Important NotesThe FireClass digital addressable range of panels have been designed to be used with FireClass protocol devices only. The FireClass addressable panels are available in 1, 2 or 4 loops, supporting 250 addresses per loop, and are fully networkable (maximum 24 panels). Loop lengths are to be a maximum of 2km (Dependant on device types, quantities connected & cable type. Generally 1.5mm cable is best choice). A maximum of 7 repeaters can be driven from a FireClass addressable panel.It is recommended to use the FC490ST service tool to address your field devices however devices can be addressed and configured from the panel menu (this is explained later within this document).

It is recommended to use FireClass Express programming software to program the site cause and effect (this is available on completion of a FireClass training course. Please contact your FireClass supplier for further details) however text and zone information can be added through the panel menus. If you do not have FireClass Express programming software you will be limited to a common fire system where any activation of a detector or call point will operate all sounders and outputs.

ReferencesAll FireClass panel manuals are available on the CD supplied with the panel. All FireClass panel manuals and datasheets are available on our website www.fireclass.co.uk. All device wiring details are provided with the device.

Electrical Safety and Cable RequirementsWARNING: Please read this section completely before commencing installation.

The control panel must be installed by competent engineers familiar with the installation of fire detection systems. In addition, it is recommended to refer to the following information:

Current edition of the IEE wiring regulations. BS5839 Part 1 (2002) Fire detection and alarm systems in buildings or the installation standards for the relevant country. Any specific site requirements. FireClass field device installation instructions.

Cable Requirements

All cables should be specified and installed to meet the requirements of BS 5839 : Part 1 Subsection 26 or local equivalent standard. The recommendation is to join the screens from each section of cable within each loop device to form a continuous cable screen. All other cables must be of a sufficient size not to cause an excessive voltage drop (max. 1 volt for a 24 volt circuit) for the current required. A schematic diagram for a typical system layout is shown below.

04

Note: It is an I.E.E. Regulation that fire alarm cables be segregated from all other (non-fire alarm) cables.

Page 5: Quick-Start Setup Guide - FireClassfireclass.co.uk/en/emea/AuthorizedDocuments/Service...STEP 1 - Mounting the panel Note: The control panel is not weatherproof. Check that the location

Earthing

The addressable loop conductors must be isolated from earth. Any current leakage to earth is indicated as a fault.

Screening

If a cable with a conductive screen or metal sheath is used, this must not be connected to the addressable loop conductors. The recommendation is to join the screens from each section of cable within each loop device to form a continuous cable screen.

Cable Routing

Ensure cables are routed to minimise coupling effects. Try to avoid grouping power and signal cables together in the same conduit or trunking. Feed the mains supply into the housing through its own dedicated knockout.

Networking

Copper cabling should always be used for the network. For a quick summary the maximum distance between nodes is 3000 m using shielded twisted pair cable and 1200m using TYCO (Pyrotenax) standard MICC (xLx)

05

fire survival cable. To calculate maximum cable distances and baud rate settings please refer to the FireClass Networking Product Application and Design information FC-A-FCNET-A.

Remote Bus Cables (Repeater)

The remote bus is an RS485 differential wire pair communications bus. The cable used must therefore not cause loss or attenuation of the signal. Shielded twisted pair should be used. The maximum length of the cable is 1200m. The RBUS must be terminated with a 150Ω resistor at the FIM and a 120Ω resistor at the last device on the RBUS. Please note that the screen should be earthed at one end only.

Mains Supply

The mains supply final circuit(s) to all parts of the fire alarm system should be dedicated solely to the fire alarm system, and should serve no other systems or equipment.To facilitate local isolation during maintenance, suitable means should be provided for double pole isolation of the low voltage supply circuit that serves the power supply and control equipment.

