SAFETY SUMMARY
This entire manual must be read and understood before installation.
Installation Precautions Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term
reliability:
WARNING Several different sources of power can be connected to this fire alarm control unit.
Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equipment
may be damaged by servicing while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install,
service, or operate this control unit until this manual is read and understood.
System Re-acceptance Test after Re-Programming: To ensure proper system operation, this
system must be retested in accordance with NFPA 72 Chapter 10 after any programming
CAUTION change. Re-acceptance testing is also required after any addition or deletion of system
components, and after any modification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring.
All components, circuits and system operations known to be affected by a change must be
100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least
10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50
devices, must also be tested and proper system operation verified.
This system meets UL/FM requirements for operation at 32°-120°F (0 to 49°C) and at a relative humidity of 93%
(non-condensing) @ 90°F (32.2°C). However, the useful life of the system’s standby batteries and the electronic
components may be adversely effected by continuous operation at these environmental limits. Therefore, it is
recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a nominal room
temperature of 60-80°F.
Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to
lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning transients and interference,
proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. The use of overhead or outside aerial wiring is not
recommended due to the increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Applications
Engineering Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered.
Do not install electronic assemblies prior to mounting and attaching conduit for field wiring to the enclosure.
Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery and printed circuit board locations. Do
not over tighten screw terminals. Over tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact
pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.
This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before
handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static suppressive packaging to protect
electronic assemblies removed from the control unit.
Follow the instructions in this manual. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage to the control unit
and associated equipment. System operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.
Fire Alarm System Limitations While installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance
rates possible, it is not a substitute for fire insurance!
An automatic fire alarm system – typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, notification
appliances, and a fire alarm control unit with remote-notification capability – can provide early warning of a developing
fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
Any fire alarm system may fail for a variety of reasons:
Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in walls, on
roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors on one level also may not sense a fire on another level
or floor of a building. A second floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor or basement fire.
Furthermore, all types of smoke detectors, both ionization and photoelectric types, have sensing limitations. No type of
smoke detector can sense every kind of fire caused by carelessness and safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent
explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with
matches, or arson.
P/N 06-236529-001 iii December 2004

SAFETY SUMMARY (CONT.)
Notification appliances, such as bells, may not alert people if these appliances are located on the other side of
closed or partly open doors or are located on another floor of a building.
A fire alarm system will not operate without electrical power. If AC power fails, the system will operate from
standby batteries only for a specified time.
Rate-of-Rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rate-of-rise feature
of each detector should be tested by a qualified fire protection specialist as recommended in NFPA 72, Chapter 10.
Auxiliary Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible with the control unit. It is essential to
use only equipment listed for service with your control unit.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premise to a central monitoring station may be out of
service or temporarily disabled.
The most common cause of fire alarm malfunctions, however, is inadequate maintenance. All devices and system
wiring should be tested and maintained by professional fire alarm installers following written procedures supplied
with each device. System inspection and testing should be scheduled monthly or as required by national and/or
local fire codes. Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.
GENERAL SAFETY NOTICES The following must be observed to maintain personnel safety.
The following general safety notices supplement specific warnings and cautions appearing in the manual. The
safety precautions in this section must be understood and applied during operation and maintenance. This
manual is to be used by trained distributors/technicians. The entire manual should be read and fully understood
prior to installation.
FIRST AID
Any injury, no matter how slight, should never go unattended. Always obtain first aid or medical attention
immediately.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The following general safety precautions are to be observed at all times:
1. All electrical components associated with equipment shall be installed and grounded in accordance with
NEC and local regulatory requirements.
2. Special precautionary measures are essential to prevent applying power to equipment at any time mainte-
nance work is in progress.
3. Before working on electrical equipment, use a voltmeter to ensure that system is not energized.
4. When working near electricity, do not use metal rulers, flashlights, metallic pencils, or any other objects hav-
ing exposed conductive material.
5. When connecting a meter to terminals for measurement, use a voltage range higher than expected voltage to
be measured.
CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
A caution identifies a procedure, practice, or statement, which, if not strictly followed, could
result in programming errors, impairment of equipment operation, or equipment damage.
CAUTION
A warning identifies an operating or maintenance procedure, practice, condition or

statement, which, if not strictly followed, could result in personal injury or death.

1-4 SMARTONE™ DETECTORS
The FENWALNET 6000 uses the SmartOne™ Series of intelligent smoke and heat detectors. These
detectors have their own data transceivers, micro-controllers, micro-controller memory, and
algorithms that allow the detectors to determine whether a normal, pre-alarm, alarm, or trouble
condition exists at their monitoring locations. Each detector continuously transmits its current status
to the FENWALNET 6000 through the signaling line circuit, and responds to control unit polling and
inquiries by the address that is set in the detector using the Handheld Programmer,
P/N 74-200013-001, or using the FENWALNET 6000’s display. The pre-alarm and alarm thresholds
are programmable for each detector.
A blinking LED on an intelligent detector indicates communications between the detector and
the control unit.
1-4.1 SmartOne Ionization Smoke Detector, Model CPD-7052
The Model CPD-7052 Ionization Smoke Detector is a low-profile, intelligent smoke detector
that uses an ionization sensing chamber. This detector can be utilized for open-area coverage
or can be mounted in a duct with air velocities up to 2,000 feet per minute.
Ionization detectors respond best to small smoke particles characteristic of flaming fires, and
are used primarily in areas where such fires are anticipated. They are also used in special
extinguishing systems as one criterion to release the extinguishing agent. See Figure 1-9.
Note: Older-style Model CPD-7040 Ionization Detectors may be used with the FENWALNET
6000 Control Unit.

