ID-E300-001E Fig. 5.1 POLON 4200 block diagram 5.2 TSO-4000 operator’s console The board TSO-4200 consists of the following main parts: • liquid crystal display (LCD), • PS-49 signalling devices board, • PO-42 operation panel (keypad + signalling diodes), • DR-48 printer. The LCD is connected (mechanically and electrically) with the PSC-43 central controller board located on the control panel door.
ID-E300-001GB 5.3.1 Module signalling and handling elements On the PSC-43 module left inner edge there are two illuminating diodes that indicate the module operation service status. A mini-switch, marked as Reset μPC, located in the board back, is used to perform the μPC microprocessor’s restart (by a short button pressing).
The MSL-1M-42 line module is provided for controlling and supporting the detection lines in which the POLON 4000 system addressable line elements are installed. Any addressable detection line can operate as a loop-shaped A type circuit or radial B type one (open line).

ID-E300-001GB Note: In case the ADC-4001M adapter with a grounded intrinsically safe barrier is applied in a side line, it is necessary to disable the earth fault signalling by removing the S4 jumper on the MSL-1M-42 module. The MSL-1M-42 module communicates with the PSC-43 module receiving information about the current configuration of addressable elements in detection lines and about commands to be accomplished (switch an element or line on/off, reset an element, etc.), in return transmitting processed data concerning addressable elements and detection line status.

If the side line appears indispensable, it is advised to decrease as much as possible (less than a dozen) the number of the line elements installed in this line. The POLON 4000 system detection lines should be routed as follows: 1. radial lines without branches, 2.
300 nF. 6.2 Addressable elements numbering In the POLON 4000 system each addressable element possesses a unique 12-digit number, which is also called the factory number, whereas the control panel in its normal operation refers to the addressable elements using a short number (the short number – a figure from 1 ÷ 64 range). During a detecting line configuration, every addressable element factory number is assigned to a consecutive element number.

ID-E300-001E 7.2 Addressable elements declaration The control panel receives information and control operation of addressable elements, which are declared (operationally assigned) by the user. In the standard configuration (that is received by the user with the control panel) no addressable element is declared. Until declaration, no signal concerning type and status of line elements is being received but every 2 minutes the control panel checks coherence of the elements installed in the addressable detection line with the declared ones and –...

Up to 16 terminals can be connected to one control panel; transmission is provided utilizing an RS-485 serial interface.
ID-E300-001E The 1 stage alarm is indicated internally and it always requires the attending personnel appearance and the alarm acknowledgement by pressing the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT push button within the T1 period) and recognition of a danger in the premises (during T2 period). In the case of lack of appropriate reaction by the personnel on duty to the 1 alarm, the 2 stage alarm is evoked.
ID-E300-001GB 8.1.4 One-stage alarm with warning device single reset 40/60 s (variant 3) After a warning device actuation, the control panel waits for 40 s for actuation of another warning device in the same zone. If it happens, the control panel evokes the 2 stage alarm.
ID-E300-001E 8.1.9 Two-stage alarm with coincidence of two warning devices (variant 8) After a warning device actuation, the control panel resets the warning device and indicates a preliminary alarm mode. In case the same (reset) warning device is re-actuated and at least one more warning device is actuated in the same zone within the following 8 minutes, the control panel evokes the 2 stage alarm and the alarming process is continued as in the variant 2.
ID-E300-001GB separated with any physical obstacle. Any failure to meet those conditions can result in the alarming warning device continual reset. 8.1.13 Two-stage alarm with group-time coincidence (variant 12) After an actuation of warning devices belonging to one of the A or B group, the warning devices from one group are initially reset the control panel indicates the preliminary alarm mode.
ID-E300-001E Note: The variant proper performance requires declaring at least two warning devices (more is recommended) in the zone. 8.1.17 Two-stage alarm with preliminary zone reset and two warning devices coincidence in order to speed up 2 stage alarm (variant 16) After an actuation of a warning device belonging to the zone, the control panel measures out a 40-s period and automatically resets the zone then.
ID-E300-001GB The operation mode switchover is performed after the PERSONNEL ABSENT push button pressing and is indicated by illumination of the diode located in the button. The control panel operation mode change is available from at least the 2 access level. The PERSONNEL ABSENT operation mode switchover is executed automatically if one of four times that automatically changes the operation mode for the PERSONNEL ABSENT, is programmed.
ID-E300-001GB 8.3.1 TSO-4200 table signalling elements testing During signalling elements test execution, consecutive optical diodes are lit and acoustic signals are switched on. After the test, the control panel automatically returns to normal operation. A testing process is automatically interrupted in the case of a fire alarm signal receipt by the control panel, it is impossible to switch to the test mode during a fire alarm signalling.
ID-E300-001E 8.4 System elements disablement/re-enablement The control panel software enables disablement of line elements, zones, outputs controlled by the PPW module or EKS-4001 monitoring and controlling elements. Any disablement is indicated by the control panel with a steady light of the DISABLEMENT collective yellow diode.
