Fire

The controller is showing faults but when you access the faults option no errors/fault messages are shown, message 'no suitable element' is shown. Why?

This guide gives a example of how to check that OPC is receiving commands and transmitting to controller.

This is how to troubleshoot where turning the key to the Test position does not put the smoke detector inside the duct enclosure into alarm, which will likely be due to the coil is missing.

Any related HW change in the FSM server will lead to license not being valid and will need to be transferred.

Do you want to move the license activated on existing computer/server to another computer/server (FSM - Fire Monitoring System)?

The operator 10000 is shown when detector fault/ Fire is acknowledged on the controller when no operator is logged in (e.g. Operator 2), by pressing the Acknowledge button.

Learn from this article how to enable usage type Fire on KD55 element from Bosch Remote Programming Software (RPS)

This articles shows where can you restart the activation or delay period in FSP-5000-RPS if a new activation is triggered

This article explains why the fire status display of the controller does not show all fire detectors in fire condition.

The table below shows the current FSM, FSI and MPC versions compatibility:  

With FSM 5.6  the database.xml structure was slightly changed and FSM 5.6 is supporting only the new database.xml structure. This is leading after upgrade to a loss of the configured symbols (only the symbols, not the content of the devices configured on the floor plans). Therefore after upgrading from older FSM version (e.g. 5.2) to 5.6, the already configured symbols of sensors on maps are not shown correctly, they are shown are dots/circles.   Please note: If before executing the file provided below the application was opened and the sensor properties were edited by approving > at that step the symbols changed to the default symbol and the previously configured symbol cannot be recovered.

If the Item "Panel" is e.g. 1-1.1.1 respectively 1-1.SI_PANEL.1,then this item is the Group item of the panel system status items e.g. 1-1.1.1-1 till 1-1.1.1-10. Most of these system status items have NORMAL as value after startup, others can have ON, e.g. items from Condition Monitoring.

Use the tool provided when FSM server application is installed, to manage export/import of configurations. Please note: This tool is only for configuration backup and does not include logs and history.

A sticker on the front of the B450 indicates proper switch positions for selecting various SDI or Option Bus addresses (see figure 1). Figure 1 Sticker with address configurations   There are 2 types of FPD-7024 panels. It must first be determined which is in use before selecting the B450 address: Newer types with firmware version 1.06 and higher. These types are identified by icons on the keypad instead of words (see figure 2). Older types with firmware version 1.03 and lower. These types are identified by words on the keypad. Figure 2 Version 1.06 with Icons vs 1.03 with words   Version 1.06 & newer types: When used as sole communicator or backup to phone line, set the address wheel at 9 for Option Bus address 250. When used as backup to a primary network communicator, set the address wheel at 6 for Option Bus address 134. RPS connections require Option Bus address 250. Be sure the address wheel is set at 9 on the network communicator intended for RPS connections (Ethernet is preferred when allowed). Version 1.03 and older types: Use Option Bus address 250. Only one network communicator is available on these panel types.

Question I get to the FPA-1000 browser Start page. When I click on Login I get the following message: Invalid PIN - A PIN must be a 4 Digit number. Please check that Number Lock is On. What should I do?   Answer   Add the FPA-1000-UL IP address to the list of trusted sites, and your login will work correctly. A Crossover cable is required to connect directly to the panel. To enable JavaScript and cookies in Internet Explorer, add the FPA-1000-UL IP addresses to the list of Trusted Sites: Tools menu: Select Internet Options. Select the Security tab. In the settings for Trusted Sites, click Sites. Add the FPA-1000-UL IP address to the list of trusted sites.