2-7 AC AND DC POWER CONNECTIONS
The control unit uses commercially- or end-user-provided AC power as the primary power source,
together with a 24 Vdc standby battery (when required by local codes and/or Authority Having
Jurisdiction [AHJ] requirements).
Two different sources of power can be connected to the control unit. Disconnect both
sources of power and critical components such as control heads for special extinguishing
systems and addressable pilot relays controlling facility-power shutoff before servicing
WARNING the control unit. The control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by
connecting wiring while the control unit is energized.
Use caution when connecting power. High-voltage and AC-powered circuits are present in
the control unit. Be sure to adequately ground the control unit to reduce the risk of
WARNING electrical shock.
2-7.1 AC Power Connection
The primary AC power for the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit is 120 Vac, 50/60 Hz, 3.2 A or
220/240 Vac, 50/60Hz, 1.6A. The default power configuration is 120 Vac and will require
resetting for 220/240 Vac operation. Configuration of primary AC power requires that the
power-selection switch on the side of the power supply be set correctly before the power supply
is installed in the enclosure, and that Switch S4 in the lower-left corner of the printed-circuit
board be set to agree with the primary AC power being used. Refer to Paragraph 2-5.
Over-current protection for this circuit must comply with Article 760 of the National Electrical
Code (NEC) and/or the local electrical code. Use a grounded power cord of #14 AWG or larger
wire with 600 Vac rating to make the AC power connection to the control unit. Follow the
procedure below to make AC power connections.
1. Disconnect all power sources from the control unit and the AC power cord
2. Run AC-input wiring to the left side of the enclosure, and preferably, use the lowest of the
three knock-outs on the left-hand side as the entry point for primary power.
3. Connect the primary power earth-ground (green) wire to the lower Earth Ground stud on
the left inside of the enclosure.
4. Connect the neutral (white) wire to the Main Circuit Board Terminal Block TB13
labeled ‘N’ (Neutral).
5. Connect the hot (black) wire to the Main Circuit Board Terminal Block TB13 labeled
‘L’ (Line).
6. Remove the AC Safety Cover, 3/4” nylon spacer, and 1-1/8” nylon screw from the
installation kit. Fold the cover along its scored lines and install it over the AC power input
terminals, as shown in Figure 2-8.

7. Set AC-Power-Selection Switch S4 on the main printed-circuit board to correspond to the
AC input power (120 Vac, 50/60 Hz, or 220/240 Vac, 50/60 Hz) being used.
2-7.2 DC Power Connection
Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can cause severe burns to the skin and eyes and can
damage clothing. Immediately flush areas of the skin or eyes that have been contacted
WARNING with sulfuric acid for 15 minutes with water and seek medical attention promptly.
Note: Observe polarity when connecting the battery to the control unit.
To connect the standby battery to the control unit:

1. Calculate the size of the battery required for the application. Refer to Appendix A for the
proper procedure.
2. Connect two 12-volt, series-wired batteries of the required ampere-hour (AH) capacity to
printed-circuit board Terminals TB3 using the battery cable. See Figure 2-9.

• Series-wired initiator assemblies
• Single control head or solenoid valve
• Two series-supervised, parallel-actuated control heads or solenoid valves.
The release circuits are labeled Release1 and Release2 and have field-wiring connections that
terminate at TB12 and TB11, respectively.
Ensure that all releasing devices are physically disconnected from the releasing circuits
WARNING before performing any system testing or maintenance.
2-11.1 Releasing Circuits for Series-Wired Initiator Assemblies
Initiator assemblies are Class-C explosives. Always use safety glasses or a face shield when
handling them. Do not remove the shorting cap from the initiator assembly until the
assembly is installed in the agent-storage container. Physical abuse or static-electricity
WARNING discharge could cause inadvertent initiator actuation and personnel injury. The installer
must establish a common electrical potential with the initiator assembly and the agent-
storage container before either removing or inserting the shorting cap.
Figure 2-23 shows series-wired initiators connected to a releasing circuit. Each releasing
circuit is capable of either one of the following two arrangements:
• A maximum of 12 P/N 31-199932-004 initiators, connected in series, with a total-circuit
resistance of 10 ohms +/- 1 ohm.
• A maximum of 6 P/N 93-191001-001 initiators, connected in series, with a total-circuit
resistance of 10 ohms+/- 1 ohm.
These two types of initiators must not be mixed together on the same release circuit. A releasing
circuit is supervised and non-power-limited when used with series-wired initiators. Refer to the
FENWALNET 6000 Programmer’s Guide to configure one or both releasing circuits to actuate
series-wired initiator assemblies.

