Do not energize the panel until all associated modules and interconnecting cables have been connected. H. Prior to energizing the panel: 1: Verify that dip switches controlling panel operation are in the proper position for the system used. (Refer to Figure 2, Page 433 d, and VIKING FIELD WIR- ING DIAGRAMS. 2. Verify that all modules are securely and properly positioned on their pins. If a module is loose, carefully align all pins and press firmly into position. I. Connect non-energized AC power to the panel. (Refer to Figure 2, Page 433 d, and VIKING FIELD WIRING DIAGRAMS). 1: Connect the wire providing incoming voltage to the terminal marked H. 2: Connect the neutral wire to the terminal marked N. 3: Connect the ground wire to the terminal marked G. Note: Use the best earth ground possible. J. Procedure for connecting batteries: Ensure that AC Power is connected before connecting batteries. Refer to Technical Data for instructions on selecting and sizing batteries. Note: Two battery plug/wire assemblies (long leads with plug) and jumper (short) wires are provided with each panel. Connectors on one plug/wire assembly fit 7.0 AH Batteries. Connectors on the other plug/wire assembly fit 12.0 AH Batteries. 1. Position batteries end to end with terminals adjacent. Select the proper plug/wire assembly for the batteries used. 2: Connect the long RED lead to the positive terminal o one battery, and the long BLACK lead to the negative terminal of the other. 3: Place batteries inside the battery compartment of the Firecycle III Control Panel with the unused terminals toward the open door. Install batteries in the upright position only. 4: Plug the plug-in connector to J9 on the main board of the panel. (Refer to Figure 2, Page 433 d, and VIKING FIELD WIRING DIAGRAMS). Do NOT install jumper at this time. To energize the panel and place the system in service: K. Energize the AC power supply to the panel. The Piezo will sound, and the System Trouble and Power Trouble LEDs will flash. L. Use the jumper (short) wire to connect the unused negative terminal of one battery with the unused positive terminal of the other battery. The Piezo should silence, and the System Trouble and Power Trouble LEDs should stop flashing. M. Perform appropriate tests to verify proper operation of the system. N. After placing the system in service, close and lock the panel to prevent tampering with the unit. When installing optional cards, modules, inter-connecting cables, or other associated equipment, refer to Section 11: MAINTENANCE, the technical data documents for the optional equipment to be installed, and the Firecycle III Control Panel Owner s Manual. 10. OPERATION AND TESTING The Control Panel is connected to the normally closed Firecycle detector circuit, power supply, and electrical alarms. When a Firecycle detector operates, the Control Panel initiates the appropriate signals, based on the dip switch settings of the panel. (Refer to Section 9: Installation Instructions.) When the Firecycle detectors reset: 1. The soak timer is energized, allowing waterflow to continue for a predetermined time period from 30 seconds to 15 minutes. (Refer to Figure 3, Page 433 e.) 2. At the end of the timer period, the Firecycle Control Panel de-energizes a normally closed solenoid valve, allowing the Flow Control Valve to re-prime and close, stopping the flow of water to the sprinkler system piping. The SYSTEM RESET button resets the timer and alarm circuits, and de-energizes a normally open solenoid valve, allowing the system to be returned to normal service. Tests It is imperative that the system be inspected and tested on a regular basis. Refer to "INSPECTIONS and TESTS" recommended in current Viking Technical Data describing individual components of the Firecycle III System. The frequency of the inspections may vary due to contaminated water supplies, corrosive water supplies, corrosive atmospheres, as well as the condition of the air supply to the system (if applicable). For minimum maintenance and inspection requirements, refer to the National Fire Protection Association Pamphlet that describes care and maintenance of sprinkler systems. In addition, the Authority Having Jurisdiction may have additional maintenance, testing, and inspection requirements which must be followed. Prior to proceeding with tests: A. Verify that installation complies with instructions in the Firecycle III Owner s Manual provided with the panel and the appropriate Viking Field Wiring Diagrams. B. Notify the Authority Having Jurisdiction and all those in the area affected by the test. 11.

The yellow LED will flash indicating Zone #1 is disabled. B. To disable subsequent zones, continue holding the TONE SI- LENCE button, and press the ALARM SILENCE button to select the next zone (the LED will flash on the zone selected) or ALARM ACTIVATE button to select the previous zone. Continue holding ALARM SILENCE and press SYSTEM RESET to disable a selected zone. When disabled, the yellow LED will flash, indicating the zone is disabled. 4: When desired zones are disabled, release the TONE SILENCE button. The Piezo sounder will sound. 5: To silence the Peizo, press TONE SILENCE. 6: To re-enable a disabled zone, repeat the procedure. Note: If any zone has been disabled, the Trouble Relay will activate, and the System Trouble LED will flash. If a zone has been disabled, an alarm that occurs on that zone will flash the red zone Led, but will not sound the Piezo or activate any output circuit. If both power sources are removed from the system, all zones will be re-enabled upon restoration of power. Disable status is lost. WARNING: Disconnect all power sources before servicing. The panel and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the panel is energized. For minimum maintenance and inspection requirements, refer to the National Fire Protection Association Pamphlet that describes care and maintenance of sprinkler systems. In addition, the Authority Having Jurisdiction may have additional requirements which must be followed. CAUTION: Any system maintenance that requires placing a control valve or detection system out of service may eliminate the fire-protection capabilities of that system. Prior to proceeding, notify all Authorities Having Jurisdiction. Consideration should be given to employment of a fire patrol in the affected areas.
