IXING THE IGITAL Digital Unit FG-SYS E is used in Rack Mounted Version, in a bay or a cupboard 19 '''. It is advised to envisage a site with height of the eyes to facilitate the reading of the display.
Connections are done on the electronic board of the digital unit. The connector blocks are directly accessible and removable (male parts) on the FG-SYSF and E; for the FG-SYS F (metal enclosure wall mounted version), it is necessary to turn the key button of the front face to open it.
Page 7
(See Appendix n°1: FG-SYS E or F Digital Unit Connection page 57, and also available separately inside the unit) Each circuit of sense cables is connected to the FG-SYS Digital Unit with a TTK Leader Cable (Belden 8723), ref. FG-CLC Caution: An inversion between the two couples red + black, and green + white, damages the electronic of the first connected sense cable.
3.6 Closing the FG-SYS F Digital Unit All connections being finished, close the FG-SYS F Digital Unit. Fix the part of the unit containing the circuit board on the part fixed at the wall. Be careful to the various cables connected and the flat ribbons during closing the front door.

II SENSE CABLE AND ACCESSORIES INSTALLATION FG-SYS System is modular. All the sense cables and accessories are pre-terminated with both male and female connectors. This makes the installation quick, easy, and safe. We recommend drawing a precise map of all zones to be fitted with sense cables, ensuring that all installation zones are clean and dry before installation.
6. FG-OD kit installation instructions CAUTION: All hydrocarbon sense cables must be installed in dry and clean areas On the basis of the FG-SYS Digital Unit, unroll the lengths of sense cable while placing them in the clips fixed on the ground.
Page 11
To connect the FG-SYS Digital Unit, follow the FG-SYS installation instructions guide in chapter 1.3 of this document. FG-SYS haves a capacity of 40x FG-OD cables per circuit. Those cables must be connected to the panel through a FG-DOD bus interface by groups of ten cables maximum.

1.4 Labeling with ES-EC tags Labels ES-EC indicate the presence of sense cables installed. Part of the label is reserved to the user to note the distance rose, during water leak simulations. 1. Fix the labels every four meters on the circuit of sense cables. 2.

In the last Sector Diversion Box, We must end with a shunt in OUTPUT in the circuit board, between A and B. Installation of the FG-DTCS Diversion box must be done when the FG-SYS Digital Unit is switched off. INPUT corresponds to the Belden cable coming from the FG-SYS Digital Unit OUTPUT corresponds to the Belden cable leaving towards the following Diversion Box FG-ECS corresponds to the FG-ECS sense cable.
Page 20
In the last FG-DCTL addressable box, the circuit must be completed with a shunt in the OUTPUT of the circuit board (between A and B). The INPUT is linked to the Belden cable coming from the FG-SYS Digital Unit, or from the previous FG-DCTL addressable box The OUTPUT is linked to the Belden cable leaving towards the next FG-DCTL addressable box The SENSOR output is linked to the FG-ECS, FG-ACS, FG-ECX or FG-ACX sense cable.
3.3 FG-DTC, TTK Bus Diversion The TTK Bus Diversion box makes it possible to break up a detection circuit into two parts. The box is provided with three cable glands: ‘INPUT’, ‘OUTPUT2’ and ‘‘OUTPUT1’. FG-DTC Diversion Box Diagram: INPUT OUTPUT2...

See below for instructions on how to connect the FG-OD cables to the main bus wire. The INPUT is linked to the Belden cable coming from the FG-SYS Digital Unit, or from a previous box OD BUS is linked to the FG-OD sense cables (10x max per FG-DOD box) OUTPUT corresponds to the Belden cable towards the end of the circuit.
3.5 End Termination Plug 3.5.1. FG-TMC End Termination Plug (Use Only with FG-EC or FG-AC Sense Cables) Each circuit of sense cable must be end with an End Termination Plug. FG-TMC is used for the circuit continuity. 3.5.2. FG-TMX End Termination Plug (Use Only with FG-ECX or FG-ACX Sense Cable) 3.5.3.
When all of the cables - leader cables, jumper cables, sense cables, power supply cables - and the accessories – diversion boxes, end termination plugs- are connected, switch the FG-SYS Digital Unit When the digital unit is turned on, it goes into TEST mode: an audible alarm sounds and a luminous witness glows red.
2. STANDBY MODE The Configuration Menu - accessible via the letter [M] - is used to set the parameters of the digital unit. To access it, you must enter your secret code. The factory access code is: 1234. You can change it in this menu. MENU CONFIGURATION 1-DESIGNATIONS 2-OPERATION...

Example: four 15 m cables are associated to form a group of 60 metres. In the event of a leak detected by the third cable of the group, the alarms will be located between 31 m and 45 m instead of between 1 m and 15 m.

The screen then proposes the discontinuity synthesis, for which the relay number will necessarily be the same as for the leak synthesis. Re-confirm using the V button. The digital unit screen returns to the previous menu. Press the right arrow button to configure a relay linked to alarms on cable 001. Choose a relay number for the leaks and confirm.

The communication is always point-to-point, type question-answer, with only one device using the connexion line at a time. The user of our FG-SYS Digital Unit could configure slave numbers from 1 to 99 and thus the simultaneous connexion of several central units to existing communication line is easy and very simple to do.

The polarisation of communication lines from RS422/485 must be ensured by the supervisor. It is recommended to provide a break of at least 500 mms between JBUS polls. Caution! The simultaneous use of RS232 and RS422/485 interfaces causes the serial interface of the FG-SYS Digital Unit to power down.

The cables in alarm status are drawn in red and the normal status cables are in blue. A small graphic window simulating the central unit display is seen just next to each sense cable in alarm status. The maps are real-time information about a particular zone; each new event updates the information on the corresponding window.

IV TEST PROCEDURE All the material was installed; you have just turned the FG-SYS digital unit on, it is now necessary to test the system. 1. FUNCTION TEST The digital unit automatically carries out a general test during the powering of the system. This function TEST is also available from the MONITORING mode by pressing the key [T].
2. TEST OF LEAK The digital unit is in monitoring mode. Simulate in several areas a leak, in order to check the correct operation of the digital unit. The accuracy of the localization is ± 1 metre to the leak. Caution: A fault must be present for at least 30/40 seconds before being detected by the digital unit.
Page 44
The drawing identifies a series of simulated leaks; the localization of these leaks is displayed on the FG-SYS Digital Unit. Make a simulation at the remote end of all the sense cables on the circuit. Precisely note the localization given by the digital unit displayed on the LCD Digital Unit. It is easier to carry out these simulations with a suitable tool of communication (transmitting - receiver).
2.3 Addition of Sense Cables on an Existing Circuit An extension of the FG-SYS Digital Unit implies either an addition of sense cables on a circuit of existing cables (maximum capacity of 40 sense cables per circuit,) or the installation of a new circuit of...
