Chapter 1 Overview Introduction The AutoPulse Z-10 (Part No. 430525) Fire Control Panel is a standalone Fire Control Panel for use with agent release and sprinkler preaction/deluge systems. This chapter provides an overview of the AutoPulse Z-10 s capabilities and operation. In this Chapter Refer to the page number listed in this table for information on a specific topic. Topic See Page # Overview Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge Systems 1-2 Supported Applications 1-3 Specifications 1-11 1-1
Overview Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge Systems Fire Suppression Systems Fire suppression systems control fire using agents such as dry chemical, CO 2, and INERGEN, etc. Each of these systems must be specifically designed and approved for use on a particular fire hazard. When the AutoPulse Z-10 is programmed as an agent release system, it controls releasing devices (also known as solenoids, actuators, etc.) that are connected to a set of storage tanks containing the agent. When alarm activation is detected, the AutoPulse Z-10 activates the releasing devices and discharges the extinguishing agent. Programming the AutoPulse Z-10 for agent release involves selecting one of the pre-programmed agent release applications pre-installed on the AutoPulse Z-10. Single hazard (single area) and dual hazard (two separate areas) programs are available, all of which support manual release, abort switches, and programmable delay timers. See the next section of this chapter for a complete description of each application. Preaction/Deluge Sprinkler Systems The most common type of preaction sprinkler system is the single interlock preaction system, which uses a two-phase process for actuating sprinkler heads. Phase 1. activation of an initiating device attached to the AutoPulse Z-10 causes the AutoPulse Z-10 to activate the releasing device attached to the sprinkler system s Primary Control Valve. When this valve is open, water flows into the sprinkler pipes, readying the sprinkler system for the possible activation of one or more sprinkler heads. This is known as preaction. Phase 2. Sprinkler head(s) open in response to a fire condition, releasing water onto the fire area. Special situations sometimes require the use of a double interlock preaction system, in which an automatic initiating device (smoke or heat detector) and a sprinkler head must operate simultaneously to initiate water flow. This differs from the single interlock system, where these two actions (initiating device and sprinkler head activation) can occur at different times. A deluge system uses open sprinklers. Activation of initiating devices releases a deluge valve, producing immediate water flow through all sprinklers. Deluge applications are typically found in special situations, where high-flow, water-based suppression is required. Combination Agent Release with Preaction/Deluge Backup In some areas of the country, Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) have started requiring building owners to protect critical electronic areas, normally covered only by Agent Release systems, with a combination of Agent Release (primary) and Preaction/Deluge (secondary) systems. This capability and configuration option is included in the AutoPulse Z-10. When the AutoPulse Z-10 is configured for the combination setting, it works just as one would expect an Agent Release panel to work a confirmed fire alarm or manual request starts the process and eventually results in the discharge of a suppression agent. In addition to Agent Release, the panel also starts the Preaction/Deluge process in parallel and takes the panel to Phase 1, as described in the Preaction/Deluge section above. If the Agent Release process is successful in extinguishing the fire, nothing else will happen. If, however, the fire is not knocked down, flares up and begins to grow, Phase 2 of the Preaction/Deluge process will ensue. Note: Preaction/Deluge for this application would typically be applied as Preaction only. However, the output control is the same as for Preaction/Deluge and both terms are used to describe the operation. 1-2
Supported Applications Pre-Programmed Applications The AutoPulse Z-10 ships from the factory with 13 applications installed in memory. Programming the panel involves selecting an application to use, as well as an option, such as NAC operation, manual and automatic delays, and/or other site-specific functions. The panels with software version 1, 2, or 3 have 9 applications. The panels with version 4.01 or higher have the 13 applications noted above. Table 1-1 lists the original 9 applications, along with the aux and expansion relay operation for those applications if the original relay operation is selected. The table also describes the operation of the Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) and Releasing Appliance Circuits (RACs), along with the functions of the four Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs) and two Special Purpose Monitor (SPM) circuits. Refer to Chapter 4 of this manual for detailed programming instructions. Table 1-2 lists all 13 applications with the aux and expanded relay operation if the enhanced relay operation is selected. The table also describes the operation of the NACs and RACs along with the functions of the four Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs) and two Special Purpose Monitor (SPM) circuits. Refer to Chapter 4 of this manual for detailed programming instructions. Note: Applications 10-13 use only the relay operation shown in Table 1-2. Continued on next page 1-3

Supported Applications, Continued Pre-Programmed Applications Important Notes: (NYC Abort Does not comply with UL864) Specific operation of the NYC Abort is as follows: Pressing the Abort switch does the following: a. Bell and bell strobe turn on (NAC1) b. Evacuation visuals turn off (NAC3) c. Evacuation audibles turn off (NAC2) d. Automatic Release Timer countdown stops at its current value. Releasing the Abort switch starts the 90-second Investigate Timer. When the Investigative Timer expires, the following occurs: a. Bell and bell strobe turn off (NAC1) b. Evacuation visuals turn on (NAC3) c. Evacuation audibles turn on at 120 BPM (NAC2) d. Reload the Automatic Release Timer with the programmed value Subsequently pressing/releasing the abort switch repeats the process (silencing the NACs, activating the bell, starting the 90 second investigation timer, etc.) until the Release Timer expires and the RAC(s) activate. Pressing/releasing the Abort switch while the Investigation Timer counts down has no effect (i.e., it will not reset the timer). Note: All other abort switch modes are discussed in Programming Abort Switch Operation in Chapter 4 of this manual. Continued on next page 1-7
Supported Applications, Continued Releasing Sequence for Single Detector Activation The applications that trigger the releasing sequence based on the activation of a single detector include all applications that do not use cross zoning (see Table 1-1 for a list of the available applications). As shown in the Figure 1-1, activation of a single initiating device immediately activates the Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) and starts an optional Automatic Release Delay Timer. This optional delay timer, which has a programmable range of zero to 60 seconds, delays the activation of the Releasing Appliance Circuits (RACs), thus delaying release of the agent. When the timer expires, the RACs activate, releasing the agent. Important Notes: The abort switch can be used only prior to the expiration of the delay timer. In application 11 RAC2 turns on immediately when an alarm is activated. This is the pre-action RAC. RAC1 turns on when the timer expires.

