Shunt Master Box:
A municipal fire department connection box, mounted external to the panel, that uses
electrical energy from the municipal fire alarm system to energize its (the master box’s) electromagnetic tripping
mechanism.
Signal Module:
A panel-Mounted Module which supervises two notification appliance (signal) circuits.
Silence lnhibif Option:
A field-programmed option which, when entered, prevents all alarm-notification appliances
from being silenced, and the system from being reset, until the delay’s duration expires.
Supervision:
The continuous electrical checking of fire alarm circuits and components for troubles (opens and,
in some cases, shorts).
l
For example, 4002 signal circuits are supervised for both opens and shorts, while 4002 zone circuits are
supervised for opens only (a zone circuit short causes an alarm condition).
Zone Module:
A panel-mounted Module containing the circuitry needed to supervise either four or eight zone
circuits for both trouble and alarm conditions.
APPENDIX A
ESP Programming Option
NOrMally
the 4002 is used as a general alarm system. Activation of any monitor point will energize all signal
circuits, relays (to include the city relay), and the piezo. A number of DIP switch selectable functions may also
be used to enhance the general alarm operation.
When more sophisticated project specific operations are required, Expanded Simplex Programming (ESP) Option
must be installed. This option allows the operation of the system to be tailored to meet your specific requirements
and perform up to 23 additional special operations. These special operations are defined by the user and may
be modified at any time by qualified SIMPLEX personnel. ESP programs are defined for each desired operation,
then programmed at the local SIMPLEX branch office. SIMPLEX personnel must install the ESP option, then test
each ESP programmed operation.
Once programmed, the system will handle its ESP controlled inputs and outputs differently, while the rest of the
system will operate general alarm. SIMPLEX personnel will demonstrate the operation and provide detailed
instructions on each ESP programmed function. These tailored instructions are not included in any reference
manual and must be used as required.
a. Selective Signal Circuit Operation
One or more selected monitor point inputs will act upon one or more signal output circuits,
Selective signal operations may be used for various applications.
Three specific selective signal operations are as follows:
1. Selective signals by floor -
Evacuation signals sound on the floor of the alarm initiation; other signals
may sound on other floors.
2. Selective signals by zone
- Evacuation signals sound in the zone or area of the alarm initiation; other
signals may sound on other areas.
3. Floor above and floor below
- Evacuation signals sound on the floor of the alarm initiation, and on the
floor above and the floor below the floor of the alarm initiation; other signals may sound on other floors.
b. Selective Relay Control Operation
One or more selected monitor point inputs will act upon one or more general purpose output relay control
circuits.
c. Selective Fan/Damper Control Relay Operation
One or more selected monitor point inputs will act upon one or more relay circuits which control fan/damper
circuits.
