RE – 2504 RE – 2508 Automatic Fire Alarm Control Panel (Protective premises Unit) Installation, Commissioning & Operating User Manual
Fire Alarm System Limitations An automatic fire alarm system–typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual Call Points, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control 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.
The amount of "smoke" present may be insufficient to alarm smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such density levels are not created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will not go into alarm. Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limitations. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which have little visible smoke.
Please note that: • Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in people with conditions such as epilepsy. • Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a fire alarm signal, do not respond or comprehend the meaning of the signal. It is the property owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other training exercise to make people aware of fire alarm signals and instruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.

Chapter 3: 3.1 Installation Installation Precaution Installation Precautions WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this unit until this manual is read and understood.
Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all IDC’s loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage. Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability: Like all solid-state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightninginduced transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning transients and interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility.

Restoral: When the fault condition is cleared, the panel will perform the following automatically: ¾ Turn off the fault LEDs. ¾ Turn off the zone fault LED/ NAC fault / power fault LED. ¾ Turns off the buzzer tone. ¾ Deactivate the fault relay. The LCD screen will be as below. DD/MM/YY HH:MM Ravel Electronics System Healthy Note: The Fault occurred will not affect the other normal functions of the panel 5.3.5. Disable/W.
Walk Test: Disable/W.T LED Blinking identifies the corresponding Zone, which is under walktest. If this LED is illuminates continuously then it identifies that particular zone is disabled. The walk test mode helps the user to test each device in that particular zone by a single person. During walk test mode, if any Fire is identified, the panel will be silenced and reset automatically after 4 seconds and 2 seconds respectively.
5.3.6. Alarm Verification: This Alarm verification feature is applicable only to the IDC’s in the zone in which only smoke detectors are used. If the alarm verification is selected IDC, the smoke detector activation will cause the FAP to reset the detector by removing the power for 3.5 Seconds. Power is reapplied to the detectors and restart period 12 Seconds begins to stabilize all the detectors. If no other detector alarm, there will no alarm indication in FAP during Retard - Reset - restart period.
