against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission

systems are recommended.

The most common causeof fire alarm malfunction is

inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire fire alarm

system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance

is required per the manufacturer's recommendations.

Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt or high air

velocity require more frequent maintenance. A

maintenance agreement should be arranged through the

local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should

be scheduled or as required by National and/or local fire

codes and should be performed by authorized professional

fire alarm installers only. Adequate written records of all

inspections should be kept.

Installation Precautions

Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:

Several different sources of power can be

connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnectall

sources of power before servicing. Control unit and

associated equipment may be damaged by removing

and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables

while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service,

or operate this unit until this manual is read and

understood.

System Reacceptin g Test after Software

Changes. To ensure proper system operation, thisproduct

must be tested after any programming operation or change

in site-specific software.

All components, circuits, system operations, or software

functions known to be affected by a change must be 100%

tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not

inadvertently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that

are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of

50 devices, must also be tested and proper system

operation verified.

Verify that w ire sizes are adequate for all initiating and

indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more

than a 10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may

operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to

lightning-induced transients. Although no system is

completely immune from lightning transients and

interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility.

Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended,

due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes.

Consult with the Technical Services Department if any

problems are anticipated or encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing

or inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage

circuits.

Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling,

filing, reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When

possible,

make all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making

modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery,

transformer, and printed circuit board location.

can also be programmed off-line when using a PC with Notifier Verifire Tools

(NVT).

The N-6000 fire alarm control panel has many intelligent characteristics; these

include but are not limited to drift compensation, sensitivity adjustment andself-optimizing alarm.

The N-6000 control panel with CBE (control by event) control can manage both

alarm paging and gas extinguishing systems. The N-6000 connected with a CRT

display terminal forms a comprehensive and reliable fire alarm control system,

perfect for medium to large-scale facilities.

2.2Characteristics of the Product

Large LCD Display

This system uses a large 320x240 pixel LCD display. To ensure accurate and

timely detection the LCD displays a full Chinese interface (up to 320 Chinese

characters), equipment type, location, alarm level, loop number and address

number upon alarming.

User Friendly Interface

The Menu contains all programming options. Software supports both English and

Chinese input, full suggest and user friendly dialogue prompts. A user can

conveniently toggle between the alarm information and CBE information screens.

Convenient Programming Options

Multilevel pre-alarm and alarm sensitivity enable localizing detector sensitivity for

different applications. Have the function of trouble disenable also can choose to

disenable any addressing unit in loop bus. Auto programming allows the N-6000

to learn what devices are physically connected and automatically load them in

the program with default values for all parameters. The functions mentioned above

significantly ease system operation while reducing daily maintenance.

3.6Equipment Debugging

3.6.1Connection Inspection

Visually inspect the control panel condition

Visually inspect the external connection ports

Open the control panel and visually inspect all connections. Confirm connectionsare correct, that there are no loose connections, no short circuits, unplugged or


25/68

disconnected connectors as well as confirm the power supply does not have

any short circuit trouble.

Visually inspect the jumpers in the circuit to confirm there are no duplicatenumbers.

3.6.2Power-on Inspection

After you have finished the visual inspection, power-on the battery power supply.

With the battery started a buzzer should be heard and the LCD should temporarily

function normally. Once the control panel enters normal operation status, a buzzer

and LED horn/strobe will indicate a troubled status because main power is not

connected. Power-down and disconnect the battery power supply then connect and

power on the main power supply. Once the control panel enters normal operation

status, a buzzer and LED horn/strobe will indicate a troubled status because the

battery power supply is not connected. At this time, connect the battery power

supply. Soon after the control panel will return to normal operating status.

During normal operation, if both the main and battery power supplies are

connected the power supply status lamp (on the main panel of the control panel)

will maintain normal illumination.

When the main power supply fails because of loss of power, poor power

connection, an over-voltage or under-voltage of 5V and 24V, or a short circuit with

rack earth and communication trouble with the mainframe, the power supply status

lamp (on main panel of the control panel) illumination will stop. Then both a

buzzer and LED horn/strobe will indicate a troubled status while additional

information will be shown on the control panel LCD.

3.6.3External Connection

Look for any short-circuits or disconnections to and from the control panel. Once

everything has been inspected, connect the control panel.

Batch installation -- connecting 10-20 detectors or modules on the loop per time --

is highly recommended. After installing the detectors or modules restart the control

panel to ensure the newly installed devices are recognized and installed correctly.

If the control panel gives a trouble signal recheck the circuit and addressable

devices are installed properly. Once the trouble signal has been solved, continuebatch installation and power testing. After all the devices have been installed, the

simulated trouble, fire alarm and CBE event functions maybe tested. Confirm that

the control panel alarms normally, properly links field equipment and accurately

prints corresponding alarm information. Continue testing and adjusting until panel

maintains normal operating status.

3.6.4Important Points

Avoid touching the circuit board IC chip during installation

Pay attention to polarity during connection and installation


26/68

Before starting the system, check for short circuits, disconnection or reversepolarity

Connectors among leads shall be wielded and inter-line insulation shall beguaranteed.

3.6.5Inspection Methods for Addressable Device

Connections

To test the function of the multi-meter, connect the loop in reverse polarity (the

positive pole connects with the loop negative and the negative pole connects with

the loop positive). The multi-meter should indicate a bias value for the diode.

Then connect the multi-meter normally (positive pole connects with the loop

positive and negative pole connects with the loop negative). The multi-meter

should indicate a low resistance value that increases with the charging of the loop

capacitor. If after proper polarity connection the multi-meter still indicates a biasvalue for the diode, there is one or more addressable device(s) connected in reverse

polarity.
