Alarm points

Units, which can generate fire alarm (in the control unit), i.e. a sensor,
a conventional detector, a manual call point, etc.

Smoke detector

Two types of analog and conventional smoke detectors are available:
photo electric (optical) and ionization.

Sensor

Sensor = Analog detector

Analog detector

Contains an A/D-converter. The Control Unit pick up the digital
values ("sensor values") for each detector individually.
evaluations and "decisions" are then made in the C.U.
detectors are addressable – an address setting tool is used for detector
types 33xx and a DIL-Switch in the ASB (see below) for detectors
2xxx. An analog detector has to be plugged in an ASB.

(Analog) Sensor Base (ASB)

A sensor is plugged in an ASB, which is connected to a COM loop
(see below). Sensor Base types 2xxx have a DIL-Switch for COM
loop address setting.

Conventional detector

Detector with two states, normal or fire alarm. The detector contains a
closing contact and a series alarm resistor. Some types are plugged in
an ADB (see below) or a CDB (see below). Some types are also
available as addressable, to be connected to a COM loop (see below).
(Normally plugged in a CDB (see below), connected to a conventional
zone line with end-of-line resistor.)

Conventional Detector Base (CDB)

A conventional detector is plugged in a CDB, connected to an external
line, an addressable zone interface, conventional zone line, etc.

Addressable Detector Base (ADB)

A conventional detector is plugged in an ADB, connected to a COM
loop (see below).
