Summary

Introduction and General Information

Limitations of Fire Alarm Systems

An automatic fire alarm system provides early warning but cannot guarantee protection against property or life loss.

General Installation Notes

Covers essential installation practices, including safety warnings, environmental requirements, and wiring checks.

Programming the Fire Alarm Panel

Programming Introduction

Introduces the manual's scope, covering Axis Intelligent Fire Alarm Control Panel configuration and programming.

Access Levels

Details the four user access levels that restrict panel operations and programming functions.

Memory Lock

Explains the memory lock feature (Jumper J1) to protect programmed entries from inadvertent changes.

Starting Point

Guides users on powering up the panel, accessing the programming menu, and entering the default password.

Program Menu Screens

Details the three main program menu screens and the sub-menus available within each for system configuration.

Navigating Through Menus

Explains how to navigate between menu options using keypad buttons and return to previous screens or normal operation.

Changing Text Descriptions

Describes how to add or change user-defined text descriptions for devices, zones, and outputs for clearer status indication.

Numeric Data Entry

Details the method for entering numerical data using the keypad, including character selection for text entry.

Recommended Programming Procedure

Outlines a step-by-step recommended procedure for programming the system, including setup, passwords, and device configuration.

Loops/SLC Configuration

Covers the selection and programming of loops/SLCs, including viewing, editing, and auto-learning devices.

Loop View/Edit

Details how to view and edit device parameters such as address, state, type, value, zone, and action.

Sensitivity Parameter

Explains device sensitivity settings, including modes, alarm thresholds, and pre-alarm levels.

Output Group Assignments

Details Output Group assignments for NAC and relay modules, controlling output behavior during system events.

Additional Information

Explains how to view additional information for intelligent smoke detectors, including extended memory locations.

Detector Testing

Guides users on performing individual detector tests to verify chamber response and detector LED illumination.

Loop Auto Learn

Describes the automatic learning process for devices on an SLC loop, including normal procedure and handling missing or added devices.

Loop Meter

Explains how to use the loop meter to display loop output/input voltages, loading, and diagnostic information.

Loop History

Details how to view loop device history, including last activation, test, disable, enable, and creation dates.

Zone Configuration

Covers zone configuration, listing zones in use and allowing modification of zone location text descriptions.

Exiting Programming Mode

Provides instructions on how to exit programming mode and return the panel to normal operation safely.

View System Status

Explains the view area for monitoring system status and programming changes without exiting the programming mode.

Disable Functions

Describes how to disable zones, inputs, outputs, and groups within the programming area.

Enable Functions

Covers re-enabling previously disabled zones, inputs, outputs, and groups.

Password Management

Details how to manage user Level-2 and Level-3 passwords, including the factory default Level-3 password.

Time and Date Settings

Explains how to change the panel's current time and date settings.

PC Configuration

Describes PC configuration for connecting to the PC-NeT configuration tool for data programming.

Panel Setup Options

Covers the configuration of generic panel operating parameters and system options.

Trace Logging Mode

Determines the type and level of information stored in the system's event log (Standard, Standard+, Diagnostic).

Detector Blinking Configuration

Configures whether intelligent detector LEDs blink when polled by the panel (Individual, All, None).

Ground Monitoring

Notes that ground monitoring is a UL 864 requirement and cannot be changed via the panel.

DACT Configuration

Allows selection of DACT type (None, External, Contact-ID, SIA).

DACT AC Trouble Delay

Programs a delay for system trouble contact on AC failure for external DACT usage.

Resound Upon Settings

Configures the resound behavior of NAC circuits, such as 'Resound on New Device in Alarm'.

CONFIG Data Management

Shows loop protocol, checksum, and options to erase configuration data or reset to factory settings.

Panel Circuit Status

Displays internal panel circuits, voltages, currents, and allows modification of default configuration settings.

Output Groups

Defines schedules of actions for outputs based on input events, enabling simple or complex 'cause and effect' programming.

Default Output Settings

Lists the default output group assignments for NAC and relay output devices upon initial installation.

Cause Definition for Outputs

Determines the input event type (Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble, etc.) that triggers an output response for a zone.

Output Style Configuration

Programs how an output turns on in response to an event (e.g., immediately, delayed, pulsed) using specific styles.

Output Delay Setting

Sets the time delay from input qualification to output activation, in intervals of 1 second up to 9999 seconds.

Output Mode Setting

Defines the output operation mode upon first activation, such as ON or PULSE.

Output Wait Setting

Sets the time from output activation to the next operational condition, allowing phased output changes.

Copying Output Settings

Allows copying programmed output group settings from one zone to multiple other zones for efficiency.

Positive Alarm Sequence Delays

Supports an investigation delay before outputs turn on, configurable via PC-NeT for building supervisor response.

Appendices

Forgotten Level 3 Password

Provides steps to obtain a temporary password for regaining access to programming functions if the Level 3 password is lost.
