Networking All talk - Selective listen Network up to 15 active nodes + 17 passive nodes Nexus/Discovery panels, network repeaters, R3 19” racks, Alarm Manager graphics systems Conventional panels, extinguishant panels and other equipment via network repeater and/or loop I/O Full event and cause/effect programming across network No “Master panel” or P.C. required and therefore no single point of failure RS485 data comms

Typical Network Illustration Up to 31 programmable expansion boards (8 programmable relays/alarms and 8 programmable inputs). Engineer’s programming via PC. RS485 network comms. Network repeater with up to 128 programmable inputs and 128 programmable outputs. RS485 comms to panel repeaters.

Network Repeater Up to 31 8-way panel enhancement boards may be added to the Integra Network Repeater. All inputs and outputs are programmable across the network. Two types are available: 1) fully-programmable inputs and relay outputs 2) fully-programmable inputs and alarm outputs Up to 31 8-way panel enhancement boards may be added to the Integra Network Repeater. All inputs and outputs are programmable across the network. Two types are available: 1) fully-programmable inputs and relay outputs 2) fully-programmable inputs and alarm outputs A typical application shows the 8 way boards linked to fireman's controls, LED’s, alarm sounders and plant shut down. The LCD provides user and engineer facilities. Devices may be isolated across the network via this network repeater.

Alarm Manager - Graphics System The Alarm Manager system is designed as a user-friendly tool to view and manage a potentially complex fire situation. The system is fully capable of being configured on-site by a suitably qualified engineer. Once the system has been configured, the PC keyboard is no longer required. Event map pages and user buttons will appear on the screen as necessary to manage the particular event currently taking place. Therefore the end user who may not be technically minded will still be able to operate the system on a daily basis. The slide entitled “Typical Fire Event Screen” and onwards show examples of the end user screens. All system’s management functions are protected via up to 7 different password levels.

Standby Banner This standby banner message reflects the current status of the alarm manager. The user-definable message options are allocated for normal, isolated and printer off-line situations. Text fonts, sizes and colours may be configured as required.

Configuration Options Menu This menu is accessible via password protection for system configuration.

Creating & Editing Map Pages This view shows currently available maps on the system for editing or for making new maps.

Editing Text Messages This screen shows the process for selecting the required text for editing.

Editing Text Messages This view shows the detail of definable text messages for sensors on panel 1 loop 1.

Allocating Maps to Alarm Sources This shows a list of currently available map pages. This shows the list of sensors on panel 1 loop 1. Selecting the required device and page number and then double clicking on the appropriate map will allocate that map to that alarm source.

The Map Allocation Help Page This view shows an example of on-line help.

Editing a Map Maps files are stored as Windows bitmaps and may be edited within Windows.

Placing Alarm Sources on a Map This view shows an example of allocating alarm source devices to a symbol. The symbol is then dragged and dropped into place over the map. Symbols will change colour, depending upon the nature of the event and may be allocated to single alarm source devices or groups.

Linking Networks Up to 3 networks may report into one PC. Each network may contain up to 15 active nodes and 17 passive nodes. (An active node is a device which sends information into the network; a passive node is a listen-only device.) Up to 3 networks may report into one PC. Each network may contain up to 15 active nodes and 17 passive nodes. (An active node is a device which sends information into the network; a passive node is a listen-only device.)

Configuring User Controls This facility determines which buttons are available to the user in an event condition.

Configuring User Controls The cancel option (clear display after an event) may be configured by the options above shown.

Configuring Sound Response Types The engineer may select the desired sound.

Configuring Banner Fonts This standby banner message reflects the current status of the alarm manager. The user-definable message options are allocated for normal, isolated and printer off-line situations. This standby banner message reflects the current status of the alarm manager.

Configuring Text Parameters This facility determines the technical content of the text information displayed in an event condition.

Configuring System Responses Selecting an item from the Message Types menu will enable the user to edit the priority level and response of any given device on the network.

Configuring System Responses This view shows the selection of sensor conditions from the previous illustration. The installer will then select a network node, followed by a loop number, then a device number and then allocate its status.

Configuring System Responses This is an additional screen for selecting the printer and historic log configurations.

Isolation Groups Devices on the network may be allocated into groups for user-friendly isolate purposes. Setting up such groups enables the regular isolation and de-isolation of groups of devices in areas such as hotel reception rooms, night clubs or where smoky industrial processes may produce false alarms.

Setting up such groups enables the regular isolation and de-isolation of groups of devices in areas such as hotel reception rooms, night clubs or where smoky industrial processes may produce false alarms.

Isolation Groups This view shows the process of building a group of devices.

Response Printouts The system configuration may be printed for hard copy record purposes.

Response Summary This view shows a summary help page detailing the colour, priority and a description of the event responses.

Password Set-up Up to six levels of password may be incorporated. Level 1 allows an operator basic user access only. Level 5 allows full system and set-up configuration. Level 6 is reserved for password editing authority. Up to six levels of password may be incorporated. Level 1 allows an operator basic user access only.

Typical Fire Event Screen This is a mouse or touch-screen driven system that does not require keyboard after set-up. Instantly accessible current event log. Site procedure pages instantly accessible and determined by nature of the event. The event location. User controls appear as context-relative buttons to simplify event management. Up to 5 map pages may be allocated for each individual device on the network. Map pages may be used for drawings or specific operator instructions as required.

Using On-Screen Event Buttons This screen shows a plan view “zoom in”. The user may select any available map page at the press of a button.

“Zooming In” Page 3 here has been used to show an elevation view.

The Procedure Pages The procedure pages are especially helpful where temporary or contract security staff are employed. This is an illustration showing one of 5 global procedure pages that are allocated to each event as prioritised within the configuration menu.

The Recent Events Log The log enables a manager to review and analyse recent or live events before the system is cleared.

The Historic Log The historic log enables the manager to view past events.