Cable Types

It is impossible to provide specific details on the allowed cable types, and how they should be run, as these are subject to local practices and regulation. You should refer to these for details. For the addressable loops there are a wide range of cable types that can be used. This includes most cables which comply with BS 5839: Part 1. Also, unscreened and unshielded cable can be used, which may be encountered when upgrading existing installations. For the addressable loop here is a list of recommended cable types:

Page 6: Quick-Start Setup Guide - FireClassfireclass.co.uk/en/emea/AuthorizedDocuments/Service...STEP 1 - Mounting the panel Note: The control panel is not weatherproof. Check that the location

STEP 1 - Mounting the panelNote: The control panel is not weatherproof. Check that the location is indoors, dry and free from excessive dust. The control panel doors swing fully open, through more than 180 degrees.

1 From the door and door mounted PCBs, disconnect any cables (earth wire, ribbon cable and so on). Disconnect any cable clips or ties. Note the details for re-connection.

2 Unscrew the bottom door hinge pin. To do this you need to reach a long screwdriver into the channel formed by the edge of the door pressing.

3 Remove the door. First pull out the bottom of the door clear, then drop the door clear of the top hinge pin.

4 Disconnect the earth wires. Pull off the earth wire spade terminals from the chassis tags. Disconnect the wires from the housing earth connector (if applicable).

5 For FireClass 32 panels, disconnect the PSU to FIM lead.

6 To remove the chassis plates remove the lower two securing screws. Then slacken the upper screws, slide the plate upwards to clear the keyholes, and remove. Note that for the FireClass32 there are two plates – an inner and outer plate. The procedure is the same for both. First remove the outer plate to gain access to the inner plate. For the FireClass 32 make sure you are removing screws that screw through the chassis plate into the housing back wall.

7 While disassembled, ensure safe storage of the component parts. Take suitable measures to prevent electrostatic discharge damage (such as keeping handling to a minimum). Store the components safely in a dry environment, preferably in their original packaging.

8 Remove the knockouts from the backbox as necessary.

9 Mount the enclosure on the wall using the three mounting holes provided in the rear of the enclosure, make sure all debris is removed from the enclosure.

STEP 2 - Pre Commissioning ChecksYou will need to make temporary connections so that you can test the wiring for continuity, insulation etc.

1 Run the loop wiring around the building and wire up the detector bases according to the system plan/design. Run any other wiring required for ancillary modules. Clearly label the “+” and “-” conductors. Connect these to the corresponding terminals of the detector bases. Where screened cables have been used and no earth connections are provided at the device join the loop screen connections together using terminal block connector thus maintaining the integrity of the loop earth. At this stage do not wire in any isolator bases and modules or fit the detectors, this is because these items will be damaged by any high voltage insulation checks performed. Use terminal block connectors for any temporary connections to preserve continuity. Details of wiring individual devices are provided with the items themselves. For example, the wiring details for detector bases are included as part of the base packaging labelling. At this stage do not make the final connections at the control panel as you will be testing the wiring and need access to the free ends of wire.

2 At the control panel, feed cables through the appropriate knockouts. Use glands as appropriate. Leave generous tails of wire (approximately 600mm length).

3 Connect the loop wiring tails to a terminal block connector. Place this loosely in the housing (in order to avoid accidental connection etc. to panel before pre-checks).

4 If any conventional sounder circuits are run then check that the correct polarity is maintained, all devices have correct polarity and that the 2k7 end of line resistor has been fitted within the last device of the circuit.

5 Please make sure that the 10k end of line resistor is fitted across the supervised input terminals of the FIM board.

WARNING - Danger of damage to equipment. Before using a high-voltage insulation tester ensure that no devices liable to be damaged are fitted to the circuit. This includes isolator bases and ancillary modules.

6 Ensure your insulation checks will be at 500 V (set your meter accordingly). Make the usual insulation measurements and check the following: Positive to earth resistance is greater than 1M Ohm Negative to earth resistance is greater than 1M Ohm Positive to negative resistance is greater than 1M Ohm If any values are less than 1M Ohm, this is a failure as the control panel will not operate. You must investigate and remedy this. For values more than 1M Ohm, but less than 30M Ohm, you might still want to investigate this, and try to increase the resistance value to at least 30M Ohm.

7 Once all cabling resistance checks have passed then continue to wire the remaining modules and isolator bases onto the loops. If you have any interface modules make sure you have fitted the end of line resistors (refer to installation sheets which are provided with the field devices). Note : If you are addressing devices at the panel then you will need to add the interface modules later (this is covered later on).

