New Zealand Operation

 

12.1GENERAL

New Zealand mode operation may be enabled on an NDU but not on an F3200 fire panel.

An NDU with New Zealand mode enabled may be connected to a Panel-link network of panels which also have “New Zealand” mode enabled. The NDU may be used with or without a MAF board, and optionally with a NZ Display Extender board. The NDU may not have any RZDU or RDU connected to it.

If a MAF board is used, the NDU may be used as the main brigade connection point of the network. The MAF board has relays for signalling alarm (normally energised), fault (normally de-energised) and standby (normally energised and normally wire-ORed with fault). The MAF board also provides a supervised BELL relay, two supervised ancillary relays, and an “isolate” relay; all of which can be controlled by output logic if desired.

12.2

NZ DISPLAY EXTENDER BOARD

The New Zealand extender board, if fitted, is added to the end of the 16 zone LED display board chain (if any), and provides the common Normal, Defect, and Fire LEDs, as well as other New Zealand specific inputs and outputs.

The last 16 zone LED display board must have link Lk1 not fitted. If there are no 16 zone LED display boards then the New Zealand display extender board is connected directly to J13 on the Controller.

The New Zealand Display Extender board has the following inputs and outputs.

Inputs (all active low)

Trial Evac/Sprinkler operated (shared)

Silence alarms

External defect

Lamp test

Services restore

Brigade test/brigade isolate (shared)

Evac defect

Outputs

Fire LED

Defect LED

Normal LED

Ancil defect

Ancil fire

Lamp

Evac Defect/External Defect

The Defect and External Defect inputs may be programmed as to whether a defect is signalled for them or not. If defect is not signalled then they can be used as general purpose inputs accessible in output logic.
