Simplex TrueAlarm Fire Alarm Sys PC Products for Life Safety 4190-9008 BACpac Portal

UL Listed BACpac portal provides fire alarm status using the ASHRAE BACnet automation communication protocol protocol reference BACnet stands for Building Automation Control Reference ANSI ASHRAE standard 135 1995 To fire alarm system via RS 232 computer output port Output port provides RS 232 Point to Point BACnet portal is pre programmed Up to 600 status changes monitor point status can be from the fire alarm control panel Custom programming is easily accomplished at the alarm control panel is mounted separately from fire alarm panel Cabinet is NEMA 1 Portal is UL Listed to Standard 2017 Category power is 120 VAC Signal Appliances Miscellaneous Simplex fire alarm control panels Simplex 4100U Series fire alarm control panels and Display Units NDU 4020 4100 and 4120 Series fire alarm panels and Network Display Units NDU Software revision updating may be required 4190 9008 BACpac portal provides a supplementary interface that converts computer terminal from a compatible Simplex fire alarm control into the building automation protocol of BACnet this portal status information from the fire alarm panel can be provided to other components of the automation network with the detail and format required This allows the other to properly respond to fire alarm system activity addition to the primary fire alarm response that is under control of the fire alarm control panel

12 2005 Responsibilities Detection and Alarm Systems are distributed buildings to monitor for indications of the of smoke or fire When a fire alarm condition is the fire alarm system communicates that with sufficient detail to allow the proper fire to begin The fire alarm system may perform control functions such as fan shutdown and elevator or those actions may be performed by other that also handle those functions for normal as well as for abnormal conditions Automation Systems As buildings increase size and complexity control of the electrical and systems requires coordination This process evolved into the general category of Building Systems and includes systems such as heating and air conditioning HVAC elevator security controls lighting controls and other building functions responses to fire alarm system status changes include HVAC fan control operation elevator lighting control and security system awareness examples could include turning on lighting needed aiming security cameras on specific areas door release and implementing detailed fan and or pressurization instructions Communications Between Systems Building need to be integrated as fully as possible communications have included simple relay proprietary and complicated interface devices as well as using a single supplier for all of the automation functions Each of these compromises its limitations the Simplex BACpac portal the common building language of the BACnet protocol allows a Simplex alarm system to be considered based upon its fire alarm and not simply on its interconnection capability Example example to the right shows how a smoldering fire on the first floor can be detected by the fire alarm panel processed by the BACpac portal and then to the building automation system using the BACnet It is the responsibility of the fire alarm control to initiate the required notification and related fire However when connected to a BACpac portal fire alarm system can make status information to the other building systems allowing them to informed about facility fire detection activity FLOOR SMOKE ALARM protocol format Instance 1 4190 9008 Portal terminal format M1 1 IS NORMAL am 11 DEC 00
