Note: Older version of Ancillary Control Module is found in Appendix “C”
The new Ancillary Control Module provides similar controls and indications for automatic
and manual operation of emergency lighting and Cooling / heating system but in different
way and with new added features. The Emergency Lighting design has been updated to
achieve the requirements of the Australian Standard AS2293.
A selectable control output delay is provided to avoid Air-Conditioning shutdown and
emergency lighting activation from a false alarm due to transient alarm conditions. This
delay time can be configured for 0 or 15 seconds.
A new test facility is added to activate the emergency lighting for a selected time depending
on a DIP switch setting, refer to Drawing F593. The emergency lighting test time may be
selected to 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes.
Emergency Lighting
In the ‘AUTO’ mode (LED is extinguished), the emergency lighting will be automatically
activated if a fire alarm signal is received from a Smoke/Heat Alarm, MCP or Sprinkler
alarm dependent upon the configuration selected.
The emergency lighting can be manually tested by pressing and releasing the
'AUTO/TEST' button. In the ‘TEST’ mode, the amber LED integrated to the switch body
will illuminate and the emergency lights will turn “ON”. Depending on the timer setting
(S1.3 & S1.4), the lights stay “ON” for the selected time. After the test is completed the
emergency lights will turn “OFF” and the amber LED will also extinguish. To restore the
auto condition while the emergency lighting test is running, press & hold the “AUTO/TEST”
button until the amber LED extinguishes (approximately 5 Seconds).
Air-conditioning
In the AUTO mode (LED is extinguished), the air-conditioning/heating is automatically shut
down if a fire alarm signal is received from a Smoke/Heat Alarm, MCP or Sprinkler alarm
dependent upon the configuration selected.
The air-conditioning/heating system may be manually switched ‘OFF’ by pressing and
releasing the 'AUTO/OFF' button. In the ‘OFF’ mode the amber LED integrated to the
switch body will illuminate and will remain in this condition until manually de-selected. To
restore to the auto condition, press and hold the “AUTO/OFF” button until the amber LED
extinguishes (approximately 5 Seconds).
