ZONESENSE PLUS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & OPERATION 1 About This Manual 1.1 Purpose This manual is an instructional tool for the installation, commissioning, programming / reprogramming and operation of the ZoneSense PLUS Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). 1.2 Scope The information within this manual is only available to and for the use of personnel engaged in the installation and operation of the ZoneSense PLUS FACP. ZoneSense PLUS has been designed to comply with major world standards.
ZONESENSE PLUS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & OPERATION 2 Introduction The ZoneSense PLUS 4, 8 zone FACP complies with the highest level of approval for any applicable code and can be connected to an appropriate Fire Service monitoring facility. As a Minimum, the conventional panel meets the following Standards; British Standard European Standard BS 5839 EN54 Parts 2 & 4 The basic ZoneSense PLUS is available in a ABS (BX1) and Metal (BX10) cabinets and consists of a; 1.
ZONESENSE PLUS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & OPERATION 3 Mechanical ZoneSense PLUS can be surface or semi-flush mounted. The ABS version is supplied with a detachable door, a mountable back box. Depending on the configuration it may be necessary to remove the batteries to expose the lower mounting keyhole. All of which are easily removed should it be necessary. Inside the door is a matrix style label for the recording of the panel configuration. 3.

ZONESENSE PLUS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & OPERATION 3.1.2 PCB Removal / Replacement If the PCB’s have to be removed the following precautions should be observed; 1. Removing the door will provide better access to the boards and ensure the hinges are not accidentally stressed. 2. Personal anti- static procedures must be followed. 3. When disconnecting the telecom style (RJ45) connecting cable from the PCB, make sure that the cable remains connected to at least one board to prevent it being misplaced.
ZONESENSE PLUS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & OPERATION 3.1.3 Removing the Knockouts Carefully decide how the wiring will be brought into the panel then remove the required knock-outs for the bushes and cables. The knock-outs should be removed with a sharp tap in the rim of the knock-out using a flat broadbladed screwdriver. Use of excessive force could damage the enclosure around the knock-out. Always ensure if a knock-out is removed, the hole is filled with a good quality cable gland.
