1. Introduction 1.1 Purpose of This Guide This document is intended to provide the information required to install the hardware and wiring components of a VIS system. Read this entire document before proceeding with the installation. A general understanding of wiring and telephone installation techniques is assumed. 1.2 Computer System Requirements The software runs in the Microsoft Windows 95, 98 or Windows NT environment and requires a computer system with reasonable capacity and speed.
Plenum - This term refers to any area that serves as a duct or passage for breathable air. Many office buildings use the space above the suspended ceiling as a return air "plenum" for the heating and air conditioning systems. Most laws require that any cables, which run in an air plenum, be made of materials which will not burn, or which will not release toxic gases when burned. Punch-down Block - This device is used to connect sensor wires to the collector in an organized fashion.
badge. The information is sent through the sensory network to a host computer that retrieves the information and translates the data into names of rooms, personnel, and equipment. Workstations throughout the facility can access the location data with various client software programs, which display current locations of personnel and equipment, display alarms on the monitor, send pager messages, and store for later use in reports and archiving. System Structure 2.
2.3.1 Badges Badges are worn by personnel or attached to equipment. Badges send IR or RF signals to the sensors installed in each room. This signal contains encoded digital information that is used to identify and obtain the status of the badge. Motion, timing, battery state, and auxiliary information are all included in the signal. All Versus badges that include IR technology have a unique feature that serves to extend battery life.
2.3.2 Sensors Sensors receive signals from badges, convert the signals into electrical signals, and pass the data along to collectors. Sensors are usually mounted in the ceiling tiles of a facility. There are two types of sensors, infrared (IR), and radio frequency (RF). 2.3.2.1 • • • • • • 2.3.2.2 • • • • • Infrared (IR) Sensor Receives IR signals from badges. Converts IR signals into electrical signals. Sends electrical signals to system via a single unshielded twisted pair wire.
3. 2. Place the front of the badge you are testing a half inch or closer in front of the test window on the Badge Tester. 3. The badge condition will be indicated as follows: • If the badge is good, the tester will beep once, and the green light will illuminate. • If the battery is low and needs replacing, the tester will beep twice, and the red light will illuminate. Planning the Installation Planning the system design is crucial to the success of the installation.
The Installation Checklist, located in section 6, is intended to be a record of the installation steps. Before starting the installation, fill in the checklist by referring to the contractual floor plan schematic for the quantities and numbers of zones and other components for the specific installation. The Punchdown Block Organization List in section 6 will also be used during the planning stages of the installation. General System Hardware Configuration 3.
Caution: Collectors may be affected by high watt radio or paging antennas. Do not place a collector in close proximity to one of these antennas. 3.1.1 Collector Network Length Limitations There must be no more than four collectors on any one concentrator as shown in the RS-485 loop display below. Collectors should not be placed more than 1000 feet apart. The total length of the collector network (from the Concentrator to the last Collector in the chain) must not be more than 3000 feet. 3.
If an IR sensor is placed in a room with obstacles and reflections eliminated, the field of view of the sensor appears in the shape of six overlapping lobes forming a 15-foot radius. Top view of sensors in a hallway An IR sensor “sees” the environment under it in a largely predictable pattern. However, there are factors that can affect this field of view.
If the room has windows that allow a large amount of sunlight to enter the room, place the sensor in a position where the sunlight does not reflect directly into it from objects in the room. Sunlight can decrease sensor range and field of view if allowed to enter the sensor. Window tint films that block infrared (heat) energy greatly reduce this effect. 3.2.3 RF Sensor Location Planning Planning the location of RF sensors depends upon the facility.

The VIS system integrates hardware and software to create a safe, reliable and efficient system. Use of components or connection to equipment not approved by the manufacturer is NOT recommended and will invalidate any and all warranties. Approved third-party components include wire and connectors, terminal blocks, and other interconnection means only. Questions regarding the use of third-party equipment or components should be directed to your dealer for clarification before being connected to your system.
3.6 Safety and Code Considerations Safety procedures and adherence to local building codes are the responsibility of the system installer. Versus products have been designed to be safe and reliable under the conditions in which they are intended to be used. The following sections detail those aspects of the system that might affect safety. 3.6.1 Equipment Handling The components used in a typical installation contain internal circuits that are sensitive to static electricity.
