  • Page 3: Introduction

    1 Introduction These installation instructions describe the hardware connection facilities of the CM+ fire alarm control panel, in detail and with specifications, wiring requirements, tips and EN54-2 requirements. Once the control panel has been fully connected, it has to be told what hardware connections will be used.

    2 Installation 2.1 Removing the cover The cover can be removed without using tools. Place your fingers under the housing between the clips and the housing and pull the lower edge away from the housing. Gently push the cover upwards so that it comes away from the top pivots.
  • Page 5: Connecting The Mains Power

    3 Connecting the mains power The fire alarm control panel must be connected to the 230 V AC mains via a double-pole circuit breaker in the electrical distribution cabinet. The cable must be at least 2 x 1.5 mm , and must be separated from the rest of the control panel wiring as much as possible.
  • Page 6 Calculating autonomy The battery capacity is chosen as a function of the desired autonomy of the fire alarm system in the event of a mains failure, for example 24 or 72 hours. First calculate the total power consumption. main PCB: 7.5 mA +10 mA per activated relay zone in operation: 5 mA...
  • Page 7: Zone Connections

    This requirement is met automatically when Argina sirens are used. With other sirens it can sometimes be necessary to fit a diode (type 1N4007) in series with them.
  • Page 8: Output

    7 24 V output External devices can be connected to this output. The output is electronically secured and the maximum permitted current is 500 mA. The precise way the output operates can be altered by using the CMPlus.exe program. For example, it can be arranged that the 24 V output is interrupted when the fire alarm control panel is reset, e.g.
  • Page 9: Switch Loop

    9 Switch loop Up to 4 contacts can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Each operating panel and the fire alarm control panel itself has a monitored input loop to accommodate them, and can be used for example for reading a reset switch with a triangle key as used in the Netherlands, or an external buzzer stop switch.

    The strings the pager sends always begin with ‘#’ and end with ‘\r’ (0D hex). Evacuation: #FAL,EVA Alarm on loop 1: #FAL,L01 Alarm on loop 2: #FAL,L02 Alarm on loop ..: #FAL,L.. Alarm on loop 10: #FAL,L10 Mains fault: #FLT,MNS (a mains fault also sends #FLT) Battery fault: #FLT,BAT (a battery fault also sends #FLT)
  • Page 11: Connecting The Integral Operating Panel

    11.1 Connecting the integral operating panel Hang the fire alarm control panel cover on the housing’s lower pivot points. Next plug the operating panel connector into one of the 3-pin connectors on the main PCB. Ensure when closing the cover that the connecting cable is not trapped between the cover and the housing.
  • Page 12: Connecting The Optional Module

    Addressing external operating panels: is only necessary if there are 2 external operating panels: Scratch away the etched track on the place indicated on operating panel 2 in order to change its address from 1 to 2. 12 Connecting the optional module 12.1 Relay PCB An optional PCB with 8 freely-configurable relays can be plugged into the control panel.
  • Page 13: Configuring Using The Operating Panel

    13 Configuring using the operating panel The fire alarm control panel is configured according to local needs during commissioning. The basic configuration can be set up using the operating panel. This may only be done by specialist technicians. The CMPlus.exe program is required for full configuration. 13.1 Available functions function 1 First delay time T1 (Operator Response Time)
  • Page 14 If evacuation is necessary, it can be signalled by pressing the Sirens On key on the operating panel or by activating one of the alarm pushbuttons (which are distributed throughout the building). If the operating panel is not operated within this time (T2), the alarm devices will be activated automatically.
  • Page 15: Zone Set-Up Is Immediate / Delayed (Function 4)

    Operation without delay (night scheme) The Delayed Operation LED is extinguished. In this mode the delay times are NOT active and all alarms will operate immediately. Switching between day/night The operating mode of the control panel can be switched using the Day/Night key (operating level 2).
  • Page 16: User Code (Function 6)

    13.6 User Code (Function 6) The user code has to be entered to access the functions in access level 2. These functions are: sirens on/off, reset, O/I, Test, day/night. The User Code has 3 digits (001 to 999). The 0 digit is entered using key 10. Entering 000 disables the User Code, which means that level 2 functions are then freely accessible (to enter the code 000, press key 10 3 times).
