INTRODUCTION

1.1. Basic Information
MAGPRO9601 is an addressable fire alarm control panel for detection, indication and signalization in case of fire alarm situation in the protected premises. The panel provides coverage of 96 zones and connection of 4 loop expander modules (MAGPRO96-L250 Loop expander). An arbitrary number of devices can be added to each zone, thus ensuring the easy adaptation of the system to any type of configuration. Addressable fire alarm panel MAGPRO9601 supports
operation with MAGPRO communication protocol.
Attention: Every MAGPRO96-L250 Loop expander provides up to 250 devices! MAGPRO9601 can operate as single panel or in a network with up to 64 panels, including other MAGPRO96, MAGPRO16, MAGPRO-REP Repeater fire alarm panels. The connection in the network between the panels can be realized via LAN or RS485 communication protocol. Only one type of connection can be used in a single network.
The MAGPRO9601 fire panel is equipped with a back-up supply battery in case of main power supply failure. The built-in 3V pill battery supports the uninterruptable operation of the real-time clock even in case of mains and back-up power supply failure at the same time. A TFT touch screen and LED indication provide information about the current system status and activated zones.
To avoid or significantly diminish problems when mounting the system, it must be carefully planned prior to installation. This includes: establishing an address for every device and planning a name of maximum 40 digits (including the spaces) for each address, thereby ensuring easy access to the device. According to the acting standards for establishing fire systems and the plan of the building, the devices must be grouped in zones.
1.2. Panel General View
MAGPRO9601 is mounted in a small metal box secured with one key-lock for limited access only from technical support engineers. The control PCB, main power supply unit and the loop expanders are organized together into the enclosure box. The metal box of MAGPRO9601 is designed for built-in mounting in 25mm thick drywalls – see for details item 2.3. The box is also designed for building of common modular structures with other operational panels as MAGPRO96GBB (external power supply unit), and other MAGPRO96 series panels, as the metal boxes can be easily mounted to each other with all hardware connections hidden inside – see for details item 2.4.
1.3. General Specifications
The MAGPRO9601 front panel consists of graphic 5-inch TFT touch screen display (dimensions 800×480) and a light emitting diode (LED) indication. Separate operator and engineer passwords provide access to the functions of the panel. Up to 4 loop controllers (MAGPRO96-L250 Loop expander) can be supplemented to the MAGPRO9601 outputs control module.
The system can be expanded by connecting to 64 fire panels MAGPRO series (MAGPRO9601, MAGPRO96, MAGPRO16 and MAGPRO-REP Repeater) to the Ethernet network, using TCP/IP for communication between them. MAGPRO9601 has a built- in real time clock and calendar, allowing day and night time modes of operation. Switching over between the day and night operation modes can be automatic or manual. Events like FIRE, RESET, fault, etc., are saved in the memory in an event log-file. It contains the time and date, the address of the device, the type (module, detector, sounder or periphery device), the name of the device, the zone, the name of the zone, etc.

4.1.2. Connection Diagram of Main Power Supply Unit and Back-up Battery
The connection between the accumulator battery and the main power unit has some special features. It is strongly recommended to use only battery with electrical characteristics and dimensions pointed from the manufacturer. Before connecting to the main power unit check the polarity of the battery. The battery cannot power up the panel before the mains supply has been switched on. Connect the battery after the mains supply is turned on. If the battery is new, it  will take a few hours before its complete charging! The charging of the accumulator battery is done at maximum current I=2A and charging voltage U < 13.8V.

Attention: Check the earth connection cable before switching on the mains power supply – the connection must be tight and stable to ensure the correct operation of the panel and accurate LED indication on main power source for possible problems with earth connection of the panel. Before the mains supply is switched on, check the correct connection of each loop, sounder or any other input or output, and the earth connection cable.

• Connect 230V AC power source to fuse terminal block as strictly observe the polarity.
• Connect the red cable to the positive pole of the battery, and the black cable – to the negative battery pole. Both of the cables are connected to the battery by means of a flat terminal lug Ø5mm or cable shoes.
• Place the temperature sensor behind or under the accumulator battery to provide correct measurement the battery temperature and calculation of the internal resistance value Ri.

