INTELLIKNIGHT Fire System and Manual Number 151209 Rev N Procedure to the following will aid in problem free installation with long term reliability Precautions Adherence to the following will aid in problem free installation long term reliability WARNING Several different sources of power can be connected the fire alarm control panel Disconnect all sources of power before servicing Control unit associated equipment may be damaged by removing and or inserting cards modules or cables while the unit is energized Do not attempt to install service or operate unit until manuals are read and understood CAUTION System Re acceptance Test after Changes To ensure proper system operation this product must be tested in with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or change in site specific Re acceptance testing is required after any change addition or deletion of system or after any modification repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring All circuits system operations or software functions known to be affected by a must be 100 tested In addition to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently at least 10 of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change up to a of 50 devices must also be tested and proper system operation verified This meets NFPA requirements for operation within the range of 0 32 or within the range of 10 93 at 30 86 noncondensing However the useful of the system standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely affected extreme temperature ranges and humidity Therefore it is recommended that this system its peripherals be installed in an environment with a normal room temperature of 15 27 F Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating device loops devices cannot tolerate more than a 10 I R drop from the specified device voltage all solid state electronic devices this system may operate erratically or can be damaged subjected to lightning induced transients Although no system is completely immune lightning transients and interference proper grounding will reduce susceptibility or outside aerial wiring is not recommended due to an increased susceptibility to lightning strikes Consult with the Technical Services Department if any problems are or encountered Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or circuit boards Failure to do so can damage circuits Remove all electronic prior to any drilling filing reaming or punching of the enclosure When possible all cable entries from the sides or rear Before making modifications verify that they not interfere with battery transformer or printed circuit board location Do not tighten terminals more than 9 in lbs Over tightening may damage threads resulting in terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal Silent Knight alarm control panels contain static sensitive components Always ground yourself with a wrist strap before handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the Use static suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies removed from the the instructions in the installation operating and programming manuals These must be followed to avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment operation and reliability depend upon proper installation installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance rates possible it is not a for fire insurance An automatic fire alarm system typically made up of smoke heat detectors manual pull stations audible warning devices and a fire alarm with remote notification capability can provide early warning of a developing fire a system however does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life from a fire Any fire alarm system may fail for a variety of reasons Smoke may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys in or roofs or on the other side of closed doors Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire another level or floor of a building A second floor detector for example may not sense a floor or basement fire Furthermore all types of smoke detectors including ionization photoelectric types have sensing limitations No type of smoke detector can sense every of fire caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed violent explosions gas improper storage of flammable materials overloaded electrical circuits children with matches or arson Smoke detectors must be installed in the same room as the control panel in rooms used by the system for the connection of alarm transmission wiring signaling and or power If detectors are not so located a developing fire damage the alarm system crippling its ability to report a fire Audible warning devices as bells may not alert people if these devices are located on the other side of closed or open doors or are located on another floor of a building A fire alarm system will not without any electrical power If AC power fails the system will operate from standby only for a specified time Rate of Rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced over time For this reason the rate of rise feature of each detector should be tested least once per year by a qualified fire protection specialist Equipment used in the system not be technically compatible with the control It is essential to use only equipment listed service with your control panel Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily disabled The common cause of fire alarm malfunctions however is inadequate maintenance All and system wiring should be tested and maintained by professional fire alarm following written procedures supplied with each device System inspection and should be scheduled monthly or as required by National and or local fire codes written records of all inspections should be kept 1 1 1 of Basic System 1 1 Hardware Features 1 1 Software Features 1 1 this Manual 1 2 Terms Used in
