1 About this document
Purpose
These guidelines assume that commissioning has bee carried out in accordance
with the existing guidelines, i.e. that all functions have been tested, system data
has been saved and archived.
Scope
This instruction covers the maintenance work on the control unit type FC700A with
standard equipment. They are a basic part of the general maintenance guidelines
for fire detection systems and must be applied for all periodic maintenance work.
Protocol
The values to be measured (as specified in this procedure) are part of the technical
documentation in the system logbook.
Target groups
This product documentation and the work instructions are aimed at the following
persons, who have a particular function and have the corresponding training and
qualification.
Group of persons Activity Qualification
Commissioning personnel The configuration of the products, devices or
systems for specific customers at the place of
installation.
They check serviceability and officially clear the
product, device or system for use by the operator
/ customer. They are also responsible for trouble-
shooting.
They have had the professional training appropri-
ate to their function and to the commissioning of
the products, systems and devices and have
attended the technical training courses for com-
missioning personnel.

Work and operational safety
Before personnel begin work on the system they must have read and understood the related operating
instructions, in particular chapter 2 ”Safety regulations”.
NOTE
Systems or parts of systems should not be left switched off unnecessarily in
order that the system is not too long out of commission.
Never connect or disconnect electronic modules while the power supply is
switched on. Always switch off the mains and battery supply first.
Avoid electrostatic discharge. The FC700A hardware consists mainly of circuits
with CMOS technology. When working with the modules, use the ESD protec-
tion mat. Do not unnecessarily touch components or p.c.b. tracks.

2.2 Safety-relevant working instructions
Country-specific standards
The products are developed and produced in compliance with the relevant interna-
tional and European safety standards. Should additional country-specific, local
safety standards or regulations concerning project planning, assembly, installation,
operation and disposal of the product apply in the place of operation, then these
standards or regulations must also be taken into account in addition to the safety
regulations mentioned in the product documentation.
Electrical installations
DANGER
Work on electrical
installations
Any work on electrical installations may only be carried out by qualified electri-
cians or instructed persons working under the guidance and supervision of a
qualified electrician, in accordance with the electro technical regulations.
 Control units must be disconnected from the power supply during commissioning
or maintenance work.
 Terminals with an external voltage supply must be provided with a sign ”DAN-
GER - External voltage”.
 Mains leads to the control unit must be installed separately and provided with a
clearly marked fuse.
 Earthing must be carried out in compliance with local safety regulations.
 When work is carried out in explosion-hazardous areas, the appropriate safety
precautions must be taken.
Assembly, installation, commissioning and inspection work
 If any tools or accessories such as ladders are required, safe and suitable de-
vices must be used.
 Prevention of spurious tripping of the remote transmission must be assured.
 Always inform the fire brigade before testing the remote transmission.
 The activation of fire control installations for test purposes must not cause dam-
age to the system or parts thereof.
 Fire control installations must only be activated after the test has been com-
pleted and the system has been handed over to the customer.
 Third party systems or devices must only be activated in the presence of the re-
sponsible person.
 When work on management stations and system terminals are performed, the
safety regulations of the connected sub-systems must be observed. This espe-
cially applies when switching-off system components.
 In the case of extinguishing systems, always use the ”General installation in-
structions” as a guideline. This guideline is available on request.
