General features and functions

● Fast Ethernet interface for a heterogeneous network
● Processes the signals of the Cerberus PRO detector series FD720
● Floor repeater displays, terminals and alarm devices on the C-NET detector line with
power supply via C-NET
● Interface to Siemens danger management system
● Slots for RS232 and RS485 serial interfaces
● All detector lines are monitored for ground faults
● Integrated degraded mode function
● Freely configurable, time-dependent controls with optional weekly, monthly, and yearly
switching programs
● Time and situation-dependent changeover of detector parameter sets
● Controls for synchronous activation of sounder bases/sounders (acoustic, optical,
language)
● The control panel and the fire detection system are custom-configured using the
'Cerberus-Engineering-Tool' software
● Firmware for all processor-controlled control panel components can be updated
● Customer texts can be adapted directly on the operating unit of the control panel or with
the 'Cerberus-Engineering-Tool' software
● Up to 13000 events can be called up from the event memory and filtered based on
various criteria
● Automatic summer/normal time changeover

Control panel-specific features

From IP8, the fire control panels can be ordered with a periphery board with a 0.5 A or
1.5 A output current per C-NET line.
To convert existing fire control panels, the periphery board with 1.5 A per C-NET line can
be ordered separately.

You will find information on the integrated extinguishing system and the individual
extinguishing components that are available in a separate data sheet with the document ID
'A6V11480005'.

The power supply feeds the hardware and charges the batteries.
In the event of a power cut, the batteries provide emergency current.

Housing
An FHA2007-A1 pivoting mounting plate can be fitted for the following elements above the
periphery board on the rear housing panel:
● 1x fire brigade periphery module (for Germany)
● 2x sounder modules (as an alternative to mounting on U-rail TS35)
● 1x Connect X200 Gateway

Configuration
The following software allows the system to be customized:
● Cerberus-Engineering-Tool
Operation
Each control unit has an integrated operating unit. The control panel can also be operated
