Chapter 1 Introduction to the 4100U Fire Alarm System Introduction The 4100/4100U is an expandable fire alarm system that can be used as a standalone system with one host panel, or as a wide-ranging system with several remote cabinets, with or without multiple host panels. This chapter is an overview of standalone, MINIPLEX, and network 4100 system concepts. In this Chapter Refer to the page number listed in this table for information on a specific topic.
System Configurations Overview The 4100U is available as a standalone system with one host panel, or as an expansive system with several remote back boxes, with or without multiple host panels. The type of configuration used depends on the size of the site into which it is being installed. The following types of configurations are offered: Standalone. Comprised of one FACP and its assorted warning devices, initiating devices, and signaling line circuit devices. MINIPLEX.
Standalone Configuration Overview The standalone version of the 4100U is used for smaller or single-building applications. A standalone system is ideally placed into a small building that requires a limited number of notification appliances and initiating devices. If a small building is being expanded, or if other buildings are being constructed in the same general area (as in a campus application), the standalone 4100U can be expanded into one of the larger systems described later.
MINIPLEX Configuration Overview The MINIPLEX version of the 4100 Fire Alarm System, which is designed for moderately larger applications than the standalone configuration, allows up to 1000 monitor and/or control points and 2000 annunciator points to be controlled by a single FACP. Like the standalone system, only one CPU is used. Remote Unit Interface (RUI) data, and optionally power is distributed from the host panel to remote boxes called transponder cabinets.
MINIPLEX Configuration, Continued RUI Communication The 4100 internal comms bus may be used to carry data from the CPU in the main cabinet to expansion equipment in a co-located cabinet. 4100 data from the CPU may be routed to remote cabinets (RTUs) in a MINIPLEX system by using the external RUI comms bus. An RUI line, routed from either the CPU Motherboard in the 4100U, or the RUI card in the 4100, allows the data to travel long distances.
Network Configuration Overview The 4100 can be expanded to a network system by using network interface cards (NICs). When a NIC is installed into a 4100 host panel, it is used to connect to other network nodes. Nodes may consist of other host 4100 panels, or they may be completely different: Graphical Command Centers (GCCs), and Visual Command Centers (VCCs) are all examples of what could be used as nodes.
Network Configuration, Continued Connecting Loops Network loops can be joined via physical bridge cards. There may be no more than two Style 7 network loops (two hub configurations) connected in tandem. For every two loops that are interconnected (using one physical bridge), there can be a maximum of three physical bridges used in a star configuration. See Figure 1-4.
4100 PIDs (Non-4100U) The following is a list of existing 4100+/A cards and modules that may be used with 4100U.
4100U Cabinet Part Identification Numbers (PIDs) Overview This section lists all cabinet (back box) PIDs for the 4100U Fire Alarm System.

Chapter 2 Installing 4100U FACP Components Introduction 4100U cabinets are available in one-, two-, and three-bay sizes. Each can be equipped with a solid or perspex door. This chapter describes how to mount all types of 4100U cabinets to a wall, and how to mount system card bays into the cabinets, modules to bays, etc. FACPs are assembled to order within the factory. Steps 2 to 6 below are therefore not typically required in the field, but are included in case of in-field system expansion.
Introduction to FACPs (4100U) Overview 4100U FACPs cabinets contain the CPU, operator interface, system power supply (SPS), backup batteries, and any additional modules that the panel requires. The FACP is the central hub (often referred to as a host panel) of a standalone or MINIPLEX fire alarm system. In a networked system, the FACP can be connected to other system FACPs, so that each host panel is a node on the network.
Introduction to FACPs (4100U), Continued Master Motherboard The 4100U Master motherboard that houses the CPU card is central to the 4100U system. It mounts in the first bay, occupying four inches of space on the right hand side. Neither has a card address DIP switch (the CPU is address 0).
Introduction to FACPs (4100U), Continued Master Controller Daughter Card The master controller daughter card mounts onto the master motherboard. The master controller daughter card contains a service port, a direct drive user interface connection, and a port for a service modem.