8 Next terminate the mains cable into the panel‘s power supply making sure that the mains supply is isolated at the switched fused spur. For the FireClass 32 panels this will require the rear chassis to be fitted. Note: make sure that the mains earth is connected to the safety earth bus bar located in the rear of the enclosure. Fix the mains cable conductors using the cable tie near the mains input connector.

9 FireClass 32 panels - If you require any auxiliary 24V dc from the panel‘s power supply e.g. to power the printer, then you will need to connect now before fitting the top chassis plate.

10 Once the mains is wired in you can reassemble the panel.

STEP 3 - FIM Connections (Field Interface Module)

1 LOOP - Disconnect the loop connector from the terminal strip and wire the loop cables into it. Do not plug the connectors into the FIM board at this stage. Connect loop cable screen to the housing earth connector bar.

2 SOUNDER CCTS - If any conventional sounder circuits are to be connected to the FIM board then wire the circuits into the connectors and plug into the FIM board labelled SDR1 AND SDR2 making sure you have the correct polarity. If no conventional sounder circuits are required then fit the provided 2k7 end of line resistors across SDR1 AND SDR2 using the plug connectors.

3 SUPERVISED INPUT - The supervised input is currently unused for Fireclass however a 10k end of line resistor will need to be fitted across the panel terminals to prevent a fault showing on the panel.

4 REMOTE BUS - The remote bus can be used to connect ancillary input/output boards and repeater panels to the system. If you require to connect ancillary boards then please refer to the installation manual. The RBus ‘loops through‘ the control panel, so on the FIM board there are two pairs of RBus + and - terminals. There can be devices connected to either one or both pairs. For an unused pair of connectors, connect a 150 Ohm resistor across them. For a used pair, find the device at the end of the RBus circuit and, beyond this, connect a 120 Ohm resistor across the wire pair. All resistors are supplied.

5 PRINTER - The printer is not designed to fit in the panel cabinet, it normally comes mounted in a proprietary enclosure and mounted near to the panel. Connect the printer to COM1 of the FIM board by using the supplied data lead, a 24V supply is also required which can be derived from the panel. Follow installation instructions as supplied with the printer. The supplied lead is around 80cm in length. The maximum length of cable cannot exceed 15 metres, long distances will require a custom made lead.

Note: On the FireClass 32 model the FIM board needs to be removed in order to access the power supply terminals.

STEP 4 - Install the BatteriesWARNING The standby batteries can deliver high current presenting danger of injury and equipment damage while working on the panel. Take care not to accidentally short the battery terminals, especially when fitting the retaining bracket. Batteries are supplied charged.

Note - The panel or Repeater will NOT start up when the batteries are connected until the mains power is applied.

1 Remove the battery fuse from the power supply board (for the FireClass 32 panel this is located on the bottom chassis which can be accessed without removing the top chassis).

2 Connect the battery cables to the terminals marked BATT+ and BATT- on the power supply board. Connect the red cable to positive, the black cable to negative.

3 Place the batteries in the bottom of the control panel housing and connect the battery cables to the battery +ve to -ve terminals, if supplied fit the battery retaining clamp (for details refer to the instruction leaflet provided with the clamp).

4 Connect the inter-battery lead between the batteries (+ve to -ve terminals). Note that the control panel will not start to power up from the batteries without the mains being powered up.

5 Identify the temperature compensation lead. This is from the connector marked THERMISTOR J3. Tape the thermistor at the end of the lead at a convenient location on the side of a battery.

6 Re-fit the battery fuse and label the batteries with the current date.

STEP 5 - Commissioning The next stage is commissioning. This involves configuring and testing the system. A fully comprehensive test procedure cannot be provided. This is because the testing must be in accordance with local regulations and practice. Also, sites differ in terms of the system design, including the “cause and effect” logic built into the system configuration. This means the tests must be individually planned to suit the specific site requirements. Instead of a comprehensive test procedure, this chapter provides guidelines in the form of an example procedure. For details of the control panel operator functions, refer to the control panel user guide.