4.2. Outputs Control Module
The Outputs Control module in MAGPRO9601 addressable fire alarm panel is a structure of two PCBs mounted to each other via interface slot: Monitored outputs PCB and Programmable Relays PCB.
ATTENTION: The Outputs Control Module could not work independently!
4.2.1. Elements Description

1. Monitored Outputs PCB. The PCB is under the Relays PCB. The elements are indicated with blue numbers.
2. Jumper for enable/disable indication for earth fault (Default). For example, if you want to enable the earth fault indication set a jumper.
3. Monitored Outputs – see the detailed description below.
4. LED (green) – Indication for data transfer between the main microprocessor of the panel and the Output Module. In normal operation mode it is constantly blinking.
5. LED (red) – Indication for power supply at the terminal for connection of the first Loop expander. In normal operation mode it is constantly lighting on.
6. Interface connector for connecting the first Loop Expander Module (on the back side of the Outputs Module).
7. Ribbon cable interface connector from the main power supply unit and to the front panel (on the back side of the Outputs Module).
8. Relays PCB. The elements are indicated with black numbers.
9. Programmable volt free switching over relay contacts – see the detailed description below.

Monitored outputs terminals:

This output is deactivated in case of system trouble or fault.
Fire R| Monitored outputs for connecting of auxiliary devices (e.g., signaling devices), 24V DC/0.1A. These outputs are activated in case of a fire alarm condition.
Fire P

ATTENTION: The total current consumption of outputs +24V, SND, FIRE R, FIRE P and FAULT R must not exceed 0.5A!
The output SND at activation, provides 24VDC@0.5A to the load, and outputs FAULT R, FIRE R and FIRE P, at activation, provide 24VDC@0.1A to the load. It is necessary to connect in parallel to the last device in the loop a 10k terminate resistor, so to ensure that the panel is able to detect any break or short circuit in the loop – see item 4.2.2 and item 4.2.3.
Programmable relay terminals:

Terminal| Description|
---|---|---
Rel 1-4| Programmable volt free switching over relay contacts each, 15A@24VDC. Each relay has one NO (normal open) and one NC (normal closed) contact with common lead on a terminal. When a relay output is activated the NO contact is closed and the NC contact is opened.

4.2.2. Connection of Sounders
To the monitored output SND, could be connected several sounders – Figure 18. The maximum number of sounders that could be connected in the circuit, depends on their total current consumption, which must not exceed 0.5A. Before connecting the last sounder in the circuit, parallel to it must be added resistor 10k.

4.2.3. Connection of Signalling Devices
To every monitored output FAULT R, FIRE R and FIRE P could be connected signalling and other control devices –
Figure 19. The maximal consumption of the devices should not exceed 0.1А.
Before connecting the last device in the circuit, parallel to it must be added resistor 10k.

4.3. MAGPRO96-L250 Loop Expander
The MAGPRO9601 addressable fire alarm panel operates with MAGPRO96-L250 Loop Expanders. The communication with connected to the loop addressable devices is via MAGPRO communication protocol.
The MAGPRO96-L250 Loop Expander (see item 4.3.2, Figure 20) realizes the connection between the Output Module and devices connected to the communication line.
The MAGPRO96-L250 Loop Expander has two basic functions: 1. Gathers data from the devices in the communication line and transfers it to the Output Module; 2. Receives commands from the Output Module and transfers them to the
devices connected in the communication line.
Every MAGPRO96-L250 Loop Expander support operation with up to 250 addressable devices.
The maximum current consumption (Imax) of the devices in the communication line in alarm state must be up to 500mA.
If the consumption exceeds this value an overload protection would be turned on.
In the configuration of MAGPRO9601 addressable fire alarm panel could be mounted up to 4 loop expanders.
4.3.1. Permissible Cable Length
The maximum length of the loop in the system could vary according to the cross-section and the ohmic resistance of the used cable.
ATTENTION: MAGPRO96-L250 loop controller supports up to 250 devices!
To ensure the correct operation of the system is necessary to make some calculations in advance:

1. To ensure the ability of the fire panel to receive the signals from the devices in the loop, calculate:
L C1max ≤ 123 / R C| 2. To ensure the ability of the fire panel to recognize the double addresses in the system, calculate:
L C2max ≤ 62 / R C| 3. To ensure the ability of the devices in the loop to receive command signals from the panel, calculate:
L C3max ≤ (12 / I max – R i ) / R C
---|---|---

