What to do if the Fire Alarm Panel shows an Alarm (Red LED)

Write down the LCD reading and which LEDs are lit (either in the log book, or on a piece of paper for transferring to the log book later) Follow the building procedures for fire alarm activation. When the building has been evacuated, the sounders can be silenced by turning the key to the on position and pressing the Start/Stop Sounder button, then pressing the Silence Tone button. (Note that the sounders may take up to 8 seconds to stop) If there is no sign of fire, investigate the area that reported the fire CAREFULLY. Check for a detector or a call point with its RED LED lit. If a detector caused the alarm, look for any innocent phenomena that could have activated it (Steam, cooking food, exhaust smoke, excessive dust etc can all activate a smoke detector.). If anything is found, try to clear the room by opening a window. If a fire is discovered, either tackle it with fire extinguishers if suitably trained, or call the fire brigade. To reset the panel press the reset button. If the panel goes back into alarm, silence the sounders and call the engineer.

What to do if the Fire Alarm Panel shows a Fault (Yellow LED)

Write down the LCD reading and which LEDs are lit (either in the log book, or on a piece of paper for transferring to the log book later) If the supply fault LED is lit, check if there is a power cut to the building. Check that the mains supply to the fire alarm has not been turned off. If the Prealarm LED is on, this could be either a detector that needs servicing, or the start of a fire (or other phenomena that can activate the detector). Investigate the indicated location and take appropriate action. All other fault indications will need the service engineers attention. Call the engineer as soon as possible. Note that when the alarm is in a fault condition, the majority of the system will still function correctly. Extra vigilance should be paid in the area with the fault. The alarm may not be operational in this area. The panel`s internal buzzer can be silenced by turning the key to the on position and pressing the Silence Tone button. If the fault comes and goes, the panel will buzz every time the fault happens. If this is not acceptable you may be able to disable the zone that has the fault. (see page 11)

1. FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL SAFETY ISSUES

There is no need to open this fire alarm during normal operation. Any work carried out on this system must be performed by a competent person who is familiar with this type of system. This equipment will operate safely provided it has been installed correctly in compliance with the Installation Manual. It is recommended that the system is serviced frequently. It is customary to arrange a regular maintenance contract with a competent organisation. (Ask the installation company for recommendations). The system needs a thorough maintenance check annually at the very minimum. If any part of this Fire Alarm Control Panel becomes damaged, contact the company responsible for system maintenance to arrange repair / replacement. CE European Union Directives Conformance Statement This product has been manufactured in conformance with the requirements of all applicable EU Council Directives. The Declaration of Conformance for this product is located at the following Address: GLT Exports Ltd, 72-78 Morfa Road, Hafod, Swansea, SA1 2EN, United Kingdom

2. THE PURPOSE OF A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

A Fire Alarm System is used to provide an early warning of a fire, so that the property can be evacuated and the fire extinguished if it can be safely tackled, or the local fire brigade called, according to the company evacuation procedure. Alarms can come from Smoke or Heat Detectors, or manually by a person operating a Manual Call Point. Splits the building into Zones, each covering a different area of the building. This will indicate which area of the system is giving the alarm (or fault). During an alarm, the panel will start its sounders, and indicate which zone has the fire. It will also activate its auxiliary relay. Fault Monitoring The panel checks all circuits for line integrity. If a part of the system has a problem, which may affect its operation, a fault warning must be given by the fire alarm panel (LED & buzzer indication). The fault relay will also activate. Disablements An engineer may be required to work on part of a system, while the system is still active (eg extending a detection zone). During such circumstances, it would be advisable to disable that zone, so that it will not give false alarms. Similarly you may wish to disable a zone that has a fault that has not been fixed, or a zone covering an area with a temporary unusual environment, such as an area which is dusty because of construction work etc. Power Supply Equipment- General Description. The NPAD FACP has an integral linear power supply capable of supplying 1.5 amps in total. It contains a current limited output for charging sealed lead acid batteries (7 Ah maximum). The PSE is monitored for main supply failure, the battery not taking a charge and low battery voltage. If the battery voltage drops below approximately 20VDC (a fault condition), the battery charging current will be turned off , thus stopping charging. This PSE is only capable of supplying power to the CIE, and is not designed for any other use.

