3.1 Before you begin
WARNING
WHEN INSTALLING THE BIWIRE FLEXI FIRE SYSTEM
CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT THE
INSTALLATION LOCATION DOES NOT SUBJECT THE
PANEL TO ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS IN EXCESS OF
THE LIMITS OUTLINED IN THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
CONTAINED WITHIN THIS GUIDE.
CAUTION
ENSURE ANTI-STATIC PRECAUTIONS ARE TAKEN WHEN
HANDLING ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM.
DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN TIGHTENING THE

NOTE
WHEN INSTALLED THIS EQUIPMENT IS SUBJECT TO
THE EMC DIRECTIVE 2004/108/EC. TO MAINTAIN EMC
COMPLIANCE THE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM MUST BE
INSTALLED AS INSTRUCTED. THE INSTALLER WILL BE
RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY EMC PROBLEMS THAT MAY

3.2 Cabling Routing & Device Installation
Route the fire rated cabling (for example FP200) between
device locations in accordance with the zone map (and any
other external equipment) and back to the panel location as
indicated in the system design drawings. Each cable should be
clearly labelled with their function, i.e. Zone 1 etc.
The bases of all fire devices should be fixed (refer to the
installation guide supplied with each device) in the locations
specified in the system design drawings.
The cabling to devices should be screwed into the terminals of
the base or device (refer to the installation guide supplied with
each device). The correct polarity should be observed along the
cable routing.
The correct EOLM must be fitted at the end of each zone in
(EOLM-3 for BiWire, EOLM-1 for Conventional).
The 6K8 resistor must be fitted at the end of each
conventional sounder circuit.
