Introduction
- This guide is designed to be used by competent persons who are familiar with the installation and setting up of fire alarm systems.
- This guide covers the basic setup of the Simplicity Plus panel and devices that connect to the system (detectors, call points, modules, and sounders).
- One important thing to remember with the Simplicity system is that the device address will dictate which zone it will be seen in (See below chart).
- The panel is available in 64 device (1 loop), 126 device (1 loop) or 252 device (2 loop) sizes.
| Simplicity 64 / 126 | Simplicity 252 |
|---|---|
| Zone | Addresses |
| 1 | 1 to 16 |
| 3 | 33 to 48 |
| 5 | 65 to 80 |
| 7 | 96 to 112 |
- These are the default zone settings, but the boundary address can be altered to allow more devices in certain zones if required.
Installation Steps
- The panel should be mounted to a firm surface and powered to check it sits without any issues
- All cables must be checked to make sure there are no shorts or open circuits.
- Address all the devices.
- All products will come with their wiring instructions. This should be used when connecting a product. But the wiring info for the most common item (Detector) is shown below.
The connection for the detector bases is made as follows:
- Terminal L1IN is –ve (Blue)
- Terminal L2 is +ve (Brown)
- These are the only two connections required.
| CONNECTING MAINS POWER | CONNECTING THE BATTERIES |
|---|---|
The panel should be connected to 220-240V AC by a 3A rated spur to the fuse box with 1mm2 to 2.5mm2 3-core cable.
Nothing else should be connected to this supply. The cable should be fire- resistant.
| Although there are many sizes of suitable batteries, the sizes we usually recommend for the Simplicity are 12V 7Ah, or 12V 12 Ah for larger systems
The two batteries are wired in series to give 24 Volts.
- Once all the installation has been checked for any cable faults, and all the devices have been addressed and fitted, connect the loop and turn the panel on.

4| Enter Device labels (Optional)| Go to Engineer screen (see 2 above) Press 5
for edit device
Use Prev/Next to select device to label. Press enter to bring up cursor
Enter text using keypad. Press enter to save text
Use Prev/Next to edit other devices as required
Testing / Commissioning
When testing the system for the first time it is recommended the following steps are taken.
- Test each device to make sure it triggers the control panel in a fire condition, e.g. panel shows the correct information and also starts the sounders.
- Test each device to make sure it triggers the control panel in a fault condition, e.g. detector removal, loop open circuit. Note that this can take up to 30 seconds to report.
- When testing both fire and fault make sure the text label that has been entered is correct and matches the device you are testing. (If a text label has been entered).
- Check the power supply triggers a fault when the mains power is disconnected and also when the batteries are removed.
Addressing the System
The Simplicity panel is per-zoned, so depending on the address you give the device will determine the zone it is in. The following chart shows the zone addresses.
