7 Installing Zeus CHAPTER 2 INSTALLING AND RUNNING ZEUS Zeus is a Siemens-proprietary software package that requires a series of password-exchange procedures to be installed and activated at a site or with an authorized agent, set up and installed on individual workstations. Refer to the Zeus Installation Manual for details on these procedures. Starting a Zeus Session To run Zeus after setup, simply double-click the Zeus desktop icon (Figure 2-1) and enter the appropriate user name and password in the User Login Dialog (Figure 2-2). Zeus will open to its main screen (Figures 2-3, 4-1). Figure 2-1 Zeus Shortcut (Desktop Icon) Figure 2-2 User Login Dialog Ending a Zeus Session To exit Zeus, click File, and then Exit from the resulting drop-down menu (File > Exit). You can also click the button marked X in the upper right corner of the window. If the currently open file has unsaved changes, you are prompted to save the file before exiting. The time that has elapsed during your session is displayed in the lower right corner of the Zeus window. Figure 2-3 Zeus Main Screen (See also Figure 4-1, Chapter 4.) Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 3 Siemens Building Technologies

8 CHAPTER 3 STEP-BY-STEP EXAMPLE The fastest and easiest way to introduce you to Zeus is to show you step-by-step how to configure a simple project. Refer to Chapters 4 and 5 herein, and the Help feature in Zeus, for more detail about the features and operations presented here. NOTE: This project is a highly simplified example provided only to illustrate Zeus operations. It is not intended to represent a practical or code-compliant fire system. Phase 1: Fire-Only System for Acme Manufacturing Co. Figure 3-1 ACME Manufacturing Co. Layout Functionality Required: One HFP-11 detector, one HMS-S Pull station for each room. All HFP-11 detectors use Intelligent Environmental Compensation (IEC) and Application Specific Detection (ASD). An event on first floor of the Main Building or in the Annex, at a detector or pull station, triggers the following: - A steady audible Evacuation level alarm on that floor, accompanied by synchronized strobes. - A temporal audible Alert level alarm on the other floors of the building of incident and other buildings, accompanied by synchronized strobes. The detectors and devices in the Annex are connected to the Main Building 1st-floor device loop. The XLS control panel, located in the Main Building Lobby, includes Function Keys (programmable buttons) for: - Alarm testing / fire drill simulating an event on each floor of the Main building and Annex. - Recall signal of 30 pulses per minute march tone, which always sounds throughout the complex. System Status Displays with control are used to monitor and acknowledge events in the Annex and on the Main Building 2nd floor. Alarm events activate a dialer to local authorities; trouble events activate a dialer to maintenance personnel. A single printer, located in the Main Building Lobby, is used to print out all system events. General Approach: Although there are a number of approaches, here s how you ll build this configuration in the following exercise: 1) Start a new project. 2) Set up the system hardware by inserting and deleting hardware elements in the Physical View. 3) Assign hardware elements to appropriate location groupings in the Geographic View. 4) Set up the system behaviors by assigning devices and groups to logic elements in the Function View. 5) Perform a check to find errors, and then compile the project into a configuration file that can be transferred to the system control panel. Note: Normally, one would begin the design process by sketching a system in terms of components, locations and logic before programming in Zeus. For illustration purposes, we will explain the system as we build it here. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 4 Siemens Building Technologies

9 Part 1-1: Start a New Zeus Project NOTE: Underlining refers to a figure on the right side of the page. 1) On the Windows Desktop, double-click the Zeus Shortcut. 2) In the resulting Login dialog, enter a valid user name and password. Click OK. 3) Open the File Menu and start a new project: Click File> New.. Or click the new button on the Zeus Toolbar. 4) In the New Project dialog that pops up, fill in the project name. This example project is called Acme. As you type, notice that Acme is added to the folder address listed in the Location field below. Zeus adds the extra folder to keep files for the same project together. For this exercise, use the default directory: C:\Program Files\Siemens FireFinder XLS\Zeus 4.0\Acme. Click OK when you are done. 5) The Zeus screen appears, with the gray Detail View window on the right, and at least one other View window on the left. (Refer to Figure 2-3.) If the Physical View window is not displayed somewhere to the left of the Detail View, click the Physical View button,, on the Toolbar. For now, we want only the Physical and Detail Views to be displayed. If other View windows are open, close them. 6) In the Physical View, select the Project element (single-click the icon so it becomes highlighted). 7) At the top of the Detail View, click the Properties Tab. The fields that appear are properties associated with the selected element in this case, identifying information on the project itself. You can enter this project s data in these fields. If the system is not an XNET system, the XNET Networked Configuration in Project Properties must be unchecked. Click the property NFPA System Type. From the resulting menu, select Local (NFPA 72A). Of particular note, the Contact Name and Contact Phone field entries will be displayed in the Alarm Details Screen of the control panel (PMI) during an event. 8) As you construct this project, you may need to resize the Physical View window to see all the details. You can quickly make the windows the same width by clicking the Arrange button,, on the Zeus Toolbar. You can also move the cursor over the Physical View window s right border, where it will become a double arrow. With this symbol active, click, hold and drag to move the border. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 5 Siemens Building Technologies

10 Part 1-2: Set Up Hardware in the Physical View 1) With the Project element selected, insert a FireFinder XLS Node under it by clicking Insert > FireFinder XLS. 2) Select the FireFinder XLS Node element in the Physical View. Click the Properties tab in the Detail View window. Click the property field Base Language Cust. Message, type Acme Manufacturing Co., and press the Enter key. This becomes the Node element s label in the Physical View, and the title shown on the PMI control panel during system startup. 3) Toward the bottom of the Detail View, set Battery Capacity Factor to Total Amp x 4 Hours, and Battery Capacity Reserved to 25%. 4) Click the box next to the Node property FireFinder XLS Map Names. The resulting dialog allows you to select the floor plans that can be shown on the Node s PMI (control panel), to display event locations. Select the three Acme example maps already in Zeus Acme 1st Floor, 2nd Floor, Annex and click Add to make these files available to this Node. Close the dialog. 5) Note the properties On Site Contact Name / Phone. This information is prominently displayed on the PMI when the user requests event details. 6) Expand the Node element by clicking the small plus sign next to it. The elements History Log and System Flags, which are part of the Node element, appear. Click History Log and press the F1 Key to view help topics on this important element and its properties. The System Flags element will be explained when it is used a little later, in the Function View section of this tutorial 7) Select the FireFinder XLS Node again and click Insert > CAB-1. A CAB-1 (one-row enclosure) is inserted as a child of the Node element. 8) Let s look at correcting a mistake. The specification calls for using a double-row CAB-2, not a CAB-1. You can either undo the insertion operation, or delete the element you just inserted. To undo the insertion, you can either click Undo,, on the Toolbar, press Ctrl +Z, or click Edit > Undo. To delete the CAB-1 element, first select it. Then you can either click Delete,, on the Toolbar, press the Delete key, or click Edit > Delete. Use one of these methods to remove the CAB-1 element. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 6 Siemens Building Technologies

