INTRODUCTION
The Vector printer is an add-on option for the Vector analogue addressable fire alarm system .
The printer is integrated into a control panel lid and operates on a network basis. Therefore it can
be used to produce print outs for any panel on the network. The Printer can be configured to
record all events from a network or just from a local panel only . Up to 16 printers can be
connected to any individual network.
The thermal printer produces high speed clear prints. No ink ribbon is required, only a thermal
paper roll.
The printer will record all fire events, fault events , alarm log , fault log and user log, control panel
parameters and disablements. The printer is also used to log engineer tests and produce a
maintenance report.
The printer is complete with a paper feed button and 'paper out' indicator. Two printer options are
available via an on board dual in line switch.
1)
system wide or local printing.
2)
suppress fault printing or print all faults.
ESD Precaution
Electronic components are vulnerable to damage by Electrostatic Discharges (ESD). An ESD
wrist strap, suitably grounded, should be worn at all times when handling pcbs. These wrist straps
are designed to prevent the build up of static charges, not only within a persons body, but on
many other materials.
ESD damage is not always evident immediately, faults can manifest themselves at anytime in the
future.
All pcbs should be stored in static shielded bags (silvered) for safe keeping, when not mounted in
the control panel. Do not use "black" or "pink" bags and never allow pcbs to come in contact with
bubble wrap or expanded polystyrene (packing chips).