Supported Applications, Continued Releasing Sequence for Dual Detector Activation Cross-zoned applications require that two automatic initiating devices on different zones enter an alarm state before the releasing device(s) can activate. Figure 1-2 illustrates the automatic releasing sequence following activation of detectors on both zones. In the example, the first detector enters an alarm state, triggering the activation of the piezo, alarm relay, and the notification appliances (horns, bells, strobes, etc.) attached to NAC1 and NAC2. When the second detector enters an alarm state, the system starts an optional Automatic Release Delay Timer and changes the pattern of audible tones on NAC2 to a faster cadence (evacuation signal). When the timer expires, the cadence of the NACs changes to On Steady and the RACs activate. Important Notes: If the delay timer is set to 0, release immediately follows second (cross-zoned) alarm activation. The abort switch can be used only prior to the expiration of the delay timer. In application 10 RAC2 turns on immediately when the 2 nd alarm is brought in. This is the pre-action RAC. RAC1 turns on when the timer expires.

Supported Applications, Continued Releasing Sequence for Manual Release The manual releasing sequence begins following the activation of a manual release station connected to the AutoPulse Z-10 FACP. As shown in Figure 1-3, the NACs and the Manual Release Delay Timer turn on immediately after the switch is activated. Release of the agent occurs immediately after the timer expires. Note: The abort switch has no effect on the manual release sequence. In applications 10 and 11, Pre-action RAC2 turns on immediately.

Specifications, Continued Major Panel Components Component Manual Release / Abort Circuit (SPM1, SPM2) Pressure Switch Tamper Switch Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) Releasing Appliance Circuits (RAC) Relays Auxiliary Power User Interface Table 1-3. Major Panel Components (continued) Description Agent release systems use the Special Purpose Monitor (SPM1 and SPM2) circuits to connect manual release switches and abort switches. Applications 10 and 11 (agent release and Preaction/Deluge) use SPM1 for Abort/Manual and SPM2 for a pressure switch. Neither SPM circuit supports the connection of smoke detectors. Switches must be normally open. An activated release switch overrides the abort switch. The system tracks the abort switch status to detect the release of the switch. In a single hazard agent release system, IDC3 is reserved for use as a pressure switch monitor. In applications 10 and 11 (Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge) SPM2 is reserved for use as a pressure switch monitor. When used as a pressure switch monitor, a currentlimited or short circuit (non Style C) is interpreted as pressure switch activated, which then causes notification appliances to sound. The circuit is supervised for open circuits, and the panel generates a trouble if one occurs. No releasing circuits are activated when the pressure switch activates. In a single hazard, agent release system, IDC4 is reserved for use as a tamper switch monitor. This includes applications 10 and 11 (Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge). When used as a tamper switch monitor, a current-limited or short circuit (non Style C) is interpreted as tamper switch activated, which causes a supervisory condition to be generated. The system can be programmed to activate a NAC or relay in response to tamper switch activation. Two power-limited notification appliance circuits, each rated at 2A. NACs can play either steady or pulsing tones, allowing the AutoPulse Z-10 to generate distinct pre-discharge signals for agent release systems. Both circuits are power limited. Two circuits each rated at 2A. Releasing circuits operate simultaneously for single hazard systems and independently for dual hazard systems. In applications 10 and 11 RAC2 is a preaction RAC and will turn on before RAC1 unless the timer is set to 0. Both circuits are power-limited. Three on-board relays, each of which is selectable for either Normally Open or Normally Closed operation. Each relay is rated for 2A, 30 VDC, 0.35 power factor (inductive). Common trouble relay is normally energized. Off if a