6 Introduction This manual applies to the Protec 6500 and 6600 fire alarm control panels however for convenience; reference will be made only to the Everything in this manual applies to both the 6500 and 6600 unless stated otherwise. The Protec 6500 Fire Alarm Control Panel has been designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom and complies fully with the latest standards dictating fire alarm system design practice (EN54-2: A1:2006 and EN54-4: A1: A2:2006). The 6500 is a multi-zone four loop fire alarm control panel that uses digital addressable technology to communicate with Protec 6000PLUS series loop devices (automatic detectors, Manual Call Points, sounders, interfaces etc.). Multiple panels may be networked together to create a larger fire alarm system. As the integrity and reliability of a fire alarm system is vital, the system continuously monitors all critical paths for faults. The fire detection / alarm loop devices and wiring are constantly monitored to check for faults. The integrated power supply regularly performs self-checking to ensure it is in full working order and that the Stand-by batteries are in a good state. Any faults detected are reported on the front panel display, a fault output is also provided which may be connected to external systems (a remote monitoring centre, for example) to signal that the system has a fault and attention is required. The panel is wall mounted either flush or surface and the generously sized back box allows ample space for rear or top cable entries. This equipment and its associated connections must be installed, commissioned and maintained by a suitably trained skilled and competent person. This equipment is not guaranteed unless installed and commissioned in accordance with current national standards There are no user serviceable parts inside the A competent person trained to undertake such work MUST carry out any internal maintenance work. Separate installation and commissioning manuals are available. RDM0001/3_2 Page 6 of Protec Fire Detection plc

8 1.0 User Responsibilities The registered owner of the fire alarm system has specific responsibilities regarding the installation, testing and maintenance of the fire alarm system. BS5839 Pt 1: 2017 Section 6 states that the user of the fire alarm system must appoint a single named person to supervise all matters regarding the fire alarm system. Summarised below are the responsibilities expected of the named person, It is strongly advised that a full copy of BS5839 Pt 1: 2017 is obtained and thoroughly read and understood. 1.1 Requirements of the Premises Management Named Person Ensure that the fire alarm equipment is checked at least once every 24 hours to ensure there are no faults on the system. Report any faults to the site maintenance manager. Ensure that arrangements are in place for correct testing of the fire alarm system (as specified in BS5839 Pt 1: 2017 Section 6, the user testing is summarised in section 2.0 of this document). Ensure that the system event log is kept up to date and is available for inspection by any authorised person when required. Ensure that all occupants of the protected premises are trained how to use the system properly and that they are aware of what action to take in the event of an alarm. Ensure that false alarms are minimised. Ensure all detectors and manual call points are not obstructed. Detectors must have at least 500mm clear space preserved in all directions around them. Establish a liaison with those responsible for changes in, or maintenance of the building fabric. Ensure that when changes are made to the system, record drawings and operating instructions are updated. Ensure that, where necessary, a suitable zone plan is displayed and kept up to date. Ensure that any relevant spare parts for system maintenance are held within the premises. RDM0001/3_2 Page 8 of Protec Fire Detection plc

9 2.0 Routine Testing of the System Recommendations for testing of the system are detailed in BS5839 Pt 1: 2017 (Section 6) The routine testing is briefly detailed below. 2.1 Daily Inspection Check that the Power indicator is illuminated. Check for any faults on the system and report these to the site maintenance manager. 2.2 Weekly Test Perform the daily test recommended in 2.1 and; During the test you may wish to temporarily place the zone to be tested into test mode (Consult section 13) Perform an indicator test (lamp test) to check the integrity of the front panel indications, and internal buzzer. Ensure no Manual Call Points or detectors are obstructed. Operate a Manual Call Point or detector during normal working hours to ensure the fire alarm system operates correctly. A different Manual Call Point or detector on a different zone should be tested each week, in this way all the devices on all the zones are tested. Ensure the system sounders are operational. Ensure the sounders are not operated for longer than 30 seconds during testing. The occupants of the building can then distinguish genuine alarms. 2.3 Monthly Test Perform the weekly test recommended in 2.2 and; If an automatic generator is used as part of the mains failure back-up system it should be started up once each month by simulated failure of the normal power supply, and then run in this mode for at least 1 hour. Visually inspect the stand-by batteries and their connections. Check that the batteries are capable of supplying the alarm sounders. Note:- Care is necessary to ensure that any person undertaking these tasks is competent to do so safely and has the relevent technical knowledge and training RDM0001/3_2 Page 9 of Protec Fire Detection plc

