Introduction
CLIP
CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) polls devices in sequential order. Many but not all Flash-Scan-capable devices can be set to run
in CLIP mode; see installation sheet shipped with the device.
1.5.2 Protocol Use
LCM-320/LEM-320 loops on NFS2-640, NFS2-3030, NFS-3030 and NFS-640, and SLC loops on NFS-320 can run in FlashScan mode
or CLIP mode. AFP-100, AFP1010, AFP-200, AFP-300/AFP-400, AM2020, and System 5000 with AIM-200 run in CLIP mode only.
Many FlashScan devices can be programmed to run in either CLIP or FlashScan mode. Use one of the following three options with SLC
loops:
1.
Program all modules and detectors on an SLC as FlashScan.
2.
Program all modules and detectors on an SLC as CLIP.
CAUTION:
!
DO NOT PROGRAM MORE THAN 99 ADDRESSES ON A CLIP-MODE SLC LOOP, BECAUSE THIS WILL SLOW THE
SYSTEM DOWN AND COMPROMISE THE RESPONSE TIME OF THE PANEL TO DISPLAY OFF-NORMAL EVENTS.
3.
Program all detectors as CLIP and all modules as FlashScan on an SLC.
CAUTION:
!
DO NOT PROGRAM MODULES AS CLIP AND DETECTORS AS FLASHSCAN ON THE SAME SLC. THIS
COMBINATION DOES NOT WORK.
1.6 Devices
NOTE: In this manual, UL-listed model numbers are used; the ULC-listed versions are specified in Section E, "Canadian Versions of SLC
Devices", on page 73.
1.6.1 Monitor/Zone Interface Module
These addressable modules allow the control panel to monitor entire circuits of conventional alarm initiating devices, such as manual
pull stations, smoke detectors, heat detectors, waterflow, and supervisory devices.
•
FMM-1 Monitor Module; FlashScan or CLIP mode. (An earlier module named MMX-1 was CLIP mode only.)
•
FMM-101 Addressable Mini-Monitor Module; FlashScan or CLIP mode. (An earlier module named MMX-101 was CLIP mode
only.)
•
FMM-4-20 Four-to-Twenty Milli-Amp Monitor Module; FlashScan mode only. CLIP mode operation will generate a trouble
message at the panel. This module is only compatible with the NFS2-3030.
•
FZM-1 Zone Interface Module; FlashScan or CLIP mode. (An earlier module named MMX-2 was CLIP mode only).
•
SLC-IM SLC Integration Module communicates between the VHS-1420-HFS and a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). It translates
Modbus protocol to SLC protocol enabling events on the VESDAnet to be annunciated by an FACP.
•
XP5-M Supervises five Class-B addressable Initiating Device Circuits (IDC) which monitor normally open contact initiating
devices. Supports FlashScan or CLIP mode. This module is capable of participating in degraded mode where supported by the
FACP. (See the XP5 Series Manual.)
•
XP6-MA Allows an intelligent alarm system to monitor six zones of conventional two-wire detectors; FlashScan or CLIP mode.
•
XP10-M Supervises ten Class-B addressable Initiating Device Circuits (IDC) which monitor normally open contact initiating
devices; FlashScan or CLIP mode. This module is capable of participating in degraded mode where supported by the FACP.
1.6.2 Control Modules
Through these addressable modules, the control panel can selectively activate Notification Appliance Circuits (NAC).
•
FCM-1 Control Module; FlashScan or CLIP mode. (Earlier monitor modules named CMX-1 and CMX-2 were CLIP mode only.)
•
FCM-1-REL Control Module for releasing applications; FlashScan mode only. CLIP mode operation will generate a trouble
message at the panel.
•
XP5-C Acts as a NAC or a speaker/telephone circuit (Class B only) or a Form-C relay. FlashScan capable. (See the XP5 Series
Manual.)
•
XP6-C Controls six NAC or speaker/telephone circuits; FlashScan or CLIP mode.
•
FTM-1 Firephone Control Module; FlashScan-only device for use with Fire Fighters Telephone on NFS-320, NFS2-640, NFS-640,
NFS-3030, and NFS2-3030. (See the Voice Alarm System Manual, the DVC Manual, or the DAA2/DAX Manual.)
1.6.3 Isolator Modules
Isolator Modules permit a short-circuited section of the SLC to be fault isolated from the remainder of the SLC loop, allowing critical
components to function in the event of a circuit fault. Isolator modules are required to meet the requirements of an NFPA Style 7 circuit.
•
ISO-X Loop Fault Isolator Module; FlashScan or CLIP mode.
•
ISO-6 Six Fault isolator module provides six equivalent circuits that allow a portion of the communications loop to continue
operating when a short circuit occurs on that loop.