trouble occurs. For Single Hazard operation, Relay 2 is the common alarm relay and Relay 3 is programmable as common Time Delay Started or common Supervisory. For Dual Hazard operation, Relay 2 is for Hazard Area 1 common alarm and Relay 3 is common for Hazard Area 2 alarm. Three terminals: + terminal is 24 V, - terminal is 0V Steady, and R terminal (reset) is 0V with pulse on reset for 4-wire smokes. Combined rating is 750 ma for any combination of steady/pulsed. Red LEDs for each initiating device circuit and manual release circuit. Red LED to indicate agent release. Yellow Trouble LEDs for each initiating device circuit, notification appliance circuit, releasing appliance circuit, and abort and manual release circuit. Dedicated Silence, Supervisory, Abort Active, and Earth Fault Trouble LEDs. Green AC Power ON LED. Switches for Acknowledge, Silence, and Reset. Pressing all three simultaneously for five seconds disables notification appliance, releasing appliance, and relay circuits and causes a trouble to be displayed. All four notification appliance and releasing appliance trouble LEDs flash. Piezo. On trouble conditions, the piezo sounder is on steady to indicate that a trouble has occurred. It turns off when the Acknowledge key is pressed. On alarm conditions, the sounder pulses until the Acknowledge key is pressed. 1-12
Specifications, Continued Optional Modules The following optional modules are available for use with the AutoPulse Z-10. Part No. 430548 (120 VAC) and Part No. 430550 (240 VAC) External Battery Chargers. The AutoPulse Z-10 is compatible with Part No. 430548 and Part No. 430550 fifty Ah battery chargers. Refer to Part No. 431322 for information on these chargers. Part No. 430531 Class A Adapters. NACs, IDCs, and SPMs are configured for Class A operation using a Part No. 430531 Class A Adapter module. Refer to Part No. 431307 for information on installing and wiring these adapters. Part No. 430529 Relay Module. This module includes four relays, each driven by the AutoPulse Z-10. The relays operate as common relays, per hazard, and have two contacts (select N.O. or N.C.). Each relay is rated 7A at 120 VAC (resistive load), 5A at 30 VDC (0.35 power factor, inductive). A dual hazard system requires two modules. Refer to Part No. 431305 for information on installing and wiring this module. Optional relays are defined as follows: Relay 1. Activates on common trouble for its hazard (includes general panel troubles). Relay 2, 3, and 4 operation is determined by the application and whether original or enhanced relay operation is selected. The relay module includes a set of disconnect switches. The switches are used to disable operation of relays 2, 3, and 4 per hazard. A Relay Disconnected trouble LED indicates the disconnected state of the relays. The disconnect switch does not prevent trouble relays from indicating the system is experiencing an abnormal (fault) condition. Depleted Battery Operation The AutoPulse Z-10 system monitors the battery voltage and indicates a trouble status when the battery is outside its normal range. There are two battery trouble levels: Low Battery and Depleted Battery. When Low Battery is detected, the system sounds the piezo and flashes the trouble LED. The event must be acknowledged to silence the piezo. If discharge continues further, and the batteries reach the depleted state, the sounder activates and the trouble LED flashes again. If the system is running from battery backup, (AC has failed), and the batteries are depleted one of two scenarios occurs: The system will not initiate a first alarm on Aux Relays, NACs or RACs after reaching depleted battery. In this case, if an alarm precedes the depleted battery state, the system will continue to function. This is default. s will be indicated at the User Interface. The system will shut down 60 seconds after indicating the depleted state. This feature is necessary for Canada (S527). To activate this choice, a jumper must be clipped out. Refer to Wiring AC Power and Battery Wiring in Chapter 3 of this manual for information on enabling this option. If the AutoPulse Z-10 is installed in accordance with either NFPA 12A or NFPA 2001, the system must employ an additional mechanically-operated manual release mechanism. Environmental Temperature.