Introduction to FACPs (4100U), Continued Master Controller Daughter Card LEDs The master controller daughter card LEDs indicate Bootloader status as shown in the table below. Table 2-1. Master Controller LEDs 1 through 4 Status Condition LED4 LED3 LED2 LED1 On (0.25s), Off (0.25s) On (0.25s), Off (0.25s) On (0.25s), Off (0.25s) On (0.25s), Off (0.
Introduction to FACPs (4100U), Continued Operator Interface The operator interface lets a user operate the panel. It provides alarm, trouble, and isolate status alerts, and lets the user review historical logs and perform diagnostics. Figure 2-3. Operator Interface Additional CPU Bay Modules The CPU bay can be equipped with many additional types of modules. The cards listed below are limited to the CPU bay only. 4100-6030 Service Modem Card. CPU mezzanine card.
Introduction to FACPs (4100U), Continued System Power Supply (SPS) In the USA, a number of variants of power supply are available, e.g. SPS, RPS, XPS, XCharger each with different portions of circuitry (eg NACs, Battery Charger, IDNet) fitted or not fitted. In Australia, only one variant (SPS) is currently available, and it has hardware and software that are specific to Australia. This unit is used as the main power supply, but may also be fitted directly to a card bay as an expansion supply.
Introduction to FACPs (4100U), Continued System Power The FACP is powered by the SPS (System Power Supply), which gets its primary power from the AC mains and its secondary power from the backup batteries. The 24Vdc bulk power on the SPS is unregulated, and is divided into three feeds, i.e. 24V Card, 24V Signal, and 24V Aux Power. 24V Card which supplies the cards, and Aux power, which is accessible on screw terminals, are each rated at 2A and protected by a PTC. The 27.
Step 1. Mounting Cabinets (4100U) Overview The important aspects of mounting the cabinet are: Access for the operator; Height of displays and controls; Free space for door opening; Cable entry for field wiring. Refer to AS1670 for the height requirement and minimum access requirements. In general, 18U – 28U cabinets will need to be wall mounted. Mounting holes and cabinet dimensions are shown in drawing 1919-22b. Door opening left/right should be specified with the order.
Step 3. Configuring Cards (4100U) Overview The CPU, SPS, and all other modules to be mounted in the FACP cabinets must be configured to operate correctly in the system via their DIP switch and jumper ports. This section describes the hardware configuration for the CPU and SPS, since they will always be used in the CPU bay. Master Motherboard Configuration The CPU motherboard must be jumpered as follows: P9 determines whether the RUI SHIELD signal is connected to 24 C or Earth.
Step 3. Configuring Cards (4100U), Continued PDI Configuration P4/P5: The PDI can be configured to draw its power from different sources via P4 and P5. • To draw power from an XPS on the PDI, set jumpers on P4 and P5 to position 2 – 3. • To draw power from P1 (from the previous PDI or SPS), set jumpers on P4 and P5 to position 1 – 2 (default). • To remove power from the PDI, remove the jumper from P4.
Step 4. Interconnecting Modules and Bays, Continued Card Interconnections in the CPU Bay Card Interconnections Within Expansion Bays Basic Bay-To-Bay Interconnections Use the following directions to connect the CPU to the SPS and other motherboards. 1. Connect P3 on the SPS to P1 on the CPU motherboard using the 8 wire harness with eight-position Molex minifit connector (provided). 2.

Step 4. Interconnecting Modules and Bays, Continued Connecting to Motherboards (continued) 2. Connect the other end of the harness to the leftmost motherboard in the next bay, as described below. Make sure to route the wiring on the left side of the bay. • Insert the harness connector with the blue wire into the P2 connector. Note that the P2 connector has eight pins. Insert the harness connector on either the top four pins or the bottom four pins, not in the middle.
Step 5. Installing Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U) Overview This section contains guidelines and instructions on installing 4”x 5” cards and traditional motherboards into 4100U card bays. IMPORTANT: This section applies to aftermarket modules for expansion bays only. If you do not need to install any aftermarket modules at all, and if you have followed Steps 1 through 6, you have completed the panel installation and can apply AC power.
