4100U-S1 Fire Panel Operator’s Guide
Fire detectors in the building are grouped into zones (searchable areas).
Zones can be Isolated by pressing the zone’s isolate pushbutton on the panel – this prevents an
alarm from activating the panel outputs.
When a non-isolated detector detects an alarm, the fire panel rings the bell, calls the fire brigade,
activates the Warning or Evacuation System and any other programmed functions.
The Fire Panel display consists of two sections – the Operator Interface (upper section) and the
Zone Isolate pushbutton switches & indicators (lower section).
The Operator Interface indicates common Alarm, Fault & Isolation Status on LEDs, and point
(detector) status on the LCD.
When an Alarm, Fault or Isolation occurs, the buzzer will operate until the corresponding
acknowledge (Ack) key is pressed.
The panel is reset by pressing SYSTEM RESET. If the alarm won’t reset the point may still be
activated. Press FIRE ALARM ACK when the point alarm is displayed, then press DISABLE, ENTER.
Press FAULT ACK (to acknowledge the fault caused by disabling a point), then press SYSTEM RESET
again. The disabled detector must be re-enabled when the condition is cleared.
Silence the Bell: Press the EXT BELL ISOLATE key.
Isolate signals to Evacuation System: Press the
WARN SYS ISOLATE key. This will turn off warning
sounders powered by the Fire Panel.
Isolate a Zone: Press the appropriate Zone Isolate
pushbutton and the Zone Isolated LED will turn on.
Acknowledge an Isolation: Press the ISOLATE ACK
key.
Acknowledge an Alarm: Press the FIRE ALARM ACK
key.
Acknowledge a Fault: Press the FAULT ACK key. Zone Isolate

Some of the operation of the 4100U-S1, as described in this manual, is dependent on
custom configuration as performed by the field engineer. If the configuration is not as per
the recommended template, then operation may differ and compliance to AS4428.0 may
be invalid.
The 4100U-S1 has a facility to allow levels of passcode protection. The operation of all the
standard functions as described in this manual is to be programmed to not require entry of
a passcode.
ZONE ISOLATIONS - The zone isolate status is not stored in non-volatile memory, so if the panel
is powered down and back up, or if the CPU is reset, all zones will be de-isolated.

The Simplex 4100U-S1 Fire Alarm Control Panel (FIP) has three general functions.
• It monitors fire alarm initiating points (smoke detectors, heat detectors etc.).
• It activates fire alarm notification devices (bells, strobes, brigade call) when an initiating
point activates.
• It monitors and controls ancillary building equipment (fan controls, relays, etc).
Note: The term point is used extensively throughout this manual. It is a generic
term used to refer to an individual component of the system, such as a single
smoke detector, a single break-glass manual call point, etc.)
The operator interface, shown in Figure 1-2, allows a system operator to control and monitor
the site-specific components connected to the 4100U-S1 FIP.

The control keys and indicator LEDs are located on the far left of the Operator Interface.
A control key is pressed to perform the labelled function, and the associated LED turns on to
show the function is active. Pressing the key again de-selects the function and turns off the
LED.
CAUTION: OPERATION OF THESE KEYS MAY CAUSE ALARM SIGNALS TO

These keys can be pressed at any time. The key feedback (beep on buzzer) and the LED
turning on/off may be the only acknowledgment of the action.
Control Keys & Indicators
Overview
Control Keys &
Indicator Functions
Figure 1-3. Control Keys &
LEDs
• Zone Alarm - The red indicator is on when
there is an active (non-isolated) alarm in any
zone.
• Fault Test On – This indicator lights when
zone fault tests have been enabled by pressing
the ALARM/FAULT TEST key. When this
indicator is on, and a zone isolate key is
pressed, a fault test is performed on that zone.
• Alarm/Fault Test –This key cycles between
Alarm Test, Fault Test, and Normal for zone
test modes. The indicator lights when zone
alarm tests are enabled, the Fault Test On
indicator lights when fault tests are enabled,
and both these indicators are off when
alarm/fault tests are not enabled.
When this indicator is on, and a zone isolate
key is pressed, an alarm test is performed on
that zone. Any programmed outputs will
operate (including the Brigade signal). If the
zone was already isolated then the test will not
de-isolate it, i.e. the programmed outputs will
not operate.
• A/C Auto/Reset – The indicator lights when
the air conditioning system has been
automatically controlled by the 4100U.
Pressing the key will reset the air conditioning
system to normal operation.
• ACF Isolate – When this key is active, it
prevents ancillary controls: door holders,
security trips etc. from operating.
• Bell Isolate - When this key is active, it
prevents the fire alarm bell from operating.
• Warn Sys Isolate - When this key is active, it
prevents the Warning System from operating.

The 4100U-S1 operator interface panel shows the following under normal conditions.
• Green AC Power LED is ON – indicating the panel is receiving AC Power.
• All other LEDs off.
• Alphanumeric display reports that the system is normal and shows the current time
and date, as shown below.
Note: If the appearance of the operator interface is not as shown
above, refer to the information in Chapters 2 and 3 for instructions
on managing the alarm, fault, or isolate condition.

An alarm condition occurs when an actuating device (such as a manual call point, smoke
detector, etc.) activates. The 4100U-S1 indicates the presence of the alarm condition through
messages it displays on the alphanumeric display, by illuminating the ALARM indicator
LEDs, and by activating the building’s EWS and external bell.
This chapter describes using the Operator Interface Panel keys to investigate and manage
alarm conditions.

Managing Alarm Conditions
Introduction
In this Chapter

2-2
When the first alarm condition is detected by the 4100U-S1, the panel does the following to
indicate the presence of the alarm.
• Red Fire Alarm and common Zone Alarm LED indicators flash
• Red Zone Alarm LED flashes on the display module showing the affected zone.
• Sounder (buzzer) pulses
• Emergency Warning System (EWS) and External bell activate
• Alphanumeric display on the operator interface shows the location and type (smoke, call
point, etc.) of the point in the alarm condition. An example is shown in Figure 2-1.
• Any programmed outputs, including the Brigade connection, operate.
Figure 2-1. Alphanumeric Display Showing Typical Alarm
The first step in managing an alarm condition is to acknowledge the alarm. Acknowledging
an alarm does two important things:
• It records the time and date at which you observed the presence of the alarm and stores
that information in the system’s historical log.
• If multiple alarms are present, the system displays specific data for the next alarm when
you press the <FIRE ALARM ACK> key.
