2 Detector Operation
This section provides general information on the operation of the detector, status annunciation, and the basic
composition of the system.
www.xtralis.com 5
OSID Product Guide OSID by Xtralis
The bi-color LED on the Imager will flash green once every 10 seconds when the system is working normally
and is free from Troubles or Alarms.
If the bi-color LED is continuously off, the system is not properly powered and a Trouble (Fault) will be
signaled to the fire panel via the IDC interface.
Fire Alarm
The red LED on the Imager unit indicates an Alarm. The Emitter(s) from which the Alarm originates, can be
determined by the sequence of pulses as described in these steps:
1. The red LED pulses a number of times according to the Emitter number from which the Alarm originates:
a. 'n' pulses identifies Emitter Beam 'n' as having a Fire Alarm.
b. a double pulse identifies all Emitter Beams in Alarm.
2. If more Alarms are present: 5 seconds OFF.
If no other alarms are present in the system: 10 seconds OFF.
3. Restart from Step 1.
Emitter beams are numbered sequentially from the left-to-right (from the point of view of the Imager), with '1'
as the left most Emitter beam.
The yellow color of the bi-color LED indicates if the unit is in Training Mode or if there are Trouble conditions.
The identification of the Trouble (Fault) condition and its source (Emitter/Imager) can be determined by the
sequence of pulses of the yellow LED. The identification sequence is described as follows:
1. Source identification: Yellow LED pulses according to whether the Trouble originates from the Emitter
or system:
a. 'n' pulses identifies Emitter Beam 'n' as having a Trouble (Fault) condition.
b. a double pulse identifies the system as having a Trouble condition.
2. 2 seconds OFF.
3. Trouble (Fault) Code: Yellow LED signals the fault type according to the pulsing sequences identified in
Table 2-1.
4. If more Faults are present: 5 seconds OFF.
If no other Faults are present in the system: 10 seconds OFF.
5. Restart from Step 1.

OSID by Xtralis OSID Product Guide
Figure 2-2 is a representation of a system fault triggered when too many Emitters have been detected (two
pulses) and there is no other fault in the system.
Legend
A Detector ID = double pulse C System fault = two pulses
B Two seconds OFF D Ten seconds OFF = no other faults
Figure 2-3 is a representation of Emitter # 2 fault which is triggered when Emitter # 2 is either too close or too
far away from the Imager (three pulses) and there are other faults to follow.

Note: Please take appropriate precautions when working at unsafe heights. The use of elevating
platforms rather than ladders is highly recommended, particularly as both hands are required to be
used during the installation.
Secure the mounting bracket to the mounting surface, using the screw holes as a template and appropriate
fasteners for the surface type. When screwing in the mounting plate, it is recommended that star washers are
used to prevent the mounting brackets slipping.
Figure 4-3: Securing the mounting brackets with screws and star washers
The brackets are provided with one vertical and one horizontal slot to facilitate mounting if the drilled holes are
difficult to position accurately, such as on a rough brick surface. For US territories only, the mounting brackets
are also provided with slots for use with junction boxes. Ensure that the mounting bracket is straight and sits
flush on the surface. If considered necessary by the installer, extra screws can be fitted through the round
holes provided in the mounting plate, to ensure that the plate cannot slip on the mounting surface.

Industrial Mode
The Industrial functionality can be obtained by upgrading the Imager to firmware version V5 and selecting the
Industrial Operation by DIP switch 8.
The Industrial Mode and Sensitivity setting are non-approved settings that can be used in challenging
environments where extreme dusts, steam levels etc. can temporarily cause unwanted alarms. When setting
DIP switch 8 to Industrial Mode the sensitivity of both the A1 (flaming) and A2 (smouldering) alarm channels
are set to a 65% obscuration level.
When the industrial mode is selected with DIP switch 8, it can be set permanently or toggled by the Reset
switch if DIP switch 10 is set to 1. Refer to Section 4.2.7 for further information.
If DIP switch 10 is set to ‘Trigger’ without having DIP switch 8 set to Industrial Mode and/or DIP switch 6 is
set to latching, OSID will generate the fault “Incorrect DIP switch configuration”.
It is preferred that the Industrial Mode is used through the Reset input and only for the time a high level event
is anticipated. The input can be triggered by a key switch, timer, intrusion panel Day/Night setting. The
permanent setting, should only be used if a manual reset of the alarm is mandatory and hence the toggle
function is not available.
The Industrial Mode should only be used with the written approval of the AHJ or auditing agency, Insurance
Company, Fire Brigade and end-user.
A standard beam smoke test, conform to the local installation rules, should be successfully performed for
every Imager that has been set to Industrial Mode.
Note: When selecting the Industrial Mode, the installer must obliterate the NF and CE logos as well as all
other certification logos and numbers from other bodies where the 65% alarm levels are not
certified.

5.3 Maintenance
Although the OSID detector is highly tolerant to dust and dirt, a regular schedule of maintenance should be
implemented to ensure the best possible detector performance. Visual inspection and maintenance testing
similar to the sensitivity test performed during the commissioning process should be performed yearly or in
accordance to local codes and standards or as indicated by the Contamination fault in Table 2-1.
Preventative maintenance simply includes wiping optical surfaces using a damp lint-free cloth. Make sure that
during the cleaning of the detector its alignment remains unchanged. If the alignment was changed, it is
advised that Training Mode is re-initiated. Training Mode may be initiated by powering down the Imager for 10
seconds or more, then powering up to re-initiate system alignment.
The only serviceable part in the OSID detector is the alkaline battery, which can be replaced. Refer to Section
7.3 for instructions on replacing the alkaline battery.
5.4 Troubleshooting
Imagers with firmware version 4.00.03 or greater have an internal onboard event log. Connecting the OSID
Diagnostic Tool, refer to Section 7.6, will allow this event log to be downloaded for further Alarm and Fault
analysis and troubleshooting.
