WARNING
Impermissible line configuration
An impermissible line configuration can cause the alarm devices connected to this
line to be supplied with insufficient power in the event of a fire. This prevents the
alarm from sounding in the corresponding parts of a building. This can cause
serious injuries or death.
● Make sure that all lines of a line card have a permissible line configuration by
calibrating them successfully. You will find information about the requirements
for a permissible line configuration in the 'Planning detector lines' chapter of
the document 'A6V10210362'.
Calibrate a line manually on the 'PMI' in the following cases if automatic line
calibration is deactivated in the configuration of the line:
● The line topology has been changed.
● The configuration of the brightness level and/or the sound level of the sounders
has changed.
● The PMI displays a calibration error for a line.
Calibrate all lines of a periphery board or a line card manually on the 'PMI' in the
following cases, even if automatic line calibration has been activated in the
configuration of the line:
● A periphery board with an integrated line card has been changed.
● A line card has been changed.
If the 'Automatic without manual recalibration' calibration mode is configured for a
line, then it must first be changed to the 'Automatic with manual recalibration' or
'Manual' calibration mode in the configuration. Otherwise, it will not be possible to
manually calibrate the line.
The duration of a line calibration consists of a 45-second base time plus about 1
second per installed 'Voice alarm sounder beacon/Voice al. sound. beacon base'
device on the line to be calibrated. This means a line with 252 'Voice alarm
sounder beacon/Voice al. sound. beacon base' devices can be calibrated in about
5 minutes.
You will find more information on line calibration in chapter 'Calibrating an FDnet/C-
NET detector line [➙ 58]'.
