PREMIER AD INSTALLATION MANUAL.
8. DESIGNING THE SYSTEM & CONFIGURING THE FACP
Configuring the premier AD is a fairly straightforward matter. It just takes a bit of thought to
zone allocation during the system design stage.
1. Decide on the zone allocation for the system. Each zone can have a maximum of 16
devices fitted. Consider the simplified 3-storey building below.
2. If loop controlled sounders are to be used, decide if they should operate zonally, or
common. If zonal operation is required, then they should have addresses within the zone
that contains the detectors that will activate them. If the loop sounders are to be common,
then they should be addressed within a zone that contains only output devices. (In the
example above, zone 8 could be used for common loop sounders: address 113 to 126,
which allows 14 devices)
Note: The cabling can be the same whatever method is used. The devices DO NOT have
to be numbered sequentially on the loop. It can be changed from one method to the other,
provided there are free addresses to change the sounder's zones.
3 After the system has been installed, and the cabling
checked and the addresses of each device set, connect
the loops to the fire alarm panel and power up the system
(mains & batteries). It should say "system normal, and only
the green Power LED will be lit. There will be the letter
"B" in the bottom left hand corner. This stands for Benign,
or controls OFF.
4. Turn the keyswitch to the Controls Enabled Position.
The Letter "B" will now change to an "A", for controls
Active.
5. Enter the access code 3 6 9. This will take you to the
configuration menu. In this Menu there are options to
view loop contents, configure the panel, edit the device
message, or view the status of each device. The Covered
option will exit from the menu, and return the panel to
normal operation.