CHAPTER 3
SYSTEM OPERATIONS
3-1 FENWALNET 6000 SYSTEM OPERATIONS OVERVIEW
This chapter deals with the operation of a FENWALNET 6000 system.
The FENWALNET 6000 System uses field-programmable software. Refer to the Configuration Software
User’s Guide in P/N 74-600000-008 for instructions on how to program the FENWALNET 6000
System.
3-2 SYSTEM OPERATION
This section instructs the end-user how to operate a FENWALNET 6000 System, including how to
distinguish the different operating states, how to use the operator keys, and what the status indicating
LEDs mean.
Refer also to the Operating Instructions, P/N 06-236405-001, that are packaged with the FENWALNET
6000 Control Unit.
3-2.1 Operating States
The FENWALNET 6000 system has two operating modes: Normal and Off-Normal. Normal
Mode is characterized by the absence of any initiating signals from either automatic detectors
or monitor modules, and by the absence of trouble conditions. Off-Normal Mode is triggered
by system events or operator interrogation via the keypad. Off-Normal Mode operating states
are listed in Table 3-1.
Table 3-1. Off-Normal Mode Operating States
Operating State Triggering Event(s)
Access-Via-Menu A operator uses the keypad to isolate initiating devices and/or outputs, list configuration
settings and the application program, adjust configuration settings, or manually initiate
testing procedures.
Trouble A report of a problem that could prevent the FENWALNET 6000 System from proper
operation. Typical trouble signals include: Lack of response from a configured device on the
signaling line circuit; Internal fault reported by a SmartOne detector; Loss of monitoring
integrity of the installation conductors; Power-supply fault; and/or Loss of primary AC
power.
Alarm An automatic spot-type smoke or heat detector or a high-sensitivity smoke detector senses a
fire signature that is greater than the detector's programmable alarm threshold, or when a
monitor module programmed as a manual-alarm, manual-release, waterflow or general-
alarm point activates.
Pre-Alarm An automatic spot-type smoke, heat detector or a high-sensitivity smoke detector senses a
fire signature that is greater than a programmable, lower-level warning threshold but less
than the detector's programmable alarm threshold.
Supervisory A monitor module detects a condition such as gate-valve closure, low air pressure or water
level, or pump failure that could impair the operation of a building's sprinkler system. It
also enters this state when an operator isolates any initiating or control devices or control-
unit-based output circuits. This mode is primarily event-driven.
3-2.2 Outputs Activation
The FENWALNET 6000 System operation is control by events. Control-unit-based or

signaling-line-circuit-based outputs are activated by user-specified operating instructions
P/N 06-236529-001 3-1 December 2004

System Operations
contained in the system’s event output control (EOC) program. The EOC program is
triggered by any event that transitions the system from the Normal Mode to an event-
driven, Off-Normal operating state.
Note: All alarm events must be annunciated by public-mode notification.
3-2.3 Operator Keys
Operator keys for the FENWALNET 6000 System are located on the display inside the control
unit. The control unit door must be open to access the operator keys.
Figure 3-1 shows the location of the operator keys and status indicating LEDs on the display.
Table 3-2 lists the names and functions of the operator keys on the display.

BUTTON FUNCTION
<ACKNOWLEDGE> The <ACKNOWLEDGE> Key allows the operator to signal the FENWALNET 6000
System Control Unit that a new event currently being displayed is understood. The
control unit's audible notification appliance will silence and all flashing Pre-Alarm, Alarm,
Supervisory, or Trouble LEDs will light steadily when all active events have been
acknowledged.
<SILENCE> Pressing the <SILENCE> Key after all current alarm events have been acknowledged
shuts off any active, silenceable control-unit-based or signaling-line-circuit-based outputs,
such as notification-appliance circuits or control modules.
Note: There is a 10-second buffer period during which subsequent presses of the
<SILENCE> Key are intentionally ignored. A subsequent key press will only be acted
upon after at least 10 seconds have elapsed since the previous key press.
<RESET> The <RESET> Key restores the FENWALNET 6000 System to Normal Mode after all
alarm system events have been acknowledged and have ceased reporting alarm
conditions.
<SCROLL> The <SCROLL> Key allows the operator to view all currently-active events by time of
occurrence. Also used to navigate through the menu options.
NUMERIC KEYPAD (0-9) Used to enter passwords, navigate through the menu options, and specify numeric
operating data.
<BACKSPACE> Used to exit the menu system and to delete incorrect entries.
<ENTER> Used as the <ENTER> Key for the menu system.

Table 3-3 lists the names and functions of the system status LEDs on the display.
Table 3-3. System Status LEDs and Functions
LED COLOR FUNCTION
Power On Green A steady LED indicates primary AC power is on at acceptable levels.

An unlit LED indicates unacceptable AC power levels or AC power is disconnected.
Alarm Red A flashing LED indicates one or more unacknowledged alarm events, or that a
previously-acknowledged non-latching alarm device has issued an alarm-off report.
A steady LED indicates all alarm events and alarm-off reports have been
acknowledged.
The LED turns off when the control unit is reset if all current alarm events and
alarm-off messages have been acknowledged and none of the alarm-initiating
devices are reporting alarms.
Pre-Alarm Yellow A flashing LED indicates unacknowledged pre-alarm events.
A steady LED indicates all current pre-alarm events have been acknowledged.
The LED turns off when the control unit receives pre-alarm-off messages from all
alarm-initiating devices that had reported a pre-alarm.
Trouble Yellow A flashing LED indicates unacknowledged trouble events.
A steady LED indicates all trouble events have been acknowledged.
The LED turns off when the control unit receives trouble-off messages from all SLC
devices or control-unit monitoring circuitry that had reported trouble conditions.
Supervisory Yellow A flashing LED indicates one or more unacknowledged supervisory events.
A steady LED indicates all supervisory events have been acknowledged.
The LED turns off when the control unit receives supervisory-off messages from all
initiating devices that had reported supervisory conditions.
Silence Yellow A steady LED indicates the Silence Key has been pressed after all current alarm
events have been acknowledged.
The LED turns off when 1) the control unit is reset, or 2) the Silence key is pressed
to toggle on any previously-silenced NACs and SLC-based modules. The Silence
key will repeatedly toggle the NACs and SLC-based modules off and on and the
Silence LED will track the activation state of the NACs and modules until the

