Remote Control input providing
five controls:
1. Class Change Operates all sounders for up to 5 seconds without giving any panel
indications.
2. Alert Pulses all sounders and operates the fire buzzer.
3. Evacuate Operates all sounders continuously and operates the fire buzzer.
4. Silence Alarms Latches the Silence Alarms condition until a new alarm condition is
detected or until panel reset.
5. Reset Returns the panel to the quiescent state after a fault or alarm
condition.
Configurable detection zones DIL switch configuration provides the following capabilities:
 Latching or non-latching Fire indication on zone 1.
 Resistor or capacitor EOL monitoring – applies to all zones. (Not
functional on Twin-Wire panels)
 Zone Short Circuit gives fault or fire alarm (for backwards
compatibility) – applies to all zones.
Factory configuration:
Latching zone 1 Fire indication
Capacitor EOL (not for twin-wire)
Zone Short circuit gives fault.
Selectable Zonal or General Selectable via DIL switches on the motherboard.

Alarm Sounder operation When set to Zonal, the sounders operate as follows:
Twin-wire panels ( 1 to 8 zone):
All 2-wire sounders operate zonally, normal sounder circuits operate
as general alarms
Standard panels, 1 to 4 zone panels:
Sounder circuits 1 to 4 operate individually for a fire condition on the
respective zone.
Standard panels, 8-zone panel:
Sounder circuits 1 to 4 operate as general alarms.
Alert Sounder operation DIL switch selectable on the motherboard.

When the Alert Mode DIL switch is set to the ON position, sounders pulse
for automatic detector alarms and are continuous for Manual Call Point
alarms. NOT COMPATIBLE WITH RESISTOR EOL.
Zonally configurable co-incidence Programmable facility which allows any zone to be configured for co-
(dependency) for Automatic Fire incidence (dependency) detection. Requires two occurrences of detector
Detectors activation within 30 minutes before an alarm is raised. Manual call points
are not affected.
PAGE 9 of 45
ISSUE No. & DATE: 0 01/03/12
Fire Signal Output Fully fault monitored output, providing 28VDC (nominal) at up to 250mA
when active.
Fire Relay Output Non- monitored Relay output, providing one set of volt-free change-over
contacts.
Fault Relay Output Non- monitored Relay output, providing one set of volt-free change-over
contacts, with fail-safe operation (fault signalled if total power failure)
Short Circuit Fire Option A DIL switch selectable option on the motherboard to allow a short circuit
on the zones to be indicated as an alarm. For compatibility with older
detectors which do not have current limiting circuits.
NOTE: Automatic fire Detector activation will be detected by the panel as
a Manual Call Point alarm.
Auxiliary 24VDC 250mA power Protected by a fast acting electronic fuse. Operation of the fuse is
supply output indicated on the display. Operation of the Reset button on the panel
display resets the electronic fuse.
DIL switch configurable to switch off for 10 seconds during panel reset.
Open collector outputs Three outputs capable of sinking 50mA each:

 Buzzer Active.
 Disablement Active.
 Evacuate Active.
Earth Fault monitoring Can be disabled by removing a link on the control board.
Zone/Output disablement feature The following circuits can be independently disabled/enabled:

 Each Zone
 Fire Signal Output
 All Sounders
Buzzer disablement feature DIL switch selectable option to allow the buzzer and Buzzer Active output
to be prevented from operating.
Intended for use during commissioning and maintenance only.
One Man Zone Test Each zone can be independently set to the One Man test condition.
Sounders will operate momentarily as per configuration of zonal alarms &
alert mode.
NOTE: Zone Dependency (co-incidence) is not applied during one-man-
test on a test zone.
One Man Sounder Test Operates the general sounders (and twin-wire sounders if twin-wire
panel) intermittently.
Automatic fire detector and Each zone is capable of recognising whether a fire condition has been
manual call point fire event caused by an automatic fire detector or a manual call point (unless the
discrimination panel is configured to EOL resistor monitoring on the zones). This is used
in conjunction with the dependency (co-incidence) feature and Alert alarm
mode.
Alarm Counter The panel keeps a record of the number times it enters the alarm
condition. This count can be displayed on the display LEDs as a binary
value, up to a maximum value of 999 (1111101001). The counter can be
reset via a button on the motherboard which can only be accessed by
removing the front cover.
Repeater panels Support for up to 3 repeater panels via two-wire RS485 serial
communication. [Repeaters are not available for the 1 & 2 zone panels].

range of -5 C to +40 C.
The charging voltage can be adjusted via the

15.5 Power Supply Load Calculation
The power supply load must not exceed 1.5 Amps.
To determine the maximum power supply load perform the following steps:
1. Look-up the mains failed panel load in alarm. Enter this value as Ipanel.
2. Calculate the maximum load on the alarm circuits in mA in an alarm condition. Enter this value
as Ialarms.
3. Calculate the load on the auxiliary supply in mA in an alarm condition. Enter this value as Iaux.
4. Calculate the maximum power supply load using the formula below:
Ipanel = ______mA
Ialarms = ______mA
Iaux = ______mA
Ipse = (Ipanel + Iaux + Ialarms )/1000 Amps

=
= (______)/1000 Amps
= ______ Amps
Warning:
The value of Ipse must not exceed the maximum permissible load for the panel. Overloading
the power supply may result in automatic shutdown of the power supply during a fire alarm
condition.
15.6 Minimum Standby Battery Capacity Calculation

This section describes how to calculate the minimum required standby battery capacity for the control
panel. To determine the battery capacity, perform the following steps:
1. Look-up the mains failed fault battery current. Add the zone current for each zone (detectors,
sounders & EOL). Enter this value as Ipanelfault.
2. Look-up the mains failed alarm battery current. Add the zone current for each zone (detectors,
sounders & EOL). Enter this value as Ipanelalarm.
3. Calculate the maximum load on the alarm circuits in mA in an alarm condition. Enter this value
as Ialarms and enter this figure in the table.
4. Calculate the load on the auxiliary supply in mA in the quiescent condition. Enter this value as
Iauxfault.
5. Calculate the load on the auxiliary supply in mA in an alarm condition. Enter this value as
Iauxalarm.
6. Calculate the total battery load in fault, Ifault.
7. Calculate the total battery load in alarm, Ialarm.
8. Enter the required standby time in hours, Tfault.
9. Enter the required time in alarm in hours, Talarm.
PAGE 40 of 45
ISSUE No. & DATE: 0 01/03/12
Ipanelfault = ______mA
Iauxfault = ______mA
Ifault = [Ipanelfault + Iauxfault] ______mA
Tfault = ______hrs
Ipanelalarm = ______mA
Ialarms = ______mA
Iauxalarm = ______mA
Ialarm = [Ipanelalarm + Ialarms + Iauxalarm] = ______mA
Talarm = ______hrs
10. Substitute the values in to the formula below.

The MINIMUM battery capacity (Cmin) required is given by:
Cmin = 1.25 x ((Tfault x Ifault) + (2 x (Talarm x Ialarm)))/1000 Ah

= _____ x _____ _____ + _____)))/1000 Ah
= 1.25 x ((_____ _____))/1000 Ah
= 1.25 x (______)/1000 Ah
= 1.25 x ______/1000 Ah
= ______/1000 Ah
Cmin = ______ Ah
11. Select the next highest available battery size.
A battery Calculation worksheet is included on the next page.
Notes:
1. The DUO-CEL panel is designed to house and charge POWERSONIC 3.4Ah batteries to
80% capacity in 24 hours.
2. Any batteries that cannot be accommodated within the DUO-CEL enclosure must be
located in an enclosure adjacent to the DUO-CEL.
