information about the nature and location of events can also be displayed.

The PMI contains the site specific program as developed in the Zeus programming
tool. All system logic and supervision is provided by the controller in the PMI. The PMI
and the Zeus programming tool require compatible firmware/software. The tool will
give a warning if the user attempts to use incompatible software to configure a system.

The PMI contains a ¼ VGA monochrome LCD, Touch screen and LEDs for displaying
system status. An audible sounds when there are unacknowledged events on the
PMI. This screen is surrounded by keys that are used to control the displayed informa-
tion and to navigate through these screens. If more items are present than can be
displayed on a single screen, a scroll bar appears to the right of the list. Press the up
and down navigation buttons to the right of the LCD to move through the list. The
selected listing is highlighted in the display. Buttons are also provided to obtain help
and to enter into the menu features of the PMI. See Figure 1-1.

Interface Overview  LEDs blink when an event is reported and unacknowledged (ALARM: red,
SUPERVISORY: yellow, SECURITY: yellow, TROUBLE: yellow). The LEDs glow
steady if all events in the class/queue are acknowledged. An internal audible
alarm sounds steady when there is an unacknowledged fire alarm. It pulses if
all alarms are acknowledged, but there is at least one supervisory, trouble or
security condition.

 Along the top and bottom of the LCD are rows of four soft keys. These soft keys
have no specific function assigned to them. Each of the soft keys is backlit with a
green triangular LED that is used to guide the operator to the available actions.

CHAPTER 1 | PMI OPERATION MANUAL

Tree Structure In most menus, the PMI uses a tree structure to display the elements of the system.
Subordinate items connected to a device are children of that device; the device
connected just above the device is its parent. This tree structure closely resembles
the physical arrangement of elements used in the Zeus programming tool.

Devices that have been organized into groups using the Zeus programming tool
appear on the tree structure in the hierarchy of highest to lowest with the corre-
sponding default names of: Campus (L5), Building (L4), Floor (L3), Area (L2), Zone
(L1). The default names can be changed in Zeus.

Devices that are not in groups are considered to be at the “primitive” level.

Physical View The Physical View on the PMI corresponds to the Physical View in the Zeus program-
ming tool. The elements of the system are displayed in tree format. At the highest
level is the system, followed by the modules, submodules and devices. Devices are
children of modules and submodules. The letters PHY on the second line in the upper
left corner of the screen indicate the display is showing the Physical View. (Refer to
Figure 1-3.)

Geographic View The Geographic View on the PMI corresponds to the Geographic View in the Zeus
programming tool. In the Geographic View, elements of the system are displayed in
the groups that were programmed in Zeus. The letters GEO on the second line in the
upper left corner of the screen indicate the display is showing the Geographic View.
This view is used to Disarm/Arm, Walktest, Bypass ASD for Testing and create
reports.

Changing Views To change from the Physical View to the Geographic View, press the Geographic View
soft key (when available). The soft key will then toggle to read Physical View. The
Physical/Geographic View Soft keys appear when the screen shows the tree structure
of the system, as displayed in Figure 1-3.

ALERT MODE When an Alarm, Security or Supervisory event occurs in the system, the display
enters the Alert or Firefighter’s mode automatically. The events are displayed in
priority order (Alarm, Supervisory, Security, Trouble), the local audible sounds and the
appropriate LED blinks. If the event caused notification appliances to sound, the
Audibles On indicator lights. At the bottom of the screen an Acknowledge soft key is
displayed. Pressing this key acknowledges the event and silences the local audible.

1-6 BASIC OPERATION

Technical Manuals Online! - http://www.tech-man.com


CHAPTER 1 | PMI OPERATION MANUAL

Once all events are acknowledged and audibles silenced, a Reset System soft key
becomes available in the lower right side of the display. If notification appliances were
active, two additional soft keys become available at the bottom of the screen. These
allow the operator to silence or unsilence the notification appliances (audibles). When
the notification appliances are silenced the Audibles Silenced LED lights.

Press the More Info/+ button to display a screen showing details relating to the
selected event. Additional soft keys appear at the bottom of this screen, including one
that displays a map of the area in which the event occurred, provided this information
has been programmed using the Zeus tool. The operator can return to the previous
screen by pressing the (-) button, which is adjacent to the More Info/+ button.

