Preliminary information
34K Control Panels
This manual covers the Vigilon range of control
panels and does not specifically cover the
34K 4-Loop Control Panel.
For information on 34K 4-Loop Control panel refer
to Vigilon BS 4-Loop Control panel in this manual,
as both ranges of panels have version 3+ software
and the only difference is in the branding.
Safety information
&
Preliminary information
1. Do not remove or replace printed circuit boards, fuses or attempt to wire the
control panel with the panel powered up. Always power down the mains supply
at the fused spur unit and disconnect the battery supply to the panel.
Pre-visit checks
Ensure there are accurate as fitted wiring drawings available, 2 copies are required.
Any damaged equipment has been noted for replacement.
Ensure access will be provided to system equipment installed in the protected
premises.
The installer (electrical contractor) will be in attendance until the installation is
proved.
Site contact or representative will be available during the visit.
Ensure the commissioning tool along with the associated cables and printer, plus
instructions, are available.
Ensure spare parts are available, such as:
MCP glasses
MCP test key
Printer paper roll
Equipment door keys.
Pre-commissioning
Check the installation of fire alarm equipment with reference to the most recent as
fitted wiring drawings.
2. When powering up always power-up the mains supply first before the battery
supply. The power-down should be done in reverse order.
3. When installing the cards into the master control board or backplane always
use anti-static work procedures.
Vigilon 4/6 loops & Compact (VA) panels & network nodes
Earth leads
All earth leads supplied with the system equipment must be securely fitted to
maintain earth continuity.
Parts for later installation
All unused parts should be retained in their respective container for safe keeping until
required.
Loop wiring
The loop cable should have been connected to the appropriate terminals at each
device, as shown in the installation manual in accordance with the as fitted wiring
drawings.
Enclosure
Access into equipment enclosure is usually by means of opening an outer door/cover.
A panel may also have an inner door which will also need opening.
Unattended equipment
Where equipment is to be left unattended, then it is important to close the door /cover
for safety.
Copper fingers
Copper fingers are conductive spring like strips fitted to metal assemblies. They are
fitted to shield against electromagnetic and radio frequency interferences.
Ensure the copper finger strips are intact and no damage has occurred. Damaged
fingers will reintroduce the gap to let in/out interferences.
Static precaution
The discharge of static electricity can damage or degrade sensitive electronic
components on printed circuit boards. Anti-static procedures should be followed
when handling static sensitive boards.
&
It is important that anti-static procedures are NOT carried out on live equipment.
Removal and disconnection
Any disconnection of cables or removal of parts of an assembly must be restored and
replaced.
Battery
To prevent damage to batteries and equipment, the terminals of the battery must not
simultaneously touch any conductive part of the equipment enclosure.
Sealed lead acid battery can have a useful life of up to 5 years from the date of
manufacture, it is strongly recommended that batteries are replaced after 4 years. The
batteries must be disposed of correctly by following battery manufacturers
recommendations.
Powering up
When equipment is being powered up always connect the mains supply before the
battery supply. Power-down should be done in reverse order.
&
Panel Buzzer
It may be necessary during commissioning to switch Off the panel buzzer. It is
possible to selectively switch the disablement, fault, fire, supervisory and command
build buzzer sound to Off or On. It is important to ensure that the buzzer is switched
On for normal operation after commissioning.
Fire plan
The system should be tested in accordance with the project specification.
Sensor cover
Each fire sensor installed in the system should have been fitted with a dust cover
during installation. The dust covers must be removed from all the fire sensors after the
panel loops have been satisfactorily powered-up and with addresses allocated to each
device ready for further checks and tests.
Site specific installation
Plant equipment interfaced to the system should be tested to recommendations made
in the project specification.
Test mode (EN - V4) & Commission Mode (BS - V3+)
During commissioning of the system you will need to switch On the Test/Commission
mode. It is important to switch Off the test/commission mode after the work is over, to
ensure the system operates normally.
Informing responsible persons
It is important to inform the person(s) responsible for the fire alarm system that
the system is being commissioned.