3-2.5.2 MENU OPERATION
The FENWALNET 6000 has a built-in menu structure. This menu structure has been
implemented to aid users with system operating functions. The following paragraphs
describe the menu structure, how to access the menu, menu functions, and how to exit
the menu.
An operator can use menu operation to:
• Isolate initiating devices and/or outputs
• List configuration settings and the application program
• Adjust configuration settings
• Initiate manual testing procedures
An operator cannot use menu operation if:
• He is attempting to access the main menu via an RDCM while another operator
already has access to the system
• Another operator already has access to the system through the configuration
program’s terminal-emulation mode (Refer to the FENWALNET 6000
Programming Guide for information on terminal-emulation mode.)
Any of the following events cancel Menu operation:
• An alarm signal
• An operator presses the <Backspace> Key at the main menu.
• A period of 60 seconds elapses from the last pressed key.

Table 3-4 lists and provides a brief description of typical functions that can be
performed using the FENWALNET 6000 System’s menus. Figure 3-4 contains
the FENWALNET 6000 main menu functions and top-level displays.
Table 3-4. Main Menu Functions and Descriptions
Menu Function Description
Isolation Device and The isolation commands prevent the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit from acting
Circuit Isolation upon signals from initiating devices or from issuing activation commands to control-
unit-based and SLC-based outputs. The initiating devices and outputs remain
operational, but are disconnected from the control unit in the sense that events
reported by isolated initiating devices are ignored by the control unit and commands
to activate are ignored by isolated outputs and control modules.
List Listing of Events The list commands are used to view the set of isolated initiating devices and control-
and System unit-based and SLC-based outputs. These commands are also used to display
Settings configuration settings for automatic initiating devices, to display the list of devices on
the SLC and to view lower-level events that are not displayed due to the occurrence of
higher-level events.
Set Change The set commands allow the installer to change the sensitivity settings for Smart-One
Operating automatic initiating devices, to address and register initiating and control devices, or
Parameters to define global operating parameters such as Global Acknowledgement of trouble
and supervisory events. These commands are also used to trigger automatic
configuration routines such as AutoLearn and AutoSetup.
Test Confirming The test commands enable service personnel to test the SmartOne initiating devices
Proper for the ability to transmit alarm signals. You can also perform alarm-simulation tests
Operation for the system's application program and can command on control modules
connected to the SLC.

3-2.5.2.2 Isolate Menu Functions

The Isolate functions prevent the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit from acting
upon signals from initiating devices or from issuing activation commands to
control unit-based and SLC-based outputs. The initiating devices and outputs
remain operational, but are disconnected from the control unit in the sense that
events reported by isolated initiating devices are ignored by the control unit and
commands to activate are ignored by isolated outputs and control modules.
A Supervisory signal will occur after each Isolation command is executed, and
will remain in effect until all Isolation commands are subsequently cancelled by
their corresponding De-Isolation commands.
For Top-Level Isolate Menu Functions, refer to Figure 3-4. For the complete
Isolate-Menu tree, refer to Figure 3-5.
The following paragraphs list the Isolate Menu functions.

Purpose: To perform multiple input and/or output isolations via a single
menu selection. The inputs and/or outputs to be isolated are assigned to an
"isolation macro" that is defined via the FENWALNET 6000 Configuration
Program. The FENWALNET 6000 Configuration Program permits two
"isolation macros" to be defined. Each macro can process up to ten separate
isolation commands. The specific isolation commands are executed when
either the "Isolation Macro 1" or "Isolation Macro 2" menu options are
selected. The isolation lists can include any of the following: initiating
devices, control modules, or control-unit-based outputs individually or by
address range. This includes automatic initiating devices, monitor
modules, control modules, releasing circuits, notification-appliance
circuits, combination notification-appliance / releasing circuits, and
programmable relays. Refer to the FENWALNET 6000 Programming Guide
for the procedure to assign initiating devices, control modules, or control-
unit-based outputs to either "Isolation Macro 1" or "Isolation Macro 2".
Note: Selecting the isolation-macro option for a second time will execute
a de-isolation routine for all the devices and/or circuits that were
isolated by the execution of the isolation macro. The isolation
macros toggle the devices in the command lists between the isolated
and non-isolated states.

percent per foot when used for an open-area application. Alarm thresholds
can be set in 0.1 percent-per-foot increments. A pre-alarm threshold can also
be set anywhere within the obscuration range of 0.5 to 1.4 percent per foot,
but must be less than the detector's alarm threshold. Two additional alarm-
reporting ranges are defined for special applications. The in-duct range refers
to detector placement in an air duct. The DH-2000 range refers to detector
placement in a DH-2000 Duct Housing with associated sampling tubes to
monitor the air in either a supply- or return-air duct. The alarm ranges for
these special applications are as follows:
Application Pre-Alarm/Alarm Range (%/foot)

