ONYX®FIRSTVISION™ Installation and Operation Manual Document 53034 10/29/07 Rev: P/N: 53034:A2 A2 ECN: 07-706
Fire Alarm System Limitations While a fire alarm system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for fire insurance! An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control panel with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
Installation Precautions Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability: WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. The control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized.

Operating Basics of FIRSTVISION Accessing the Log File 4.5 Accessing the Log File FIRSTVISION maintains a log of the most recent 1,000 events from attached devices. Each log entry contains an event number, a time and date stamp, information identifying the device involved, and the state of the device during the event. How you access the log file depends on your connection to FIRSTVISION.
Section 5 The Development of FIRSTVISION 5.1 The Current Situation for a Firefighter When Firefighters arrive on the scene of a building fire emergency, they must gather information to accurately assess the situation and plan their attack on the fire. Prompt assessment is essential—the sooner the seat of the fire and its progression are identified, the sooner the attack on the fire can be planned and launched. With speed and accuracy of response comes a reduction in loss of property and life.
The Development of FIRSTVISION Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION 5.3 Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION FIRSTVISION supports tasks that help Firefighters determine whether a fire is occurring. To illustrate how FIRSTVISION helps the Firefighter, example emergency situations, "Fire Scene 1" and "Fire Scene 2", provide a fire scene scenario and a description of the how Firefighters might use FIRSTVISION in that fire scene emergency. 5.3.
Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION 10 seconds The Development of FIRSTVISION 4. After verifying the building and seeing fire location, the Commander radios firefighting team. As he calls, he continues observation: – Checks layouts of other floors and the roof (as shown in the example in Figure 5.2) to be sure the fire is contained on only those levels. – Checks which detector(s) is activated.
The Development of FIRSTVISION 20 seconds Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION 5. The Commander begins directing the team how to attack the fire: where to enter the building, how to approach the fire area, where to get water, how to vent the fire. 6. The Commander notes that no windows have blown out. Since the room with the fire is directly under the roof, it seems best to vent the smoke through the roof.
Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION The Development of FIRSTVISION Fire Scene 2 In this scenario, the fire is near the front of the building and the main entrance drive, so trucks can be positioned easily. If the fire occurred in a back corner or the far side of the building, the Incident Commander would use the Building Site plan to see safe routes for driving the trucks closer to the fire (as shown in the example in Figure 5.5). Figure 5.
The Development of FIRSTVISION Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION If hazardous materials were stored near the fire, the Commander would touch the Hazard icon to see what the materials were and how to handle fire in the area (as shown in the example in Figure 5.6). Figure 5.
Expected Firefighter Interaction with the FIRSTVISION The Development of FIRSTVISION If the materials were unfamiliar, the Commander could touch the Contact button to see the on call number for the State Hazardous Material expert (as shown in the example in Figure 5.7). That expert would advise the team of dangers, or come personally to the scene. Figure 5.