Cutting Conduit Openings Guidelines The AutoPulse Z-10 cabinet does not provide conduit knockouts. Cutting conduit openings must be done without the electronics assembly installed in the cabinet. Keep the following guidelines in mind when cutting conduit openings: Remove the electronics assembly before cutting conduit openings. Refer to Removing/Installing the Electronics Assembly, earlier in this chapter. Remove all metal shards from the cabinet after cutting openings. AC power (non-power limited) wiring must be run in separate conduit from all other wiring, as shown in the figure below. Non-power limited wiring must be separated from power limited wiring by a minimum of 1/4. Other non-power limited wiring from Aux Relays (i.e., 120 VAC) must be run in a separate conduit. Non-power limited wiring must be separated from power limited wiring by a minimum of 1/4. Conduits for NACs, IDCs, SPMs, RACs Non-Power Limited Area Only Figure 2-2. Conduit Locations, Front View 2-3
Mounting Cabinet Introduction Cabinets can either be surface-mounted directly to a wall or recessed into the wall (semi-flush mounting). Refer to the appropriate section below for specific details. Guidelines for Locating the Cabinet Always refer to engineering drawings/site installation plans before beginning installation. The AutoPulse Z-10 is designed to operate in a typical commercial environment. Choose a site for each cabinet that is: Located near a dedicated AC individual branch circuit with Earth ground (to maintain a consistent supply voltage). Mount the cabinet to the wall so that the top of the enclosure is no more than six feet above the floor. Well ventilated, clean, and dust free. Away from sources of heat, including direct sunlight. Away from sources of vibration or physical shock. Away from sources of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), such as a radio transceiver base station or hand held unit. Isolated from sources of strong electromagnetic fields, such as air conditioners, large fans, and large electric motors. Surface Mounting Surface mounting the cabinet involves screwing it directly to a wall. 1. Install two screws (not supplied), spaced 11.25 inches from each other, in a rigid surface. Make sure that the screws are level. Refer to Figure 2-3. 2. Place the cabinet s tear-drop holes over the screws, allowing the screws to fully slide into the slots of the tear-drop holes. 3. Install two screws in the lower mounting holes. These holes are approximately ¼ in diameter. 11.25 13.5 13.25 Figure 2-3. Dimensions for Surface Mount Holes 2-4

Wiring Initiating Device Circuits Guidelines Initiating Device Circuits are used for wiring smoke and heat detectors to the AutoPulse Z-10. Be aware that correct operation of the AutoPulse Z-10 depends on the proper installation and placement of smoke and heat detectors. This is particularly true when installing a cross-zoned, agent release system. With a cross-zoned system, the detectors in the room must be installed so that each successive detector in the space being protected is on an alternating zone pattern. Ensure that there are at least two detectors in each protected space, and reduce the detector installation spacing to 0.7 the linear spacing. The location and spacing of detectors shall be in accordance with the requirements of Section 5.7.3 of the National Fire Code (NFPA 72), 2002 Edition. In the following example, the shaded detectors are on Zone 1 and the non-shaded detectors are on Zone 2. The zone location is indicated by the blinking yellow LED. After ACK, the LED for the affected circuit will continue to blink. Adhere to the following guidelines when wiring IDCs: All wiring must be from 12 AWG (max.) to 18 AWG (min.). Conductors must test free of all grounds. All wiring is supervised and power limited. Leave 3.3K, 1/2W resistor across all unused IDC terminals. See note 4 in Figure 3-1 (twowire). Terminate Style B (Class B) circuits with a listed 3.3K, 1W (Part No. 431210) end-of-line resistor. See note 5 in Figure 3-1. Terminate Style D (Class A) circuits with a listed 3.3K, 1 W (Part No. 431210) end-of-line resistor. See note 6 in Figure 3-1. For Canadian applications, attach the following resistor to a ULC-listed EOL device. Part No. 431210 3.3K, 1W resistor Maximum line resistance for a circuit is 50 Ohms. Maximum number of smoke/heat detectors per IDC is 30. Maximum detector standby current is 3mA. Voltage rating nominal 24 VDC, 0.5V peak-to-peak ripple (max.) For all applications, the maximum voltage (open circuit) is 28 VDC. Maximum current is 75mA. When IDC wiring is routed outside the building, use Listed Secondary Protector 430685. A protector must be installed at the building entrance such that protected wiring is segregated from unprotected (outdoor) wiring. Continued on next page 3-2

Wiring Releasing Circuits Guidelines The Releasing Appliance Circuits (RACs) on the AutoPulse Z-10 are designated on the printed circuit board as RAC1 and RAC2. Each RAC must connect to a Part No. 430687 coil supervision module, which in turn connects to two 12 VDC or one 24 VDC solenoid (also known as an actuator). Figure 3-2 shows the wiring connections to the AutoPulse Z-10. All wiring must be 18 AWG (min.) to 12 AWG (max.). Conductors must test free of all grounds. All wiring is supervised and power limited unless otherwise noted. Wiring between Part No. 430687 coil supervision module (Yell/Black) is not power limited. Refer to the Coil Supervision Module Wiring Instructions (431303). Leave a 10K, 1/2 W (Part No. 431222) resistor across all unused RAC terminals. Voltage rating nominal 24 VDC, 0.5 V peak-to-peak ripple, maximum. Total available current from main power supply is 3A. If auxiliary power is used, available signal power is reduced accordingly. Terminal designations + and - are for the alarm state. Connect 24 VDC actuator as shown, only one 24 VDC actuator per RAC. Connect 12 VDC actuator as shown, two units must be connected via a maximum of 20 feet of wiring in conduit. For specific actuator wiring instructions, refer to the manufacturer s recommendations. Only releasing devices meeting the following criteria may be used with the AUTOPULSE Z-10: Releasing devices specified by part number in Table B-2 of this manual. Releasing devices in FM categories A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H. Max. alarm current is 2A per circuit. See following chart for line distances. RAC2 is used as NAC3 (visual notification appliances) for the New York City Abort application. When RAC wiring is routed outside the building, use Listed Secondary Protector 430685.