11 9) Select the FireFinder XLS Node element and insert the new CAB-2 element under it (replacing the CAB-1): Insert > CAB-2. Change the CAB-2 element in the Detail View to read 1st Flr Enclosure Lobby. 10) The system uses a PSC-12 power supply card. Four relays are packaged with the PSC. Two are fixeduse: they connect to the system s common alarm and trouble buses. Two others, which we will not use here, are programmable. Zeus has already inserted a PSC-12 under the CAB-2; click the small plus sign to the left of the CAB to show the PSC. Click the small plus sign to the left of the PSC to expand it. The two fixed PSC Relays are already under the PSC. Label the PSC Power Supply - 1st Flr CAB, and the PSC relays 1) Common Alarm - 1st Flr CAB, and 2) Common Trouble - 1st Flr CAB. Set the property Battery Size to 31 AH. 11) Select the CAB-2 and insert its inner door: Insert > Inner Door. (Notice that the Insert menu has changed with the new selection.) 12) Select the Inner Door and click Insert > PMI to add a control panel/central processor (a PMI Person- Machine Interface). Label the PMI Control Panel - Lobby. Its default HNet Address, 253, is reserved for a Node s PMI only. 13) The project requires five Function Key operations for manual system testing. On the PMI screen, these keys are listed on the Function Key Screen; a user will press these graphical buttons on the touch screen to run and stop tests. Right-click the PMI, and select Insert > Function Key from the resulting pop-up menu. A Function Key is inserted as a child of the PMI. Add four more, and label the Function Keys Test 1st Floor, Test 2nd Floor, Test Annex, Recall Signal and STOP. You will set up the logic to program these keys a little later. 14) Select the PMI again. Click the box next to the PMI s PMI Event Map Name 1 property. The resulting dialog allows you to mark the PMI s position on one or more of the map files selected for this Node. For Select Bitmap, choose the Acme 1st Floor map. Drag the blue dot to the desired location, in this the Lobby. When a 1st-floor event map is displayed on the PMI, a You Are Here icon is added at this mark. Note that you can click and drag it to adjust its position. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 7 Siemens Building Technologies

12 15) Select the 2nd Floor map for PMI Event Map 2 (you can do this by setting Position to 2 in the dialog), and the Acme Annex map for Position 3. Do not mark a position on these other two maps, since the PMI is located on the 1st Floor, Click OK when done. 16) Use these properties to set the PMI s display: Group Level Displayed to Device/Primitive to show individual devices, Display Type to Display With Control, and MORE INFO View to Map so a graphical map will be first displayed when MORE INFO is pressed. 17) The main enclosure requires a card cage into which circuit cards will plug. Add a five-slot CC-5 card cage as a child under the CAB-2 enclosure. Change the CC-5 custom message to Fire System Cards 1st Flr. (The Inner Door and PSC are shown collapsed for clarity. Note that they are on the same tree branch / level as the CC-5.) 18) Select the CC-5 and insert a NIC-C (HNet) under it. The NIC will communicate with the other enclosures in the system. Label the NIC Network Interface Card 1st Flr. In the Detail View Properties tab, make sure CAN Bus Enabled is NOT checked. This system will use its DACs, not NICs, to host CAN bus devices. 19) The 1st floor requires three output circuits to drive 1st floor audibles, 1st floor strobes, and the separate any-alarm default audible required by regulation. Insert a ZIC-4A Zone Indication Card under the CC-5. Label the ZIC-4A Notification Apps 1st Flr. Insert three Out Ckts under the ZIC. Label these 1st Flr Audibles, 1st Floor Strobes and 1st Flr Default Audible. 20) In the Out Ckt Detail Views, set the property ZIC Circuit Usage to NAC Coded for the Audibles and Default Audible circuits, and Strobe Synch for the Strobe circuit. (You will code the audibles later.) On all Out Ckts, check the Silenceable box and set Wiring Type to Class A. Set Total Current drawn to 2.0 amps each. This last property allows Zeus to determine whether there is an adequate power supply to operate the system as designed. 21) We need another ZIC under the CC-5, this time for the Annex. You can create this quickly by copying and modifying the 1st Flr ZIC. Select the 1st Flr ZIC; copy it (use Edit > Copy, press click Ctrl + C, or click ). Select the CC-5 element. Paste the copied ZIC (Edit > Paste, Ctrl + V, or ). Delete the Default Audible Out Ckt and change all the other labels from 1st Flr to Annex. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 8 Siemens Building Technologies

13 22) Insert a DLC (Device Loop Card) under the CC-5. Label it 1st Flr Device Loop. Select the DLC, insert an HMS-S pull station and label this 1st Flr Stairwell Pull Sta. 23) Under the DLC, insert and label an HMS pull station 1st Flr Stairwell Pull Sta. Then insert and label an HFP-11 detector ( 1st Flr Detector ) and another HMS pull station ( 1st Flr Pull Sta. ). Duplicating these two new elements will populate the device loop. All HFPs will use Intelligent Environmental Compensation (IEC), so make sure that property is checked on this HFP. Also, most of the detectors will have an Application Specific Detection (ASD) setting of Office, so set that property on this HFP as well. 24) Click the HFP, hold down the Shift key, and click the second HMS to select both devices. Copy these elements to the Windows Clipboard. (Use Ctrl+C, Edit > Copy, or.) Select the DLC. Click Edit > Paste Special. In the resulting dialog, set Multiple Paste to 8 and click Paste. Eight more HFP / HMS pairs are inserted under the DLC, one pair for each room on the Main Building 1st floor and the Annex. 25) Select the DLC. In the Detail View Elements tab, use the table to change the elements as shown, filling in the Base Language Custom Message with the individual Zones. Note the amount of work that has been saved by using Paste Special to generate and label repetitious elements. 26) You will now set up the 2nd floor enclosure simply by copying, pasting and modifying the 1st floor enclosure. Select the 1st floor CAB-2, copy it and paste it. A duplicate of the entire 1st floor setup is added to the system. Move one of the CABs so the copy (Enclosure 2) is below the original. 27) Select the copied CAB, and then click (or Edit > Find/Replace Text or Ctrl + F). In the resulting dialog (next page), enter 1st for Find What and 2nd for Replace With. Click Replace All, and then Close. Fully expand the CAB. Note that for the CAB and all elements under it, 1st Flr becomes 2nd Flr. In the CAB label, change Lobby to Hallway. Modify the CAB children as follows: 28) Delete the PMI from under the Inner Door. 29) Delete the default audible Out Ckt on the first ZIC, and the entire second ( Annex ) ZIC. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 9 Siemens Building Technologies

14 30) Taking advantage of the similar layouts of the 1st and 2nd floors, select the DLC and use Find/Replace Text to replace all occurrences of Lobby to Office, Shipping to Test Lab, Shop to QA Room. 31) Delete the copied Annex loop devices i.e., the devices at addresses 14 through ) Select the first HMS in the device loop (Stairwell). Click Edit > Find/Replace Tree Node (Ctrl + H). In the resulting dialog, select HFP for Replace With, then Replace. In the next dialog, set up the 2nd floor Stairwell detector: Device Address 1, 2nd Flr Stairwell Detector, IEC checked, ASD Application of Lobby. Click OK and Close, and the HMS from the bottom stairwell landing becomes the detector at the top landing. The 2nd floor device loop is complete. 33) Select the Node element and insert two SSDs (System Status Displays). Note that Zeus applies HNet Address 9 to the first SSD, filling the gap left by the deleted ZIC at that address. Label the SSDs 2nd Flr Display - Hallway and Annex Display - Annex Office. For PSC Power Supply Address, set the 2nd floor SSD to 6 (the HNet address of the 2nd floor CAB s PSC) and the Annex SSD to 1 (the 1st floor CAB s PSC). 34) Again select the Node element, and insert a Remote Printer Module (RPM) that will communicate with a PAL-1 printer to make printouts of system events and histories. Label the RPM System Printer Interface. Set the property PSC Power Supply Address to 1, which is the HNet address of the PSC in Enclosure 1. The RPM and printer will be located near this CAB, in the Main Building s Lobby. 35) Expand the RPM and label its Parallel Port System Printer 1st Flr Lobby. Set the property Print Level to Device/Primitive so the event details will be printed out at the individual device level, as opposed to a higher Group Level. 36) Select the Node s PMI (under the 1st flr CAB door). Set the property Report RPM Address to the RPM s HNet address (12), and Report RPM Port to Parallel Port. Set Group Level Displayed to Device/Primitive to match the RPM. 37) Save the project by clicking File > Save, or on the Toolbar. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 10 Siemens Building Technologies