PANEL
The monitored input at the fire panel is activated by an external switch installed a maximum of
100m cable distance away from the fire panel. The input is monitored for both short and open
circuit faults. When the input is active it triggers the command build number 250 of the fire panel.
Example
The following example shows how to configure the monitored input at the panel to provide an
output sound signal 1 alarm in sector 2 of loop 1 as a reversible action. This means on operating or
"closing" the monitored input the panel will start alarm in sector 1 and on releasing or "opening" the
monitored input the panel will stop all the alarm from sounding.
The following procedures assume a password entry is not required.
Press Menu On/Off button and select [SetUp] -> [Usercode]#, momentarily press <etc> to select
[SetUp] -> [Build] and type in the command build number 250, select [Action] -> [UserCode],

The switching of the LEDs CB253 and CB254 is controlled by action of command builds 253 and
254 respectively. The switching action must be configured during commissioning.
The U1 and U2 buttons are accessible by opening the panel outer door.
On operating the U1 or U2 at the panel it will cause triggering of command build number 251 (for
button U1) or command build number 252 (for button U2). During commissioning the required
command build action must be configured.
This example shows how to configure the panel such that by activating an interface input (can be a

Definition
Application
Heat Grade 2
Optical smoke normal sensitivity
Suitable for most applications. Provides smoke detection to meet BS5445:Part 7 and
provides heat detection to meet Grade 2 as defined in BS5445:Part 5.
State 1
Used in areas or situations where airborne smoke or dust is unlikely to occur and therefore
a more sensitive detection is available.
State 5
Where high ambient temperatures of greater than 40oC are expected in the detection area.
This state is useful in hotel bedrooms where low levels of signals could occur for short
durations. If smoke and heat occur simultaneously, the time delay is effectively overridden
to provide fast detection.
State 10
Similar performance to state 8 but without the time delay overridden. Useful in hotel
bedrooms and loading bays where low levels of signals may occur.
State 11
Used for smoke detection in areas where airborne particles or smoke is normally present,
or high temperatures (up to 40oC) can be normally attained.
73
The release of control panel software (MCC/MCB equal to or greater than V4.41):
If a non defined STATE is selected during commissioning then the control panel will revert to STATE 0.

Commissioning tool manual.
Plant equipment
"
Prior to any functional tests being carried out on the system, all plant
equipment should be isolated.
Tests should be carried out following customer consent. It may also be necessary to
obtain third-party consent depending on the plant equipment connected to the panels

All the tests on plant equipment should be as agreed during the project design stage.
76
The Commissioning mode is applicable for BS Vigilon 4-loop panels only. It places all the zones of
the system into test state.
The 'Commission' mode may be used when testing the system. It allows the engineer
to test devices without having to return to the panel to perform silence alarms and
reset. While the panel is in the Commissioning mode, following a fire event the alarm
sounds for 5 seconds and then automatically performs a silence alarm sequence and
thereafter a panel reset.
To put the control panel into or out of the 'commissioning mode': Press Menu On/Off
button and select [Test/Eng]. Select [UserCode] and enter the Engineering password,
this need only be done if an Engineering password is set up. Press <etc> and select

switch settings are now located on DKC
On EN panels the DKC switches set the Domain
address, which must all be the same value
for a single network without domain bridge.
The display will provide a list in cabling order the addresses of panels in the
networked system.
These are examples of different networks. The lowest address 1 is normally the
network controller.

Check cable lengths and type used.
Check wiring, connections and earthing arrangements. Check the network cable is
correctly earthed to the equipment.
Replace network card at point of failure.
Check the addresses and baud rates of the input output and network cards of the
networked panels.
It may be necessary to escalate an investigation to:
look at the noise voltage between conductors, screen and earth.

Always reset the Network Card first when rechecking for errors, using
[Test/Eng] -> [Card] ->[Reset] -> Network Card number, normally Card 6.
The networked system may now be configured for network commands to be actioned, such as
master sectors and global controls as per site requirements.

Vigilon 4/6 loops & Compact (VA) panels & network nodes
Up to 64 small Vigilon networks can be connected together in a secure loop by using domain bridge fibre optics network card
(VIG-NC-DOM-FO), with the card installed in socket P7 of the backplane. This allows the display of events at any control panel in
the connected networks.

Vigilon 4/6 loops & Compact (VA) panels & network nodes
This appendix lists all the messages that are likely to be displayed at the Vigilon control panel /
Network Node. There are some fault events that are not self clearing and will require manual
intervention.
Ground break
To repair the fault at the control panel press the Menu on/Off button -> [Test/Eng] -> [UserCode]
-> enter your PIN (where necessary) -> [Loop] -> <etc> -> <etc> -> [Repair] -> [Loop] -> enter
the loop number on which the fault resides -> [Enter].
Unrecoverable Tx fault
Checksum error
FLASH Configuration data and FLASH in sensors
The messages displayed at the control panel, network node or loop repeat panels are given here in
an alphanumerical order to provide guidance:
on a 'fault message'
"
Only the messages that are applicable will appear on the display of the control
panel, network node or loop repeat panels. Additionally the display will identify the panel
where the event was first detected.

