Single station smoke detectors -- typically used in hotel rooms, dormitories, and
hospital rooms -- contain their own sounder. When activated, only the sounder
on the activated device signals the presence of an alarm condition. This
application describes programming the 4010 so that when a manual pull station
activates, all single station devices in the area also activate.
Use the PC Programmer's Point tab to program each Single Station Device with
the following attributes:
•
Device Type. A single station device can use any one of the following
device types:
SPHOTO designates that a photoelectric sensor is attached to a
-
separate sounder base.
- XSPHOTO indicates that a photoelectric sensor is mounted to a
separate sounder base and that the system is using a more sensitive
smoke-detection algorithm. (.2% sensitivity to smoke not .5%.).
QSPHOTO is a quick connect photoelectric sensor/sounder base
-
combination in which the sensor cannot be removed from the base.
- SHEAT is a heat detector attached to a separate sounder base.
SION indicates that an ionization detector is mounted to a separate
-
sounder base.
- SOHEAT is a rate of rise heat detector mounted to a separate sounder
base.
•
Point Type. Any of the standard point types may be used, including
DUCT, GVMON, SDUCT, SMOKE, UTIL, VSMOKE. Refer to Appendix
A of this manual for the function of these point types.
•
Mode. The default mode setting for a TrueAlarm device equipped with
sounder is SSTATION (Single Station), which is required to support single
station operation.
To check whether this mode is enabled, you need to select the PC
Programmer's Card Tab and view the IDNet card. The Mode field is on the
far right of the device's point information. (Note: Mode does not appear
in the Point Tab.)
Adding each area's pull stations to a separate list limits the number of Custom
Control equations required to implement this application. To add an area's pull
stations to a list, use the PC Programmer's List Tab.
Programming selective activation of single station devices requires two
equations, as shown in Figure 2-11.