15 Part 1-3: Set Up Groups in the Geographic View 1) Click the Geographic View button,, to insert that View. Keep the Physical View open. You will now organize the devices in the Physical View into Groups Which are used in creating system logic (Function View) and Voice controls (Control View) and determining what graphics and messages the PMI displays during an event. 2) Select the Project element in the Geographic View, and look at its Properties Tab in the Detail View. The five Group levels (1-5) and their default names (Campus, Building, Floor, Area, Zone) are displayed. Note that you can change the names of the Group levels here, to best suit your particular project. Keep these default labels for this example project. 3) Insert three Floor (Level 3) elements under the Geographic View s Project element. Label these elements 1st Floor, 2nd Floor and Annex. 4) Under the 1st Floor, insert 7 Zones (Level 1), one for the stairwell and each room. Label these accordingly: Stairwell - 1st Flr, Lobby, Hallway, etc. 5) Assign the 1st Floor devices in the Physical View to their corresponding Groups. For example, select the Lobby devices, then drag and drop these onto the Zone Lobby. Note that links of the elements are placed under the Zone; the device icons are replaced by light-yellow boxed arrows. Try using the right mouse button to make some of the assignments. When you release the button, a menu prompts you to Assign to Here, or Cancel; Move and Copy are unavailable, since assignment is the only action possible. Click Assign to Here for each link. 6) Add and label one more Zone under the 1st Floor: 1st Flr Components. This Group will allow you to work separately with such system components as the power supply and electronics cards. This Group will enable the PMI to display detailed messages and maps when a card or module is activated or is in a trouble state. 7) To this last Zone, assign the HNet-addressable electronic components located on the 1st Floor: PSC, PMI, cards and modules. Note that these module links are white, not light yellow as before. This indicates that the links are used only to set PMI display information, and do not affect any other kind of system functionality. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 11 Siemens Building Technologies

16 8) Select a Zone on the 1st Floor, and examine its properties. Many of these determine what information will be displayed on the PMI during an event. On the PMI s Alarm Details Screen, the properties Base Language Detail Message, Fire Service Equipment Icon Names, and Hazards / People Icon Names are shown. On the PMI s Map Screen, the Group Event Map Name graphic, and marked position on that graphic specified by Group Location, is displayed. The Zone Coding properties determine at what Group level and with what response an event in this Zone will sound, when Zone Coding is used in a system. Acme will not use these. 9) Select each of the Zones under the 1st Floor Group, and click the button on the right of the Group Event Map Name field. In the resulting dialog, use Select Bitmap to select the 1st Floor map for each 1st Floor Zone. This time, mark each Zone s position on the map by clicking in the room the current Group represents. The blue dot will show up on the PMI as an alarm icon (flame) or trouble icon (lightning bolt) when the map is called up and displayed during an event. You can click and drag the dot to move it. (The position of the dot on the map, in pixels, is shown in the property Group Location, which in turn can be used to adjust that position.) Note that without closing this dialog, you can move from Zone to Zone by clicking the tree graphic on the right side. Note also that if you click Display All on the right, all the marked positions on the Acme 1st Floor map are shown. 10) Back in the Detail View, clicking on the buttons next to Fire Service Equipment Icon Names and Hazards / People Icon Names brings up a similar dialog that allows you to select icons that will be displayed in the PMI s Alarm Details Screen, which will aid firefighters in determining resources and hazards in the affected Zone. The Hazards / People dialog includes a feature for generating custom 3- digit HazMat icons. You can press the F1 Key to get the Zeus Help feature, which will provide more details. 11) Repeat the setup process for the 2nd floor and for the Annex. The Annex does not currently contain its own equipment, so no Annex Components Group is needed. 12) Save the project: File > Save, or. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 12 Siemens Building Technologies

17 Part 1-4: Assign Elements to Logic Functions 1) Click the Function View button,, to open that window. If the Physical and Geographic Views are closed, open them as well. Click the Arrange button,, to make all Views the same width. 2) Expand the Function View project element to see the automatically added link, Logic Functions for FireFinder XLS Node. All the logic of this single- Node installation will be listed under this link. Each Node of a multiple-node installation would have its own Logic for Node link. 3) This link s properties include three Audible Control Function Priority Action fields. These set the responses for NAC Coded ZIC output circuits. As you ll see, they also correspond to the three inputs of all Audible Control Functions for this Node. The Zone Coding properties listed after these fields are not used in this project. For Priorities 1-3 respectively, select Steady Audibles, Temporal / Uniform and March Time 30 SPM. These settings correspond to the required project alarm, alert and recall states. 4) The first logic function to be created will be the Audible Control Function for the default audible, on the third output circuit of the 1st Floor ZIC. Select the Logic Functions for Node element and insert an Audible Control Function. Select this function element. In the Detail View, enter DEFAULT AUDIBLE for the property Function Label, and 1st Flr Lobby for Comment. Expand the function and note the light-yellow inputs Priority 1-3, and the light-blue output. On this function, each input can have a single device, Group, System Flag or Function linked to it. The state of the linked element determines the state of the input. Each Priority input corresponds to a different audible output, as you set up in the Logic for Node link earlier. 5) From the Physical View, drag and drop the generic System Flags element (directly under the Node) onto the function s Priority 1 input in the Function View. Select the resulting link. Set the property Flag Name to Any Alarm. 6) Drag and drop the ZIC Out Ckt Default Audible from the Physical View to the Audible Control Function s output. When an alarm occurs anywhere in this system, this Audible Control Function will cause the default audible on the 1st floor ZIC to produce a steady tone, as you selected in the Logic Functions for Node link. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 13 Siemens Building Technologies

