Argus Security SG100 Manuals

SG100 WIRELESS OPTICAL SMOKE DETECTOR ARGUS SECURITY S.R.L. - Via del Canneto, 14 - 34015 - Muggia (TS) - Italy www.argussecurity.it GENERAL DESCRIPTION The wireless optical smoke detector samples the air in the protected area. An alarm condition is raised when the detected environmental smoke quantity exceeds the alarm threshold. DETECTOR VISUAL LED INDICATOR The wireless optical smoke detector is equipped with a LED that provides visual indication for functional modes, battery faults and other fault types (see table 1). LINKING THE DEVICE TO THE SYSTEM This detector must be linked to the fire security system before installation; specifi- cally it must be linked to its translator or expander module as per installation plan. For more detailed information about wireless linking refer to “Guide to wireless system installation” document (APN-W0001) or refer to your sys- tem supplier. This manual gives the specific linking procedure applicable only to this detector. STANDARD LINKING PROCEDURE When the Wirelex program or the translator module is waiting for this device to be linked, perform the following actions: 1) Check that the link switch is on the “ON” position. 2) Extract the isolating tab from the back of the detector (picture 2). Device LED will indicate “operating mode”. 3) Move the switch in position “1” to start the linking phase. Device LED will indicate “linking mode”. 4) If linking went ok, the LED will indicate “normal operating mode”. The link switch MUST be left on “1” from now! 5) If linking failed, the LED will indicate “linking failure mode”; perform the “RECOVERY LINKING PROCEDURE”. 1. Detector 2. Mounting base 3.

If the LED remains switched on the red light it means that the linking operation failed. In this case remove the main battery, switch alternatively the ON / 1 switch a few times in order to discharge the internal capacitor and then start again from point 2). IMPORTANT NOTE! Programming is considered to be completed successfully only if there is an indication of programming success on the detector and on the translator or on the window of the PC configuration program. 5) Put on the battery cover. COMMUNICATION QUALITY ASSESSMENT It is possible to assess the wireless communication quality of the sensor by using a testing feature built in the device. After a successful linking operation, by moving the Link-Programming switch on the ON position, the sensor‟s indicator will start blinking according to table 2. Always remember to reposition the switch to 1 after the assessment operation: device will NOT work operatively while the switch is on the ON position. DETECTOR PLACEMENT For specific information regarding detector spacing, placement and special applications refer to your specific national standards. It is strongly advised to mount the device as far as possible from metal objects, metal doors, metal window openings, etc. as well as cable conductors, cables (especially from computers), otherwise the operating distance may greatly drop. The device should not be installed near electronic devices and computer equipment that can interfere with the reception quality. 1) Select the position of the detector before installing and fixing its supporting base. Verify, from that position, that the communication between the detector and the translator or the expander is correctly established and working (see the COMMUNICATION QUALITY ASSESSMENT paragraph). 2) Install and fix the base, in the selected position, with the screws provided (Picture 5 and Picture 6). 3) Insert the detector onto the base (Picture 5). GENERAL DESCRIPTION The wireless optical smoke detector continuously samples the air in the protected area to provide the earliest warning of fire and yet offers a high level of false alarm rejection. An alarm condition is determined when the level of smoke inside the optical chamber exceeds the alarm threshold; consequently an alarm message is sent to the control panel through its wire to wireless translator module and, eventually, one or more wireless expander modules. The advanced design of the smoke inlet of the optical chamber guarantees a very high rejection to the introduction of dust, effectively increasing the time between maintenance periods. Communication between the detector and the translator / expander modules is wireless, via the „Sagittarius‟ bidirectional protocol. PARTS OF THE PRODUCT DETECTOR’S VISUAL LED INDICATOR The wireless optical smoke detector is equipped with a bicolour LED (red / green) that provides visual indication for functional conditions and battery levels as indicated in table 1. DEVICE’S POWER SUPPLY AND LINKING The linking operation permits the configuration of the wireless optical smoke detector on the translator module. The linking operation described below does not change if made directly from the translator module or from the PC configuration program; please, refer also to the “Guide to wireless system installation” and similar documentation. . 1) Verify that the secondary battery is present; if not, insert the battery into its housing with the positive pole facing up (Picture 2). 2) Move the switch to position ON (Picture 3). 3) Insert the main battery (Picture 4). Ensure that battery polarity is correct. The visual LED indicator switches green once, then four times red (programming mode) and will, successively, turn off. This indicates that the detector is ready to be linked to the translator module. 4) Move the switch in position 1 to trigger the communication between the detector and the translator. The green LED switches on once, then it blinks many times (operating mode), successively the red LED blinks many times (self-adjustment mode) and, finally, after alternating green-red for one second, the indicator turns off: this indicates that the linking procedure has been performed correctly and the detector has programmed itself . 928k/01 Table 1 Status description LED indicator signal Switching into “operating mode”; occurs after main battery insertion. 4 short red LED blinks. Switching into “programming mode”; occurs immediately after the linking phase is started. Green LED Short blinks. “Self-adjustment” mode; occurs during the linking phase: device is programming itself with the wireless system parameters. Red LED blinking: 1 second on and 0.1 second off. Normal active mode or device unpowered No signal from LED. Alarm condition Red LED blinking: 0.5 second on and 0.5 second off. Main battery fault (low level) Orange blinking: 0.1 second on and 5 seconds off. Secondary battery fault (low level) Green LED blinking: 0.1 second on and 5 seconds off. Both batteries fault Sequential orange-green LED blinking: 0.1 second on and 5 seconds off. Tamper fault No signal from LED Other fault type (fault on the optical analysis path, high level of contamination inside the optical chamber...) Sequential orange-green LED blinking: 0.5 second each colour.
