Description
Global Fire Orion Loop Interface
The GFE-ADLI is used as an interface between an ORION conventional panel and any of GFE’s analogue addressable systems. It allows the addressable panel to monitor and control the status of the conventional unit. An 8 way DIL switch and a pluggable jumper are provided, which will be used for setting the module’s address and the reporting mode. The module will transmit to the analogue addressable panel the status of the ORION Conventional Panel both in terms of Fire and Fault conditions and only one address will be occupied per module.
The module is reported by the addressable system as a Zone Monitoring Unit. The unit is also equipped with 3 LEDS that will provide an optical indication of the module’s status, namely: Polling Rate (GREEN), Faults (YELLOW) and Fire (RED). Finally, this unit allows the ORION panel to be controlled remotely from any of GFE’s analogue addressable panels allowing the user to Silence/ Resound Alarms (EVACUATION) and RESET when the pluggable jumper is fitted to the 2-way header provided on the module’s PCB board. If the same jumper is removed, the remote RESET operation is disabled and although the Addressable panel will be able to activate the SOUNDER circuits on the ORION panel, the SILENCE ALARMS will be disabled remotely and hence only available locally.
