57 Amended: April 22EMEA Fire Technical Support: DF6000/CF3000 Applications GuideSmoke ControlFrom Jun17 radical software changes to the FC6/18 and the introduction of new modules MCOM-FCnow allow the Fan controller to be used as a Smoke control/management device.Rules.1. Allowed up to 48 output channels per loop, which means 2 x FC18 and 2 x FC6 or 8 x FC62. Each output channel will use 1 x MCOM-FC to provide volt free contact switching and 1 xMCIM programmed as a Technical Input(non-latching), to provide feedback of operation.3. The MCOM-FC replies as a Sounder beacon, therefore up to 60 can be installed on eachloop, this also means that the number of loop sounders must be reduced accordingly.The MCOM-FC is programmed NOT to respond to an Evacuation command.4. MCOM-FC must not be programmed for Global operation, in site installer they must beprogrammed either by address (the FC) or by Zone, if on another loop or panel. Generally, aspecific zone would contain the Fan controllers.5. Control outputs and Feedback from the Technical Inputs can now be programmed acrossdifferent loops and network panels.6. The Feedback device (MCIM) can only provide feedback for 1 channel.The FC is programmed by a right click on the icon and use ‘Edit Fan Controller’, use ‘Add Slave’Then go to channel 1.Ensure that channel is enabled (tickbox), then use the ‘Loop’ (tickbox) to specify the output device,and ‘Confirm’ (tickbox) to specify the feedback device. Ensure the stage 1 is set for continuousoperation.Once the channels are programmed as required then ALL of the affected panels and Fan controllerneed to be updated.To program the Fan controller gain access to the rear of the device, connect laptop to the serial porthit the reset button, right click the Fan controller icon and choose ‘Send Configuration to panel’.Fig 52