Where:
LC1MAX, LC2MAX and LC3MAX – are maximum permissible length of the used cable, [km];
RC – is total ohmic resistance of the two wires of the used able; its value shows the magnitude of the cable resistance at length 1km [Ω/km];
RI – is the total resistance of the isolator modules in the loop;
Imax – is the maximum current consumption in the loop in alarm condition – total amount of the current consumption of all devices in alarm state in the loop.
Note: In case of using more than 15 devices MAGPRO series from type HD1, SD1, HSD1, MC and CZM, in calculation of Imax value is used the maximum current consumption in alarm state only for those 15 devices with the highest
consumption, and for the rest devices is used the consumption in stand-by mode.
For the max. current consumption in alarm state and the consumption in quiescent state with communication (stand-by mode) of a device refer to its installation manual.
LC – is the necessary length of the cable for the loop.
After calculating, the maximal length of the cable is determined according:

• If LC ≤ LC2max and LC ≤ LC3max – the fire panel will be able to communicate with the devices in the loop and also will be able to identify the presence of double address.
• If LC2max < LC ≤ LC1max and LC ≤ LC3max – the fire panel will be able to communicate with the devices in the loop but will not be able to identify the presence of double addresses.

ATTENTION: Always calculate the maximal cable length according the mentioned above formulas!
IF LC > LC1max or LC > LC3max – the fire panel would not be able to communicate with the devices.
4.3.2. Loop Expander Elements Description

1. Interface for connection of the loop line – see item 4.3.3.
2.  LED (red) – Indication for power supply of the Loop expander. In normal operation mode it is constantly lighting on.
3. LED (green) – Indication for data transfer between the main microprocessor of the panel and the Loop expander. In normal operation mode it is constantly blinking.
4. LED (red) – Indication for scanning the devices connected to the Loop expander. In normal operation mode the LED lights on continuously in 10 seconds intervals.
5.  Jumper for enable/disable indication for earth fault (JPEF). For example, if you want to enable the earth fault indication set a jumper.
6. Interface connector for connecting the next Loop expander (on the back side of the Loop expander).
7. Interface connector for connecting the Loop expander to the Output Module or to other (previous in order) loop expander (on the back side of the Loop expander).

4.3.3. Loop Line Connection
Connect the loop line to the MAGPRO96-L250 Loop expander as strictly observe the polarity. The “Channel A” is the starting point for addressing the connected devices, and “Channel B” is the end point. The addressing methods are described in item 5.2. To avoid faults and malfunctioning of the system, the loop line must be connected to the Loop expander only when the main and back-up supplies of the panel are off!

4.3.4. Adding Loop Expanders
The loop expanders are periphery devices in MAGPRO9601 system configuration. According the physical place of mounting, every loop expander takes a system factory address of periphery device that cannot be changed – see item 5.1 for general information about the factory addressing of periphery devices.
The connection between the loop expanders is via interface connectors for coupling the modules to each other.

1. Connect the interface connectors of the first and the second loop expanders.
2. Fix the second loop expander to the metal carrier of the panel.

The Loop expanders must be added or removed from the system configuration only when the main and back-up power supplies are off!
4.3.5. Finding Short-Circuit in the Loop Line
The connection diagram shown on Figure 23, gives the possibility to provide operation of the loop in case of short-circuit fault, using devices with built-in isolator modules. For example, short-circuit in section 2 will not influence the  operation of sections 1 and 3. The isolator modules at the both ends of section 2 will isolate it, and section 1 and 3 will continue working properly, as section 1 will operate by supply from the channel “A” and section 3 – by supply from  channel “B”. Since the fire panel will not be able to communicate with the devices from section 2, it will generate an alarm signal for lost devices and open circuit.
The maximum recommended number of devices between two isolator modules (module isolator device or using the built-in module isolator in a device) is 30!

4.4. Main control module PCB
The Main control module is situated on the back side of the front cover – Figure 14. On the Main control module is factory integrated a control module – uPC Module, for control of the panel functions and operations.
The Main control module PCB is not a periphery device.

