Introduction 1. Introduction Important – removing/changing Loop Units If it is necessary to remove/change loop units for any reason during normal operation, never remove more than one loop unit at the time. 1.1 About the Handbook This handbook is intended to provide all necessary information for the commissioning of the AutroSafe Interactive Fire Alarm System.
Verifying the Loops 2. Verifying the Loops 2.1 AS-2000 Loop Diagnostic Tool All loops should be verified with the AS-2000 Loop Diagnostic Tool before startup. Although this is presumably already done at an earlier stage (shortly after the installation), it is recommended that all loops are verified once again in case minor changes have been done. By doing this, you will eliminate possible problems during the startup procedure and downloading of configuration data.
Consistency Check of Configuration Data 3. Consistency Check of Configuration Data 3.1 Introduction NOTE: To ensure a problem-free download of configuration data, always perform a consistency check, using the results from the AS-2000 verification and the data that has been configured by means of the AutroSafe Configuration Tool. 3.2 Parameters Used for the Consistency Check The table below provides a description of two of the parameters that are used for the consistency check.
3.3 Importing Loop Data from the AS-2000 Tool The AutroSafe Configuration Tool features an Import command allowing you to import loop data directly from the AS-2000 Loop Diagnostic tool. In this way, it is possible to ensure that the point types and sequence indexes in the configuration will be identical to the real loop. Tag Names and optional Detection Zones (DZs) will be assigned to the points during import.
4. Commissioning Procedure This chapter covers the commissioning of both a standalaone system and a distributed system with several system units operating on the local operating network; AUTROLON.
4.1 Verifying the System Before Startup 4.1.1 Recommended Equipment When performing the verification procedure, we recommend that a high-ohmic universal measuring instrument is used. The internal resistance should be approximately 5 Mohm. Commissioning Handbook, AutroSafe Interactive Fire Alarm System, Release 3, P-ASAFE/EE Rev.
4.1.2 Before You Begin ! • Make sure that the mains power is OFF. • Make sure that the mains inlet and the batteries are disconnected. • Make sure that fuse F1 and F2 on the Power Supply BSS-103A/02 are removed. Mains Power OFF! Applies to BS-320 BC-320 Applies to SY-310 F3 F2 Remove fuse F1 and F2.
4.1.3 Required Strapping for System Units with Optional Printer Applies to BS-310 BS-320 BS-330 To ensure that the printer functions after commissioning for system units provided with a printer, be aware of the following: • Before Power ON, make sure that the strap (position X21) on the Display Board BSR-310 is in its correct position. • Before downloading (at a later stage), remove the strap. • After downloading (at a later stage), the power must be turned OFF.
4.1.5 Verifying Connections on the Operator Panel / Repeater Panel and Information Panel Before startup, make sure that all connections are properly done. Verify the following steps: Applies to 1. Verify the connections to 24V DC to the Connection Module BSF-310B.
2. Verify the connections from the AUTROLON to the Connection Module BSF-310B.

3. Applies to BS-330 BV-320 BU-320 Verify the connections of the internal AUTROLON cable and the ribbon cable between the Connection Module BSF-310B and; (A) the Display Board BSR-310 (BS-330/BU-320/BV-320) or (B) the EAU-310 Board (BS-320/BC-320). NOTE: On the Operator Panel BS-330, there are two connectors inside the front panel door for the ribbon cable. Make sure to connect the ribbon cable to the uppermost connector on the Display Board.
4.1.6 Verification Procedure for Fire Alarm Control Panel / Controller Applies to BS-320 and BC-320 Consult if necessary the relevant drawings and perform the steps: 1 Verify that the ribbon cable from the front panel to the Connection Module (BSF310B) in the cabinet is fitted. 2 Verify that the ribbon cable from Connection Module (BSF-310B) to Communication Module (BSL-310) is fitted. 3 Verify that the ribbon cable from Communication Module (BSL-310) to the Power Supply (BSS-103A/02) is fitted.