Step 5. Installing Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued • Up to eight 2” (51 mm) x 11 ½” (292 mm) motherboards can be installed in an expansion bay if no 4”x 5”modules are installed in the bay, and if the pins on the left connector (usually P1) on the leftmost motherboard are removed. Motherboards are mounted on top of the PDI in expansion bays. The data and power that would normally be bussed via the PDI is instead routed across the boards via ribbon cable from one board to the next.
Step 5. Installing Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued As shown in the figure below, motherboards can be installed alongside 4”x 5” cards, if necessary.
Step 5. Installing Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued Installing 4” X 5” Cards The power distribution interface (PDI) is mounted to the back of each expansion cabinet. The PDI contains slots for up to eight 4”x 5” slave cards. Since the PDI carries power and data across the entire bay, it solves most interconnection issues, especially between 4”x 5” cards. Use the following instructions and the figure below to mount 4”x 5” slave cards to an expansion cabinet. 1.
Step 5. Installing Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued Installing Motherboards Use the following procedure when installing motherboards in an expansion bay.

Attach four metal threaded standoffs and lockwashers into the screw holes on the chassis. 3.
Step 6. Installing LED/Switch Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U) Overview The LED/switch user interface consists of a variety of modules, mounted to the front of an expansion bay, which are configured via the 4100 Programmer. Each display module contains between 8 and 24 switches and LEDs, each one separately configurable. User interface functionality is driven by the 64/64 LED/Switch Controller Card, which mounts behind two of the display modules (typically in positions 3 and 4).
Step 6. Installing LED/Switch Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued The LED/Switch User Interface Below is an illustration of a LED/switch bay from the user’s perspective. Figure 2-14. LED/Switch Modules The LED/switch controller card is a 4100 slave that mounts behind two LED/switch modules. The LED/switch controller handles up to 64 switches and 64 LEDs on the modules and communicates their status to the 4100 CPU.
Step 6. Installing LED/Switch Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued LED/Switch Controller Card, (continued) If more than 64 LEDs or 64 switches are used, a second controller may be installed. LED/Switch Modules All types of modules are mounted to the front of a bay, and are connected to each other via a ribbon cable. Each module operates by the same rules: when a button is pressed, the controller card sends the CPU the information, and the event programmed for that button occurs.
Step 6. Installing LED/Switch Modules into Expansion Bays (4100U), Continued Mounting LED/Switch Modules to the Expansion Bay Refer to the figure below to mount the display cards to the front of the expansion box. #6 UNC NUTS ADDITIONAL LED/SWITCH CONTROLLER LOCKWASHERS GROUND CONNECTION Controller assemblies can only be installed into these two slots GROUND CONNECTION Figure 2-16.

Appendix I Power Supply & Battery Capacity Calculations Power Supply Part of the system design includes calculating that the quiescent load and the alarm load are each less than the rating of the power supply. Note that the quiescent load includes devices such as door holders that are normally energized, but get switched off during alarm. The SPS rating is included in the specifications in Chapter 6. Refer to AS1670.1 Section 8.2.3 for a definition of the loads to be calculated.
Appendix J Cable Characteristics IDNet The IDNet cabling requirements are detailed in Chapter 8 of this manual. 4100 MAPNET II Line Characteristics Note: In the following paragraphs the term "MAPNET channel" is used to mean those lines connected to any one Mapnet Transceiver board. Parallel runs from the same board do not constitute separate channels. The term "continuous run" refers to the loop distance from the primary output, through all devices and back to the secondary output.
Network, Continued Fibre Optic Cable Characteristics All fibre cables shall be multimode, graded index. ST style connectors must be used. No physical strain shall be put on the cables. There must be no cable bends of less than a 50mm radius. Two methods are available for joining fibre cable. Splices provide a permanent, very low loss, fibre-to-fibre connection. Couplers provide temporary connection between two ST style connectors with a loss of 1.2dB. Both methods are permitted on a fibre Network.
