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.
Disregard of the safety regulations
Before they are delivered, Siemens products are tested to ensure they function
correctly when used properly. Siemens disclaims all liability for damage or injuries

3.2 Setup
3.2.1 Manual call point
The manual call point FDM243H triggers an alarm when the glass insert is pushed
in and the alarm button is pressed (indirect activation). The alarm is immediately
transmitted to the control panel.
When the alarm is activated, the switching unit must be reset and a new glass
insert installed.

3.3 Function
3.3.1 Danger levels
The manual call point can transmit the following danger levels to the control panel:
Danger level Meaning
0 Normal state, no danger
3 Alarm
Door status
Danger level Meaning
0 Door closed
2 Door open
The evaluation of the danger level and the resulting measures (e.g.activation of
remote transmission) are configured on the control panel.
3.3.2 Internal alarm indicator
The LED indicator of the alarm indicator has the following meanings:
LED indication Meaning
Off ● Normal condition
Green
Flashes once per second
● Test mode is active
Red
Flashes once per second
● Localization is active
o r
● Alarm is triggered
Red and green alternating
Flashes twice per second
● Alarm is triggered/localization is active
a n d
● Test mode is active
3.3.3 Line separator
All FDnet/C-NET devices are equipped with a line separator.
The FDnet/C-NET device is equipped with electronic switches which isolate the
defective part in case of a short-circuit on the FDnet/C-NET detector line. The rest
of the detector line remains serviceable. On a loop line, all FDnet/C-NET devices
remain fully functional after a single short-circuit.
3.3.4 Test mode on the manual call point
You can activate test mode in the fire control panel by opening the door, and
deactivate it by closing the door again. The test mode is only active for a short time
and is indicated by the green LED. Therefore, you should work quickly to complete
the steps between opening the door and closing it again. Make sure you do not
unintentionally activate an alarm. See the chapter 'Checking function [➙27]'.

Please observe the documentation for your fire control panel.
Not every fire control panel allows test mode to be activated automatically. For
some fire control panels, this function must be set explicitly. This setting may be
automatically deactivated under certain circumstances. So that test mode can
also be used from the manual call point with an FC20xx/FC72x fire control panel,
MC link communication, for example, must be active.
Enabling on FC20xx fire control panels
You will find more information for FC20xx fire control panels in 'Enabling detector
exchanger and tester communication' in document number 008838.
Enabling on FC72x fire control panels
1. In the main menu, select the 'Functions' menu item.
aThe 'Functions' window is open.
2. Select 'Maintenance' and confirm with <ok>.
aA list of all element categories on which a command of the 'Maintenance'
command group can be executed is indicated.
3. Select the 'Element category' 'Station'.
aThe 'Enter address' window is open.
4. Enter the number of the 'Station' on which you want to enable communication
with the detector exchanger and tester and confirm with <ok>.
aThe 'Select command' window is open.
5. Select the 'Enable MC link' command and confirm with <ok>.
aCommunication is now enabled.
Automatic deactivation of test mode, e.g. for FC20xx/FC72x:
● Once a specified time has elapsed, deactivation occurs after 60seconds.
● Deactivation occurs immediately when a customer text, for example, is
downloaded.
● Deactivation occurs immediately when the double CPU is changed over.
3.3.5 Diagnosis levels
The manual call point monitors its operation largely autonomously.
The following diagnosis levels are derived from the different control measurements:
● Normal, no fault is present
● Replacement necessary
● Fault present
When an error occurs which impairs the correct functionality of the device, a fault
message is reported to the control panel.
3.3.6 Behavior in degraded mode
Applicable for the FDnet/C-NET:
When the main processor of the fire control panel fails, the control panel works in
degraded mode operation. Depending on the control panel type, the fire control
panel can continue to perform the most important alarming and signaling functions
in degraded mode operation.
Structure and function
Function 3
A6V10374021_f_en_-- 17 | 38

Behavior of control panels that support degraded mode operation:
● Alarming is still ensured in degraded mode operation. However, in degraded
mode only collective alarming is possible. This means that in the event of an
alarm, it is possible to identify the FDnet/C-NET detector line but not the exact
location of the detector triggering the alarm.
Degraded mode operation on the FDnet/C-NET is not supported in the same way
by all control panels. The information in the 'List of compatibility' and in the
corresponding control panel documentation must be taken into account during
project planning.