Approved for alarm reporting anywhere within the obscuration range of 0.5
to 3.5 percent per foot when used for an open-area application. Alarm
thresholds can be set in 0.1 percent-per-foot increments. A pre-alarm
threshold can also be set anywhere within the obscuration range of 0.2 to
3.4 percent per foot, but must be less than the detector's alarm threshold.
Two additional alarm-reporting ranges are defined for special applications.
The in-duct range refers to detector placement in an air duct. The DH-2000
range refers to detector placement in a DH-2000 Duct Housing with
associated sampling tubes to monitor the air in either a supply- or return-
air duct. The alarm ranges for these special applications are as follows:
Application Pre-Alm Range (%/ft.) Alm Range (%/ft.)
In-duct 0.2 - 1.9 0.5 - 2.0

DH-2000 0.2 - 1.9 0.5 - 2.0
Photoelectric detectors can be automatically programmed to change

alarm thresholds by time of day if they are configured for day/night
operation. The night alarm thresholds must be less than the
corresponding day thresholds.

3-2.5.2.4.25 How to Run the AutoSetup Procedure

Purpose: The AutoSetup Procedure executes a Registration Procedure for

operation as a waterless fire-suppression system. The following operating
characteristics are assigned to the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit and its
associated SLC devices.
1. SLC Device Assignments
Automatic activation of the extinguishing system will be via crossed-
zoned alarm-initiating signals generated by combinations of automatic
initiating devices assigned to any of the first 100 addresses on the SLC.
One half of the crossed-zoned alarm-initiating system will consist of any
automatic initiating device addressed within the range of 001 through
050. The other half of the crossed-zoned automatic-initiating system
will consist of any automatic initiating device addressed within the
range of 051 through 100.
Spot-type detectors from each half of the crossed-zoned detection
system must be alternated throughout the protected area.
The extinguishing system will be manually activated by monitor
modules (i.e., AIs) configured as manual-release stations. Operation of
a manual-release station will cause all alarm and shutdown devices to
operate as if the system had operated automatically and will cause an
immediate activation of the fire-extinguishing system. Operation of a
manual-release station will override the operation of all abort switches.
Each monitor module with address within the range of 101 through 105
will be assigned as a manual-release station.
Abort switches will, when operated, interrupt the countdown delay for
the activation of the extinguishing system and prevent the operation of
any alarms and control functions associated with the discharge of the
extinguishing agent. The abort switches must be momentary, dead-
man-type devices that require a constant force to remain engaged and
active. Abort switches will be configured to reset the countdown timer
to the full delay period. Each monitor module with address within the
range of 106 through 110 will be assigned as an abort station.
Each AO output module with address within the range of 111 to 115 will
be assigned as a pre-alarm output point.

Purpose: To suspend normal system operation for functional testing of one
or more SmartOne initiating devices.
The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit will not display and act upon alarm
reports from initiating devices selected for walk testing. There is no need for
the operator to acknowledge, silence, or reset an event initiated during a
walk test. The control unit will only energize outputs programmed for walk-
test activation for a period of one second following the receipt of an alarm
signal from any of the devices selected for walk testing.
Outputs programmable for walk testing include control unit-based NACs
and combination circuits configured as NACs and SLC-based output
modules (such as ASMs and AOs).
The most-current walk-test results for all initiating devices are stored in the
walk-test log. The walk-test mode will automatically end after 30 minutes of
inactivity. It can also be ended by a system reset or by the procedure in
Paragraph 3-2.5.2.5.4.
Any initiating devices not selected for walk testing will report events as

3-2.5.2.6 System Passwords

Password entry is required for all menu operations.
The FENWALNET 6000 System provides two distinct levels of program
protection, as required by UL Standard 864. The user can only access the menu
system by entering a valid password. Typical valid passwords consist of six
digits, but may be up to eight characters in length.
There are two security levels:
• Level One, reserved for the system owner. This is the lowest-level security.
• Level Two, reserved for the system installer. This is medium-level
security.
Passwords can consist of up to eight numeric characters (0 - 9) which allows
access from the display. Alphanumeric characters can only be used with the
FCS program; however, if used, they will lock out any possible entry to the
menus from the display. Refer to the FENWALNET 6000 Programming Guide
for the procedure to create alphanumeric passwords. Table 3-5 describes the
different password levels and their functions.
December 2004 3-66 P/N 06-236529-001

System Operations
Table 3-5. Password Levels and Descriptions
Password Level Description
1 Level 1 passwords permit the owner to isolate devices and circuits, view events and system
configuration, set certain parameters such as the time and date, and run low-level tests
such as a battery-voltage check.
2 Level 2 passwords permit the installer to access to all of the options available to the owner,
plus many more options that include changes to device configuration such as smoke-
detector sensitivity settings and expanded testing capabilities such as alarm-simulation
testing.
If alphanumeric passwords are necessary for a particular application, it is

recommended that the Level One password be numeric and the Level Two
password be alphanumeric so as to allow the user to retrieve system
information (system information lists) and also to prevent a user from changing
any programmed system parameters.
The FENWALNET 6000 System provides protection from unauthorized entry to
the system menus by utilizing two levels of default passwords–Level One and
Level Two. This feature provides two separate passwords which increases the
security of the system. Default passwords are set when the system is shipped
from Fenwal. Table 3-6 lists the default passwords.

