FlashScan, Exclusive New World-Leading Detector Protocol

At the heart of the NFS2-640 is a set of detection devices and device protocol — FlashScan (U.S. Patent 5,539,389). FlashScan is an all-digital protocol that gives superior precision and high noise immunity.
In addition to providing quick identification of an active input device, this new protocol can also activate many output devices in a fraction of the time required by  competitive protocols. This high speed also allows the NFS2-640 to have the largest device per loop capacity in the industry — 318 points — yet every input and output device is sampled in less than two seconds. The microprocessor-based FlashScan detectors have bicolor LEDs that can be coded to provide diagnostic information, such as
device address during Walk Test.

ONYX Intelligent Sensing

Intelligent sensing is a set of software algorithms that provides the NFS2-640 with industry-leading smoke detection capability. These complex algorithms require many calculations on each reading of each detector, and are made possible by the highspeed microcomputer used by the NFS2-640.

Drift Compensation and Smoothing: Drift compensation allows the detector to retain its original ability to detect actual smoke, and resist false alarms, even as dirt accumulates. It reduces maintenance requirements by allowing the system to automatically perform the periodic sensitivity measurements required by NFPA 72. Smoothing filters are also provided by software to remove transient noise signals, such as those caused by electrical interference.
Maintenance Warnings: When the drift compensation performed for a detector reaches a certain level, the performance of the detector may be compromised, and special warnings are given. There are three warning levels: (1) Low Chamber value; (2) Maintenance Alert, indicative of dust accumulation that is near but below the allowed limit; (3) Maintenance Urgent, indicative of dust accumulation above the allowed limit.
Sensitivity Adjust: Nine sensitivity levels are provided for alarm detection. These levels can be set manually, or can change automatically between day and night. Nine levels of prealarm sensitivity can also be selected, based on predetermined levels of alarm. Pre-alarm operation can be latching or selfrestoring, and can be used to activate special control functions.
Self-Optimizing Pre-Alarm: Each detector may be set for “SelfOptimizing” pre-alarm. In this special mode, the detector “learns” its normal environment, measuring the peak analog readings over a long period of time, and setting the pre-alarm level just above these normal peaks.
Cooperating Multi-Detector Sensing: A patented feature of ONYX intelligent sensing is the ability of a smoke sensor to consider readings from nearby sensors in making alarm or prealarm decisions. Without statistical sacrifice in the ability to resist false alarms, it allows a sensor to increase its sensitivity to actual smoke by a factor of almost two to one.

Field Programming Options

Autoprogram is a timesaving feature of the NFS2-640. It is a special software routine that allows the NFS2-640 to “learn” what devices are physically connected and  automatically load them in the program with default values for all parameters. Requiring less than one minute to run, this routine allows the user to have almost immediate fire protection in a new installa- tion, even if only a portion of the detectors are installed.
Keypad Program Edit (with KDM-R2) The NFS2-640, like all NOTIFIER intelligent panels, has the exclusive feature of program creation and editing capability from the  front panel keypad, while continuing to provide fire protection. The architecture of the NFS2-640 software is such that each point entry carries its own program, including control-by-event links to other points. This allows the program to be entered with independent perpoint segments, while the NFS2-640 simultaneously monitors other (already installed) points for alarm conditions.
VeriFire Tools is an offline programming and test utility that can greatly reduce installation programming time, and increase confidence in the site-specific software. It is Windows®-based and provides technologically advanced capabilities to aid the installer. The installer may create the entire program for the NFS2-640 in the comfort of the office, test it, store a backup file, then bring it to the site and download from a laptop into the panel.

Placement of Equipment in Chassis and Cabinet

The following guidelines outline the NFS2-640’s flexible system design.
Rows: The first row of equipment in the cabinet mounts in chassis CHS2-M2 (ships with the CPU). Mount the second, third, or fourth rows of equipment in a CHS4 series chassis or, for Digital Voice Command products, in CA-1 or CA-2. (For DVC and DAA components see DVC Manual; for DVC-AO applications, see AA Series Installation Manual).
Wiring: When designing the cabinet layout, consider separation of power- limited and non-power-limited wiring as discussed in the NFS2-640 Installation Manual.
Positions: A chassis offers four basic side-by-side positions for components; the number of modules that can be mounted in each position depends on the chassis model and the size of the individual module. There are a variety of standoffs and hardware items available for different combinations and configurations of components.
It is critical that all mounting holes of the NFS2-640 are secured with a screw or standoff to ensure continuity of Earth Ground.
Layers: The CHS2-M2 accepts four layers of equipment, including the control panel. The CPU2-640 fills three positions (left to right) in the first-installed layer (the back of the chassis); its integral power supply occupies the center two positions in the next two layers; the optional display occupies (the left) two positions at the front, flush with the door. Some equipment, such as the NCA-2, may be mounted in the dress panel directly in front of the control panel. The NCA-2 can be used as a primary display for the NFS2-640 (use NCA/640-2-KIT) by directly connecting their network ports (required in Canadian stand-alone applications); see NCA-2 data sheet for mounting options (DN-7047).
Expansion: Installing an LEM-320 Loop Expander Module adds a second SLC loop to the control panel. The LEM-320 is mounted onto the CPU2-640, occupying the middle-right, second (back) slot on the chassis. If networking two or more control panels, each unit requires a NCM-W (wire) or NCM-F (fiber) Network Control Module. The NCM-W/-F can be installed in any panel output module position (see manual); the default position is at the back of the chassis next to the control panel. Option boards can be mounted in front of the LEM-320 or NCM modules; for ease of access, complete installation of those devices before mounting another layer.

KDM-R2 Controls and Indicators
Program Keypad: QWERTY type (keyboard layout, at right).
12 LED indicators: Power; Fire Alarm; Pre-Alarm; Security; Supervisory; System Trouble; Signals Silenced; Points Disabled; Control Active; Abort; Pre- Discharge; Discharge.
Keypad Switch Controls: Acknowledge/Scroll Display; Signal Silence; Drill; System Reset; Lamp Test.
LCD Display: 80 characters (2 x 40) with long-life LED backlight (see illustration below).

Configuration Guidelines

Stand-alone and network systems require a main display. On single-CPU systems (one CPU2-640/-640E), display options are the KDM-R2 or the NCA-2. On network ystems (two or more CPU2-640/640E panels), at least one NCA-2 or NCS/ONYXWorks annunciation device is required. Other options listed as follows:
KDM-R2: 80-character backlit LCD display with QWERTY programming and control keypad. Order two BMP-1 blank modules and DP-DISP2 mounting plate separately. Requires top row of a cabinet. Required for each stand-alone 80-character display system. The KDM-R2 may mount in network nodes to display “local” node information as long as at least one NCA-2 or NCS/ ONYXWorks network display is on the system to display network information.
NCA-2: Network Control Annunciator, 640 characters. On single CPU2-640/-640E systems, the optional NCA-2 can be used as the Primary Display for the panel and connects directly to the CPU2-640/-640E. On network systems (two or more CPU2-640/ -640E’s), one network display (either NCA-2 or NCS/ONYXWorks) is required for every system. On network systems, the NCA connects (and requires) an NCM network communications module. Mounts in a row of FACP node or in two annunciator positions. Mounting options include the DP- DISP2, ADP-4B, or in an annunciator box, such as the ABS-2D. In CAB-4 top-row applications, a DP-DISP2 and two BMP-1 blank modules are required for mounting. Required for NFS2-640 applications employing the DVC-EM and DAA series amplifiers. See DN7047.
