Manual Pull Station with Metal Housing
Installation Instructions
Model HMS-M
INTRODUCTION
The Manual Station Model HMS-M from Siemens Industry, Inc., is a field
installed addressable device containing advanced control panel communication
technology. This technology, which provides twodirection communication with
the control panel, produces an Intelligent Initiating Device.
The HMS-M is a single action station; when used with the MS-FD Adapter, the
HMS-M is a double action station.
PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to Figure 1 to locate the opening on the HMS cover that allows access to
the programming holes which are on the HMS printed circuit board.
The HMS-M must be in the Reset position in order for the unit to be
programmed. If the PULL-DOWN lever has been even partially pulled down, the
unit must be reset before it can be programmed.
The manual station is programmed by using the DPU Programmer/Tester. Because
HMS devices are polarity insensitive, the programming plug can be inserted
into the programming holes in either direction.
To prevent potential damage to the DPU DO NOT connect an HMS to the DPU until
at least one wire is removed from terminals 1 or 2 of the HMS.
Follow the instructions in the DPU Manual (P/N 315-033260) to connect the
cable provided and program the HMS to the desired address. Record the device
address on the nameplate label located on the inside of the HMS-M manual
station mounting plate. The HMS can now be installed and wired to the system.
OPERATION
The HMS-M manual station operates with the FireFinder-XLS or FS-250 Control
Panels via the DLC or FS-DLC Device Loop Card.
When an alarm condition occurs, pull down on the PULL DOWN lever of the manual
station. The pull-down cover remains down and locked until the station is
reset.
The HMS-M with the MS-FD Adapter has an additional lever labeled LIFT – PULL
HANDLE which must be lifted up before access is provided to the station PULL
DOWN lever.
WIRING
NOTES:
- Recommended wire sizes: 18 AWG minimum, 14 AWG maximum
- Wire larger than 14 AWG can damage the connector.
- When using shielded cable without metal raceway or with nonmetallic raceway, the shields should be terminated at the device ground terminal. If the device box is already grounded by another means, such as being mounted to a grounded structure, the wire shields should be continuous and must be grounded solely at the point of origin; for example, at the control panel.
- When using shielded cable with metal raceway, the wiring shields shall be continuous and grounded solely at the point of origin. The device ground terminal shall be connected to the grounded device box.
- When using metal raceway without shielded cable, connect the device ground terminal to the grounded device box.
- Metal raceway should be thoroughly grounded throughout the system.
- In supervisory: HMS-M draws 1mA.
- The HMS-M is a polarity insensitive device. Line 1 and Line 2 can be either line of the DLC or FS-DLC loop.
INSTALLATION
Distribute the manual station boxes throughout the protected area so that they are unobstructed, readily accessible, and located in the normal exit path. Place the manual station according to the regulations of the authorities having jurisdiction.
Surface Mounting| Mount the backplate to a Model MS-FB Backbox as shown in
Figure 3.
---|---
Flush Mounting| Mount the backplate to a user supplied single gang switchbox
as shown in Figure 3.
Do not overtighten the screws. Overtightening may distort the backplate.
To Reset Station| Turn lock barrel ¼ turn counter-clockwise with the allen key
provided. This will allow the front to hinge down, releasing PULL-DOWN plate
to disengage from the switch.
Return the front to its closed position, then turn the lock barrel back
clockwise.
