3.0 INSTALLATION:
Check that you have all the components you require to install the system. Follow the field wiring diagrams and installation notes in this manual. Installation of the fire alarm panel should be carried out by qualified personnel only. Never insert or remove boards or components in the fire panel when the power is on.

Mounting the panel The site chosen for the location of the panel should be clean, dry and not subjected to shock or vibration. The recommended temperature should be in the range 0C to +60C. The humidity should not exceed 95%.Open the door using the key provided. Screws or bolts of a minimum of 5mm diameter must be used to mount the enclosure in all four mounting positions.

Do not over-tighten screw terminals. Over-tightening the cables may damage the thread, resulting in reducing the terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal. To prevent the spread of fire, use proper patching materials to areas where system wiring passes through fire-rated walls or floors.

Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer and printed circuit board location.

7.0 TROUBLE SHOOTING:

LCD: 1. If there is no display in the LCD then the User has to check if the LCD Connecter cable is properly connected to the main board or not. 2. If the LCD display becomes brighter then change the direction of the connector.

KEYPAD: If the keypad in the Front panel is not working then check the connector. If the keypad is not working even after checking the connector, then check the Keypad IC PCF8574IC. Suppose keys in a single row are not working, and then change the Master IC.

FUSE: If there is no input power supply to the panel, then check the SMPS fuse. If the System ON LED is in off condition even after the system is ON, then check the fuse F1 and if it is the problem, replace it. If the System ON LED is glowing but the panel is not working means check the power transistor connection. LOW BATTERY: If the voltage of the battery in the panel comes down the low voltage, then the yellow LED in the panel will glow which indicates the Low Battery. Then charge the Battery in the panel.

28

TIME & DATE: If the time and date in the panel didnt work, check the RTC battery in PCB. If the time and date in the panel didnt change means check if the Timer IC is working or not. TONES: If the tones for Low battery, mains fail and Fire alarm doesnt work properly means check the transformer connections in the PCB.

8.0 MAINTENANCE:
The device owner shall ensure that a periodic Inspection and Servicing Maintenance Schedule will be followed. The device owner shall appoint a single, named responsible person to oversee all aspects related to the fire alarm system, including record keeping and false alarm management. In accordance with best practice, responsible person should maintain a logbook to record all events from or affecting the system. The logbook should be kept in a place accessible to authorized persons. All events should be properly recorded (events include false fire alarms, temporary disconnections and service visits). No responsibility can be accepted by the manufacturer or distributors of this range of fire panels for any misinterpretation of an instruction or guidance note.

9.0 WARNING AND CAUTION:

This warning contains vital information. The system has been designed to be as effective as possible. There are situations, however involving fire, smoke or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any alarm systems of any type may fail to operate as expected for many reasons. Some but not all of these reasons may be:

Inadequate installation:

A security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protection. Every installation should be evaluated by a professional person to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected. An evaluation by fire/police department is highly recommended if the service is available.

29

Power failure:

Control panel, smoke detector, heat detector and many other security devices require an adequate power supply for a proper operation. If the device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, maintained in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power supply, any interruption will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as detectors, security systems, etc. After a power interruption conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

Smoke detector:

Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of smoke equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overload electrical circuits, etc.

Warning device:

Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If the warning devices are located on a different level of the residence or premise. Then it is unlikely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened.

Inadequate testing:

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from an operating as intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, control panel, alarm indicating device and any other operational devices that are the part of the system.

Security and insurance:

Regardless of its capabilities and advantages, an alarm is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm is also not a substitute for building owners, renter or other occupants to act quickly to prevent or to minimize harmful effects of an emergency situation.
