Normal operation
The fire detection installation is supplied with mains voltage.
Parameter set
Defined detector behavior, e.g. in terms of sensitivity, resistance to deceptive phenomena, response time.
Detectors can be operated with different parameter sets.
Physical channel
Depiction of a device's physical function in the hardware tree. The physical channel is always the bottom
level in the hardware tree.
PMI
The arrangement of operating and display elements on a fire control panel or on a fire terminal. Includes the
LEDs, buttons, the display, and the operation options such as the key switch, fire brigade control and
display (FBA), and the EVAC NL Person Machine Interface.
Pre-configuration
A sub-configuration of the hardware tree, detection tree, and control tree created before commissioning the
fire detection installation.
Radio gateway
Interface converter for converting from detector line protocol to radio.
Router station
Participant in the SAFEDLINK sub-net for the connection between the SAFEDLINK sub-net and the
Ethernet sub-net (FCnet/C-WEB/LAN) via the Ethernet switch (modular) FN2012-A1.
SAFEDLINK
Physical network of an FS20 / FS720 fire detection system with the network module (SAFEDLINK) and the
network cable.
SAFEDLINK station
Participants in the SAFEDLINK sub-net with local connection for the PC.
Section
Level in detection tree of the fire detection system. The section is assigned to the area. It is used for
combining zones.
Site
Depiction of fire detection installation: The top level in the figure showing the installed system. Combines
hardware tree, detection tree, and control tree.
Soft keys
Softkeys are buttons which you can use to carry out functions and which are displayed in the three fields of
the softkey line on the display. These three black fields contain the names of the functions in white font. The
functions of the softkeys change dynamically depending on the situation and the contents of the display.
Always the most important functions are assigned to the softkeys 1 and 2.
Standalone station
Standalone station with local connection for the PC.