18 7) Now you will create the logic for the PMI s Function Keys (touch screen graphical buttons). A Function Key produces a short pulse output when the screen is touched, but we ll want a panel user to be able to momentarily touch the key, and have the resulting operation latch on or off. Therefore, you ll use D Latch functions to connect the Function Keys to the system logic. D Latch in Toggle/Latch Application: 8) Insert a D Latch under the Logic Functions for Node element. Label it TEST 1ST FLOOR / Toggle/Latch. 9) This D Latch will be used as the Test 1st Floor Function Key s toggling latch, with the output becoming and staying true with the first screen touch. For this role, the D Latch requires its output to be inverted (changed to the opposite state) and then fed back to its own Data input. To set this up, drag the D Latch itself to its own Data input list. Select the resulting yellow function link, and in the Detail View check the Invert box. The yellow link s F turns red to indicate that it is an inverted input. 10) Drag the Function Key Test 1st Floor from the Physical View onto the Clock input. This Function Key will now cause the output to become true at the first touch, then to toggle between false (off) and true (on) for additional touches. 11) A Clear input resets the D Latch output to false (off). We will use the Function Key STOP to do this. Drag and drop this Function Key from the Physical View onto the Clear input. The TEST 1ST FLOOR toggle/latch is complete. You have not assigned any links to the blue D Latch output, because the D Latch will be assigned to the input to another function. Zeus allows functions to be assigned to the inputs of other functions, but not their outputs. You assign one function to the input of another by dragging the input function itself, not its output. 12) Insert three more D Latches for the TEST 2ND FLOOR, TEST ANNEX and RECALL functions. Format as before: STOP Key on Clear, inverted output of each D Latch itself on its own Data input, and the respective Function Key on Clock. 13) Three different audible tones are required: EVAC, Alert and Recall. The only way to activate the recall tone is to press the Recall Function Key. However, multiple conditions an alarm or a Function Key press will sound EVAC in one facility location, and Alert in the others. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 14 Siemens Building Technologies

19 To program this behavior, insert six OR functions under the Logic for Node link and set them up: OR Function Label 1ST FLR EVAC 1ST FLR ALERT 2ND FLR EVAC 2ND FLR ALERT ANNEX EVAC ANNEX ALERT Inputs Group: 1st Floor D Latch: TEST 1ST FLOOR Group: 2nd Floor Group: Annex D Latch: TEST 2ND FLOOR D Latch: TEST ANNEX Group: 2nd Floor D Latch: TEST 2ND FLOOR Group: 1st Floor Group: Annex D Latch: TEST 1ST FLOOR D Latch: TEST ANNEX Group: Annex D Latch: TEST ANNEX Group: 1st Floor Group: 2nd Floor D Latch: TEST 1ST FLOOR D Latch: TEST 2ND FLOOR Note that the OR allows multiple links on its input. An OR s output becomes true when one or more of the links on its input become true. Here, ORs will be used to activate the proper response from the audibles and strobes from the true input of a particular Function Key or Group. Select one of the inputs Group links, and in the Detail View examine the property Input Criterion. You can select different criteria to make the Group input true. Keep the Active default setting for all the input Group links. 14) Insert three new Audible Control functions, fully expand them, and name them 1ST FLR APPLIANCES, 2ND FLR APPLIANCES, and ANNEX APPLIANCES. 15) Drag the EVAC OR functions to their respective Audible Control Priority 1 Inputs for example, 1ST FLR EVAC to the 1ST FLR APPLIANCES Audible Control Function input Priority 1. Assign the Alert ORs to the Priority 2 Inputs, and the RECALL D Latch to all Priority 3 Inputs. 16) From the Physical View, assign the 1st Floor ZIC Audibles and Strobes Out Ckts to the 1st Floor Audible Control Function output. Repeat for the 2nd Floor and the Annex. Save the project. You should note two things. Although the strobes are lumped in with the audibles, the ZIC will drive the strobe circuits in a non-coded way. Also, as an alternative, the Out Ckts could have been assigned to their respective Floor Groups, and those Groups could have gone on the function outputs instead of the circuits themselves. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 15 Siemens Building Technologies

20 Part 1-5: Check and Compile the System 1) In the Physical View, select the 2nd Floor SSD. Change its HNet Address from 11 to 9, the same as the Annex SSD. This is an intentional error. 2) You will now check the project for errors before compiling it into a configuration file to be loaded into the system s PMI. Click Build > Check,. 3) If you configured the system as outlined in these steps, you will see one error message in the resulting Check Result window for the intentional error we just introduced. Double-click on the message; the 2nd floor SSD is highlighted in gray in the Physical View. Select that SSD and change its HNet address back to 11. 4) Re-run the check. You should now receive no error or non-fatal warning messages. 5) To compile this project, first save it. Click Build > Compile,. The FireFinder XLS Compiled (.hrc) version of the system is saved to the project directory along with the Zeus Database (.zdb) version. Zeus adds HdbNode01 to the.hrc file name to indicate that this is the compiled file for Node 1, and therefore is to be transferred to the physical PMI for Node 1. If this example used multiple nodes, there would be multiple.hrc files, each to be transferred separately to the different nodes. You might also have used the Compile All command instead of Compile to create those files. In this case, the compiled.hrc file is larger than the.zdb file, but that is because the project s graphics and audio files are included in the compilation, while the original files are stored in another directory. The file etuser.lst is the record of the project elapsed time, the total amount of time the project has been open, which is displayed in the bottom right corner of the Zeus main screen. 6) To transfer the Acme configuration to its physical control panel, you would connect a cable from the serial port of a host computer to the Upload jack of the Node s control panel. You would then run Zeus and use Build > Transfer,, to upload the compiled file to the panel, with the option of transferring the panel s current history data to the host computer. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 16 Siemens Building Technologies

21 PHASE 2: Add Voice to Fire System for Acme Manufacturing Co. The Acme fire system will now be upgraded to include Fire Finder XLS Voice components. The additional requirements for this upgrade are as follow: Voice stations on both Main Bldg floors and in the Annex, with control transferable between all three stations. Three Voice channels for emergency pages, evacuation messages, and alert messages. Voice stations are capable of paging to any of these channels. Pre-recorded Evac and Alert messages will be broadcast from the 1st-floor enclosure, with backup message files stored in the 2nd floor enclosure. These messages will be the same for all locations. For example, the same Evac message plays in any location in the facility that is in an Evacuation state. Emergency telephone system with master phone at the Lobby enclosure, using separate circuits for Main Bldg 1st and 2nd Floors and the Annex. Emergency phones plug into jacks located along each circuit, in all rooms. Voice system will use existing enclosures (CABs), with an additional Remote Box (REMBOX) used for the Annex components. Annex Voice service will be hosted by the 1st floor enclosure. Part 2-1: Add Voice Components (Physical View) 1) Open the completed Acme fire-only system. Close all Views except the Physical. Select the Node element. Set the DNet Wiring Style (bottom of the Detail View Properties Tab) to Style 4. 2) Select the Inner Door on the 1st floor CAB. Insert and label an FMT as Firefighter Master Tel - 1st Flr, an LVM as Live Voice Module - 1st Flr, and an SCM as Switch Control Module - 1st Flr. Ignore the CAN Address of ^0 on these devices for now. Expand the FMT and label its Master Phone as Master Phone - 1st Flr Lobby. Expand the LVM and label its Microphone as Page Mike - 1st Flr. Expand the SCM. 3) The multiple switches under the LVM and SCM will be used for such functions as selecting the channels and speakers to which pages will be directed; requesting, granting and denying transfers of control from one Voice Command Station to another; and enabling Warden Pages. Label and set up the LVM switches as follows: Switch Device Usage Label 1 Request Access 1st Flr Request Acc 2 Grant Access 1st Flr Grant Acc 3 Deny Access 1st Flr Deny Acc 4 All Call 1st Flr All Call 5 Page to Evac 1st Flr to All Evac 6 Page to Alert 1st Flr to All Alert 9 Microphone Page Mike - 1st Flr Switches 1-3 will enable control transfers to and from this station; 4-6 will direct pages to the Emergency Page, Evacuation and Alert channels. You will soon set up these Voice functions. For all switches, check the property Active. For the MIC, set Cough Delay the pause between un-keying the mike and the end of a page to 5 seconds. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 17 Siemens Building Technologies