Wiring Special Purpose Monitor Circuits Overview Special Purpose Monitor (SPM) circuits are used for connecting abort and manual release switches to the AutoPulse Z-10. For all applications, the maximum voltage (open circuit) is 28 VDC, and the maximum current is 75mA. Note: In Preaction/ Deluge applications SPMs are used for Waterflow and Supervisory switches. In combination Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge (Applications 10 and 11) SPM1 is used for Abort/Manual and SPM2 is used with a pressure switch. Please refer to Table 1-3 for details. The application type (i.e., single hazard or dual hazard) determines the function of each SPM, as follows. The chart below refers to applications 1-4 only. Application Single Hazard, Class A/B Dual Hazard, Class A/B SPM Circuit Function SPM 1: Connect only abort switches. SPM 2: Connect only manual release switches. Refer to Wiring Class A/B SPM Circuits for Single Hazard Applications. Abort switches and manual release stations can share SPM 1 and SPM2. An activated abort switch creates a current limited state on the circuit, whereas a manual release station creates a short on the circuit. Refer to Wiring Class B SPM Circuits for Dual Hazard Applications below. Wiring Class A/B SPM Circuits for Single Hazard Applications Adhere to Figure 3-5 and the following guidelines when wiring Special Purpose Monitor (SPM) for a single hazard application. Connect abort switches to SPM1 and manual release stations to SPM2. Do not combine abort switches and manual release stations on the same circuit. In Preaction/ Deluge applications, SPM 1 is connected to Supervisory switches and SPM 2 to Waterflow controls. As noted earlier, in combination Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge (Applications 10 and 11) SPM1 is used for Abort/Manual and SPM2 is used with a pressure switch.

Overview Introduction The AutoPulse Z-10 is site-programmable, using either a text-based or front-panel programming method. In both cases, all programming selections are stored in non-volatile memory and saved between power on/off cycles. This section provides an overview of each programming method and identifies any prerequisite steps (connecting serial cable, etc.) you must complete prior to programming the panel. Notice to users, installers, authorities having jurisdiction, and other involved parties This product incorporates field-programmable software. In order for the product to comply with the requirements in CAN/ULC-S527, Standard for Control Units for Fire Systems, certain programming features or options must be limited to specific values or not used at all as indicated below. Program feature Permitted in CAN/ULC- Possible Setting permitted in or option S527? (Yes/No) settings NAC Coding Yes Temporal, 20 BPM CAN/ULC-S527 20 BPM (Note: The temporal setting may not be used as this panel is for Releasing Services only.) Text-Based Programming The text-based panel programmer runs in a terminal emulator window on your PC and uses a series of 11 text prompts, each of which corresponds to a major programming task, to guide you through the programming process. Each prompt appears similar to the example shown below. The default setting for the prompt is always designated by a d, and an asterisk (*) always indicates the currently programmed setting. Use X to exit the programmer at any time; use C to review the current programming configuration. When you turn the programming switch to the OFF position, all changes you have made are saved. To accept the currently programmed setting, simply press the Carriage Return (CR) key. To change a setting, enter the number corresponding to your choice and then press the CR key. When you press CR, the next prompt appears.