3. USER RESPONSIBILITIES & MAINTAINENCE OF THE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM, INCLUDING THE FACP & ITS INTEGRAL PSE
According to the British Standard Code for Fire Detection and Alarm Systems for Commercial Buildings (BS5839: Pt 1: 2002), the owner or person having control of the premises should appoint a responsible person to oversee the effective operation of the Fire Alarm System (Clause 47.1). Below is a summary of the main functions the Responsible Person is expected to carry out. This summary is not intended to replace Section seven (User responsibilities) of BS5839: Pt 1: 2002 (available from BSI, or your local library). It is meant to give a brief outline of user responsibilities for the safe upkeep of the Fire Alarm System. The number in brackets shows the relevant BS5839: Pt 1: 2002 clauses. The responsible person must:Have sufficient authority to carry out the duties associated with being the responsible person (47.2.a) Check the system at least once every 24 hours to ensure there are no faults present (47.2.b) Ensure there are arrangements for testing and maintaining the system (47.2.c) Ensure the log book is up to date, and available for inspection (47.2.d) Instruct all relevant occupants on the basic operation of the system, including start evacuation, silence alarms, silence faults and system reset (47.2.e) 6. Take appropriate action to limit the rate of false alarms (47.2.f) 7. Ensure that all detectors and manual call points remain unobstructed at all times (47.2.g) 8. Liase with maintenance personnel to ensure that cleaning, maintenance or building work does not interfere with the functioning and reliability of the fire alarm system (47.2.h). 9. Ensure any changes to the system are recorded with updated drawings, operating instructions etc (47.2.i) 10. Ensure that there are spare parts (especially Call point elements) held on site (47.2.j.1&2) 11. In the event of a prealarm, determine the cause & take appropriate action (predetermined fire routine if the cause is the start of a fire, arrange maintenance if the cause is a contaminated detector head) (47.3) With the Premier AD Fire Alarm Panel, we recommend the following tests are carried out: Daily Inspection Check that the green Power LED is lit. If there are any yellow fault LEDs lit, or the green Power LED is not lit, report the fault(s) to the designated site maintenance engineer. Weekly Test (you may wish to temporarily disconnect the Aux relay during the following Tests) Set off a manual call point or sensor to test the Fire Alarm panel responds and all the sounders activate. Do not test the same device each week. Test a different zone each week using a different call point or detector so that eventually, all the devices will be tested. Reset the System by pressing 1,2,3 (Stop sounders, Silence fault tone, Reset). Turn key to controls enabled. Press the LED Test button. Check that all LEDs light, and the buzzer sounds Check that no call points or fire detectors are obstructed in any way. (eg New furniture or decorations) Quarterly Test (to be carried out by authorised service personnel only) Check that any servicing or repairs required by all previous logbook entries has been undertaken. Visual inspection of the batteries and connections. Check the alarm sounders work on battery only. Activate a device from each zone to test the fire alarm. (As per weekly test). Annual Test (to be carried out by authorised service personnel only) Check every detector, call point, sounder and all auxiliary equipment for correct operation. Check Transformer output Voltage (32 VAC), Charger Voltage (28.4V off load, adjusted with VR1) & Battery Voltage (25-27V) Every Five Years (to be carried out by authorised service personnel only) Carry out a complete wiring check in accordance with the testing and inspection requirements of the relevant National wiring regulations (in the UK this is the IEE Wiring Regulations). The Batteries should be replaced because SLA batteries have a working life of 5 years. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

4. PANEL INDICATIONS & CONTROLS

4.1 INDICATIONS The Premier AD has been designed to be as straight forward as possible. To help achieve this it has been designed so that its LEDs are the primary display. Every possible fault has its own unique LED. Each LED is used to represent only one condition. This helps avoid the confusion caused when a single LED is used for 2 or more conditions. The LCD is used during setup, and to give detailed information about zone faults.

