Installation guide

EMS FCX-532-001 Fusion Loop Module is a device used to add functionality to a fire alarm system. It allows for the connection of various fire detection and alarm devices, such as detectors, sounders, call points, and input/output units. The loop module communicates with these devices using a signaling loop, which provides both power and data transmission.

One of the key features of the EMS FCX-532-001 Fusion Loop Module is its ability to monitor the status of connected devices. It can detect various fault conditions, such as head faults, tamper, and low battery, and provide real-time information about these faults through its front display. This allows for quick identification and resolution of any issues, ensuring the reliability and effectiveness of the fire alarm system.

Step 1 Install panel & loop module:
The control panel and loop module require installation into their proposed locations. See the
Fusion loop module installation guide (TSD077) for more information.
Once the control panel and loop module are installed and power is applied, the loop module
will show the following default screen:
Note: As default, the loop module will be set to device address 001. This can be changed if
required. For further details download the Fusion loop module engineers guide (TSD062)
from www.emsgroup.co.uk
Step 2 Power up the devices:
Detectors, sounders, call points and
input/output units have power jumpers as
shown:
Combined sounder detectors are powered by
changing the orientation of switch 1 as
shown:
Switch 1 on = POWER ON

DEV01 = total number of
devices on the system,
between 00 & 31.
AL00 = total number of
devices in alarm condition,
between 00 & 31.
FT00 = total number of
devices in fault condition,
between 00 & 31.
Step 3 Add & install devices:
To log on the devices; the loop module must be in the correct operating menu and then the
device log on button pressed until the red conrmation led lights next to the button (note on
the call point the alarm led is utilised for this feature).
From front display Add New Device screen displays Press Dev Log On followed by
Add Dev 03456 Y? select required address Detector Added.
to exit.
The device now requires installation to its location. (See associated device installation guide for
more information).

The devices will now require adding to the connected control panel, ensuring consistency of
device addresses with the loop module. Note: combined sounder/detectors will hold two
loop addresses. (The rst for it’s sounder and the next for it’s detector).
Step 4 Add devices to control panel:
Step 6 Test devices:
The system can now be tested to ensure correct operation. Available analogue values are
listed below:
Device signal levels can be found in the Signal Level menu:
From front display Device Status select desired device Signal Level
This menu shows information on the two signalling channels used by the loop module. The
signal levels shown range from 100 - 0, with 100 being the highest signal and 0 being the
lowest (where no signal is being seen). All signal levels are shown below:
