the storage of up to 10.000 history events of all types. Authorized users can access the
logs to either review them in the panel, print them or save them to a USB drive.
Non-Polar bus for field devices
The system adopts a non-polar, double-wire addressable bus technology. All compatible loop devices can
operate connected to the communication bus in both polarities.
User interface with rich graphics and in multiple languages
The true color 7” (17.8cm) LCD allows presenting to the user all the ongoing events in real time. Users can
select their preferred language from the user interface.
Integrated events printer
The optional printer module allows printing selected events in real time or during inspection interventions,
Installation wizard:
A step-by-step wizard will support the installer for a quick and simple commissioning. All site configuration
options can be loaded from the fire panel’s user interface.
