Metasys Integrator—Metasys Integrator Notifier AFP-200 Fire Panel Application

Introduction This document explains the Metasys Integrator Notifier AFP-200 Fire Alarm Panel application. Use this document with the Metasys Integrator technical bulletins that provide information on installing and commissioning the Metasys Integrator unit. For information on the AFP-200 Fire Panel, see the Notifier documentation. Please note that this application will also work with the Johnson Controls IFC-200 Fire Panel. Note: If you are using a Universal Packaging Module (UPM), you must install the Metasys Integrator 300 Series in a two high enclosure (EN-EWC25-0) rather than a one high enclosure (EN-EWC13-0) as shown in the figures in this application note. Application Details

The Metasys Integrator unit allows the Notifier AFP-200 Fire Alarm Panel to communicate with the Metasys and Metasys Companion Networks. Once a Notifier AFP-200 Fire Panel is connected to a Metasys or Companion Network via the Metasys Integrator unit, its data is available to the full complement of Metasys Building Automation System (BAS) features, including Change-of-State (COS) monitoring, secondary reporting, alarm and trouble notification, trend, and totalization. Each Metasys Integrator vendor port can connect to one AFP-200 Fire Panel. The AFP-200 Fire Panel has a single Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) that supports up to 99 detectors and 99 modules, plus four Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) designated “Bell Circuits” on the panel. When the AFP-200 Fire Panel is reset, all Binary Input (BI) points are reset to an open or 0 value and any trouble status is cleared.

!

CAUTION: The Metasys Integrator unit is not Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 864 Listed as a fire alarm control unit. It is designed to provide only secondary ancillary monitoring, while the AFP-200 Fire Control Panel provides UL 864 Listed notification and control functions.

Vendor Component Requirements

Integration between the Metasys Integrator unit and Notifier AFP-200 Fire Panel application has been tested with Notifier AFP-200 Firmware Release Version 2.4 and B&B Optical Isolator Model RD232 OP4. B&B Optical Isolator Model RS232 OP4 is required between AFP-200 panel RS-232 port and Metasys Integrator vendor port to eliminate the ground fault. Changes to this equipment or integration of either Notifier or B&B products not discussed in this document require additional software development and testing by Johnson Controls Systems Products. For information on integrating other products, refer to the Custom Integration section of this application note.

When integrating the AFP-200 Fire Panel, consider the following: •

Make sure that the AFP-200 Fire Panel is set up and running properly with Version 2.4 firmware before integrating with a Metasys or Companion system. This includes configuring the AFP-200 Fire Panel’s RS-232 printer port in remote terminal mode. (The Notifier representative is responsible for the configuration and operation of Notifier equipment.)

•

The Metasys Integrator unit is not UL 864 Listed as a fire alarm control unit. It is designed to provide secondary ancillary monitoring only, while the AFP-200 Fire Panel provides notification and control functions.

•

When the AFP-200 Fire Panel is reset, all BI points are set to open state and the trouble status is reset.

•

The AFP-200 Fire Panel must be reset to clear alarms.

•

RS-232 cable distance between the Metasys Integrator unit and the AFP-200 Fire Panel cannot exceed 50 feet.

•

The trouble status is cleared when a device reports a normal or off state.

Metasys Integrator—Metasys Integrator Notifier AFP-200 Fire Panel Application

•

Programming at the AFP-200 Fire Panel will cause the Notifier AFP-200 Fire Panel to go offline. Also, continuous pressing of the panel keys (e.g., Ack/Step) may cause the AFP-200 Fire Panel to go offline at the Metasys Integrator unit.

•

The AFP-200 Fire Panel, when used alone without the Metasys Integrator unit, has a feature that scrolls through trouble messages when multiple messages exist on the system. This feature is not present when the Metasys Integrator unit is connected to the AFP-200 Fire Panel. If multiple messages exist on the system, the Ack/Step key must be pressed to view each individual message.

!

WARNING:

Some change-of-state messages may be missed while running the Diagnostic Analyzer on the Metasys Integrator commissioning PC. Do not run the Metasys Integrator Diagnostic Analyzer after commissioning is complete. Disconnect the Metasys Integrator unit from the AFP-200 printer port while programming the Fire Panel, then reset the AFP-200 panel after reconnecting the Metasys Integrator unit.

Getting Point Summary Information from AFP-200 Fire Panel to Map Points with the Metasys Network

The commissioning person should have the details of point summary at the time of commissioning. If they are not available, collect the status summary from the panel using the following steps: 1.

Disconnect the Metasys Integrator unit from the AFP-200 Fire Panel.

2.

Connect a serial printer at printer port (the same serial port which is used for Metasys Integrator interface).

3.

Press the Enter key at the panel.

4.

Select 2 - read status.

5.

To print all points, press 1 (print points), then Enter. A summary will be printed for all programmed points with their current status. The last three characters in each line of the message are the actual point SLC address.

(For example: D01 is detector at SLC address 01, which is BI-1 in vendor table file IFC2_DET.VCT. M01 is module at SLC address 01, which is BI-1 in vendor table file IFC2_MOD.VCT. B01 is Bell Circuit 1, which is BI-1 in vendor table file IFC2_BEL.VCT.) See Table 2 for detector points, see Table 3 for module points, and see Table 4 for bell/system trouble points.
