Mounting, installation, commissioning and maintenance
●If you require tools such as a ladder, these must be safe and must be intended
for the work in hand.
●When starting the fire control panel ensure that unstable conditions cannot
arise.
●Ensure that all points listed in the 'Testing the product operability' section below
are observed.
●You may only set controls to normal function when the product operability has
been completely tested and the system has been handed over to the customer.
Testing the product operability
●Prevent the remote transmission from triggering erroneously.
●If testing building installations or activating devices from third-party companies,
you must collaborate with the people appointed.
●The activation of fire control installations for test purposes must not cause
injury to anyone or damage to the building installations. The following
instructions must be observed:
– Use the correct potential for activation; this is generally the potential of the
building installation.
– Only check controls up to the interface (relay with blocking option).
– Make sure that only the controls to be tested are activated.
●Inform people before testing the alarm devices and allow for possible panic
responses.
●Inform people about any noise or mist which may be produced.
●Before testing the remote transmission, inform the corresponding alarm and
fault signal receiving stations.
Modifications to the system design and the products
Modifications to the system and to individual products may lead to faults,
malfunctioning and safety risks. Written confirmation must be obtained from
Siemens and the corresponding safety bodies for modifications or additions.
Modules and spare parts
●Components and spare parts must comply with the technical specifications
defined by Siemens. Only use products specified or recommended by
Siemens.
●Only use fuses with the specified fuse characteristics.
●Wrong battery types and improper battery changing lead to a risk of explosion.
Only use the same battery type or an equivalent battery type recommended by
Siemens.
●Batteries must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner. Observe
national guidelines and regulations.

3 Setup and function
3.1 Overview
Figure 1: Multi line separator module FDCL221-M
The multi line separator module FDCL221M contains several separate line
separators.
Each line separator can detect short-circuits in the FDnet/C-NET and disconnect
the detector line.
The multi line separator module is intended to allow easier conversions from
collective detector lines to the Sinteso/Cerberus fire detection system with the
FDnet/C-NET bus system.
Properties
●Compatible with fire detection system FS20/FS720 and FC360
●Communication via the detector line
●Individual addressing of line separators for easy location identification
●Number of FDnet/C-NET loops can be configured using jumpers
●9 line separators in one FDnet/C-NET loop or 2 x 4 line separators in two
FDnet/C-NET loops
●Safeguards the FDnet/C-NET against short-circuits when sub-stubs are
connected
●Status indicator (LED) for each line separator
●Easy way of connecting sub-stubs
●Different types of mounting
●Maintenance-free

Applications
●If multiple sub-stubs are to be connected to a single point on the FDnet/C-NET
detector line, either another FDnet/C-NET device or a line separator must be
mounted between the sub-stubs.
●Time-optimized modernization of collective detector lines on the addressed
FDnet/C-NET system.
You will find information on permissible topologies in fire detection systems
FS20/FS720 in the 008843 (for 'Sinteso') and A6V10210362 (for 'Cerberus PRO')
documents in the 'Line separation function' chapter.
You will find this information for the fire detection system FC360 in document
A6V10421795.
Mounting
●Installation in intermediate distributor or directly in a fire control panel
●Mounting directly on a U-rail TS35
●Mounting directly on a flat surface with two screws

3.2.4 Adjustment elements
The multi line separator module has four jumpers, J1...J4. These jumpers can be
used to configure whether the FDCL221-M is to be operated in one FDnet/C-NET
loop or two FDnet/C-NET loops.
Jumpers J1...J4 have the following two plug positions:
1-loop operation 2-loop operation
The jumpers are plugged on 1-loop operation when delivered.

2Function [➙19]
3.3 Function
The multi line separator module FDCL221-M has several electronic switches
(line separators). The following operation modes can be configured using jumpers:
●1-loop operation
(9 line separators in one FDnet/C-NET loop)
●2-loop operation
(4 line separators each in two FDnet/C-NET loops)
The function of the line separator in the FDnet/C-NET loop is to connect sub-stub
lines to the FDnet/C-NET and selectively disconnect them in the event of a short-
circuit. In the event of a short-circuit the line separator disconnects the affected bus
area in the FDnet/C-NET so that the area unaffected by the short-circuit continues
to function.
The multi line separator module has 2 x 4 screw terminals for the FDnet/C-NET
loops and a 20-pin connector with socket strip for the ten sub-stub lines. A
maximum of two different loops can be connected.
The status of each line separator is indicated by a yellow LED. The LED flashes if
the line separator is open or in localization mode.
The multi line separator module is installed in the intermediate distributor or directly
in the fire control panel.
NOTICE