11 4.0 Indications and Controls Each panel has a comprehensive front panel display enabling the current state of the system to be rapidly determined. Figure 5.0 shows the indications and controls. Figure 5.0 Front panel indications and controls. 4.1 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) The LCD gives a clear indication of the current status of the panel. Under normal conditions the LCD shows the System Normal screen. This screen changes to the status display screen if the panel has fires, faults, disablements or tests present. 4.2 General Indications These are the General Fire, Fault, Disablement and Test indicators. These give clear indication that the panel has at least one Fire, Fault, Disablement or Test condition. It is possible for the panel to indicate multiple conditions simultaneously. 4.3 Status Indications These provide important fault and status information at a glance without having to search for it on the LCD. 4.4 Zone Indications The zone in fire is always indicated on the LCD however if the fire occurs in one of the first 100 zones (40 zones on a standalone panel) then it is also indicated by the zone indicator flashing red. If the user touches Accept then the zone indicator will remain on but stop flashing. RDM0001/3_2 Page 11 of Protec Fire Detection plc

12 5.0 Fire Indications The panel displays fire information on the LCD along with the General Fire indicator and the relevant zone indicators. The following sections detail the meaning of each indicator. 5.1 General Fire Indicator Illuminated The panel has detected a fire on one of its zones, or has been activated from another panel via the network. The building fire plan should be executed immediately 5.2 Zone Indicator Flashing Red The panel has detected a fire in the zone shown. The General Fire indicator will always accompany this and the internal buzzer will be fast pulsing. RDM0001/3_2 Page 12 of Protec Fire Detection plc

13 6.0 Fault Indications When the panel has detected a fault in any of the critical operating paths of the system it will display this on the LCD. The internal buzzer will also pulse slowly. The General Fault indicator will be illuminated and is always accompanied by other indicator(s) detailing the exact fault. In general, fault indicators flash until the fault is accepted (by touching the Accept button) the fault indicator then illuminates steadily and the internal buzzer will be muted. Further faults activate the buzzer again. In the event of any fault the following action should be taken:- Investigate the fault, and then accept the fault by touching the Accept button. Note the fault down in the Logbook and take action to remedy the fault. In all cases expert advice should be sought. When the fault has been rectified the fault indicator will automatically extinguish. Note: - Some faults latch and once rectified must be cleared by pressing Reset. Any faults that have not been fixed will reappear. The following sections give descriptions of each fault indication 6.1 System Fault The panel performs regular self-tests to ensure the software is working correctly. If a fault is detected in software operation a System Fault is declared. This is a latching fault and can only be cleared by touching Clear System Fault. If the fault is still present it will then reappear. 6.2 Alarm Fault A fault has been detected on one or more of the alarm devices connected to the loop or on one of the sounder circuits. One or more alarm devices may no longer operate correctly. 6.3 Power Fault A fault has been detected in the panel s power supply. This may be because the local mains supply has failed or because the internal stand-by batteries or circuitry are faulty. 6.4 Aux. Supply Fault A fault has been detected with the Auxiliary 24V supply output of the panel. There may no longer be an auxiliary supply to external devices or the auxiliary devices are drawing too much current. The General Fault indicator will be illuminated accompanied by the Aux Supply Fault indicator. RDM0001/3_2 Page 13 of Protec Fire Detection plc

14 6.5 Network Fault A fault has been detected on the network connecting the panels together. 6.6 Fire link Fault A fault has been detected on the monitored fire link path. This may be a wiring fault or a fire link interface fault. The connection to the fire station link is no longer reliable. Expert advice should be sought immediately. 6.7 Fire Protection Fault A fault has been detected on the monitored path to fire protection equipment. This may be a wiring fault or a fire protection interface fault. The connection to the fire protection equipment is no longer reliable. Expert advice should be sought immediately. RDM0001/3_2 Page 14 of Protec Fire Detection plc

15 7.0 Disablement Indications When a user has disabled a critical feature of the system it will display this on the LCD. The internal buzzer will also pulse slowly. The General Disablement indicator will be illuminated and is always accompanied by other indicator(s) detailing the exact disablement. In general, the buzzer will sound for disablements until the disablement is accepted (by touching the Accept button). Further disablements activate the buzzer again. The following sections give descriptions of each disablement indication 7.1 Alarms Disabled Activation of outputs designated as alarm outputs is prevented. The sounders will not operate in the event of a fire. 7.2 Alarm Routing (Fire link) Disabled Activation and faults on the alarm routing output are inhibited. The fire link will not activate in the event of a fire. 7.3 Fire Protection Disabled Activation and faults on the fire protection equipment output are inhibited. The fire protection equipment output will not activate in the event of a fire. RDM0001/3_2 Page 15 of Protec Fire Detection plc