Locate the PC within 6 feet of the AutoPulse Z-10 FACP and connect a Part No. 431206 serial cable to a free serial port (typically COM1) on the PC. b. Connect the other end of the cable to the service port on the AutoPulse Z-10 FACP. The Service port, labeled P2, is located on the top left of the AutoPulse Z-10 motherboard. Make sure the stripe on the cable is positioned at the bottom, as shown in the following figure. Part No. 431206 Serial Cable Figure 4-1. Connecting Cable to Service Port Continued on next page 4-3
Overview, Continued Text-Based Programming Step 2. Set Program Switch to ON. Open the cabinet door, remove the plastic PCB cover, and set the Program Switch, located as shown in Figure 4-2, to the ON position. This places the panel in programming mode. At this time, the tone-alert pulses and the Trouble LED flashes to indicate a programming mode trouble. Pressing ACK silences the tone-alert and changes the LED to steady ON. Location of Programming Switch. Place switch in UP position to turn programming mode on. Figure 4-2. Location of Program Switch Step 3. Configure Terminal Emulator Serial Port Settings. Use a terminal emulation program, such as Windows HyperTerminal, to establish a serial communication session with the AutoPulse Z-10. Set the terminal emulator s serial communication parameters as follows: 9600 baud no parity 8 data bits 1 stop bit Set Flow Control to None Step 4. Enter a P at the Dash Prompt. A dash prompt appears in the terminal emulator window to indicate that the PC and AutoPulse Z-10 are communicating with one another. Enter a P at the dash prompt to start the programming session. - P The first prompt, which queries you for the application mode you want to select, automatically appears when you type P. Refer to Programming the Application Mode later in this chapter for a description of the application mode prompt. Front Panel Programming Programming the AutoPulse Z-10 from the front panel is an 11-step process. With this method, the AutoPulse Z-10 uses the LEDs on the front of the panel to represent the available programming options. The left column of LEDs represents which general programming option is selected and the right column represents context-sensitive choices for the selected programming option. The System Reset key allows you to move down through the choices and the ACK key is used to accept a selection and move to the next programming step. (The Silence key has no programming function.) Figure 4-3 summarizes the operation of the front panel programming method. When you place the Program Switch in the ON position, the panel immediately enters programming mode and the LEDs appear as shown in 1 Application Mode. 4-4

Overview, Continued Programming the Application Mode Overview Method Text-Based Programming The first programming step is to select the application mode (i.e., Agent Release, Single Hazard, Cross Zoned, Combined Release, etc.). The AutoPulse Z-10 can be programmed with any one of 13 agent release or Preaction/Deluge application modes. Note: Refer to Table 1-2 in Chapter 1 for a summary of each application mode. Description The first prompt, shown below, queries you to select the application mode. [01] APPLICATION MODE: d*1 = Agent Release, Single Hazard, Cross Zoned, Combined Release 2 = Agent Release, Single Hazard, Non-Cross Zoned, Combined Release 3 = Agent Release, Dual Hazard, Cross Zoned 4 = Agent Release, Dual Hazard, Non-Cross Zoned 5 = Preaction/Deluge, Single Hazard, Cross Zoned, Combined Release 6 = Preaction/Deluge, Single Hazard, Non-Cross Zoned, Combined Release 7 = Preaction/Deluge, Dual Hazard, Cross Zoned 8 = Preaction/Deluge, Dual Hazard, Non-Cross Zoned 9 = Agent Release, Single Hazard, Cross-Zoned, NYC abort 10 = Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge, Single Hazard, Cross-Zoned, Combined Release 11 = Agent Release and Preaction/Deluge, Single Hazard, Combined Release 12 = Agent Release, Single Hazard, Cross-Zoned, Bell/Horn/Strobe 13 = Agent Release, Single Hazard, Bell/Horn/Strobe (d=default, *=current setting) Select Number(X=exit): Enter the number corresponding to the application mode you want to select and press the carriage return. Refer to Programming the Relay Option in the next section for a description of the next programming step. The top LED (red) on the left side of the display is lit to indicate the application mode is being programmed. The top LED on the right side of the display is lit to indicate the default application (Agent Release, 1 Hazard, Cross Zoned, Combined RAC) that is currently selected. Press ACK to use the default. To choose a different application, do the following: 1. Press the RESET key to move down through the list of available applications. Each time you press this key, the illuminated LED on the right side of the panel changes to the next one down. If none of the first nine applications are selected, the second application mode menu will appear. It is shown on the next page. (Refer to the figure below for the relationship between the LEDs and applications.) 2. When the LED corresponding to the desired application is illuminated, press the ACK key. This saves the selection in memory and moves you to the next programming step. Front Panel Programming When top LED (red) on left side of display is lit, it indicates that the application mode is being programmed. Yellow Trouble LED lit to indicate panel is in programming mode. Green LED is AC Power. These LEDs represent the available application selections. Use the RESET key to move through the choices. Press ACK when the illuminated LED corresponds to the desired choice.
Overview, Continued Programming the Application Mode, Continued Method Description Front Panel Programming The top two LEDs on the left side of the display are lit to indicate that applications 10-13 can be selected. If the Reset key is pressed 4 times, the LEDs will revert to the previous screen. These LEDs represent this group of available applications. Use the RESET key to move through the choices. Press ACK when the illuminated LED corresponds to the desired choice. Yellow Trouble LED is lit to indicate panel is in programming mode. Green LED is AC Power.
