INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
403-0002 Sita Manual Call Point
General Description
The Sita Manual Call Point allows for user activation of the fire alarm system. Once
operated the device latches into the alarm position and requires manually resetting via a
special key. This is an addressable unit that attaches to the loop. Digital communication
technology to the control panel is implemented allowing for accurate data transfer at high
transmission speeds. This device is only compatible with the Sita200plus, Duonet and
Quadnet range of control panel.
Before Installation
The MCP must be installed in compliance with the control panel installation
manual. The installation must also meet the requirements of any local authority.
For maximum performance the call point should be installed in compliance to
BS5839 Pt1 : 2002 + A2 : 2008.
Spacing
Fike recommends spacing of call points in accordance with BS5839 Pt1 2002.
For more specific information regarding MCP spacing, placement and special
applications please refer to BS5839 Pt1 : 2002 + A2 : 2008.
Device Installation
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the recommendations laid out by BS5839 Pt1 : 2002 as well as any
special recommendations documented in the control panel installation manual. The cabling used should be of a
2
2-core 1.5mm screened, fire resistant type, and is to be wired in the form of a screened 2-core loop
returning to the control panel. The use of spurs on this system is not permitted. Cables may be terminated
into the connectors, as shown below. If the device is flush mounted then the loop cabling must be attached to the
device via a suitable connection block (not supplied). Care should be taken when terminating devices to ensure all
cables are correctly sleeved and connections are secure. Improper connections will prevent a system from
responding properly in the event of a fire.
Terminal Description
RED Loop +Ve IN
YELLOW Loop +Ve OUT
BLUE Loop -Ve IN and OUT
E Screen IN and OUT
The Loop IN +Ve (positive) and the Loop OUT +Ve (positive) connections are split within the module, for cable
continuity readings at the commissioning stage they must be temporarily removed and connected through. Please
remember that all high voltage testing must be carried out before the installation of the electronics, otherwise the
electronics will be damaged. Please also note that the E terminal should only be connected to the loop screen and
NOT to the building earth.
Once all testing has been carried out on the cabling and continuity & insulation has been proven, the MCP can be
connected.
Before installing the MCP remember to note the serial number of the device (located on the rear of the unit) on to
your drawings or configuration sheets to enable you to prove its location later. The address allocation for the device
is carried out automatically by the control panel whilst in initialisation mode, so addresses do not need to be set
manually. See the system Installation and Operating Instructions for further details.