22 4) The eight switches under the SCM will be used to complete the capabilities needed at this station. Label and set up these switches as follows: Switch Device Usage Label 1 Speaker Group 1st Flr to 1st Flr 2 Speaker Group 1st Flr to 2nd Flr 3 Speaker Group 1st Flr to Annex 4 Telephone Group 1st Flr to 1st Flr 5 Telephone Group 1st Flr to 2nd Flr 6 Telephone Group 1st Flr to Annex 7 Warden Page Warden Page - 1st Flr 8 Lamp Test 1st Flr Lamp Test Switches 1-3 will allow the user to page to the speaker circuits that you will soon add to the Groups 1st Floor, 2nd Floor and Annex. Switches 4-6 will connect emergency phone circuits to the Master Phone on the FMT. Switch 7 will allow the user to make a Warden Page, a page from the firefighter telephone system. Switch 8 will be used to test the panel LEDs. For all switches, the property Active must be checked. 5) Select the 1st-floor CAB-2, and insert a second CC-5 Card Cage under it. Label this CC-5 Voice System Cards - 1st Flr. 6) Insert a DAC-NET (DAC) under the new CC-5. Label it Digital Audio Card - 1st Flr. In the Detail View, check the property First DAC because this is the first DAC in the system. Note: DACs accept HNet addresses of only 1 through 99. A good practice for Nodes with many DACs (up to 32 are allowed) is to reserve the lower HNet addresses for them. 7) In the Detail View, uncheck the DAC property Use Default PMFs, so that the properties Tones File Name and Message File Name become available. For each of these properties, you select a PMF file, with the extension.pmf, that contains a collection of pre-recorded tones or messages. The individual tones or messages in these.pmf collections are standard wave (.wav) files. Once a PMF is selected, its.wav files are available to this DAC. (The default PMFs is selected in the Node element s Detail View.) 8) With the DAC still selected, click the button to the right of Tones File Name. In the resulting dialog, click System Folder for the field Look In, and select the Default Tones PMF. Similarly, select an appropriate Default Message PMF for the property Message File Name. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 18 Siemens Building Technologies

23 9) Insert three Prerecorded Messages under the DAC. These are.wav messages that will be selected from the.pmf s stored in the DAC. Label these Emergency Page Tone, Evac MSG - Primary, and Alert Msg - Primary. They are primary because this DAC will be the primary source of these messages for the system. 10) Select the PreRecorded Message for the Emergency Page channel. Click the button at the right of its property Audio Source Wave Filename. In the resulting dialog, note that the two.pmf files you chose earlier for the DAC are available in the Tones/Message File field: default tones and default messages. Select the default tones.pmf to list its individual.wav files below. For the Emergency Page Tone, select 900 Hz from the Default Tones.pmf. This tone will play at the start of a page on the Emergency Page channel. Select the Evac message, and use the same process to assign one of the Evac1. wav s (male or female) from the Messages.pmf. Repeat this process for the Alert Message. 11) Insert a Local Page Board (LPB) under the DAC, and label it Local Page Board - 1st Flr. The LPB is required for the LVM and FMT to operate. 12) All within the Physical View drag the FMT, LVM and SCM to the DAC. Links are created under the DAC indicating that it will host these Control Area Network (CAN) modules. (The ^ in the element labels indicate CAN addresses.) 13) Insert the following components under the Voice CC-5: ZAC-40 ( Zone Amp Card - 1st Flr ), ZAC-40 (Bkup) ( ZAC Backup - 1st Flr ) and TZC-8B ( Telephone Zone Card ). Drag these to the DAC to create CAN links. Note that a dialog will ask whether these cards will be assigned to the DAC, or simply placed above it on the branch under the Card Cage. Select assign in each case. 14) Select the ZAC-40. This will be a distributedamplifier system; make sure that the property Bulk Amplification Riser Channel is set to Not Used. Repeat this step for the ZAC Backup. 15) Drag the ZAC Backup to the ZAC-40. The resulting link assigns this ZAC Backup to this ZAC-40. (Note: The ZACs cannot be backup-linked until after they are both linked to the DAC.) 16) Expand the ZAC-40 and label its Amplifier Circuit 1st Flr Speakers. Enter 40 for the circuit s property Speaker Wattage (40 Watts). Zeus will use this information at compile time to determine whether the configuration includes sufficient power supply capacity. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 19 Siemens Building Technologies

24 17) Expand the TZC and label its first three Telephone Circuits 1st Flr Tel Ckt, 2nd Flr Tel Ckt and Annex Tel Ckt. For each circuit, set the property Device Usage to Telephone Circuit. The remaining circuits will not be used. 18) A second ZAC and ZAC Backup are needed in the 1st floor enclosure to support the Annex Voice components, since the Annex will not have a full enclosure (CAB) of its own. Select the 1st floor CAB-2. Insert and label a CC-2 Card Cage, Voice System Cards - Annex. Under the CC-2, insert another ZAC-40 ( Zone Amp Card - Annex ) and ZAC-40 Backup ( ZAC Backup - Annex ). Again, Bulk Amplification Riser Channel must be Not Used on both. Drag both ZAC-40s to the 1st floor DAC for their CAN links. Assign the Annex ZAC Backup to the Annex ZAC. Expand the Annex ZAC-40 and label its Amp Ckt Annex Speakers. Set Speaker Wattage to ) The Annex LVM / SCM pair will be mounted in a 2- place Remote Box. Select the Node element. Insert a REMBOX-2; it will appear at the bottom of the Physical View. Label it Annex REMBOX Annex Office. For its property Power Supply PSC Address, enter 1, the HNet Address of the 1st Floor PSC which will power the REMBOX components. 20) To save effort, you will copy the 1st floor LVM and SCM for the Annex. Select the 1st Floor LVM and SCM, hold down the Ctrl key, and drag them to the REMBOX Inner Door to copy them. Select the REMBOX and use Find/Replace Text to change the Annex component labels from 1st Flr to Annex. Afterward, change the first SCM Switch label to Annex to 1st Flr. 21) The Telephone Group switches on the Annex SCM are not applicable, since there is no FMT in the Annex. Change the Telephone Group switch Usages and labels to Annex Alarm ACK, Annex Supervisory ACK and Annex Trouble ACK. These Acknowledgement switches will be useful, since an Annex user will not have a PMI with which to perform these functions. 22) The Annex LVM and SCM require CAN hosting by a DAC, which cannot be mounted in a REMBOX. Assign the LVM and SCM to the 1st floor DAC to assign CAN addresses to them. To do this over the long distance in the Physical View, select both elements, copy them (Ctrl + C, ), right-click the DAC, and select Assign To in the menu. Note: Communication between the DAC and the REMBOX is enabled by the RNI Remote Network Interface under the REMBOX. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 20 Siemens Building Technologies