This appendix provides guidance on factors that must be taken into consideration when applying
standalone system functions, such as:
labels
Labels
Labels are given to identify location of areas on a site
A previously created label can be modified
"
Where manual call points are being used then each can only have a label of up
to 28 characters.
When an interface input is operated the standalone systems (local) control panel
buzzer can only be activated by configuring the input to trigger a command
build. In this case the command build should not have actions.
131
Commissioning instructions
Long labels
Long labels having up to 64 characters can be given to devices and command builds. This is achieved by replacing commonly used words with token values (special codes). Tokenised labels :When
tokens are decoded, a trailing space is automatically added to the decoded word. Likewise when a label is being tokenised, the word must have a space following it, or be at the end of a line. Therefore
a token word cannot be followed with a comma, dash or other such character.
To switch on long labels: Press the Menu on/Off button -> [Test/Eng] -> [UserCode] -> enter your PIN (where necessary) -> <etc> -> [Config] -> <etc> -> [Label] -> [On] -> [Enter].
"
Banks 0, 1 and 2 show the list of tokens used by the software to reduce the character label to 32 characters or less.

and alarm sounders of S-Quads, S-Cubed and DAU devices.
Fixed extinguishant inputs / outputs are automatically assigned to sector 29. Note the Fixed
extinguishing interface unit is no longer a part of the product range.
To manually configure the default fire plan using the set up menu:
Assign all device and IO lines to sector 1
and then action all sectors (except sectors 29-32) on all sectors to signal 2.
To remove the default fire plan.
If the system is not intended to operate with the default Fire Plan, then do exactly the same
as making the default fire plan, but this time replace the [Assign] with [Remove]. Also
remove IO lines.
All sensors, call points, sounders and interface lines are now completely separate from each
other.
certain sector assignments have been lost due to system power down and
subsequent NVM recovery conflict on system power up, the sounders will still
operate in the event of a fire.
the fail safe mechanism will involve leaving Sector 1 on each loop free from
any device assignment, as any devices that lose their sector assignment will
default to Sector 1.
the following action will give an evacuate tone to any alarm sounders that have
defaulted to Sector 1:
Action all sectors (except sectors 29-32)

between 16% to 100% sound output.
The Mark II S-Cubed or S-Quad Speech sounder function is provided by stored messages on a
flash memory chip within the assembly. The standard flash memory can hold up to 20 seconds of
audio and additionally it holds local complex attention tones, such as the bell and DIN signals.
All S-Cubed in a system can share a common soft start facility, if set the sound output Each signal output from a Mark II S-Cubed or S-Quad Speech device consists of an attention tone
will increment the volume every 0.25s from a defined start level to maximum output.
S-Cubed operating in tone mode allows selection from a range of low and high
frequency tones that are outputted according to FAB/SAB settings, see sounders

Ideally two people in communication with each other will help the setting up of the
beam sensor pair. While one person aligns the beam sensor head, another person
operates the controls and reads measurements given at the control panel.
The following procedures use the terms head, device and outstation interchangeably.
It is assumed that each beam sensor head is mounted on an angle bracket. Also the procedures for
the IP rated beam and for beam sensor pairs mounted on parallel brackets are similar.
Identification
The beam sensor heads have a black plastic circular label surrounding the lens for
identification.
The 2-way base has a black plastic cover fitted over the electronics.
"
Before aligning the sensor heads check to ensure all bracket and base fixing
screws are securely fitted. After alignment ensure the pivot pins and adjusters are
secure.

select [Loop] and type in the loop number on which the receiver resides,
select [Enter] and read the time averages on channel 2 of the receiver
head, this should be between 140-170 bits. After each adjustment wait for
5 seconds for a change in the reading.

For time average reading above 200 bits carry out an autogain to minimise the
need to fine adjust. To enter auto gain press Menu On/Off button and select [Test/Eng] ->
[Usercode] -> [Loop] -> and momentarily press <etc> to select [AutoGain] and type in the
receiver device number, select [Loop] and enter the loop on which the receiver reside
and select [Enter].

Unlock the lock nuts to allow Y axis adjustment and using the adjusters
move the transmitter head in Y direction, then:
stop on reaching a time average reading 5 bits below the peak value
while counting the number of turns, adjust in the opposite direction to reach 5 bits
below the peak value
finally turn the adjuster half the number of counted turns, towards the peak and
then stop