IN THE EVENT OF AN ALARM

After the site has been deemed safe for return, to return the panel to normal: 1. Turn keyswitch to Controls Enabled position. 2. Press Stop/Start = turn off external sounders 3. Press Silence = turn off the panels buzzer 4. Record the LCD details in the Fire Alarm Log Book 5. Press Reset = return panel to normal condition.

4.2 CONTROLS The controls on the Premier AD are grouped together to try to be as user friendly as possible. The Silence, Reset & Start/Stop Sounder buttons are the main control buttons. Silence = turn off the panels buzzer Stop/Start = turn off external sounders Reset = return panel to normal condition. To silence a panel after an alarm, press Stop/Start, followed by silence. Record the LCD details in the log book, then press Reset. The previous & Next buttons by the LCD are used to scroll between fault messages. The next button is also used in the Device Status Menu. The Test function Confirm, Test & Select buttons are used to control the one man test mode. The Disablement Select, Confirm & Disable are used to select panel section disablements. The numeric section is for entering access codes, and for entering device addresses. The alphabet keys are used to enter device labels in the programming menu. The remaining 5 buttons are miscellaneous items, each ones function is clearly labelled.

iv.

TEST MODE SELECTION FOR TEST ENGINEER ONLY This access level is obtained by pressing the test button, and entering the test code. This is a factory preset code which cannot be changed. Here the user can put any of the zones or sounder circuits into test mode. Turn the keyswitch back to the off position to exit this mode.

4.4 CHECKING THE PANELS INDICATION LEDS Turn the key switch to Controls Enabled position then press the LED test button . All the LEDs on the front panel will light for 3 seconds, and the panels internal buzzer will also sound. 4.5 WHAT THE LEDS MEAN The LEDs on the Premier AD can be grouped into the following sections: General Indications: These are indications to specific conditions, such as power, power supply faults, Earth faults, double address, system fault etc. They indicate all conditions except those that relate to the zones & sounders. Common Indications: These are Common Fire & Common Fault. These light in conjunction with another LED which indicates the fire or fault condition, as a backup indication. They do not represent a specific event. Zone Indications: These are used to show a fire, fault, test mode, or disablement on a zone. Note that the zone does not necessarily refer to a specific section of cabling. It refers to the address set to the devices. External Sounder Indications: These are used to show the state of the external sounder circuits. They can be active, in fault, in test mode, or disabled. Mode Indications: These are used to show which mode the panel is in. The controls active LED shows if the controls are enabled. The general Test & general disablement are used to indicate test mode & disablement mode respectively.

5. THE FIRE CONDITION

5.1 HOW THE PREMIER AD INDICATES AN ALARM

When the Premier AD Fire Alarm Panel is set into alarm by a Detector or Manual Call Point located in a zone that is not already in alarm it will: -

Light the General Fire LED and appropriate Zone Fire LED(s) on the front of its enclosure Sound Internal buzzer Start the Alarm Sounder and Auxiliary output, (provided there is no Delay set on the sounders). The building evacuation procedure should now be followed. IMPORTANT NOTE: If a zone has been disabled, it can not be triggered into Alarm. This should be remembered when disabling part of the system. (see Disabling zones or sounders later in this manual).

5.2 TO TURN OFF THE ALARM SOUNDERS

The Alarm Sounders may be silenced by turning the control key to Control Enable position and momentarily pressing the Start/Stop button.

The Alarm Sounders will cease to sound* but the light(s) for the Zone(s) in Alarm and the red General Fire light will stay lit. The Auxiliary Fire relay will remain active. (The Panels internal buzzer can also be silenced by pressing the Silence int flt button (button 2)). *Addressable loop sounders will stop within 2 seconds. Sounder bases can take up to 8 seconds to stop. If the START/STOP button is pressed again during this time, the panel will start the sounders again. 5.3 A SECOND ALARM SIGNAL FROM A NEW DETECTION ZONE If another detection Zone is activated after the Alarm Sounders have been silenced, the panel will: -

Restart the sounders Light the Zone Fire LED(s) for any new Zone(s) in alarm Keep the light(s) for the previous Zone(s) in fire, and General Fire lit.