initiating devices are processed by the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit.
Each SmartOne alarm-initiating device (such as a smoke detector) transmits an
Alarm On message when it detects a fire signature in excess of its configured
threshold value. An AI Monitor Module monitoring a normally-open contact
detects a contact closure from the contact.
The SmartOne automatic alarm-initiating devices and monitor modules also
transmit Alarm Off messages when the detected fire signature drops below the
configured threshold value and when the contact closure is removed,
respectively. The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit always displays every Alarm
On message, but will not display an Alarm Off message unless the alarm device
is configured for non-latching operation. Each Alarm Off message from a non-
latching initiating device is treated as a system event that requires operator
intervention.
3-2.5.4.4 FENWALNET 6000 Alarm-Off Messages
The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit will only display an Alarm Off message
from an alarm-initiating device such as a smoke detector if the device is
configured for non-latching operation.
The upper line of the LCD display shows the event by the device address, the
change of state, and the device type. The lower line indicates the up-to-40-

3-2.5.4.6 When to Use Non-Latching Initiating Devices
Use non-latching alarm-initiating devices to prevent an inadvertent release of an
extinguishing system as the result of a transitory event that can mimic a fire
signature such as an air-conditioning-system leak or the initial start-up of a
heating system in the fall. The real or mimicked fire signatures that trigger a
countdown to release for an extinguishing system must be present for the entire
countdown-delay period in order to release the extinguishing system when non-
latching alarm-initiating devices are used. The extinguishing-system release will
be aborted if a non-latching device reports an Alarm Off message prior to the
expiration of the countdown timer.
3-2.5.4.7 Alarm Display Limitation
The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit can display a maximum of 64 active
alarm messages by manually scrolling through them. All alarms in excess
of 64 will be processed by the Control Unit even though they are not

3-2.5.4.8 How To Reset the Control Unit After an Alarm Condition
The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit will not reset and resume normal
operations unless it has received Alarm Off messages from all previously
alarmed initiating devices. This means, for example, that:
• All automatic initiating devices such as smoke detectors are measuring
obscuration levels below their programmed alarm thresholds
• All manual stations have been reset and are in non-activated positions
• Sprinkler system water has been shut off and all waterflow switches have
stopped reporting discharge conditions
Press the <RESET> Key to resume normal operations after all alarm-initiating
devices have transmitted Alarm Off messages.
Note: It is possible that one or more trouble and/or supervisory messages will
be reported after the system-reset operation is performed. For example,
a special extinguishing system may need to be recharged or a sprinkler
gate valve may be in an off-normal position. Servicing personnel must
take prompt action to restore the system to normal operating
conditions.

Do not use the following special smoke-detector configurations for releasing applications.
WARNING
Two special alarm states are positive alarm sequence and alarm verification.
3-2.5.5.1 Positive Alarm Sequence
The Positive Alarm Sequence (PAS) is designed to give on-site personnel time to
investigate a fire-alarm report from a smoke detector and to prevent an
evacuation signal from being generated in the event of a spurious fire-signature
detection or an inconsequential fire-alarm report. See Chapter 6 of NFPA 72,
National Fire Alarm Code, 2002 Edition, for further details. Refer to the
FENWALNET 6000 User's Programming Guide to configure a smoke detector
for PAS operation.
The PAS State occurs when the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit receives an
emergency signal from a smoke detector configured for PAS.

smoke detector reports an Alarm Off message at any time prior to the expiration
of the investigation period. A PAS de-activation event is stored in the event log
if an Alarm Off message is reported.
3-2.5.5.3 Alarm Verification
Alarm verification allows a fire-alarm system to delay generating an evacuation
signal when an alarm report is received from a smoke detector. The fire-alarm
system will wait for a second alarm report from the smoke detector that issued
the initial alarm report or another alarm signal from any other alarm-initiating
device before it generates the evacuation signal. The fire-alarm system will
resume normal operations if it does not receive a second alarm report from the
smoke detector or another alarm signal within the user-defined alarm-
verification period. See Chapter 6 of NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code, 2002
Edition for details. Refer to the FENWALNET 6000 User's Programming Guide
to configure a smoke detector for alarm verification.

3-2.5.8 CONCURRENT STATES

It is possible for the FENWALNET 6000 system to be in more than one of the event-
driven, Off-Normal Mode states concurrently. In general, any new event, regardless of
its type, is prioritized for immediate display, and the control unit's application program
runs to activate the outputs, if any, associated with the new event. The FENWALNET
6000's hierarchy for displaying events will determine whether the details associated
with the new event will continue to be displayed after acknowledgment or whether its
display will be suppressed due to the presence of other higher-priority events.
The general hierarchy for the display of events is as follows:
• Alarm
• Pre-Alarm
• Supervisory and Trouble
3-2.5.8.1 Alarm Events
An alarm event is a signal indicating an emergency situation that requires an
immediate response. However, there are varying degrees of alarm signals,
depending on whether the system’s primary objective is property protection and
mission continuity or whether it is occupant notification and building
evacuation.
1. Property Protection/Mission Continuity Alarm Events
A property-protection/mission continuity system is usually installed to
suppress a fire in the area that it is protecting. Waterless fire-suppression
systems typically progress through multiple, sequential alarm states
before the extinguishing system is discharged. The automatic detection
system is either crossed-zoned or arranged in a counting zone to ensure
that a flaming fire is present at the time of extinguishing-system discharge
and for added reliability.
The typical alarm stages of a FENWALNET 6000 System designed for
property protection/mission continuity are summarized in Table 3-7.
Note: There must be at least two detectors in the protected area when either
crossed-zoned or counting-zone automatic detection is used.
December 2004 3-80 P/N 06-236529-001

