XLS-270 AND XLS-278 MANUAL PULL STATIONS
-Number of recorded troubles, alarms, and time and date of last alarm.
-Up to 24 possible trouble codes which can be used to specifically diagnose faults.
Automatic Device Mapping:
The loop controller learns where each device's serial number address is installed relative to other devices on the circuit. The loop controller keeps a "map" of the Signature Series devices connected to it.
Signature Series Data Entry Program also uses the mapping feature. With interactive menus and graphic support, the wired circuits between each device can be determined. Layout or
Device mapping allows the Signature loop controller to discover:
-Unexpected additional device addresses.
-Missing device addresses.
-Changes to the wiring in the circuit.
Stand-alone Operation:
A decentralized alarm decision by the station is guaranteed.
Fast Stable Communication:
The lower baud rate offers several advantages including:
-Less sensitivity to circuit wire characteristics.
-Less sensitivity to noise glitches on the cable.
-Less emitted noise from the analog wiring.
-Twisted or shielded wiring is not required.
Diagnostic LEDs:
Twin LEDs provide visual indication of normal and alarm/active conditions. They are visible only when the station is removed from the mounting box. A flashing GREEN LED shows normal system polling from the loop controller. A flashing RED LED means the station is in alarm/active state. Both LEDs on steady shows alarm state in
Installation:
The Signature Series fire alarm manual pull stations mount to North American
Honeywell recommends that these stations be installed according to local codes.
NOTE: This module will not operate without electrical power. As fires frequently cause power interruption, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your fire protection specialist.
Electronic Addressing:
The loop controller electronically addresses each station, saving valuable time during system commissioning. Setting complicated switches or dials is not required. Each station has its own serial number stored in its
Application:
The operating characteristics of the fire alarm stations are determined by their
Testing and Maintenance:
To test (or reset) the station, simply open the station using a special tool and operate the exposed switch.
The station's automatic
Scheduled maintenance should be planned according to local codes.
