, etc. (detailed information is contained in the device I&MM). The UCS 4000 controller is able to interoperate with the POLON 4100 control panel using a detection line (connected to the circuit as any other line element).
Page 46
Each UCS type element can be assigned only to one logical number and reversely. The UCS 4000 operation way is a resultant of the P1 main relay actuation variant and individual settings of the keys in the UCS controlling unit.
The P1 main relay actuation variants are programmed only for a UCS 4000 that possesses a logical number. In the case of variant 2 and variant 5 application, at least one zone should be assigned to the UCS device, whereas in the case of variant 3 and variant 6 application, at least two zones should be assigned.

ID-E342-001GB The POLON 4100 control panel receives from the UCS 6000 controller the following modes: 1. quiescent mode (also during the UCS active airing function), 2. fire alarm (active RPO – manual smoke exhaust button connected to the UCS dedicated input, an alarm from a conventional detection line connected to the UCS controller, or an alarm from an external inputs), 3.

Up to 16 terminals can be connected to one control panel; transmission is provided utilizing an RS- 485 serial interface.
ID-E342-001GB 7 FUNCTIONALITY DESCRIPTIONS 7.1 Alarming 7.1.1 Alarm types After triggering a line element installed in an addressable detection line, the POLON 4100 control panel – on a basis of decision algorithms – signals: 1. PRELIMINARY ALARM, 2. 1 STAGE ALARM, 3.
ID-E342-001GB stage alarm can be preceded by a 1 stage alarm or is generated immediately depending on an alarm variant programmed for a particular zone in an object or the control panel operation mode. The 2 stage alarm calls for immediate fire-fighting action. Simultaneously with the optical signalisation during a fire alarm, the control panel evokes a steady acoustic sound, which can be silenced using a backlit ‘ACKNOWLEDGEMENT’...
ID-E342-001GB Lack of the same or another warning device actuation in the same zone within 8-min. period, causes that the control panel recognizes the previous actuation as false. The variant described above should be applicable in the cases of momentary occurrence of a fire factor not related to a fire.
ID-E342-001GB Depending on the expected fire types, it is possible to use various combinations of smoke (ionization, optical) and heat detectors. An individual fixed temperature detector actuation in a zone evokes also an alarm in this zone and the 2nd stage fire alarm at this control panel. Note: The 4043 model range detectors (DIO-4043, DOR-4043, DUR-4043, and TUN-4043) are unable to operate in a zone programmed in an interactive alarm variant.
ID-E342-001GB The variant proper performance requires declaring at least one warning device to A and B group (2 warning devices for each group are recommended). The groups created in this way should not be separated with any physical obstacle. Any failure to meet those conditions can result in the alarming warning device continual reset.
ID-E342-001GB case of a renewed fire warning device actuation outage in the zone within 8 minutes, the control panel treats the previous warning device actuation as false, and returns to the quiescent mode. Actuation of two or more warning devices in the zone results in an accelerated 2 stage alarm triggering.
ID-E342-001GB 7.2 Fault The POLON 4100 control panel – due to internal self-monitoring circuits – reveals and indicates faults that occur in the detection lines and inside the panel, too. The revealed faults are indicated optically and acoustically. Faults are indicated optically by a steady yellow light of the FAULT collective diode and additionally they are indicated acoustically with a slow interrupted sound of a steady frequency.
- voltage drop below 22 V, - terminal earth fault. i) other faults: - faults in UCS 4000 panels, - faults in UCS 6000 panels. Note: In order to cancel a system fault it is necessary to switch the K6 key of SW1 switch located on PSC board and then perform the active processor reset.
ID-E342-001GB The elements switch over for testing in the zone is carried out in accordance with the PM. The zone switch over for testing is signalled by a steady light of the yellow collective TEST diode. After a test alarm signal receipt from a line element, information about the test alarm is displayed on the LCD.
ID-E342-001GB A section of a zone disablement/re-enablement is performed disabling individual addressable in the zone, whereas the whole zone disablement/re-enablement can be performed in much simpler way, carrying out the operation for the whole zone in the ZONES DISABLEMENT option. Disablement of fire warning device or entire zone entails that the control panel does not receive alarm and fault signals from the disabled line elements, therefore automatically switches off fault signalling within this zone, if such signal is sent.
ID-E342-001GB and an interruption of the fault alarm signalling. After a re-enablement, unless the fault is removed, the fault signalling is restored. 7.5 Event memory and alarm memory 7.5.1 Event memory The POLON 4100 control panel is able to store up to 2,000 latest events in its non-volatile memory. Every event is characterized with a detailed text description and date and time of event (with 1-s accuracy).