25 23) Taking advantage of the floor plan similarities, you will now add Voice to the Main Building 2nd Floor by copying the Annex Voice elements. Delete the current Inner Door on the 2nd Floor CAB. Select the REMBOX Inner Door, hold down the Ctrl key, and drag it to the 2nd Floor CAB. Select the copied door, and use Find/Replace to change all occurrences of Annex to 2nd Flr. 24) Expand the SCM. Similar to the Annex SCM, change and re-label its Telephone Group switches to Alarm, Supervisory and Trouble Ack. Change the Switch 3 label to 2nd Flr to Annex. 25) Copy the 1st Floor Voice Card Cage (CC-5) to the 2nd Floor CAB. Expand the copied Card Cage and delete the TZC, since only one telephone system host is required. Select the Card Cage, and use Find/Replace to change all occurrences of 1st to 2nd and Primary to Backup. 26) Assign the LVM, SCM, and ZACs to the 2nd Floor DAC. Assign the ZAC Backup to the ZAC. 27) Select the 2nd Floor DAC. Uncheck the property First DAC and check Last DAC, since this is the second and last DAC on the DAC network. (This is necessary for this Style 4-wired system, but not for Style 7.) For the properties Tones File Name and Message File Name, selected the same PMFs as used for the 1st floor DAC. 28) Delete the Emergency Page PreRecorded Message, since page-type channels do not have backup sources. Change the Evac and Alert Message addresses to 1 and 2. Select the same.wav files for Audio Source Wave Filename as for the 1st floor. These Messages will become the backup sources for their respective channels. Part 2-2: Group Voice Elements (Geographic View) 1) Open and fully expand the Geographic View, while leaving the Physical View open as well. 2) Add a Zone, Annex Components, under the Annex Floor-level Group, with the Detail Message Annex Voice components supported by 1st Flr Enclosure. Select the Annex map for the Zone s Group Event Map Name. 3) Assign these elements to their respective Components Zones: DACs, Amp Ckts, Tel Ckts. The other Voice elements (CAN modules) can not be added to Groups. 4) Save the project. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 21 Siemens Building Technologies

26 Part 2-3: Set Up Voice Controls (Control View) 1) Open the Control View,, leaving the Physical and Geographic displayed as well. 2) Select the Project element in the Control View, and insert the element System Audio Channels. Its property Audio Distr. Topology must be set to Distributed, since this is a distributed-amplifier system using ZACs. 3) For this 3-channel Voice system, insert three Audio Channels under System Audio Channels. Set these channels up as follows: Channel ID Emergency Page Evac1 Alert1 Channel Type System Channel System Channel System Channel Channel Quality Improve, 11 khz (8 BW) Standard, 11 khz (4 BW) Standard, 11 khz (4 BW) The Channel Quality BW figures represent bandwidth, the amount of resources the channel will consume. A total of 16 BW is available. For each channel, set Channel Type to System Channel. The tones and messages for this system will come from the 1st floor DAC, with similar PMFs and.wavs stored in the 2nd floor DAC as Evac and Alert channel backups. If Local Channel were selected, each floor would use the messages in its own DAC. 4) Drag the Prerecorded Messages, under the 1st- and 2nd-floor DACs, from the Physical View to their respective Audio Channels in the Control View. For example, assign the Evac messages (primary and backup) to the Evac1 channel. Page-type channels do not allow backups; therefore, assign only the message Emergency Page Tone on the 1st floor DAC to the Emergency Page channel. 5) Select each of these Prerecorded Message links ( Device Audio Sources ). Check the property box Back Up Audio Source for each backup source. Make sure it is unchecked for each primary source. That is, each Prerecorded Message on the backup DAC on the 2nd floor must be checked as a backup source. The Emergency Page channel source, Emergency Page Tone, is a primary source and therefore unchecked. 6) From the Physical View, drag the Node element to the Project element in the Control View, to create the Control for FireFinder XLS Node 1 link. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 22 Siemens Building Technologies

27 7) Select the Control for Node link. In the Detail View, check Telephone Tones Enabled so that emergency phone users will hear call-status tones. Set Emergency Page Pre Tone Duration to 3 so the Prerecorded Message Emergency Page Tone will play for 3 seconds before a live page starts. Convenience Page Duration can be left at 0, and Voice Zone Coded System must be unchecked, since both are not used. Check Telephone Through Reset so that panel resets will not cut off conversations. Check all Strobe During boxes so that strobes will flash during Voice operation. (Note that strobes will flash when an Emergency Page is made, even without an Evac or Alert state.) Set Speaker Group Default to Emergency Page so pages play over those speakers receiving the Emergency Page channel, when no channel is activated. Uncheck all Auto Page properties so that the user is required to select the Evac or Alert channel before a page will play over that channel. 8) Select the Control for Node link. Insert and label a Command Station, 1st Flr CMD Sta Lobby. Command Stations are sets of Voice, Fan and/or Damper controls. This Command Station will be made up of the FMT phone, LVM mike, and the LVM and SCM switches on the 1st floor CAB door. 9) Drag all three Floors from the Geographic View to the Command Station. The Groups include Voice elements that this station will operate. 10) Select the 1st flr Command Station. Check the property Master Command Station so that this station by default has system access, and a user at another station must initially request access from the station in control by pressing the request button on the requesting station. 11) Copy, paste and re-label this Command Station to create the 2nd floor and Annex stations. For all stations, check Access Control Required, as well as the Access Required properties that apply to this system: Access Reqd for Emergency Page, Evac, Alert and Telephone. 12) Drag each Speaker Group SCM Switch from the Physical View to the Control View, to its respective Floor under its respective Command Station. Repeat this process for the Telephone Group SCM Switches (1st floor Command Station only). Each switch will activate the Group items that match its Usage, and ignore all others. 13) For each floor, drag all LVM switches and all remaining SCM switches directly to that Floor s Command Station. These switches apply directly to the operation of the Command Station itself. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 23 Siemens Building Technologies

28 14) Drag each LVM s MIC from the Physical View to the Control View, directly to its respective Command Station. For the 1st floor Command Station, assign the Master Phone as well. 15) Save the project. Manual Voice controls are complete. (Previous page; the Annex station, not shown, is similar to the 2nd floor station.) Part 2-4: Program Voice Functions (Function View) 1) Automatic Voice operations will now be added. Open the Function View, with the Geographic and Physical Views open as well. 2) The system must be programmed so that during an Evac-level condition, the Evac message automatically plays over the affected speaker zone, or an Alert message automatically plays during an Alert condition. This is readily set up using the Speaker Control Function. Insert and label a Speaker Control Function under the Logic Functions for Node element, 1ST FLR SPEAKERS. Drag the OR function 1ST FLR EVAC to the Evac 1 input, the 1ST FLR ALERT OR to Alert 1, and the 1st Floor Group to the output. When the EVAC OR is true, the Evac1 channel will play the EVAC message. The Alert1 channel will work similarly, unless the higher-priority Evac1 channel is active. The Emergency Page channel ( Local Emg Page input) is strictly manual and hence not used here. 3) Set up similar Speaker Control Functions for the 2nd Floor and the Annex. Save the project. Part 2-5: Check and Compile the Project 1) Click to run a compile-check of the project. This should result in the following error: the 1st Floor CAB-2 requires additional power to drive the new Voice components. 2) Select the CAB-2. Insert and label a PSX, Power Supply Extender - 1 st Floor, to supplement the PSC. (Only one PSC is allowed per enclosure, with a maximum of three PSXs.) 3) Another check will show the 1st flr CAB-2 is now too small for the additional components. Select the CAB-2. Change it to a CAB-3 using Edit > Find/Replace Tree Node. You will need to re-enter the label, 1st Flr Enclosure - Lobby. 4) Run the check again. There should be no further errors. The project can now be compiled. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 24 Siemens Building Technologies