Overview, Continued Programming the Relay Option Overview The setting of this option determines how the aux and expansion relays operate. Only the nine original applications use both modes. Original or Enhanced results in the same aux and expansion relay operation for Applications 10-13. Original Mode. The original nine applications can use either original mode or enhanced mode. If original mode is selected the relays operate as they did before Enhanced mode was added. Original mode still exists for two reasons. The first is if the customer is expanding their system and desires the same operation from a new panel. The second reason is if there is a failed or damaged unit and a replacement is required that operates in the same manner. Table 1-1 shows the original relay options. Enhanced Mode. This mode changes the relay operations for the first nine applications. The four new applications don t distinguish between the two modes. By default, applications 10 through 13 will use Enhanced mode. The reason for this new mode is to more closely align the relay operation with the conventional definition used by the releasing industry. Table 1-2 shows the enhanced relay operations. Method Text-Based Programming Description The second prompt, shown below, asks you to set the Relay Mode. [02] RELAY OPTIONS: d 1 = Option One (Original Mode) *2 = Option Two (Enhanced Mode) (d=default, *=current setting) Select Number(X=exit): Enter the number corresponding to the Relay Operation you want to select and press carriage return. Refer to Programming IDC Circuit Style in the next section for a description of the next programming step. If you want to use the default choice (Original Mode), press the ACK key. To choose Enhanced Mode, press the RESET key to move down in the list. When the desired choice is illuminated, press the ACK key to save the selection in the memory and move to the next programming step. Front Panel Programming When the first and third LEDs are lit, it indicates the Relay Option is being programmed. These LEDs represent the 2 available relay options. Use the RESET key to move through the choices. Press ACK when the illuminated LED corresponds to the desired choice. Yellow Trouble LED is lit to indicate panel is in programming mode. Green LED is AC Power.
Overview, Continued Programming IDC Circuit Style Overview Method Text-Based Programming The setting of this option determines how the system interprets short and current-limited conditions on the IDCs and SPMs as follows: Style C Operation. This operation is not currently supported. Class A/B Operation. When the IDC circuit style is set to Class A/B operation, alarms are initiated on IDCs with either a short or current limited alarm. When Class A or B operation is selected, the Special Purpose Monitor (SPM) circuits can be used for both abort and manual release switches. Abort switches come into the system as current limited alarms. A manual release comes into the panel as a short. The maximum number of abort switches per circuit is five. Description The third prompt, shown below, asks you to set the IDC and SPM circuit style. [03] STYLE C OPERATION: d 1 = No *2 = Yes (d=default, *=current setting) Select Number(X=exit): Press the carriage return to accept the default. Refer to Programming the Automatic Release Timer in the next section for a description of the next programming step. Press the ACK key to use the default choice (Class B/A). This saves the selection in memory and moves you to the next programming step. When second LED from top on left side of display is lit, it indicates that the IDC/SPM circuit style is being programmed. These LEDs represent the available circuit style selections. Note that only Class A/B operation is currently supported. Front Panel Programming Press ACK to accept the default (Class A/B operation). Yellow Trouble LED indicates panel is in programming mode. Green LED is AC Power.
Overview, Continued Programming the Automatic Release Timer Overview The Automatic Release Time Delay is a programmable timer that delays the activation of the releasing appliance circuits. This timer starts immediately after receiving a confirming alarm (cross zoned system) or a first alarm (single alarm system). When the timer expires, the releasing appliances activate (assuming the abort switch is not active). This delay allows evacuation of the protected space before release of the agent. A delay timer should be considered if occupants might possibly be present in the protected space. Selecting immediate will result in release of extinguishing agent simultaneous to the pre-discharge signal. Method Text-Based Programming Description The fourth prompt, shown below, asks you to set the Automatic Release Delay Timer. [04] AUTOMATIC RELEASE TIMER: 1 = Immediate (no delay) *2 = 5 sec. 3 = 10 sec. 4 = 25 sec. 5 = 20 sec. 6 = 25 sec. 7 = 30 sec. 8 = 35 sec. 9 = 40 sec. 10 = 45 sec. 11 = 50 sec. 12 = 55 sec. d 13 = 60 sec. (d=default, *=current setting) Select Number(X=exit): Enter the number corresponding to the delay timer you want to select and press the carriage return. Refer to Programming the RAC Time Limit Cutout for a description of the next programming step. The timer range is 0 to 60 seconds, selectable in 5 second increments. The default setting for this option is 60 seconds. Use the Reset key to scroll through the selections. When the desired choice is illuminated, press the ACK key to save the selection in memory and move to the next programming step. Front Panel Programming When third LED from top on left side of display is lit, it indicates the Automatic Release Time Delay is being programmed. Yellow Trouble LED indicates panel is in programming mode. Green LED is AC Power. These LEDs represent the available timer selections. Use the RESET key to move through the choices. Press ACK when the illuminated LED corresponds to the desired choice.
Overview, Continued Programming the RAC Time Limit Cutout Overview Method Text-Based Programming The RAC Cutout Timer is a programmable timer that specifies the length of time the Releasing Circuits are active. When the timer expires, the RACs cut out. This stops the water flow or release of the extinguishing agent. This option is typically used on Deluge systems, and does not work with all releasing systems and or releasing devices. (Some devices discharge their entire supply of agent when fired so this setting would have no effect on operation.) A selection of 0 means the RACs do not cut out and remain on until the system is reset. Description The fifth prompt, shown below, asks you to set the RAC Cutout Timer. [05] RAC TIME LIMIT CUTOUT: d*1 = None 2 = 45 secs. 3 = 1 min. 4 = 3 min. 5 = 4 min. 6 = 5 min. 7 = 6 min. 8 = 7 min. 9 = 3.5 min. 10 = 21 min. 11 = 25 min. 12 = 34 min. 13 = 44 min. 14 = 64 min.

