CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Introduction This Manual is intended as a guide to the engineering and commissioning principles of the CIE-A-200 Addressable Intelligent Fire Alarm and Detection system, and covers the system hardware information only. Due to the complexity and inherent importance of a system covering a ‘Life Protection Risk’, training on this equipment is essential, and commissioning should only be carried out by competent and approved persons.
The CIE-A-200 system is defined as an Addressable Intelligent Detector System or an Addressable Fire Detection and Alarm System with Independent Distributed Intelligence. Distributed intelligence signifies that the signal processing is spread throughout the system, in order that the decisions about fires and faults are taken within the detector itself.
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Control Panel Mounting the Control Panel First, identify the proposed location for the control panel. Ensure that the control panel will be easily accessible, and that account is taken of any subsequent work that may affect access. It should be located at the most likely point of access for the fire services.
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Control Panel Disassembly The backboard assembly is attached to the panel back box by two brackets on the bottom of the assembly, the two brackets hook into the back box. There is a single captive knurled screw in the centre at the top of the assembly which holds it in.
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Cabinet Installation Surface Mounting The three mounting holes should be used to secure the cabinet to a solid wall using suitable screws of at least 50mm in length. Ensure that a minimum gap of 50mm is left between the sides of the back box and any wall or projection (such as another box).
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Cable Entry The cable entry locations are provided by two rows of knockouts at the top, six on the back and one on the bottom. The bottom knockout should be used if the 12Ah battery box is used.
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Addressable Circuit Wiring Topology & Cabling All system wiring should be installed to comply with the current BS 5839: Pt 1 and BS 7671 (wiring regulations) and any other standards relevant to the area or type of installation. A cable complying with the current BS 5839: Pt 1: Category 1 (cables required to operate for prolonged periods during fire conditions) is required.
It can detect the type of the device and, in the case of devices manufactured from March 2010, the subtype from the above list as well. For devices manufactured prior to this date, the CIE-A-200 OSP will attempt to detect the subtype and use the appropriate DLUs. The engineer can override the automatically detected subtype if required i.e.

CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Loop –ve Open Circuit If the system faces a Loop –ve open circuit during initialisation, the initialisation will not fail at that point, but continue as normal to the end of the loop. All devices will be operational (as long as no other faults exist).
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Earth Faults General If the control panel detects a short circuit or leakage current to earth/screen from one of its supply rails (either 0V or +Ve) an Earth Fault will be displayed. The voltage between 0V and Earth SCRN can be checked with a DVM. The normal voltage is 1.7V.
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual General Fault Finding Common Faults In the event that inexplicable or random faults continue after any obvious indication has been dealt with, take the following steps. Verify that the addressable device loop cable readings are correct and suitable. Take particular note of the screen resistance and rectify any faults found.
CIE-A-200 Control Panel Engineering and Commissioning Manual Intermittent and Recurring Faults Smoke Sensor Failed – Signal High Ensure that the correct device is being investigated by comparing its description with the device address, and / or the serial number. Do not remove or add devices with the loop active.