4.2 Addressing the System Units 4.2.1 General Note that in a standalone system where BS-310 is used, the switches must be set to 0 for the System ID and the Ring ID. A distributed AutroSafe system requires a correct addressing of all system units on the AUTROLON. The addressing, which is set with rotary switches on each system unit, must correspond to the addressing that is defined for the specific configuration (defined by means of the AutroSafe Configuration Tool).
4.2.3 Addressing System ID on Controllers System ID numbers are set by means of two rotary switches (S17 and S16) on the Operator Board BSZ-310 (see illustration below). Rotary switches on the Operator Board NOTE! When setting hexadecimal numbers on the two rotary switches on the Operator Board, always read the numbers from left towards right, i.e. from S17 to S16 (except addresses 02=S17=0, S16=2). 4.2.
4.2.5 Number Series - System ID and Ring ID Note that in a standalone system where BS-310 is used, the switches must be set to 0 for the System ID and the Ring ID. As there can be several system units of the same type in a distributed system, for example, two Operator Panels, three Information Panels etc, there are defined System ID number series for each System Unit type. A general rule is that the Fire Alarm Control Panel, which is considered as the Booting Panel, is always given System ID = 01.
4.2.6 Examples of Addressing Example 1: A Fire Alarm Control Panel is to be given System ID = 01. The correct hexadecimal numbering on the rotary switches on the Display Board BSR-310 is shown on the drawing below. S102 S101 1 0 Read from left towards right Example 2: The Fire Alarm Control Panel is to be given Ring ID = 01 The correct hexadecimal numbering on the rotary switches on the Operator Board BSZ-310 is shown on the drawing below.
4.2.7 Jumper Settings on the LON Interface Board The Fire Alarm Control Panel and the Controller are both provided with the necessary LON Interface Board (EAU-310). The board must have the correct jumper settings (factory set). This is done by setting jumpers in the correct positions on the connector located at the right bottom side of the LON Interface Board (see drawing below). The LON Interface Board is shown as it is mounted onto the Processor Board EAC-300 in the Fire Alarm Control Panel or Controller.
4.3 Startup Procedure 4.3.1 Preparing the Fire Alarm Control Panel / Controller 1 2 3 4 Connect the mains inlet on the Power Supply (BSS-103/02) to the external source. 5 Applies to the Fire Alarm Control Panel. Connect a computer to the connector X22 on the Display Board (BSR-310) board. Measure the voltage (230V) across X2-X3 on the Power Supply (BSS-103/02). Check that you have the correct addressing according to the configuration data.
4.3.2 Entering Programming Mode When the necessary preparations are made, you can enter programming mode. This is done by pressing the reset button on the Display Board BSR-310. As the Controller is not equipped with the Display Board, reset is performed by pressing the reset button on the Processor Board EAC-300.
4.3.3 Configuration Files The AutroSafe Configuration Tool generates the following configuration files: System Unit Configuration Files (binary) Fire Alarm Control Panel BS-320 BsrFlash.bin EacEeprom.bin EacFlash.bin Controller BC-320 EacEeprom.bin EacFlash.bin Operator Panel BS-330 BsrFlash.bin Repeater Panel BU-320 BsrFlash.bin Information Panel BV-320 BsrFlash.
4.3.4 Communication Setup • Double-click the AutroSafe Download Tool icon and the communication setup menu will appear on screen. • Select the communication port that is used. • Click OK. 4.3.5 Locating Configuration Files • The configuration files are automatically sorted in different folders in the Installation/Config_Bin directory.

4.3.6 Downloading Configuration Files • When downloading configuration data to the different system units in a distributed system, make sure to download the configuration files from the correct folders (see previous chapter).
4.3.7 Booting the System from the Fire Alarm Control Panel BS-320 (Booting Panel) The initialization of the system is done from the Fire Alarm Control Panel (the booting panel). Refer to chapter 4.2.4 and 4.2.5. When the downloading procedure is complete and the reset button on the Display Board BSR-310 is pressed, the following will appear on the booting panel's screen (example): 15:10 Starting Paneltype = BSSystem SW =x.x.x Config interface =x.x.
