The Fire Panel
The Fire Panel connects to all of the smoke detectors, fire detectors,
manual pull boxes, fire alarms, etc.within the building. When one of the
Fire Panel sensors detects a problem, the Fire Panel informs the Infinity
smoke control which sensor is in an alarm condition and what the alarm
condition is. The Infinity smoke control system receives all of it's alarm
information from the Fire Panel. The smoke control zones must
correspond to the Fire Panel's fire zones.
There are two methods for connecting the Fire Panel to the Infinity
smoke control system: using an RS-232 communications channel or by
the Zoned Wiring method.
RS-232 Communications
As part of Andover Controls' UL Listing, the following Fire Panels can
communicate directly with the CX9200 via RS-232:
Simplex Time Recorder Co.
1 Simplex Plaza
Gardner, Massachusetts 01441
(508) 632-2500
Edwards Systems Technology, Inc.
195 Farmington Avenue
Farmington, Connecticut 06032
(203) 678-0410
Zoned Wiring
If you are using a Fire Panel that is not listed above, you will have to
connect to the Infinity smoke control system using the Zoned Wiring
method. This requires running a set of wires for each zone from a contact
closure output on the Fire Panel to inputs on the FSCS. The CX9200 will
poll the FSCS to determine when a zone is in an alarm condition. If you
plan on using this method, you must specify that a terminal block be
provided with the FSCS that connects to the FSCS inputs. See the
following chapter for more details.