Overview, Continued Programming Manual Release Time Delay Overview The Manual Release Time Delay is a programmable timer that specifies the delay between the activation of a manual release switch and the activation of releasing appliances. The default setting for this timer is 10 seconds. A setting of 0 causes the releasing appliances to immediately activate after a manual release switch activates. As the timer counts down, the notification appliances sound a temporal or 20 beat per minute signal (the actual signal that plays depends on the setting of the NAC Coding option, as described in Programming NAC Coding, later in this chapter). Method Text-Based Programming Description The sixth prompt, shown below, asks you to set the Manual Release Delay Timer. [06] MANUAL RELEASE TIMER: 1 = Immediate (no delay) *2 = 5 sec. d 3 = 10 sec. 4 = 15 sec. 5 = 20 sec. 6 = 25 sec. 7 = 30 sec.

Overview, Continued Programming Abort Switch Operation Overview The Abort Release Time Delay specifies the action that occurs when the abort switch is released. This option applies only to Agent Release applications. Important Notes: For all choices except IRI Abort, pressing and holding the abort switch prevents agent release for as long as the switch is held in. For IRI Abort, the abort switch must be pressed and held before the second alarm activation occurs to prevent release. Specific operation of the NYC Abort is as follows: Pressing the Abort switch does the following: a. Bell and bell strobe turn on (NAC1) b. Evacuation visuals turn off (NAC3) c. Evacuation audibles turn off (NAC2) d. Automatic Release Timer countdown stops at its current value. Releasing the Abort switch starts the 90-second Investigation Timer. When the Investigation Timer expires, the following occurs: a. Bell and bell strobe turn off (NAC1) b. Evacuation visuals turn on (NAC3) c. Evacuation audibles turn on at 120 BPM (NAC2) d. Reload the Automatic Release Timer with the programmed value Subsequently pressing/releasing the abort switch repeats the process (silencing the NACs, activating the bell, starting the 90 second investigation timer, etc.) until the Release Timer expires and the RAC(s) activate. Pressing/releasing the Abort switch while the Investigation Timer counts down, has no effect. Use of the abort switches in a pre-action or deluge water type releasing service will void UL 864 Listing for this product. Continued on next page
Overview, Continued Programming Abort Switch Operation, Continued Overview Method Text-Based Programming Immediate. If a confirmed alarm exists (i.e., two detectors on separate zones for a cross zoned system or a single detector in a single alarm system), the RACs activate immediately upon release of the abort switch. 10s/Remaining. When the abort switch is released, the delay used is whichever is greater -- the remaining time left on Automatic Release Delay Timer or 10 seconds. IRI Abort -- Cross Zoned System Only (Does not comply with UL 864). When a single alarm is present, pressing the abort switch prevents the RACs from activating. If a second alarm condition occurs while the Abort switch is still pressed, the automatic release timer resets to whatever value has been configured for it and begins to count down, stopping at 10 seconds. When the abort switch is released, the panel starts the release timer countdown. Original Delay (Does not comply with UL 864). Releasing the abort switch resets the delay timer interval to the value set for the Automatic Release Delay Timer. Description The seventh prompt, shown below, asks you to set the abort switch operation.

Overview, Continued Programming Stage 1 NAC2 Coding Overview The function of the NAC is to warn building occupants of alarm conditions detected by the system. Occupants must be familiar with the established procedure to follow upon detection of an alarm. For systems intended for Halon 1301 (NFPA 12A), Halon 1211 (NFPA 12B), or clean agent (NFPA 2001) release, a pre-discharge NAC must be configured to warn building occupants of the impending discharge. The setting of the release timer selects the duration of the predischarge signal. Compliance with ADA requires audible and visible notification. Cross Zoned System. The first alarm sounds a temporal code (.5 second ON,.5 second OFF,.5 second ON,.5 second OFF,.5 second ON, 1.5 seconds OFF, and then repeat pattern) on the audible NACs. The second alarm causes the cadence to increase to 120 beats per minute for the duration of the Automatic Release Delay Timer. When release occurs, the audible appliances sound a steady tone. Single System. The first alarm sounds a temporal code on the audible NACs for the duration of the Automatic Release Delay Timer. When the timer expires and the RACs activate, the NACs switch to a steady tone. This option allows the first alarm signal to be changed from temporal (default) to a slower 20 BPM signal, if necessary. Method Text-Based Programming Description The eighth prompt, shown below, asks you to set the Stage 1 Coding.