29 1) Open the Physical View. In the 1st floor CAB-3, delete the 2 ZACs and 2 ZAC Backups, move the TZC and DAC to the CC-2 card cage, and delete the Voice CC-5 card cage. Change the CC-2 label to read Voice System Cards - 1st Flr. 2) In the 2nd floor CAB-2, delete the ZAC and ZAC Backup. Move the DAC to the Fire CC-5 card cage. Delete the Voice CC-5. Change the Fire CC- 5 label to Fire and Voice Cards - 2nd Flr. 3) Select the Node and insert a CAB-1. Change the Enclosure Number to 2 and label it 2nd Flr Enclosure - Hallway. Delete the PSC in this CAB-1. Expand the original 2nd flr CAB-2 and move its components to the CAB-1. Delete the CAB-2. This completes the system consolidation. 4) Select the 1st floor CAB. Insert and label a ZAM and ZAM Backup, Channel A Zone Amp Module and Channel A ZAM Backup. Insert another ZAM/ZAM Backup pair, labeled Channel B. 5) Drag the ZAMs and ZAM Backups to the 1st floor DAC for their CAN links. Drag the ZAM Backups to the ZAMs for the backup links. 6) Set property Bulk Amplification Channel Riser to Channel A on the Channel A ZAM and ZAM Backup. Use Channel B for the other pair. 7) Expand the ZAMs and label their Amp Ckts Channel A Speakers and Channel B Speakers. For each, set the property Speaker Wattage to 100, the combined wattages of the 1st floor, 2nd floor and Annex speakers. PHASE 2a: Using Bulk Amplification for Voice The Voice setup just presented consisted of a Distributed amplification system, in which each amplifier (ZAC) was dedicated to a speaker zone. For a system larger than this simple example, this approach can provide great flexibility, but also may require a significant amount of hardware. A Bulk Amplification setup allows the use of only one or two amplifiers to drive speakers over multiple zones. The tradeoff is that only one or two channels can be played at the same time within that system. While all Audio Channels can be accessed, if the system is so designed, only the two highest priority channels will play if three or more channels are requested. For example, if a two-channel bulk system is broadcasting over the Evac1 and Alert1 channels, and an Emergency Page is made, the Alert1 broadcast will be suspended during the page. In a two-channel Bulk Amplification setup, speakers are connected to two risers, Channel A and B. Each amplifier (ZAC or ZAM Zone Amplification Module) is associated with a ZIC Output Circuit in order to be switched in and out of its riser. In the Zeus Geographic View, each ZAM s Amplifier Circuit is linked multiple times, once to the each applicable Group in the system, along with the specific ZIC Output Circuit for that Group. The following procedure shows the steps relevant to converting the Acme Voice setup, which uses two ZACs in a Distributed Amplification scheme, to a Bulk Amplification scheme using two ZAMs, two ZAM Backups and one dedicated ZIC in the Lobby enclosure. The system will be consolidated to minimize enclosure sizes and the number of components. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 25 Siemens Building Technologies

30 8) The ZAMs will be physically wired to a new ZIC, which will perform the switching of the ZAMs into the Channel A and B risers. Insert and label this ZIC, Speaker Circuits, under the CC-5 in the 1st floor CAB. 9) Insert four Out Ckts under the new ZIC. Label the first three 1st Flr Speakers, 2nd Flr Speakers and Annex Speakers. For all four, set the property ZIC Circuit Usage to 25V Speaker. The fourth Out Ckt is not used directly. However, Speaker-usage Out Ckts must be set in pairs, Circuits 1 and 2 or Circuits 3 and 4. If Circuit 4 were not inserted and set to Speaker usage, an error would result during Check or Compile. 10) Open the Geographic View and leave the Physical View open. Expand the Project element until the Zone Groups are visible. 11) From the Physical View, drag the Amp Ckts under the ZAMs to all three Components Zones in the Geographic View. Do this so that the 1st Flr, 2nd Flr and Annex Components Zones each include links to both the Channel A and B Amp Ckts. (Note: The Amp Ckt is the only element that can be assigned to multiple Groups in the Geographic View. This is done only for Bulk Amplification.) 12) From the Physical View, drag each of the first 3 Out Ckts under the Speaker Circuits ZIC to its respective Components Zone in the Geographic View. Do this so that the Out Ckt labeled 1st Flr Speakers is assigned to the 1st Flr Components Zone, etc. Do not assign the fourth Out Ckt. 13) Open the Control View. Expand the Project element. Select System Audio Channels. In the Detail View, set Audio Distribution Topology to Bulk and Bulk Amplification Channel Count to Two. Close the Control View. The Function View does not need modification. 14) Run Check,. If errors or warnings appear, make the necessary corrections. 15) Save the project. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 26 Siemens Building Technologies

31 1) In the Physical View, select the Inner Door of the 1st floor CAB. Insert and label an FCM, Fan Control Module - 1st Flr. Expand the FCM, and label its first 3 switches 1st Flr AHU Off, 2nd Flr AHU Off and Annex AHU Off. The other switches are not used. Drag the FCM to the 1st floor DAC for its CAN link. 2) Make sure each FCM switch property Device Usage is set to Fan so the switches operate fans only, and the switch LEDs to properly indicate fan status. Make sure the property Active is checked. 3) Repeat this process for the 2nd floor CAB and the Annex REMBOX. For the Annex FCM, use the 1st floor DAC for the CAN link. 4) Select the 1st floor DLC. Insert and label an HTRI-R, 1st Flr AHU Control. The HTRI-R consists of a supervised switch input and a separate relay. The input will indicate AHU fan operation (via a switch on the fan itself) to the 1st floor FCM. The relay controls the power to the AHU fan. 5) For the HTRI-R property Switch 1 Base Language Custom Message (label), enter 1st Flr AHU Monitor Switch. For the Relay label, enter 1st Flr AHU Actuation Relay. These items and labels do not appear in the Physical View tree, but may be displayed on the PMI. Set the Switch 1 Display Category to Fan. 6) Set Switch 1 Usage to Fan Monitor On and Relay Usage to Fan Actuator Off. 7) Copy and paste this HTRI-R under the same DLC (1st Flr). Change the element, switch and relay labels from 1st Flr to Annex. Paste another copy of the HTRI under the 2nd flr DLC. Change its labels from 1st Flr to 2nd Flr. (In each case, Find/Replace Text can be used to quickly change all three labels: element, switch and relay.) 8) Open the Geographic View. Assign each HTRI-R from the Physical View to its respective Components Zone. PHASE 3: Adding Fan Control This section shows how fan control would be added to the original Acme fire/voice system. Both manual fan controls, using a Fan Control Module at each Command Station, and automatic controls are shown. The requirements for this addition are as follows: - The Main Building floors and the Annex each have an air handler unit (AHU) with fan and indication switch. - Each AHU is actuated and monitored using an HTRI-R Addressable Interface with Relay on existing device loops. - An alarm on a Main Building floor or in the Annex shuts down its AHU. - AHUs may also be shut down manually at each Command Station, using Fan Control Modules (FCMs). - Access control is required for manual fan control. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 27 Siemens Building Technologies

32 9) Keep the Physical View open. Open the Control View. 10) In the Control View, select each Command Station and check its property Access Required for Fans. 11) Under the 1st floor Command Station, assign each switch from the 1st floor FCM to the respective Group it will control. The FCM switches now address the HTRI-Rs controlling the AHU fans. 12) Repeat this process for the 2nd floor Command Station and FCM, then for the Annex. Manual fan control is now set up. 13) Close the Control View. Open the Function View and the Geographic View. 14) Select the Logic Functions for Node link.

