Fire Alarm System LimitationsWhile a fire alarm system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for fire insurance!An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke detec-tors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control panel with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.

The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors be located throughout a protected premise following the recommenda-tions of the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association Standard 72 (NFPA 72), manufacturer's recommendations, State and local codes, and the recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge to all installing dealers. These documents can be found at http://www.systemsensor.com/html/applicat.html.

A study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (an agency of the United States government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or protection against fire. A fire alarm system may not provide timely or adequate warning, or simply may not function, for a variety of reasons:

Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level or floor of a building. A second-floor detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.

Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:

• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, or chimneys may inhibit particle or smoke flow.

• Smoke particles may become “cold,” stratify, and not reach the ceiling or upper walls where detectors are located.

• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air outlets.

• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reaching the detector.

The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such density levels are not created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will not go into alarm.

Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limita-tions. Detectors that have photo-electronic sensing chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which have little visi-ble smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detec-tor may not provide adequate warning of a fire.

Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning of fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially in

bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions (caused by escap-ing gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rate-of-rise feature of each detector should be tested at least once per year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.

IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the connec-tion of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a developing fire may damage the alarm system, crippling its ability to report a fire.

Audible warning devices such as bells may not alert people if these devices are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors or are located on another floor of a building. Any warning device may fail to alert people with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol or medication. Please note that:

• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in people with conditions such as epilepsy.

• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a fire alarm signal, do not respond or comprehend the meaning of the signal. It is the property owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training exercise to make people aware of fire alarm signals and instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.

• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can cause tempo-rary or permanent hearing loss.

A fire alarm system will not operate without any electrical power. If AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries only for a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly main-tained and replaced regularly.

Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible with the control panel. It is essential to use only equipment listed for service with your control panel.

Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premise to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily dis-abled. For added protection against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission systems are recommended.

The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire fire alarm system in excellent work-ing order, ongoing maintenance is required per the manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the requirements of NFPA 72 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt or high air velocity require more frequent mainte-nance. A maintenance agreement should be arranged through the local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should be sched-uled monthly or as required by National and/or local fire codes and should be performed by authorized professional fire alarm installers only. Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.

Installation PrecautionsAdherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. The control unit and associated equipment may be dam-aged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this unit until this manual is read and understood.

CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test after Software Changes. To ensure proper system operation, this product must be tested in accor-dance with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or change in site-specific software. Reacceptance testing is required after any change, addition or deletion of system components, or after any mod-ification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.

All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also be tested and proper sys-tem operation verified.

This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0°C to 49°C (32°F to 120°F) and at a relative humidity 93% ± 2% RH (non-con-densing) at 32°C ± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F). However, the useful life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that this system and all peripherals be installed in an environment with a nominal room temperature of 15-27° C/60-80° F.

Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices this system may operate errati-cally or can be damaged when subjected to lightning-induced tran-sients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning transients and interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibil-ity. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Services if any problems are anticipated or encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or inserting cir-cuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.

Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling, filing, reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer, and printed circuit board location.

Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.

Though designed to last many years, system components can fail at any time. This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static-sup-pressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies removed from the unit.

Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and program-ming manuals. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment. FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper installation by authorized personnel.

2.3.4 Zone Mapping and Control by Event

The VESDA-HLI-GW can be configured for 10 general zones per VESDA device. Zones 0 to 999 are supported with Zone 0 being a general alarm zone that is active if any detectors are in the FIRE1 or FIRE2 state. The zones have the following characteristics:

• All Zones activated by the gateway remain active until there is a reset issued from the NFN. At that time, all the zones related to detectors being reset are cleared.

• A zone remains active as long as any detectors assigned to that zone are active.

• A zone goes into trouble state when any of its detectors become disabled or in trouble. The zone remains in a troubled state until all of its detectors are enabled and not in trouble.

• When the detector is disabled, zones can go off (if the point goes off), but cannot go on (if the point goes on). Note that enabling a point may also result in zones going active, if the point went active while it was disabled.

• Disabling of zones is not supported by the VESDA-HLI-GW. Zone disables are ignored. Points must be disabled individually.

• Force On/Off of zones is not supported.

• Read Status of zones is supported.

The Table 2.1, “Zone Setting/Alarm State Relationships” describes when zones are activated for each zone setting for each alarm state. An “X” indicates that the zone will be activated.

There are two labels, the 20-byte standard label and the 12-byte custom label. The Network Control Annunciator (NCA) displays them along with the events. There are 10 slots for Cooperative Control By Event (CCBE) per detector. Each slot can be set to one of the zones 1-999. In the Value column of the slot there is a selection for what type of event will cause the one to go active. The possible types of events are Alert, Action, Fire1, Fire2 and Any. Zones are cumulative in the given order. For example, an Action event triggers the Action and Alert zones. A Fire1 event triggers the Fire1, Action and Alert zones. A Fire 2 event triggers all zones.
