systems of up to sixty circuits and is easily installed to
providehighlyeffectivesystemcontrolandmonitoring.
Its main advantages include:-
lSIMPLIFIED INSTALLATION WIRING, reduced time
and costs.
lENGLISH TEXT DISPLAY, shows all faults, alarms and
operating directions.
lEVENT MEMORY, related to date and time , stores
all events, alarms, opening and setting etc., in
reverse order of occurrence.
lINTERNAL ELECTRONIC SOUNDER, differing tones
avoid the need for separate audible devices.
lSIMPLE OPERATION, reduced commissioning,
training and servicing costs.
lNUMEROUS STANDARD FEATURES.
Facilities
The panel offers the following facilities as standard:-
INPUTS
Up to 60 individually controlled and indicated
detection circuits may be connected (10 per zone -
interfaced via remotely positioned Zone Expansion
Module or ZEM)
ENGLISH TEXT DISPLAY
Provides fully detailed information of system status,
detection circuit conditions, and in addition, all User
andEngineerpromptsnecessaryfortheoperationand
programming of the system, for example “Call Alarm
Company to reset system”. This prompt statement is
displayed to the User when he attends the panel
following an alarm or fault and an ‘Engineer Reset’
operation is required.
EVENT MEMORY
All alarm/fault conditions and panel status changes
(e.g. opening and setting, identification of shunted
circuits,etc.)arestoredwithdateandtimereference.
All relevant events can be recalled on the panel’s
display by the User, following an alarm or fault
condition. The alarm company engineer may recall
theentire storedlog tothe display,or alternativelyonto
aportable printer;andinaddition toallalarm andfault
events, will also be able to examine the times of
opening/setting, which user opened/set the alarm
system, and which detection circuits were isolated at
the time of each setting operation.
The memory cannot be cleared manually and will

Circuit Wiring and System
Expansion
Introduction
Reference will be made to Zones and Circuits when
explaining typical configurations. It is therefore
necessary to understand the difference between them
when used in this context. It will be helpful to refer to
Figure 1 (page 5) which shows the connection and use
of end-of-line and shunt resistors across normally closed
contacts.
Normally closed circuits
Each detection circuit may have up to ten normally
closed (N.C.) contacts, excluding tamper only type (0),
2 knock-night type (3) and shunt-lock circuit type (6).
Each contact must have a 4k7 shunt resistor fitted to
enable the CPA6 to continuously monitor the circuit
wiring.
An end-of-line (E.O.L.) resistor must always be fitted to
each circuit. Detection circuits may be wired in twin
cable, and make use of a remote resistor at the ‘End of
Line’.
Alternatively,iffourcorecableisused,theE.O.L.resistors
fitted at the termination block of the control panel may
be utilised for detection circuits wired directly to the
control panel.
Tamper Contacts
Tamper contacts are wired in series with the detection
circuit and no shunt resistor is fitted.
NOTE: The tamper link/contact of a detector device
must be wired in the opposite leg of the circuit to the
detector contact.
Detection Circuits
Detection circuit types, e.g. P.A. 24 hr. etc. connected
to each zone or Z.E.M loop are defined during
commissioning and can be any of the eight types listed
below:-
CIRCUIT TYPES
TYPE 0 - Tamper-only circuit
This definition is given to a detection circuit not
connected at the commissioning stage, (i.e.
circuits available for future expansion).
TYPE 1 - Night circuit
Where detection circuits are to be active only
when the system is in the test/set condition, this
definition is used.
TYPE 2 - 24-hour Circuit
This type is selected when continuously
monitored detectors are connected, (typically
fire doors, tube and wire framing etc). Circuit
operation will cause the fault audible tone,
when the system is open, and a main alarm
condition when the system is set.
TYPE 3 - Double-Knock night circuit
This option is programmed where two devices
have to be operated simultaneously when the
alarmsystemisset,beforeanalarmconditionis
generated.
NOTE: During setting, if either of the two devices
connected to this type of circuit is operated, then a
fault condition will occur, which will inhibit the system
from being set.
TYPE 4 - P.A. Circuit
This definition is given to Personal Attack buttons
and any other detectors which are required to
operatethe panel’s P.A.outputonly. Thistypeof
circuit is always active.
TYPE 5 - Exit/Entry Route Circuit (intermediate)
Detection circuits that may be operated during
exit and entry are defined thus. This type of
circuit is shunted during authorised entry to the
premises, but will cause a main alarm if
operated whilst the system is set.
TYPE 6 - Last exit contact/Shunt lock circuit
Either the final exit door contact, or shunt lock
fitted to the final exit door must be defined as
this circuit type.
TYPE 7 - Test circuit
Full details of the first operation of a detection
circuit defined thus, will be stored in the panels
event log, but will not cause any operation of
alarm fault outputs. A circuit on test and in fault
condition will not inhibit setting the alarm
system.
Thefollowingtypesofdetectioncircuitsmayadditionally
be programmed as User ‘shuntable’;-
a) Type 1 - Night circuit.
b) Type 2 - 24-hour circuit - may be made
shuntable only whilst the alarm
system is open.
c) Type 3 - 2 knock night circuit.
d) Type 5 - Exit/Entry (intermediate) circuit.