Event counts in PMIs and SSDs may differ because SSDs currently display only
“primitive” (individual) events, while a group PMI whose devices are programmed
into groups in Zeus will display only one queue event per group.

Alarm When an alarm is detected, the red Alarm LED blinks, the System’s internal audible
sounds steady, the Audibles On LED glows steady, and the alarm event displays on the
screen with a blinking exclamation mark (!) See Figure 1-6. The event listing displays the
Event Custom Message, the Time of the event occurrence and the Alarm Event
Category (refer to the Alarm Event: Category Cross Reference Table.

Press this key to acknowledge each alarm and to silence the local audible. The
blinking exclamation point (!) then changes to a check mark (). See Figure 1-6. (If the
system is programmed as NFPA 72D in the Zeus tool, it is necessary to individually
acknowledge each alarm.)

Highlight an event and press the More info + button to go to the Devices screen, as
shown in Figure 1-7. If the selected item is part of a group, the device list will show
the primitive (individual) devices currently off-normal in the event queue. All events in
a group of the same type (i.e., Alarm, Trouble) display together in the devices screen.
Primitive devices that are not part of a group display by themselves. Depending on
how the system is programmed in Zeus, the top event can be a device or a group.

PMI OPERATION MANUAL | CHAPTER 3

WALKTEST A Walktest of the FireFinder-XLS System enables a qualified technician to test the
operation of a specific portion of input points on a system while allowing the
remainder of the system to function normally. A Walktest can be performed by Group
(Geographic view) or by DLC/SIM/HZM/CDC (Physical view). Walktest events are
annunciated on the PMI and logged into the Walktest Log. Testing can be silent or
with audible feedback on all input devices on a DLC module, SIM inputs, HZM
zones, and CDC zones. The following device usages can be walktested:

DEVICE USAGES T HAT CAN BE WALKT EST ED

Alarm Supervisory Security Trouble

Status Waterflow Releasing OSY

When a walktest is started, only devices/components with


usages listed above are walktested. Other usages will operate
normally. For example, if Switch 1 of an HT RI-D is set to Alarm
and Switch 2 is set to Fan Monitor On, then Switch 1 will
generate a Walktest event while Switch 2 will not. Any logic
functions which use Switch 2 will execute.

A device placed in Walktest is disconnected from its usual functions. Alarm causing
devices in Walktest do NOT cause alarms until the Walktest is disabled or has timed out.

A Walktest cannot be enabled if an Alarm or Supervisory exists in the system.

Suggested Procedure In order to reduce the chance of problems, the following procedure must be followed
before performing the Walktest.

1. Inform the person in charge of the FireFinder-XLS System that a Walktest is


to be performed and that part or all (if there is only one DLC) of the fire
detection system will be disabled.

It is strongly advised (and may be required) to notify the fire department of the test.

2. Obtain a printout of the device types and custom messages for the groups
or modules to be walktested by using the FireFinder-XLS Report menu.
a. Press the menu button.
b. The FireFinder tree structure screen displays.
c. If you wish to Walktest by Groups, go to the Geographic View (GEO). If you
wish to Walktest by DLC, SIM, HZM or CDC, go to the Physical View (PHY).
d. In Geographic View, drill down to the group you plan to test. In Physical
View, drill down to the DLC, SIM, HZM or CDC you plan to test.
e. Press the Configuration soft key. Press Cust Msg on the touch screen.
Press the Settings soft key and select All on the touch screen, then
press the View soft key. Press the Print soft key to print out the report.
f. Print out the Cust Msg report for all groups/DLCs/SIMs/HZMs/CDCs to
be Walktested.
3. Review the list(s) with the person in charge of the fire protection equipment
to ensure that the custom messages provide adequate information for
locating and testing the devices in question.