System Operations
Table 3-7. Progressive Alarm States of a FENWALNET 6000 System

Designed for Property Protection/Mission Continuity
State When Occurs
Pre-Alarm State The pre-alarm state occurs when any automatic detector that is a member of a crossed-zoned or
counting-zone detection system issues an alarm report. The pre-alarm state for a property-
protection/mission-continuity system with waterless fire suppression typically refers to the receipt of
an alarm signal from a spot-type smoke detector or an HSSD. The pre-alarm state described in
Paragraph 3-2.5.7 dealt with essentially a warning signal from an automatic detector that the fire
signature at a specific location had exceeded a user-configurable, low-level threshold value. That pre-
alarm signal did not create an actual alarm.
The pre-alarm state discussed here should not be confused with the pre-alarm state
discussed in Paragraph 3-2.5.7.
The pre-alarm state must be annunciated by distinctive public-mode notification.
Pre-Release State The pre-release state occurs when two automatic detectors (one detector from each of the two
crossed zones or any two detectors in a counting zone) issue an alarm report. The discharge
criterion for the waterless fire-suppression system is attained when the pre-release state occurs.
The pre-release state is also referred to as the countdown state because it typically triggers a
time-delay period that precedes the discharge of the waterless fire-suppression system.
The pre-release state must be annunciated by public-mode notification different from the pre-
alarm state public notification mode.
Release State The release state occurs when the waterless fire-suppression system discharges at the
conclusion of the time-delay period.
The release state can also be triggered without a time delay by a manual-release station. It is
also common practice to trigger a pre-action-sprinkler system concurrently with the discharge
of the waterless suppression system.
The release state must be annunciated by public-mode notification different from both the pre-
alarm-state and pre-release-state public notification modes.
Abort State The abort state occurs when an abort switch is manually activated to interrupt or prevent the
start of the countdown timer whose expiration will trigger the discharge of the waterless fire-
suppression system.
2. Occupant Notification/Building-Evacuation Alarm Events

An occupant-notification/building-evacuation system is usually installed
as required by fire codes to warn the occupants of a building to evacuate
because of a fire. This system enters the alarm state when devices such as
an automatic detector, a manual-alarm station, or a waterflow switch
reports as an alarm event. The FENWALNET 6000 System uses temporal-
coded horns and strobes (or other method of non-voice-messaging, public
notification acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction) to notify the
occupants to evacuate the building.
An occupant-notification/building-evacuation system has two sub-alarm
states that are designed to delay the building-evacuation signals or to
prevent a transient, non-fire signature from activating the building-
evacuation signals. These two sub-alarm states are Positive-Alarm
Sequence and Alarm Verification, described previously.

The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit is now ready for site-specific programming.
3-2.6.4 SITE-SPECIFIC PROGRAMMING
Each FENWALNET 6000 System must be uniquely configured for the specific end-user
application. System configuration involves assigning an address and operating
characteristics to each SmartOne initiating, relay, or control device. It also involves
defining what initiating events or combinations of initiating events will activate the
various control unit-based output circuits and SLC-based relay and control devices. A
site-specific application program can be created in the following two ways.
3-2.6.4.1 System Configuration via the Auto-Setup Routine
The Auto-Setup Routine sets operating parameters for SLC-based devices by
the combination of the device's type and address on the SLC. It assigns fixed
activation sequences for each control unit-based output circuit and each SLC-
based relay and control device by specific-initiating-device report and
combinations-of-initiating-device reports.
See Paragraph 3-2.5.2.4.25 for a complete discussion of system configuration
through the Auto-Setup Routine.
3-2.6.4.2 System Configuration via the FCS Configuration Program
You can also configure the FENWALNET 6000 System via the FCS-6000
Configuration Program for individual site-specific applications. The FCS-6000
Configuration Program allows you to set the operating parameters for the
SmartOne initiating devices and to create activation sequences for each control
unit-based output circuit and each SLC-based relay and control device by
specific-initiating-device report and combinations-of-initiating-device reports.
Refer to the FENWALNET 6000 Programming Guide for an explanation of
system configuration through the FCS-6000 Configuration Program.