1. CPU Control module integrated to the Main PCB.
2. Built-in 3V backup battery for the real-time clock. To activate the battery set jumper on J1 terminals.
3. LAN interface connector.
4. Micro USB port for software and firmware update.
5.  Connector to the Outputs Control module (factory connected).
6. Buzzer for sound signalization.
7. RS232 interface connector for connecting to a thermal-printer or other control equipment.
8. Restore Defaults Jumper for resetting the panel with default parameters.
9. Interface connector for a Redundant network module and Voice evacuation module to the system configuration.

4.4.1. Thermal Printer Connection
The addressable fire alarm panel MAGPRO9601 is equipped with RS232 interface connector, situated in the right bottom of the main PCB, for connecting a thermal printer. The thermal printer allows the technician to print the log file for the alarm and fault events, warnings and changes during programming. The capacity of log file is 10 240 events, which are saved with date and time of occurring.
MAGPRO9601 panels support operation with Canon 9 type external printers, models Kafka and Datecs (EP1000), stand-alone devices.
You can use only one printer connected to the MAGPRO9601 panel. The type of printer is selected from the installer programming menus at level 3: System- Programming-Panel-Printer.
For connecting the MAGPRO9601 panel to Canon type thermal printer, you must prepare a special cable for the purpose – connect two male DB9-DB9 (for model Datecs printer) or DB9-DIN5 (for model Kafka printer) type connectors as shown on Figure 24.

Before printing (access level 2 or 3), make sure that the thermal printer is connected to the Printer terminal and the printer is powered on.
To start printing enter menu: System-Maintenance-View Log and press Print button. If the thermal printer is unavailable or off, the button will be not operable.
4.4.2. Network Interface Card
The MAGPRO9601 addressable fire alarm panel is designed with option for connection in a redundant network with other MAGPRO9601, MAGPRO96, MAGPRO16 or MAGPRO-REP Repeater panels (up to 64). The redundant network
is based on RS485 interface using network interface card MAGPRO-NIC.
MAGPRO-NIC is an additional network interface card, sold separately. The interface card is mounted to Network connector of MAGPRO9601 main control module PCB. The additionally mounted PCB should be fixed with screws to the metal cover. The maximum cable length between two interface cards and/or repeater panel should not exceed 1000m.

To use the redundant module, the installer must set the Network type for all connected panels as “RS485” in installers menus (access level 3): System- Programming-Panel-Network-Network Settings-Network Type.
4.5. Connection of a Repeater Panel
The Repeater panel is a control panel for remote indication of fire alarm, fault, trouble, warning, and other type of events, reported from MAGPRO9601 and other MAGPRO addressable panels connected into one common network. The MAGPRO-REP Repeater can operate only as a part of a network. It repeats the status of the connected fire panels and informs for events.
Up to 64 panels can operate in a single network, including MAGPRO-REP Repeater, MAGPRO96, MAGPRO9601 and MAGPRO16 fire alarm panels. According the used Repeater model, the connection in the network between the panels
can be realized via RS485 interface or LAN:

• Model MAGPRO-REP TFT Repeater – RS485 interface or LAN
• Model MAGPRO-REP Repeater – RS485

Only one type of connection can be used in a single network.
RS485 Interface
The RS485 interface is built-in the repeater panel and the connection with MAGPRO9601 is realized via Network Interface card (Figure 26) connected to “NETWORK” connector on the main control module PCB.
The following table represents the correspondence of Tx/Rx terminal connections for IN and OUT communication lines.The repeater panel is powered up from an undependable external power supply 24 VDC – Figure 28. The maximum cable length between two network modules and/ or repeater panel is 1000m.

Up to 64 panels can be connected in a common redundant network.
LAN Interface
Model MAGPRO-REP TFT Repeater supports operation also via LAN network. Note: The LAN connector is accessible after removing the left and right side covers and the front panel of the enclosure box. The general connection diagram
for LAN network is presented in item 4.6.
4.6. LAN connection
The realization of LAN network is possible only for Repeaters TFT model and MAGPRO9601 and MAGPRO96 series addressable fire alarm panels (up to 64). The LAN connection can be direct panel-to-panel or by means of a HUB via TCP/IP protocol.
To operate in LAN network with other MAGPRO9601, MAGPRO96 and TFT Repeater panels, the installer must set for all panels “LAN” type of the communication protocol.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

5.1. Periphery Devices
All “functional modules” connected to the control panel configuration are defined as Periphery Devices, and have special programming and settings.
Attention: The Main control module PCB is not a periphery device!
Up to 6 periphery devices can be added to the system configuration of MAGPRO9601 panel.

