3.1 Installing and checking the detector line

You will find details on the technical term ↑ 'C-NET' in the chapter 'Glossary'.

Most C-NET devices are installed on a base and can be changed with ease.
The bases of non-stationary C-NET devices and stationary C-NET devices must be
installed and uninstalled when the C-NET detector line is switched off and
disconnected from the power supply.

Prerequisites
● The C-NET detector line is not connected to the control panel and is
disconnected from the power supply when the C-NET devices are being
installed, wired and inserted.
● The C-NET detector line is tested with the line tester FDUL221.
● The control panel is commissioned by the commissioning personnel.

3.1.1 Installing devices with serial number

Before inserting or connecting an C-NET device, stick the serial number on the
layout plan. The adhesive strip with the serial number can be found on the bottom
of the device.

1. Mount and wire the C-NET devices and stick the serial number for each device
on the layout plan.
2. Install the detector dust caps on the optical point detector if necessary.
3. Install the designation plate if necessary.

3.1.2 Installing devices according to the wiring sequence

1. Mount and wire the C-NET devices and document the wiring sequence in the
layout plan.
2. Install the detector dust caps on the optical point detector if necessary.
3. Install the designation plate if necessary.

NOTICE
Simultaneous connection of line tester and C-NET detector line to the control
panel
Damage to line tester or control panel
● Do not connect the line tester and the C-NET detector line to the control panel
at the same time.

Acceptance test
ϖ The C-NET detector line is not connected to the control panel.
1. Connect the line tester FDUL221 to the newly installed C-NET detector line.
2. Test the C-NET detector line for short-circuits, open lines and earth faults.
3. Check the number of the devices on the C-NET detector line using the display
on the line tester.
4. Check the branch-off position of the ↑ stubs and the number of devices at the
stubs.
5. Check the type of all C-NET devices.
6. Remedy any errors you notice and carry out the acceptance test again.

You will find information about the line tester in document 008250. See chapter
'Applicable documents'.

Error when reading in the devices

If there are too many devices on the C-NET detector line for them all to be
displayed on the line tester, a message to this effect is displayed. Proceed as
follows should this happen:
κ Read in the devices from both sides of the ↑ loop. To do this, change over the
↑ detector line cables as follows:
– Connect the feed line of the detector line to connection socket B.
– Connect the return line of the detector line to connection socket A.
 The devices are read in from the other side of the loop. This allows the devices
which previously couldn't be read in to be displayed.

5.2 Definition of terms

↑ Auto-configuration Auto-configuration is performed using a command on the ↑ Person Machine
Interface. In this process, the C-NET devices are read in and a configuration
created.
There are two types of auto-configuration.
● Auto-configuration of an individual C-NET detector line
● Auto-configuration of the ↑ 'Station'
Auto-configuration results in the following:
● One ↑ 'Section' is created for each C-NET detector line.
● One 'Zone' is created for each 'Sensor'-'Channel' ('Automatic detectors' and
'Manual call points').
● One 'Technical zone' is created for each 'Input'-'Channel'.
● For all 'Output' channels and for each C-NET detector line, one 'Control' is
created.
● One 'Control' is created for each alarm sounder.
● ↑ External alarm indicators are not auto-configured.
● Each 'Section' and each 'Zone' contains customer text, such as detector line
no., zone no., and serial number of the device.

Detailed information about the result of auto-configuration can be found in the 'List
of compatibility'.

↑ Pre-configuration The logical elements incl. customer texts are created in Cerberus-Engineering-
Tool prior to commissioning:
● In the 'Detection' task card up to and including 'Zone' level
● In the 'Control' task card up to and including 'Control' level ('Fire control', 'Evac
control', 'Counter control')
In addition, the logical elements can subsequently be assigned as far as possible
for alarming and control.
↑ Logical channels can be pre-configured. This makes sense if customer texts
are to be configured down to this level.
Read in by line The C-NET detector line can be read in by sending a command via the Person
Machine Interface. During this process, the devices are listed without generating
↑ sections and ↑ zones. I.e., no corresponding logical elements are created in the
↑ 'Detection tree' and ↑ 'Control tree'.
Adaptations The following procedures are examples of adaptations:
● Entering customer text for logical elements
● ↑ Changing detector parameter sets
● ↑ Configuring alarm devices
● Configuring 'Controls'
● Configuring the power supply

12.4 Removing or replacing non-stationary devices

The product range includes bases with or without a loop contact.

12.4.1 Base with loop contact

If an C-NET device is removed, the loop contact prevents the C-NET detector line
from being interrupted and thereby prevents a fault message.
The work described in this chapter may be performed when the C-NET detector
line is switched on.

12.4.1.1 Temporarily removing an individual non-stationary device

It may be possible that an C-NET device must be temporarily removed from the
base. Afterwards the same C-NET device must be re-inserted at exactly the same
place in the C-NET.

Document the serial number or address and the position in the C-NET for each
device in order to enable the device to be placed in the same position following its
removal.

1. Remove the C-NET device.

 The control panel detects that the C-NET device is missing and reports a
'Fault'.
2. Perform the necessary activities.
3. Re-insert the C-NET device in the C-NET in the same, previous position.
4. Acknowledge the 'Fault'.
 If this 'Fault' is no longer displayed, the control panel updates the settings of
the re-inserted C-NET device.
 If this 'Fault' is still displayed, and / or the ↑ detector line is not in normal
operation, the detector line has to be restarted.

The work described in this chapter may be performed when the C-NET detector
line is switched on.

● The firmware must be updated individually for each ↑ 'Station'.
Exception: 'Stations networked via C-WEB/LAN. See the chapter 'Updating
several 'Stations' simultaneously [➙ 100]'.
● Data backup
– When the firmware of the main CPU is updated, the configuration data,
event memories and the alarm counter value are deleted. Load the
configuration data and event memories before updating in Cerberus-
Engineering-Tool. You will find more information about the event memory
and the alarm counter in document A6V10210424. See chapter 'Applicable
documents'.
● Converting the configuration data
– Updating the firmware requires the configuration data to be converted if the
new firmware and existing configuration are not compatible with one
another.
● ↑ BDV compatibility
– The BDVs are compatible when the major version and the minor version
are identical. The Bug fix version is not relevant for the compatibility. You
will find Information about BDV names and versions in document

Problem: You are unable to communicate with a ↑ 'Station' in a networked ↑ site.
This may be due to the following causes.

Date and time are not correct

κ Check the date and time of the ↑ 'Station'.
Date and time are not permanently saved in the 'Station'. If this data is not defined
correctly, it is not possible to communicate with the corresponding 'Station' in the
network or via Cerberus-Engineering-Tool.
The date and time must be checked regularly for the following reasons:
● The deviation of the internal clock is up to four minutes per month.
● When data is downloaded using the 'Download site' function, and when a
'Station' is restarted, the internal clock does not continue working.
● If a 'Station' is de-energized, the date and time of the internal clock is lost.

Network cable disconnected too quickly / connection to ↑ 'Station'

not disconnected correctly
If 'Stations' are mounted close to one another, you may be able to move the
network cable from one 'Station' to the next without disconnecting the connection
correctly. If this is done, a connection cannot be immediately re-established on the
next 'Station'.
κ Disconnect the connection between PC and 'Station':
– In Cerberus-Engineering-Tool, select the 'Commissioning' > 'Disconnect'
command.
– Wait at least two minutes before inserting the network cable into the next
'Station'.
