FIREFINDER-XLS INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL | CHAPTER 1
The PMI is the primary user interface for the FireFinder-XLS system. It includes a 1/4
VGA monochrome LCD display with a 8x8 matrix touch screen and surrounding keys
used for menu navigation and system control. There are also LEDs for indication of
the Alarm, Trouble, Security and Supervisory events as well as the state of the
Audibles.
The PMI display continuously updates information
about the System status. If there are more events in
the system than can be displayed on a single screen, a
scroll bar appears to the right of the event list. Press-
ing the up and down navigation buttons to the right of
the LCD allows the operator to move throught the list.
Along the top and bottom of the LCD are rows of four
soft keys. The use of these keys is controlled by
software and backlit with a green LED which guides
the operator to the next action.
On the right hand side of the LCD are four navigation
buttons. These buttons allow scrolling up or down or
entering in and out of event detail screens. Also on the
right are three function-specific buttons: one for help,
one for menu access, and one for selecting the highlighted item on the LCD.
PSC-12 Power Supply The PSC-12 is a high current power supply that
provides the FireFinder-XLS system with primary
regulated 24VDC. It is rated at 12A and has a built-in
charger that is capable of charging up to100AH
batteries. It also has a microprocessor-controlled
transfer circuit that allows the PSC-12 to switch the
system power to stand-by batteries during loss or
reduction of the AC power.
The PSC-12 incorporates an 18A circuit breaker on
the battery input. It provides connection to a tamper
switch and terminal tie points for system signals.
The PSC-12 communicates directly to the PMI to report fault conditions and allows
the PMI to query the status of the power supply. It has four programmable single
pole double throw relays. Two relays are defaulted to activate when the degrade
ALARM bus or degrade TROUBLE bus is asserted.
CC-5 Card Cage The CC-5 provides a central point for mount-
ing up to five circuit card assemblies. If a
card requires power, it is applied through the
removable terminal block at the bottom of
the cardcage. All external devices for the
card are connected to the card through the
two removable terminal blocks at the top of
the cardcage.