NOTE:Alldetectiondevicesconnectedtoanindividual
circuit must be of the same type.
Detection Zones and Zone Expansion
(The CPA6 has six zones. Each zone may have one
circuit only, or can, by the addition of external Zone
Expansion Modules, (Z.E.M.’s) be expanded in
increments of two circuits, up to a maximum of ten (see
figure 1).
Z.E.M’s are housed in small tamper-protected
metal/plastic enclosure and would normally replace a
junction box in the location of the detectors.
The enclosure tamper switch is connected into loop ‘A’
of a Z.E.M. internally.
Two different types of detection circuits may be
connected to a single Z.E.M and each identified during
the commissioning procedure.
Z.E.M’s are interconnected with two wires, the output of
one Z.E.M.connectingtotheinputofthenext. Uptofive
Z.E.M.’s can be connected in this manner into a single
CPA6 zone input.
Circuitidentificationisachievedbynotingthepositionof
each Z.E.M. in its associated group e.g. Zone 4 circuit 6
refers to the circuit connected to the ‘B’ loop of the third
Z.E.M. on the input to Zone 4 of the panel.
NOTE: Z.E.M. Interconnection is polarity conscious.
When a Zone has only a single circuit wired to it, the
Z.E.M. -ve input connection on the CPA6 PCB is ignored
and the +ve & -ve terminals are used for the detection
circuit,withtheE.O.L. terminalsprovidingthe endofline
resistor.
DetectioncircuitwiringtoZ.E.M.’s isviaterminals‘LoopA’
and ‘Loop B’ and the E.O.L. resistors must be remote
from the Z.E.M fitted.

BELL RELAY
Thisoutput isa voltage-freenormally open relay
contact which closes an alarm, following any
programmed bell delay. The contact will
remain closed until either the alarm system is
reset, or a pre-set bell duration time expires.
NOTE: When the panel supply is switched via the relay
contacts to drive an external bell, the bell must be of a
‘suppressed’ type.
AUX SUPPLY
This output is individually fused (FS1) and
provides 13.6 volts dc @ 300mA (max) for
external equipment.
SPEAKER
This output drives the integral sounder speaker,
but may also be used to drive an additional
extension speaker (8 Ohm) where required.

Output Table
Table 1 shows the Outputs and Audibles that are
operated following an activation of one of the circuit
types, with the alarm system in its various states.
Latching and Non-latching conditions are denoted by
‘L’ and ‘NL’ in brackets.
Note:
1 Shuntable circuits (i.e. Those which an authorised
user can isolate prior to setting the alarm system)
can be tested whether isolated or not.
2 Thetable assumesthatno belldelayis selected: If
bell delay is selected, operation of the bell relay
and of the internal main alarm audible, is delayed
by the period set.
3 Following a tamper or 24 hour alarm in ‘SET’, on
‘Opening’ the tamper/fault output will operate
together with the internal local audible.
4 The main alarm audible will sound if P.A. Circuits
have been programmed to sound during the
open (’DAY’ condition).

Key Functions
Engineer Operation
The alarm engineer can only gain access to the control
panel’s programme by entering a four digit ‘Engineer
Code’.
Following entry, the control panel tamper protection is
disabled enabling free access to the enclosure.
NOTE: The Engineer Code is NOT recognised when the
alarm system has been set by an authorised User.
To change system parameters following
commissioning:-
- Enter Engineer Code
- Open control panel lid
- Operate Write Protect switch SW1 to ‘OFF’
position
- Answer ‘YES’ and ‘NO’ as appropriate to
automatically displayed statements to
advance the program to the first step
where a change of parameter is to be
made
- Change parameter(s) as required
- Move ‘Write Protect’ (SW1) to ‘ON’ position
- Close panel lid and secure.
- Enter Engineer Code to return control
panel to the open status.
Loading Defaults
Power down panel mains and battery.
Operate write protect switch SW1 to OFF position.
Power up panel battery and mains.
Enter 1234. The system is now back to Factory Default
Parameters.
Bell Test/Walk Test
Please refer to page 15
Fuses
FUSE 1 Is rated at 2A and is of the Quick Blow type.
Its function is to protect the + 12v auxiliary
output from overloads.
Failure of FS1 will result in removal of the + 12v
auxiliary output.
FUSE 2 Is rated at 1A and is of the Anti-Surge type.
Its function is to protect the supply to the
CPA6 circuitry from overloads.
Failure of FS2 will result in the CPA6 display
blanking and the keypad tone failing to
operate. All detection circuits will cease to
function.
FUSE 3 Is rated at 500mA and is of the Quick Blow
type. Its function is to protect the supply to
Z.E.M's and detection circuits from overloads.
Failure of FS3 is always identified by the event
“OPEN TAMPER” on all detection circuits, and
failure to identify Z.E.M’s.
FUSE 4 Is rated at 2A and is of the Quick Blow type.
Its function is to protect the supply to the
internal sounder from overloads, which is
defined as a sounder impedance of less
than 4 Ohms. Failure of FS4 will result in a
drop in audible level of the internal sounder.
SCAN FAULT
“SCAN FAULT” will be logged if the CPA6 cannot sensibly
ascertain the status of any detection circuit for a period
of three scan cycles.
Should a scan fault be encountered, the detection
circuits and Z.E.M interconnection wiring should be
tested to ensure that the earth leakage resistance is
greater than ½ MΩfor detection circuits and 2 MΩfor
Z.E.M wiring. Other potential sources of scan fault can
be avoided by ensuring that Z.E.M interconnection and
detection circuit cables are not laid adjacent to A.C. or
R.F. cabling, or are not contained within common
multicore cable together with power for bells or
sounders.