5.4 TURNING ON THE ALARM SOUNDERS FROM THE FACP (I.E. TO EVACUATE THE BUILDING).

With the control key in Controls Enabled position, momentarily pressing the Start/Stop will cause the Alarm sounders to sound. Pressing the Start/Stop button again will Silence the Alarm Sounders. Note: If the Alarm Sounders have been disabled, pressing the Stop/Start button will have no effect.

5.5 RESETTING THE PANEL

Check the cause of the alarm activation. If the cause of the alarm was an activated call point, reset it (if resettable type), or fit a new glass element (if glass type). If the cause of the alarm was by detector activation (eg cooking smoke), the smoke will have to be cleared from the room before the panel can be reset. Reset the panel by pressing the reset button (3) after the sounders and panel buzzer have been silenced. If the call point is still active, or the detector is still smoky, this will cause another alarm straight after the panel is reset, and the alarm bells will start again.

6. THE FAULT CONDITION

6.1 DIFFERENT TYPES OF FAULT The fire alarm monitors itself, and any equipment connected to it, for any faults that can occur. If a fault occurs, the Panel responds by activating its Internal buzzer and lighting the General Fault light and any other Fault light(s) relevant to the particular fault. The panel will also display the fault on its LCD display. The Panels Fault relay will also activate. Typical faults are described below: Zone Fault The relevant Zone Fault light flashes when there is a wiring problem on a Zone or detector has been removed from its base. It should be noted that any alarms raised on the fault zone(s) may not be recognised by the Fire Alarm Panel until the Fault Conditions have been cleared. It can take up to10 seconds from repairing a fault for the display to clear.

LED ON LED OFF

*** Device Fault *** 1 of 1 Floor 1 Room 101 Zone:01 Lp:1 Ad:001

Power Supply Fault The Premier AD has 3 separate LEDs to help pinpoint the source of the problem. Battery Fault indicates that there is no battery connected to the panel. Charger Fault indicates there is a problem with the mains supply (or one of its fuses). Low Battery indicates that the battery voltage has dropped below 21 volts, and that these batteries are no longer working. If the mains supply fails, the panel will only operate for the standby period dictated by the size of the batteries fitted. If the batteries or charger fails at the same time as the Mains, the Panel will be inoperative.

System Fault The System Fault LED lights when the Panels micro-processor has Reset, typically after excessive electrical interference, or if the contents of its memory have been corrupted. This fault can only be cleared by turning the key switch from off position to control enable position and then back to the off position again. If the fault re-occurs within 1 hour, this is indicative of a corrupt memory and expert advice should be sought. Note that leaving the memory write enable switch on also lights system fault as a warning to turn the switch off.

6.2 WHAT TO DO IF A FAULT CONDITION OCCURS If a fault occurs, the responsible person should:

Turn keyswitch to Controls enabled and press silence flt tone button to silence the fault buzzer. Write down the fault (s) in the Log Book at the back of this Manual. Take appropriate action to correct the fault (Usually by contacting the service engineer)

On the Premier AD panel, the fault indications (except system fault) are non latching. That is, when the fault has been cleared, the fault indication will turn off. When all faults have been cleared, the panel will return to its quiescent (normal) condition. When a fault has been rectified the indicator light for that Fault is automatically turned off. If all Faults are cleared, the General Fault light will go out and the Panels Internal Sounder will be silent (if not already muted). 6.3 OTHER LED INDICATIONS DISABLEMENTS TEST MODE

7. DISABLEMENTS
7.1 REASONS FOR DISABLING CERTAIN PARTS OF A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM. Certain parts of this Fire Alarm Panel can be temporarily disabled (i.e. switched off) to suit prevailing conditions. For example, if there is a risk of a False Alarm in a zone, for example, from vehicle exhaust smoke in a loading bay, it is possible for the user to disable that zone during the risk period and then enable it again afterwards. During a disablement of a zone(s), no fire or fault signal will be processed for that zone(s). Only zone(s) in a non-alarm state can be disabled, that is zones already in a fire condition cannot be disabled. External sounders can also be disabled as could be required in certain conditions. 7.2 TO DISABLE A ZONE AND/OR EXTERNAL SOUNDERS.
