SECTION 3: CONTROLLER OPERATION
3.1 FS7-130-SX / -SX2 Controller with FS7-2173 Detectors
The FS7-130-SX Controllers do NOT have an ON/OFF switch.
The Controller turns ON when
the external 24 VDC Power is turned on. When the Controller is powered up for the first time,
the FS7-2173 Detector’s Green LED will illuminate briefly and then blink every 10 seconds to
verify operational readiness. The FS7-130-SX Controller’s Green LED blinks ON and OFF
during power up sequence and turns ON continuously during NORMAL Operation.
3.2 Configuring the Controller and Detectors
3.2.1
Using the FSC SX Software
Configuring the FS7-130
-
SX Controller and Detectors requires using PC computer
with the included FSC SX Software Program. To use the SX Software Program,
refer to “PC Computer User’s Guide” for the SX Software, FSC Document
MNPC001.
3.3 System Operating Modes
3.3.1
POWER ON
In POWER ON Normal Operation, the Controller is ready to detect fires and report
Faults. The Green POWER ON LED is continuously ON and the 2 Yellow Fault and
4 Red Zone LEDs are OFF.
3.3.2
Fault
During a Fault condition:
•
Yellow
LED blinks ON and OFF for COMM (communication) Faults. The
COMM Fault
LED is the first yellow LED closest to the green POWER ON LED.
This LED will blink ON and OFF a group of flashes every 5 seconds. The
number of ON/OFF flashes in the group corresponds to the Zone number of the
COMM Fault. (For example, if the COMM Fault LED blinks ON two times in
succession every 5 seconds, the COMM Fault is with a Detector in Zone 2.) If
the LED stays on continuously, a COMM Fault is in more than one Zone.
•
Yellow
SYSTEM Fault
LED (the second yellow LED closest to the red Zone 1
LED) is continuously ON
•
The event is recorded in the Fault Event History file, and
•
The Fault relay is de-energized.
Where possible, the Fault condition is self-resetting; i.e. if the action causing the
Fault is remedied, then the Controller will stop reporting a Fault.
If a COMM Fault occurs in a FS System 7, it generally is the result of the following:
•
failure in the FireBus
II
wiring, such as a severed or damaged cable,
•
loose terminations at the Controller terminal strip,
•
damaged connector.
If a SYSTEM Fault occurs in a FS System 7, it generally is the result of the
following:
•
System's internal self-checking reported a hardware failure in one of the
Detectors,
System problem has been encountered such as a broken relay coil.
