    INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL 2. FIRST FIX All wiring must be installed to meet BS5839: Pt1: 2002 and BS 7671 (Wiring Regs) standards. Other National standards of fire alarm system installation should be adhered to where applicable. 2.1 RECOMMENDED CABLE TYPES AND THEIR LIMITATIONS Screened cables should be used throughout the installation to help shield the Panel from outside interference and ensure EMC compatibility.

Other makes of detector will have different connections, but in general they are wired +IN & +OUT to same terminal, -IN to stripe side of continuity diode, -OUT to non-stripe side of continuity diode. Some makes will connect the +ve to a 470R load resistor, or a polarisation diode, to enable the detector to work correctly.

    INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL 5. FIELD DEVICE TERMINATION 5.1 TERMINATING THE DETECTION AND ALARM (SOUNDER) CIRCUITS All cables entering the enclosure should use cable glands. The Detector and Sounder circuits should be connected to the appropriate connector block on the Termination PCB as shown in Figure 6 below. All screens should be fed through the gland to make electrical contact with it, and be terminated at the brass earthing strip as shown below (see Figure 6) (For detailed detector and alarm circuit wiring diagrams, please refer to pages 6 and 7.)

    INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL 6. SOUNDER ACTIVATION DELAY 6.1 DECIDING TO USE A DELAY A delay of up to ten minutes from the Fire Alarm Panel being triggered, to its Alarm sounder outputs being activated, can be programmed into the panel by the Engineer. This is a particularly useful feature for schools, nightclubs and other public places where the nuisance and panic caused by a false alarm must be avoided.

    INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL 7. ZONE DISABLEMENT 7.1 WHY USE ZONE DISABLEMENT To aid commissioning and assist routine maintenance checks, any of the zones or the sounder circuits can be disabled. When a zone (or sounder cct) is disabled, the panel will not respond to any fault or fire signals it receives from that zone. This might be used if the system requires routine maintenance, and the customer needs the system to continue running, but doesn’t want...

    INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL 8. ZONE TEST 8.1 WHY USE ZONE TEST To aid commissioning and assist routine maintenance check, a non-latching ‘one man test’ facility is available. When a detector or manual call point is triggered on any zone in Test, the Alarm sounders operate for approximately five seconds on and seven seconds off.

    INFINITY 8 INSTALLATION MANUAL 9. GENERAL FAULT FINDING 9.1 ZONE FAULTS To assist in fault finding, the infinity panel will display zone faults as follows. The general fault LED will flash if a fault is present. On the first flash, any zones showing O/C will flash. The second time the General fault LED flashes, any zones with a Short Circuit fault will flash in conjunction with the General S/C LED.

    If working on an existing installation, check that the devices are polarised. (See Page 5) Check cable continuity (remove from panel and measure continuity. Should read 10K The Infinity 8 panel uses resettable fuses, which 'open' in the event of a fault, and reset when the fault clears. They do not need replacing.