CAUTION: Allowing sensor or network conductors to encounter metal surfaces and structures, or allowing wires to be routed in close proximity to high powered equipment or devices will introduce electrical interference and may cause erratic operation and/or equipment failure. 3.6.4 Codes and Ratings of Materials Used The materials used in the construction of individual components meet or exceed UL fire retarding requirements. However, not all these devices are rated for air plenum use.
4. System Hardware Installation This section covers the installation of the system components. Before installing the hardware components, all planning should be completed as described in section 3. 4.1 Cable Installation When installing sensor and network wiring, use normal telephone installation techniques. Sensor wire runs should allow sufficient length to move ceiling tiles and to move sensors if needed.
4.3 3. Pull the sensor cable wire-pair through the hole and connect to the sensor using UY splice connectors. 4. Gently bend the spring steel clips upward and insert the sensor into the ceiling tile hole. The steel clips and the sensor cover will “sandwich” the ceiling tile and hold securely. 5. Mark the sensor as installed on the Installation Checklist. Punch-down Block and Collector Installation An example of neatly installed punch-down blocks, collectors, and concentrators.
Note: Make sure power is not supplied when connecting components. 4.4 1. Mount the punch-down block on the wall using appropriate wall-mount hardware. 2. Mount the collector adjacent and connected to the associated punch-down block, using the Velcro tape and clip provided with the unit. When using Velcro tape to secure a collector unit, make sure the solid metal end clip is firmly secure to prevent sagging of the connection between the collector and punch-down block.
For connecting the sensor wires to the punch-down block, refer to the Punch-down Block Organization Chart for the location each wire should be connected on the block. 1. Remove all bridge clips from the punch-down block. 2. Referring to the Punch-down Block Organization List to make sure each sensor wire is connected to the correct position on the punch-down block, connect the sensor wire-pairs to the appropriate punch-down block pin-pair positions using the punch-down block tool. 3. Check isolation.
The concentrator and collector devices connect to the 2-pair wiring system using modular interfaces to allow for easy testing of the wiring before power is applied. It is recommended that installers be equipped with appropriate USOC cable testers as required to verify the polarity and validity of installed wiring. Note that 3-pair USOC interconnections may also be used. In this case, the third pair (outermost) is used in parallel with the second pair to improve power distribution to the collectors. 4.5.
2. Apply the probes to each sensor connection on the punch-down block. If the reading is: For: (Sensor type) Then: Approximately 18 volts RF only the sensor is wired correctly. <14 volts IR and RF There is radio frequency or electromagnetic interference. IR only the sensor is wired correctly. Approximately 16 volts Approximately 20 volts Very low or zero IR and RF IR and RF there is no sensor connected to this pair or the wiring to the sensor is open. the sensor pair is shorted.
reverse polarity or a short circuit. The red light will flash every time it sees a badge fire. A constant pattern of four or five flashes may indicate there is a problem with the connectors on the cable. To wire collectors Note: Do not make any connections to components unless indicated by a step in the procedure. Ensure that all bridge clips have been removed from the selected punch-down block/collector unit. 1.

The Concentrator is a “table-top” box assembly, which can sit on a level surface or be mounted on any flat surface with mounting clips.
Plug the power supply connector into the concentrator and observed the red LED indicator lights. If it fails to light, recheck the power and connections. There are four LED indicator lights on the Concentrator. The function of each is described in the diagram below. Concentrator The LED indicator light on the Collector will blink every time it receives badge data from the sensors. If the LED blinks in a four or 5-blink pattern, this indicates that it is not communicating with the concentrator.
2. On the Frequencer screen, type the IP address of the computer where the Badge Server is installed. The badge hits will start appearing in the window. 3. To isolate and only test RF sensors, type the badge number of an RF badge in the Badge field. 4. Take an RF badge and “hide” the badge in a pocket or other place, so it is not seen by the IR sensors. 5. One person will need to sit at the computer while another person walks to all areas within the facility with the hidden badge.
Problem: Incorrect voltages across sensor pair at the punch-down block. Discussion: The voltage across the sensor pair at the collector punch-down block should be between 15 and 17 volts DC. A voltage above18 may indicate an open circuit, while a voltage below 15 may indicate RF interference, or faulty sensor, or faulty wiring. RF interference may be verified by switching the meter to the AC scale and reading voltage.
