APPENDIX A2
PROGRAMMING FOR DETECTOR TYPE
1. GENERAL
The default programming (i.e. pre-programmed options) for AZCs (circuits) and zones are
shown on the top of the "F3200 INPUT CONFIGURATION" sheet in Appendix B. They are
as follows:
Circuits
┌──────────┬────────────┬───────────┬─────────────────┬───────────────┐
│ Alarm │ Mode │ Delay │ Voltage Band │ Voltage Band │
│ Text │ │ (Type) │ B1 (0-3V) │ B3 (13-17.5V) │
├──────────┼────────────┼───────────┼─────────────────┼───────────────┤
│ 1 Smoke │ 1 Standard │1 Standard │ 1 Instant Alarm │1 Instant Alarm│
└──────────┴────────────┴───────────┴─────────────────┴───────────────┘

└──────────┴───────────┴───────────┴───────────┴───────────┴───────────┘
The default "circuit" programming suits most of the common "electronic" (as opposed to
"hard contact") smoke detectors and hard contact detectors in electronic bases, where these
are not used with external (remote) LED indicators.
Where other types of detector are used, or detectors are used to switch remote LED
indicators directly so that the alarm voltage is out of the B2 range (approx. 3V-13V), the
circuit will have to be programmed accordingly. In some cases constraints are also applied
to zone programming. For example, where a non-latching detector (e.g. Olsen P76B) is
used for air duct sampling, then as well as programming the circuit for the appropriate RAD
or SAD time delay sequence, the zone should be programmed as non-latching.
Programming circuits and zones is described in Sections 7.2 and 7.3 of this manual. The
following describes the relationships between detector types and circuit programming.
2. ALARM TEXT
Choose the appropriate text for each detector type e.g. smoke (default) for smoke detectors,
heat for thermal detectors, etc. There is provision for creating new names if the standard
ones are not sufficient.
The Instant Alarm text may also be changed if required (default is manual).
3. MODE
Mode 1 (standard) suits most detectors where remote LEDs are not used.
High Current Detectors
The following detectors require the F3200 circuit to be programmed into high current mode
(mode 2) to give sufficient LED (lamp) illumination current.