CHAPTER 3 | PMI OPERATION MANUAL

4. Initiate Walktest. Test devices in a predetermined, orderly sequence. Do not


test any devices that are not in the Walktest, as this will cause an alarm in
the system and cancel the Walktest.
5. In order to reduce the possibility of a false alarm, do not perform any
Walktest activations for at least 5 minutes prior to the expiration of the
Walktest or the planned cancellation time. Ensure that all tested devices are
cleared prior to terminating the Walktest.
6. When the Walktest is completed (timed out/disabled), acknowledge the
WALKTEST ACTIVATED trouble condition and reset the panel.

Initiating The Walktest Walktest is initiated from the Maintenance menu. Select either Physical or Geo-
graphic view and drill down to the module [DLC, CDC, HZM (drill down from DLC),
SIM (drill down from NIC)] or group to be walktested. Press the Walktest soft key.

The Group Bells mode is available when walktesting groups. When this option is
selected, all applicable ZIC/voice devices in that group will activate. This will enable
the technician to walktest all devices on a floor, and have only the audibles on that
floor activate, provided the system is configured in floor-specific groups.

Duration And Termination Once enabled, the Walktest remains in effect for four hours. At any time during the
Walktest, the user may extend the Walktest by pressing the Extend soft key on the
Walktest status screen. This will reset the Time Remaining to four hours. The
Walktest may be extended up to four times.

The user may cancel the walktest at any time by pressing the Disable soft key on the
Walktest status screen. After returning to the Alert Screen, Acknowledge the
“Walktest Activated” trouble and reset the panel.

If there is no activity acknowledging Walktest events on the PMI for five minutes, the

In order to ensure that devices return to normal state before the test ends, do not
perform any Walktest activations for at least 5 minutes prior to the expiration of the
Walktest or the planned cancellation time. In order to reduce the possibility of a
false alarm, ensure that all tested devices are cleared prior to terminating the
Walktest.

The Walktest is automatically terminated if an Alarm or Supervisory occurs during


the test to a device that is not being walktested.

After the Walktest is terminated for any reason, the “Walktest Activated” trouble will
remain posted IN on the PMI and full detection functionality will not be restored until
the panel is reset.

When the Walktest is set for Group Bells, only audibles located in the group being
tested will sound; when set for All Bells, all of the audibles will sound. When the
Walktest is set for No Bells, only the strobes will activate. The audibles will sound
in a two seconds on - one second off pattern. The strobes will be on steady and will
be either synchronized or unsynchronized, depending on the system setting.

Do not perform any further Walktest activations after the 5-minute warning or 5
minutes prior to the expiration of the Walktest or the planned cancellation time.

Forty-five seconds before the end of the Walktest, a 45-second audible activation
occurs. When the Walktest is set for Group Bells, only audibles located in the group
being tested will sound; when set for All Bells, all of the audibles will sound. When
the Walktest is set for No Bells, only the strobes will activate. The audibles will
sound in a two seconds on - one second off pattern. The strobes will be on steady
and will be either synchronized or unsynchronized, depending on the system
setting.

Zone coding will not be performed during a Walktest.

Voice Activations The volume for the Walktest channel is set low. During Walktest, speaker zones are

CHAPTER 3 | PMI OPERATION MANUAL

Walktest Event Log A maximum of 5000 Walktest events will be stored in flash memory for reporting.
Walktest events are automatically stored. The storage cannot be disabled by the
user.

Since a full walktest inspection of a system may be performed over a period of days,
weeks and/or months, the Walktest log remains in memory between individual
Walktest sessions. The Walktest log will also persist through database changes,
although not all data will be available for Walktest events from prior databases.

The user may manually erase the Walktest log at the PMI by selecting Report,
Status, Walktest, Clear Log.

Once the Clear Log soft key is pressed, the Walktest log is erased from memory and
cannot be recovered.

When the Walktest event log is full, the panel automatically erases the data.The most
recent 10% of the data is preserved in the new log. Since Walktest data will be lost if
the log is allowed to fill, the user is encouraged to extract the data, generate reports,
and clear the log before it fills.The capacity is intended to allow a full test of all points
on a system to be performed and logged.

Walktest Reports Use the Walktest report feature to show which devices(s) have been tested. Using
the Report, Status, Walktest menu on the PMI, a report can be specified for a list of
all devices tested (complete log) or a list of all devices tested between a specified