From the physical tree, drag the ZIC-4A circuit Finance Bldg Audibles and Finance Bldg Strobes, 2:3-1 and 2:3-2 respectively, to the output list. Part 4-5: Setup Inter-panel Logic Functions 1) We are now ready to setup inter-panel logic for our XNET system example. For this we will be using Pseudo Devices under both FireFinder XLS Node 1 and Node 2. The logic written will send an Alert signal from one XLS node to the other XLS node when an event occurs. 2) First we will set up Node 1 so that an event in Node 2 will cause an Alert signal by dragging and dropping the Pseudo device at address 2:6-1 from the Physical view FireFinder XLS Node 2 to the input of the OR functions 1st Floor Alert, 2nd Floor Alert and Annex Alert on Node 1. Now, we will set up for events on Node 1 to signal an Alert on Node 2. To do this we will add three new OR functions to Node 1. 3) Select the Logic Function for FireFinder XLS Node 1. Add three OR functions. Label them 1st Flr Evac Main Bldg., 2nd Flr Evac Main Bldg, and Annex Evac respectively. These three new functions will be used to alert the Finance building if an event occurs on any floor of the main building or annex. Give each of these OR functions the comment Finance Bldg Alert. 4) Expand the 1st Flr Evac Main Bldg OR function. Select and drag the function labeled 1st Floor Evac to the input of this function. Select and drag the Pseudo point at address 1:18-1 on Node 1 to the output of this function. This pseudo point will be used to signal the main building s evacuation events at the Finance building.

Select and drag the function labeled Function Annex Evac to the input of this function. Select and drag the Pseudo point at address 1:18-3 on Node 1 to the output of this function. This pseudo point will be used to signal the annex building s evacuation events at the Finance building. 7) For Node 2 to sound an alert signal when events on Node 1 occur, we will need to bring those Pseudo points on Node 1 into Node 2. Select Node 2 and insert an OR function. Label it Alert For Event In Main Bldg. Drag Node 1 Pseudo point addresses 1:18-1, 1:18-2 and 1:18-3 from the Physical View of FireFinder XLS Node 1 to the input of this function. Leave the output empty. 8) Drag the OR function Alert For Event in Main Bldg to the Priority 2 input of the Audible Control function Finance Bldg. NAC CKTs. This function will signal an alert audible on Node 2 ZIC circuits 2:3-1 and 2:3-2. 9) Save the project. Compile and transfer the configuration file to both nodes. The inter-panel logic setup just presented between a FireFinder XLS Node and a FireFinder XLSV Node shows how event messages are transmitted over XNET from one node to the other. Alarm events in the Main building and Annex will sound an Alert audible signal in the Finance building. Alarm events in the Finance building will sound an alert audible signal in the Main building and Annex. Note: Input devices and pseudo points can be used as external logic input references via XNet. This completes our Setup for inter-panel logic between the two Siemens FireFinder systems. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 37 Siemens Building Technologies

56 CHAPTER 5 CONCEPTS AND OPERATIONS Comparison of Zeus and Microsoft Windows Explorer Common Windows Explorer operations that can be performed with Zeus elements: Drag-and-drop within and between View Windows (where permitted). Copy/Cut/Paste to/from the Windows Clipboard. Select a contiguous block of elements (Shift-select) or a scattered set (Ctrl-select). Right-clicking an element produces a menu of editing features. Notes specific to Zeus: The Detail View shows specific information for the currently selected element. The icon label can be entered or changed only in the Detail View window. (i.e., you can not change the label by pressing the F2 key or double-clicking on the label). Right-clicking on an element also produces Insert Menu choices and Show Source/Link functions. Elements, Links and Sources (Figure 5-1) As you use Zeus, it is important to distinguish between elements and links. Typically, you build a system by inserting elements, then assigning links, or references, of those elements elsewhere as needed. A link may also be considered analogous to a shortcut in MS Windows and Windows Explorer. The original element being referenced is called the link s source. The process of making a link is called an assignment. You can create and assign a link simply by dragging and dropping the source to a valid location elsewhere in the project. Elements can be dragged and dropped within or, in many cases, between View windows to make assignments. For example, you would add a fire detector to your project by inserting a detector element into the Physical View. From there, you might then drag and drop the detector element a group in Geographic View, to assign a link to the detector there. Similarly, you might repeat the process to assign another link to a logic function input in Function View. Drag/drop is context-sensitive: Zeus will not permit you to drop an element into a window or location where it does not belong. The cursor becomes a crossed-out circle over such invalid locations. Device source elements created in Physical View AND Function source element AND Inputs: Links to Fire Prints 1 & 2 OR Inputs: Links to AND Function & Fire Print 3 Figure 5-1 Link/Source Example Physical devices (top left) and their logical links in Function View. Equivalent logical diagram is shown above. It is important to understand that this is different than copying / cutting / pasting the element. You can avoid this confusion by dragging and dropping while holding down the right mouse button. When you drop the icon, a popup menu gives you the choice to cut/paste or assign, as appropriate. When you drag and drop using the left mouse button, you can still tell whether you are about to cut/paste or assign by the cursor shown: an assignment produces a cursor object with the same box-and-arrow symbol as a link icon.

57 As your system becomes more complex, you will need to keep track of sources and their links. For that, the Show Source / Links In command in the View Menu is essential. Depending on whether the selected element is a source or a link, the command toggles to show you the corresponding element(s) in the same or another View. FireFinder XLS Communications Protocols FireFinder XLS system components use the following specialized protocols for communications and control: Network XNet HNet P2 CAN Connects: Multiple nodes (systems) to each other. Circuit cards to a system. Devices on a detector loop to the DLC. Usually corresponds to the Device Address. Door-mounted modules to a system. Standard Control Area Network protocol. Understanding the View Windows Detail View (Figure 5-2) The Detail View window shows properties (settings and information) on the currently selected element and its immediate children. Hence, it changes with each new selection. Figure 5-2 Detail View Tabs Top: Properties Tab shows information for a Device Loop Card. Bottom: Elements Tab shows information for the DLC s children. Some of the most common properties that are edited in the Detail View are: Property Field Field Type Description (checked condition for checkbox properties) Base Language Custom Message Text The label that appears on the element in Zeus, and the identifier that will appear on the control panel (PMI) when the element is displayed there. CAN Address Numeric Address of a Control Area Network device under a host card/module. Device Address Numeric Address of a Siemens P2 protocol device under a host card/module. Device Usage Menu Application of the device within the system logic. Zone Coding Checkbox The element is part of a zone coded system. HNet Address Numeric Address of a card or module linked by the HNet protocol within a Node. Relay Base Used Checkbox Device includes a relay actuated by the connected device or system logic. Use Zone Code of Parent Group Checkbox Element s zone code is set by the Geographic group to which it belongs. Zeus 4.0 Quick-Start Manual 53 Siemens Building Technologies