16 8.0 Other Indications 8.1 Power 8.2 Test This indication illuminates when the panel is powered up from mains or batteries. This indication illuminates when part or the whole of the panel is in test mode. 8.3 Alarm Routing (Fire Link) Operated This indication is illuminated when the fire link path has been activated on this panel. This does not confirm that the fire event has been sent to a remote monitoring centre unless the confirmation input option has been programmed and the receiving equipment supports this confirmation feature. 8.4 Fire Protection Operated This indication is illuminated when the fire protection equipment path has been activated. This does not confirm that the fire event has been sent to the fire protection equipment unless the confirmation input option has been programmed and the receiving equipment supports this confirmation feature. 8.5 Outputs Delayed This indicator will be illuminated if the commissioning engineer has programmed the system in a manner that will delay the alarm outputs, the fire link activation or the fire protection equipment output if the system detects a fire signal. The alarms, fire link or fire protection equipment output may not activate immediately in the event of a fire. RDM0001/3_2 Page 16 of Protec Fire Detection plc

17 9.0 System Delays Delays may have been programmed into the panel at commissioning time to allow a predetermined delay time from a zone activation until:- The alarm outputs activate The fire link activates The fire protection equipment output activates Delays may be used in order to allow time for the cause of the activation to be investigated by the premises management. If the cause of the activation is found to be legitimate the alarm outputs can be manually activated. If the cause of the activation is found to be false the system can be silenced and reset. The system set-up chart must be consulted to determine exactly which outputs have been delayed, how the delay time has been set up and what action is taken if the Silence button is touched before a delay has expired. In general, delays only apply to automatic detector activations whilst a manual activation on a zone (Activating a Manual Call Point) overrides delays. RDM0001/3_2 Page 17 of Protec Fire Detection plc

18 10.0 Coincidence/Dependency Operation At the time of commissioning, the system may have been programmed to operate in one of three coincidence modes where a confirmation signal is required. The confirmation signal is normally the same or a second device generating a fire signal. Mode C is the standard coincidence mode used in Protec fire alarm systems. Coincidence operation is used to minimise the effects of false alarms by providing time to investigate the first fire signal and if found to be an unwanted activation, prevent a full evacuation of the premises and an unnecessary call to the fire brigade. Mode A, also known as Dependency/Coincidence Type A indicates the zone in alarm and sounds the panel buzzer, however it does not light the general fire led and activate the outputs unless there is a confirmation signal from the same device or an automatic device in the same zone. Mode B, also known as Dependency/Coincidence Type B indicates the zone in alarm and sounds the panel buzzer, however it does not light the general fire led and activate the outputs unless there is a confirmation signal from the same device or an automatic device in any zone. Mode C, also known as Coincidence/Dependency Type C indicates the fire alarm as normal but does not activate any outputs until there is a confirmation signal from another device (manual or automatic) in any zone or a programmed timeout expires. In general, coincidence only applies to automatic detector activations whilst a manual activation on a zone (Activating a Manual Call Point) overrides coincidence. RDM0001/3_2 Page 18 of Protec Fire Detection plc

19 11.0 Response to an Alarm 11.1 Automatic Detection If a detector (smoke, heat etc.) activates in a zone of the panel this is known as an automatic activation. The panel responds by; Illuminating the General Fire indicator. Flashing the relevant zone fire indicator and displaying on the LCD. Fast pulsing of the internal buzzer. Activating alarm outputs as programmed, after any delays have expired. Activating the Fire Link output after any programmed delays have expired. Activating the Fire Protection equipment output after any programmed delays have expired Manual Detection If a Manual Call Point is operated in the zone of a panel this is known as manual activation. The panel responds by; Illuminating the General Fire indicator. Flashing the relevant zone fire indicator and displaying on the LCD. Fast pulsing of the internal buzzer. Activating alarm outputs as programmed, after any delays have expired. Activating the Fire Link output after any programmed delays have expired. Activating the Fire Protection equipment output after any programmed delays have expired. It is usual to have no programmed delay for a manual activation Coincidence/Dependency Activation Please see section Silencing the Alarms Touching and holding Silence when logged in will silence the alarm outputs Resetting the panel after an Alarm After the cause of the alarm has been determined (and entered in the log by the authorised user) the panel can be reset if required. Manual Call Points, if triggered, must first be reset locally. When logged in, touch and hold reset. The panel will reset any latched devices on its loops. The Reset sequence takes about 20 seconds during which time the panel will not detect new fires. RDM0001/3_2 Page 19 of Protec Fire Detection plc

20 11.6 New Zone in Alarm If a new zone or a previously silenced zone goes into alarm, the panel will re-activate the alarms and re-sound the internal buzzer Activating the Alarms Manually Touch and hold Sound Alarms when logged in to evacuate the building. Output group types will be activated as programmed but the Control and Fire Link outputs WILL NOT be activated. If the sound alarms input is set to operate a fire link output this will create a design error. RDM0001/3_2 Page 20 of Protec Fire Detection plc

21 12.0 Status Display & Menu Navigation At any given time the system will be in one of three main states. These are the normal state, the fault / disablement / test state or the fire state The System Normal Display When the system does not have any fires, faults, disablements or tests it is in the System Normal state.