APPENDIX A
BATTERY CALCULATIONS
A-1 AC BRANCH CIRCUIT
The FENWALNET 6000 System requires a separate, dedicated connection to an AC branch circuit (120
Vac, 50/60 Hz, 3.2 A or 220/240 Vac, 50/60 Hz, 1.6 A) that must be labeled “Fire Alarm.” This branch
circuit must connect to the line side of the main power connection for the premises. No other
equipment can be powered from the fire-alarm branch circuit.
The branch-circuit wire must run continuously, without any disconnection devices, from the source of
AC power to the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit. Over-current protection for this branch circuit must
comply with Article 760 of the National Electric Code and any other local electrical codes. Use a
minimum wire size of #14 AWG, with 600-volt insulation, for this branch circuit

A-3 EXAMPLE
Consider a FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit that is monitoring a waterless extinguishing system for a
data-processing center. The automatic detection system consists of ten (10) Model PSD-7152
Photoelectric Detectors and ten (10) Model CPD-7052 Ionization Detectors, crossed-zoned in such a
manner that the activation of at least one photoelectric detector and one ionization detector is required
to automatically discharge the waterless extinguishing system. The initiating system also includes eight
Model AI Monitor Modules for manual-release, abort, and sprinkler-supervisory requirements. Four
(4) Model AO Relay Control Modules are being utilized for remote control function such as airflow
shutoff and power shutdown. One AO activates at pre-alarm, two additional AOs activate at pre-release,
and the final AO activates upon extinguishing-system discharge.
Six (6) Model NS-24MC combination horn/strobes (75 cd) are used for occupant notification. The
horns are activated during the pre-alarm condition. The strobes are activated at pre-release, and
remain on until the system is reset.
A Model 486500-01 Control Head is being used to activate the waterless extinguishing system. A pre-
action sprinkler system, controlled by an FM-Approved, Group B solenoid, will be activated
concurrently with the waterless extinguishing system.
The system is using a Model RDCM Remote-Display Module for additional event annunciation. The
standby-battery calculation is shown in Table A-2.

A-2 EXAMPLE NO. 1
Determine the recommended wire size for a daisy-chained, Class-B, Style-4 SLC with 160 devices and
a total wire length of 7,500 feet. The total wire length is the sum of wiring for the positive and negative
SLC legs, and is not the linear distance from the control unit to the most-remote device.
Try #14 AWG wire. The total SLC wiring resistance is:
7,500 ft. x 2.525 ohms / 1,000 ft. = 18.9 ohms.
If Coleman Cable wire is selected, P/N 98141 (from Recommended Wire Listing), the total SLC wiring
capacitance is:
3,750 ft x 20 x 10-12 farads / ft. = 0.075 x 10-6 farads (or, 0.075 µF).
Coleman Cable wire, PN 98141, is acceptable.

Note: Capacitance values correspond to a pair of wires as compared to resistance values that
correspond to a single conductor. The wire-pair length for this SLC is 3,750 feet, and this value
is used for the SLC’s capacitance calculation.
A-3 EXAMPLE NO. 2
Determine the proper wire size for a Class-A, Style-6 SLC with 100 devices and a total wire length 7,000
feet. The total wire length is the sum of wiring for the positive and negative SLC legs for both the
primary and redundant communications circuits, and is not the linear distance from the control unit
to the most remote device.
Try #18 AWG wire first. The total SLC wiring resistance is using #18 AWG is:
7,000 ft. x 6.385 ohms / 1,000 ft. = 44.7 ohms.
The total SLC wiring resistance (44.7 ohms) when using #18 AWG wire exceeds the maximum SLC
wiring resistance of 40.0 ohms. Use larger wire.
Try #16 AWG next. The total SLC wiring resistance using #16 AWG is:
7,000 ft. x 4.016 ohms / 1,000 ft. = 28.1 ohms.
The total SLC wiring resistance (28.1 ohms) when using #16 AWG wire is less than the maximum SLC
wiring resistance of 40 ohms. The SLC wiring resistance using #16 AWG wire is acceptable.
If Coleman Cable wire is selected, P/N 98161 (from Recommended Wire Listing), the total SLC wiring
capacitance is:
3,500 ft x 20 x 10-12 farads / ft. = 0.07 x 10-6 farads (or, 0.07 µF).
Coleman Cable wire, P/N 98161, is acceptable.

APPENDIX A
ROUTINGS FOR POWER-LIMITED AND
NON-POWER-LIMITED WIRING
This appendix provides guidelines for power-limited and non-power-limited wiring requirements. The
following wiring requirements shall be observed:
• Power-limited and non-power-limited wiring must be physically separated within the control-unit
enclosure
• All power-limited wiring must be separated by at least ¼-inch (6.35 mm) from any non-power-
limited wiring
• Power-limited and non-power-limited wiring cannot enter and exit the control-unit enclosure
through the same knockout or conduit.
Figure A-1 shows typical wiring for power-limited and non-power-limited circuits.

Note:
Route wiring as shown when combination power-limited and non-power-limited circuits are used.
Direct all non-power-limited wiring to the rear and then to the left-hand side of the enclosure. Tie wrap this wiring to the
back of the enclosure to maintain a minimum 1/4-inch separation from all power-limited wiring.
Direct all power-limited wiring outward and then to the right-hand side of the enclosure. Also tie wrap this wiring as
necessary to maintain a minimum 1/4-inch separation from all non-power-limited wiring.

CENTRAL-STATION OPERATION
The FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit can be programmed for central-station operation through the
application-specific configuration software. Refer to the FENWALNET 6000 Programmer's Guide to set
up a control unit for central-station operation.
Use a UL Listed and compatible digital alarm communicator/transmitter (DACT) to transmit the alarm,
supervisory, and trouble signals off-premises to the central station. The typical interconnections
between the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit and the DACT are shown in Figure A-1.
Refer to the DACT installation manual to interface the DACT to the FENWALNET 6000 Control Unit
and to connect this equipment to the public switched telephone network for off-premises signal
transmissions.
