SIMPLICITY PLUS INSTALLATION MANUAL.
1.INTRODUCTION
THIS FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL IS CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT AND MUST BE EARTHED
This equipment must be installed and maintained by a qualified and technically experienced person.
1.1 HANDLING THE PCBS
If the PCBs are to be removed to ease fitting the enclosure and cables, care must be taken to avoid
damage by static.
The best method is to wear an earth strap, but touching any earth point (eg building plumbing) will help to
discharge any static. Hold PCBs by their sides, avoiding contact with any components.
Always handle PCBs by their sides and avoid touching the legs of any components. Keep the PCBs away from
damp dirty areas, e.g. in a small cardboard box.
1.2 USING THIS MANUAL
This manual explains, in a step-by-step manner, the procedure for the installation of the Simplicity Plus Range

GLT.MAN-108 (USER MANUAL, MAINTENANCE GUIDE & LOG BOOK). It also contains a System set-up
table, and Installation Certificate, that must be completed by the Commissioning Engineer prior to system
handover.
Unlike the User Manual, this Installation Manual must not be left accessible to the User.
1.3 ABOUT THE SIMPLICITY FIRE ALARM PANEL & INTEGRAL PSE
•
The SIMPLICITY Fire alarm control panel is a one
loop analogue addressable Fire Alarm Control
Panel, with the loop split into 4 or 8 Zones.
•
It has a set of terminals to drive a 24V fire relay-
allows user to select appropriate relay for their
application.
•
It has a set of terminals to drive a 24V fault relay-
allows user to select appropriate relay for their
application. This output is normally powered to
allow a fault signal in the case of total power failure.
•
It has a class change connection to allow remote
activation of the sounders. (not required by EN54-
2)
•

addressable sounders.
•
It has a one man test mode, which resets the zone
in test after 8 seconds.(EN54 option with
requirements)
•
It has a maximum battery capacity of 7 Ah.
1.4 DESIGNING THE SYSTEM
This manual is not designed to teach Fire Alarm System design. It is assumed that the System has been
designed by a competent person, and that the installer has an understanding of Fire Alarm System components
and their use.
We strongly recommend consultation with a suitably qualified, competent person regarding the design of the Fire
Alarm System. The System must be commissioned and serviced in accordance with our instructions and the
relevant National Standards. Contact the Fire Officer concerned with the property at an early stage in case he
has any special requirements.
If in doubt, read BS 5839: Pt 1: 2002 "Fire Detection and Alarm Systems for buildings (Code of Practice for
System Design, Installation, commissioning and maintenance)" available from the BSI, or at your local reference
library.
