Security: Intrusion

Issue   Trouble tones will clear and then return one hour later.   Solution   RF Sensor Low Battery With earlier revisions of panel firmware, users could silence a low RF fire sensor battery trouble indefinitely. With revision 3.03 (or later), the panel restarts the trouble sounder at the keypad within four hours if the low battery in the fire sensor is not replaced.

Output A can be configured as a Form C, Com reference or as a Dry contact depending on how you put the jumper under the panel cover. This article will help you to find out how you can configure output A (1) on the B Series Panel.

Use the Menu function ‘MASER ARM’ to arm either selected areas or all areas that the user has authority in, which are in the scope of the keypad.  Previously armed areas remain armed while the remaining disarmed will arm.  For example, if a panel uses areas 1-8 and: The keypad has Panel Wide Scope and the user has authority only in areas 1, 2, 3 & 4, then only areas 1, 2, 3 & 4 will Master Arm. If the keypad has Custom Scope in areas 1 & 2 user has authority in areas 1, 2, 3 & 4, then only areas 1 & 2 will arm. Use the Menu function ‘MASER ARM’: Access the keypad Menus from the keypad. Press the NEXT key until the MASTER ARM ? function is displayed and select [ENTER]. Enter a valid passcode and press [ENTER]. The display shows MASTER ARM ALL ?, select [ENTER]. The command center displays ARMING X,X,X,X…  where X= the available and authorized areas to arm. 

Overview: Bosch Security Systems D113 Battery Lead Supervision Module provides supervision of the battery lead connection between the module and one or two batteries in a 12 VDC system. The D113 meets NFPA 72 requirements for Battery Lead Supervision for Fire Alarm Panels. Issue When is a D113 module needed?   Solution   When a fire panel is using more than 1 backup battery for back up power and or when using more than 1 battery and battery supervision is required or wanted for the system. Note: August 2001 Release Notes Affects: D113 Installation Manual (P/N: 74-07468-000-B) Avoid Short Circuits - Short circuits on the charger wiring between the D113 and the control panel will damage the D113 module. To prevent damage to the module or panel, and possible personal injury, avoid shorting any control panel battery wiring. Battery Fault Signaling - There are two ways that the D113 signals a fault condition: with the supervisory output connected to the zone input of a panel and through the charger wires from the panel. As long as the D113 module is properly receiving power to operate, it will indicate faults using the supervisory output. If the D113 loses power (for example, batteries are connected backwards), the supervisory output may restore and be replaced by a battery fault that is detected through the charger leads. A restoral on the zone input, which is replaced by a control panel battery fault, indicates total failure of the battery  system.         Part numbers D7212B, D9112B, D7212B1, D9112B1, D7212, D7412, D9112, D9124, D9412, D7212G, D7412G, D7412G, D9124G, D9412G, D7212GV2, D7412GV2, D7412GV2, D9124GV2, D9412GV2, D7212GV3, D7412GV3,D7412GV3, D9412GV3, D7212GV4, D7412GV4, D7412GV4, D9412GV4, B8512G, B9512G

Issue The FA113 will not arm the panel if it was disarmed from the keypad and will not disarm if panel was armed from the keypad Solution Used as an arm/disarm device, the FA113 is configured to panel zone 74 or 194. Pressing the FA113 Off button sends an OPEN signal to the control panel and pressing the On button sends a NORMAL signal to the control panel. The area should be both Armed and Disarmed by the FA113 for it to function correctly. When the arming state is changed by the FA113, then by another means, the FA113 becomes unable to detect the current armed state of the area and will not respond to the keys pressed. Correct settings for FA113: The transition of the state of point 74 is what causes the area to arm or disarm. • Mode in the D8125INV is set to 4. • Keyswitch Maintained point (Point Type 4) with  Point Response 2, is  required for  the FA113. • Area will arm with a transition from open to normal on point 74. • Area will disarm with a transition from normal to open on point 74. The FA113 is also used for panic on point 75 (7412G) and point 195 (9412G).
