manual abstract
Check the power switch on the control panel is on. The control panel monitors the wiring to the vibration pad and the smoke alarm pattress for faults. (i) If the vibration pad is removed or if its wiring is open circuit, the control panel will flash the strobe. (ii) If the wiring to the smoke alarm pattress is disconnected, open circuited or short circuited, the control panel will turn on the vibration pad and the strobe light. There are no user serviceable parts in this unit. If it is thought to be defective, it must be returned to the manufacturer for repair or replacement (see “Product Guarantee” section). 4. Accessories and other Features Control Panel “Aux. Output” The auxiliary output turns on when the control panel is in alarm and can supply up to 200 mA at 12 Volts (range 10 to 14 Volts). (Note: the positive terminal is the pin next to the “Clock Input” socket).An Auxiliary Strobe Ei 178 is available and is supplied with 10 m of cable and a suitable plug. It can be located, for example, where it is readily seen during the day (e.g. downstairs hallway). An extra Vibration Pad Ei 174 is available with 2 m of cable and a plug for connecting it to the auxiliary socket. Control Panel “Clock Input” socket A suitable alarm clock (with a 5 to 24 Volts AC or DC output electrically isolated from the mains supply) can be connected to this input socket with a 3.5 mm mono jack plug. When the alarm clock triggers, the vibration pad turns on to wake the person, but the internal strobe or auxiliary output do not turn on.This lets the user know it is a wake-up call and not a fire. Therefore the user needs only one vibration pad under their pillow or mattress. Triggering Control Panel into Alarm Externally A manual fire alarm switch (e.g. a glass break type) can be used to get the control panel to turn on the vibration pad and strobe light. This is done by connecting the red and yellow wires, from the control panel, together, with the switch (or volt-free relay isolated contacts). The wires from the switch can be connected into the circuit at the pattress terminals. Note: This does not cause the smoke alarm to sound. Adding an Ei 128R Pattress with relay to the system The Ei 128R Pattress is used where volt-free relay contacts are required to signal to other equipment when one of the smoke alarms sense fire. For example the relay can be used to signal to a warden call system, or to turn on lights. This requires the system to have at least two smoke/heat alarms. The first smoke/heat alarm should be mounted on the pattress Ei 172/160 as described above. The second smoke / heat alarm, interconnected to the first, should be mounted on the relay pattress Ei 128R. When any smoke alarm senses fire the Ei 172/160 pattress will signal the control panel into alarm and the Ei 128R pattress will switch its relay contacts. (Note: The Ei 128R will not operate without a 230VAC mains supply). Power Requirements The typical currents at 230 VAC are Standby 10 mA Alarm 50 ...
