Fire Alarm Computer 8000C / M
1 General
To equip buildings, facilities, commonly-frequented areas and working spaces with a fire warning
system can only be carried out economically and with reasonable propriety when correspondingly
well-founded safety concepts are developed and accordingly applied.
Wherever the highest requirements are made on a fire warning system, whether in small
commercial facilities or in industrial plants, the
Fire Alarm Computer 8000C / M
transforms safety
techniques and economy into practical reality. The modular design with different micro modules
and individual extension concepts allow the Fire Alarm Computer 8000C / M to be easily adapted
to special requirements. The Fire Alarm Computer 8000C / M represents the most modern
standard of fire warning technology. A reliable fire warning facility is guaranteed by the application
of "intelligent" fire detectors connected in an analog loop which is tolerant to short and open
circuits.
In this analog loop -
the esserbus
®
/
esserbus
®
-PLus
- up to 127 loop devices each capable of
being configured into 127 individual detector zones can be connected with an overall cable length
of up to two kilometres. The esserbus
®
is a two-wire line supplied and monitored at both ends in
ring topology. The Fire Alarm Computer 8000C / M automatically registers the wiring of the analog
loop and determines the logical addresses of the individual loop devices. A separate adjustment of
the addresses of the individual loop devices is unnecessary. Bei Systemen mit der
esserbus
®
-
PLus
Ringleitung ist zusätzlich der direkte Anschluss von adressierbaren, busfähigen
Signalgebern möglich. Für diese, direkt über den
esserbus
®
-PLus
angesteuerten Signalgeber, ist
keine weitere Spannungsversorgung erforderlich.
Subscribers in the esserbus
®
are automatic and non-automatic intelligent fire detectors, technical
alarm modules (TAL) and the specially developed esserbus
®
transponder input/output devices.
These esserbus
®
transponders are loop devices with freely programmable inputs and outputs, for
example for the activation and monitoring of external devices such as display panels, alarm
devices, door closers and other connected equipment.
Using the
essernet
®
safety network, 31 Fire Alarm Computer 8000C / M or other network
subscribers such as display and operating panels or alarm devices can be connected in a
homogenous network. Operation of the fire warning system, e.g. switching off a detector zone, is
possible from any fire alarm control panel or operating panel in the essernet
®
. Signals such as
alarm, trouble, disconnection or other events are transferred to all subscribers in the essernet
®
and
can be accessed from any desired position. Data exchange can, according to the transfer rate, be
carried out either with a twisted pair or a LAN cable. The essernet
®
communications protocol
guarantees reliable data exchange even if a short or open circuit occurs in the network.
These Operating Instructions are intended to aid you in the operation of the Fire Alarm Computer
8000C / M in addition to the description provided by the specialised installer and should be kept
together with the technical documentation of the fire alarm system. If you have any questions,
please consult your specialised installer.
The operation of an installed and operative fire alarm control panel may only be carried out by
authorised and trained persons under observance of the safety precautions and, if necessary, in
collaboration with other organisations (e.g. fire department).
