Field-Device Programmer / Test Unit

Every Model FDOOT441 intelligent detection device is compatible with the Siemens field-device programmer / test unit

(Model DPU

| 8720), which is a compact, portable, menu-driven accessory for electronically programming and testing

these addressable detectors promptly and reliably. For instance, the field technician selects the accessory’s program mode,

and enters the desired address.

Model DPU

| 8720 eliminates the need for cumbersome, unreliable mechanical programming methods (e.g. – dials and

rotary switches) and reduces installation and service costs by electronically programming and testing the detector prior to

installation. When set in `test’ mode, Model DPU | 8720 will perform a series of diagnostic tests without altering the

address or other stored data, allowing technicians to determine if the detector is operating properly.

Each field-device programmer / test unit operates on

AC power or rechargeable batteries, providing flexibility and

convenience in the programming / testing of fire-safety equipment from practically any location.

Additionally, with the use

of a Model DPU

| 8720, there is no longer a cause for concern with any vibration, corrosion and other deteriorating

conditions that could negatively affect any electro-mechanical-addressing mechanism.

Field-selectable application profiles

Model FDOOT441 provides 22 user-friendly, field-selectable application profiles, identified with universally known names

(e.g.

for a complete list and description of application profiles.

Due to generic-name classifications, no cross-reference tables are required as the application name resides in the panel’s

configuration tool. This user-friendly feature

─ along with the algorithms provided by ASAtechnology ─ provides a reliable,

field-configurable detector suitable for an array of applications.

Field-selectable temperature settings

Model FDOOT441 provides five (5) field-selectable temperature thresholds, ranging from 135°F to 175°F (57°C to 79°C),

with fixed and rate-of-rise options. These ranges provide maximum flexibility to program and to easily adjust the

temperature settings that suit multi-application needs with a building or in changing environmental conditions.

Additionally, Model FDOOT441 can be configured to provide a low-temperature warning signal at 40°F (4.4°C). This

configuration (along with connection to a compatible fire-alarm control panel [FACP]) meets NFPA 72 requirements for

sprinkler-temperature monitoring, and serves to prevent water freezing inside pipes, relative to water-based suppression

systems.

Ambient supervisory feature for temperature-threshold ranges

Another highlight for Model FDOOT441 is supervision of ambient temperatures, allowing the end user to set a specified,

unique warning point at a customized temperature threshold ranging from

4°F to 120°F (

20°C to 49 °C). This feature is

practical for monitoring of machinery; special processes, or for environments where maintaining a temperature is critical as

an early-warning supervisory signal.

Self-monitoring for smoke-sensor sensitivity

Model FDOOT441 provides an automatic, self-monitoring sensitivity check that complies with the NFPA 72 sensitivity

requirements. When connected with a compatible FACP, it provides automatic, dynamic sensitivity verification within the

agency-listed-and-approved limits. Besides checking for sensor integrity and automatic environmental compensation,

Model FDOOT441 provides a display and report of sensitivity in percent-per-foot (or percent-per-meter) at the FACP.

Profile Overview

Each Model FDOOT441 intelligent detector contains one (1) tri-color LED indicator, capable of flashing anyone (1) of three

(3) distinct colors: G

REEN, YELLOW, or RED. During each flash interval, the microprocessor-based detector monitors the

following:

• Smoke in its sensing chamber

• Smoke sensitivity is within the range indicated on the nameplate label

• Internal sensors and electronics