The periphery devices have factory set address numbers that cannot be changed. The loop controllers always take periphery device addresses from 3 to 6 (fixed), but their current number is possible to be changed according the system
configuration.
The following drawing of the hardware configuration of MAGPRO9601 panel and the table next to it represent the fixed factory addresses of the periphery devices, which must be assumed during the initial power up and programming of the whole system.

Figure 30

System Name| Periphery Device| Factory Address| System Number
---|---|---|---
PSU| Power Supply| 1| N.A.
OUT| Output module| 2| N.A.
LOOP| LOOP 1| 3| Editable
LOOP| LOOP 2| 4| Editable
LOOP| LOOP 3| 5| Editable
LOOP| LOOP 4| 6| Editable

The free addresses for periphery devices are presented as EMPTY.
5.2. Methods for Addressing Loop Devices from the Panel
After connection the loop line(s) to the loop expander(s) and powering up the fire panel, MAGPRO9601 automatically recognizes the type of connected devices and shows them in the order of finding them along the loop line. The Installer can choose if to Save the devices with automatically set numbers, or to address them according the requirement of the installation specific for every protected site. The installer can use three approaches for adding and addressing devices
to the system configuration.

• The devices are directly connected to the panel via MAGPRO96-L250 Loop expander. The panel will recognize them and gives automatically addresses according the order of the devices in the line. The panel will start with the first free address in the system configuration. The installer can SAVE the new devices one-by-one or all at the same time with SAVE button from the Programming main screen.
• SELF ADDRESSING. The new devices are prepared for connection to the system configuration – the loop line is ready but the devices are not installed (the detectors and sounders are not mounted to the bases, the call points and modules are not connected to the loop). The installer enters (access level 3): System-Programming-Devices Addressing-Start Self Addressing menu. The panel shows the first free address for every of the available MAGPRO96L250 loops. Now the installer can start mounting detectors and modules one-by-one. The panel will set the displayed address number to the mounted device and automatically proceeds with next free address in the system.
• AUTO ADDRESSING. The auto addressing feature of MAGPRO9601 panel has the purpose to make the installation of the addressable systems easier. By using it the installer could mount all devices without setting address and then do it automatically by a single click in the panel. There are two main ways for auto addressing: by ID number of the devices, and by isolators.
  The direction of auto-addressing procedure by isolator module, according the positive and negative lines of theMAGPRO96-L250 Loop expander, is shown on Figure 31:
  

Routine Maintenance
MAGPRO9601 control panel does not require any specific maintenance. To clean the panel’s surface, use a dry cloth. Detergents or solvents should not be used to clean the panel and care must be taken that water does not enter the enclosure.
The control panels contain sealed lead acid batteries (12V/18Ah or 12V/17Ah) to provide standby power in the event of mains failure. This battery has a life expectancy of around 4 years. It is recommended that this battery be annually tested in accordance with the battery manufacturer’s recommendations to determine its suitability for continued standby applications.
Routine testing of the fire alarm system in accordance with EN54-14 will identify any malfunction of the control panel and any malfunction should be reported to the fire alarm maintenance company immediately.
Detection devices are automatically calibrated on a daily basis and any devices that fail the detector manufacturer requirements will be notified as a maintenance fault. The contamination status menu is also useful in determining detection devices that are approaching their working range limits.
Care of the TFT Screen
MAGPRO9601 is equipped with TFT control screen, presenting clear view and user-friendly interface for operation. It is recommended to use touch pen to avoid damage and contamination of the sensitive TFT screen during operation.
Do not use sharp instruments for pressing the screen, like screwdrivers, tweezers or pliers, because they can scratch or break the plastic surface of the screen and the panel to become not operational!
Attention: The enclosure box is not waterproofed! Clean the metal surface with a dry cloth only, and the TFT screen with cleaning sprays or foams containing no solvents (alcohol, acetone, ammonia, etc.).
