1 General
The term “Integral Software” encompasses all software components (programs) for planning, commissioning,
maintenance and diagnostics for control panels from the Integral family.
The Integral Software comprises of several independent individual programmes, all of which work independ-
ently of one another and as marked by a separate version number. In order to make the responsibility for the
user of ensuring that the compatibility of individual programs among one another easier, the programs are not
issued separately, but are tailored to suit each other and put together to form a pack. Every such software pack
is assigned a version number in turn (e.g. Integral Software Version 6.2).
The Integral Software Pack Version 6.2 is shipped on a CD-ROM and contains the following tools:

2 Installation
The Integral Software Pack version 6.2 is available as an installation file on the CD-ROM. In the event that
version 6.1 of the Integral Software Pack has already been installed on the PC, then the upgrade to version 6.2
of the Integral Software Pack can only be carried out using a new installation file on the CD-ROM.
The software must first be installed on the PC before it can be used. The execution of the installation proce-
dure as mentioned is necessary, as the files can not be simply copied into a folder. Moreover, during the instal-
lation process, the program is registered in Windows, and the adapted in accordance with the current configura-
tion.
Interface 1 serial RS232 and 1 USB 1.1 or higher for USB Dongle*
* optional parallel interface for using a parallel interface dongle
Interface
In the event that your computer does not have an RS232 serial interface, we recommend using a
PCMCIA card which will then make this serial interface available.
An existing distribution of version 5.x or older of the Integral Software Pack won’t be unin-
stalled. An update to a current Version can only be done within the Versions (e. g. 5.1.1 to 5.1.3
but not 5.1.1 to 6.1.1). In the event of an Integral control panel already existing, an upgrade to
version 6.2 must be carried out as part of maintenance works or when the configuration is
changed.
For the installation of Integral Software Pack 6.2 administrator rights are required. If such rights
have not been granted, then an error message will be displayed.
In this instance you should contact your system administrator.
To ensure the correct use of the Integral Software, you are only allowed to change the drive let-
ter, under the directory structure is created.
Detector labels,
Shortcuts or
RemoteAccess connection
can be selected.
If you activate „RemoteAccess connection for tools“, only the necessary buttons to use Re-
moteAccess at all Integral Softwaretools will be generated. To use RemoteAccess you must install
the optional Software Pack and use the compatible Dongle.
After the Integral Software Pack has been installed, a folder is created in the “Programs” folder on the start
menu called “Seconet”. From the folder “Integral” contained therein, the individual programs can be executed.
This is only applicable if the default settings are used. If a user-defined label was chosen, then the entry in the
menu is named accordingly.
Using the Winloader or the ServiceAssistant of the Integral Software Pack 6.2 communications to the Integral
system can be established in two different ways. When a connection is established to the B3-Hardware plat-
form, the COM connection, as used in Integral Software versions 5.x and earlier, is used. From the B5 hard-
ware platform onwards, communications take place over a USB connection. In order to be able to use the USB
connection, the Integral USB driver must be installed. The USB driver is copied onto the PC during the instal-
lation of Integral Software 6.2.
The descriptions hereafter refer to the Windows XP user interface, and may differ depending on the actual
configuration of the computer.

New Features in Integral Software Pack 6.2 Integral Software Pack changes
When updating from version 5.1 to version 6.2 of the software, these changes must be carried manu-
ally.
4 Integral Listgenerator
4.1 General
Definition The Integral Listgenerator is used to generate the project-specific programming for a
fire alarm control panel or a extinguishing system control panel. In this process, the
system’s hardware is defined, the addresses and parameters (including Integral loop
technology) are assigned and logical links are created.
Validity area The Integral Listgenerator is used for the following applications:
BMZ Integral
Fire alarm control panel, modular system
BLZ Integral
Combined fire alarm and extinguishing system control panel
SLZ Integral
Control mechanism for controlling extinguishing systems
BMZ Integral C
Fire alarm control panel, compact system (2 loops)
BMZ Integral C1
Fire alarm control panel, compact system (1 loop)
Demo version The decisive difference between the demo version and the full version, in that to use
the full version a dongle must be connected to the USB interface of the PC. Without
the dongle, the export function of the Listgenerator is not available, otherwise the
demo version is fully functional.
Default Programming Default programmings are available, in which the most important presettings for
(Template files) various different standard programmings have already been defined. It is recom-
mended, when creating a project-specific programming to work exclusively from
these default programmings. The files can be found in the project folder, which was
created when the Integral software was first installed.
MacroLibrary A MacroLibrary is available, in which the most frequently used parameter settings for
the various elements are summarised in parameter records. They can be selected
from macro lists and assigned to the elements.
LanguageLibrary A language library is available, in which the available language versions of the stan-
dard texts (= texts on the display of the control panel’s operating panel) are summa-
rised. The desired languages can be selected from a list in the Integral Listgenerator.
Use The USB dongle that is shipped with the full version of the Integral software, must
be connected to a USB port on the PC.
Function The Integral Software is fully functional both with or without using the Dongle.
Without the dongle, however, the user can not export (compile) a customer-specific
configuration that he has generated in Listgenerator in a format, which can be
downloaded into the control panel. In simple terms, the only function of the dongle
is to permit the export function of the Integral Listgenerator.
Compatibility The USB dongle is supported from version 5.0.0 of the Integral Software Pack.
The parallel dongle continues to be supported by the software, but is no longer
shipped.
SecoNET Dongle A separate SecoNET dongle is required for programming a SecoNET network. The
SecoNET dongle is registered to a single person, and contains a unique ID. This
information must be given when ordering the SecoNET software pack.
RemoteAccess-Dongle For using the RemoteAccess software pack, a separate RemoteAccess Dongle is
required.
RemoteControlPanel- For using the RemoteControlPanel software pack, a separate RemoteControlPanel
Dongle Dongle is required.
The fault-free operation of the external devices (printers, scanners, CD-ROM etc.) which oper-
ate from the same parallel interface as the same time as the dongle has not been tested. How-
ever, there are no known problems.
*) 16x32 timers can only be used under specific circumstances. As a rule, only 32 timers can be used per subcontrol unit loop.
4.2 Start Up
The start screen appears after starting the Listgenera-
tor. The menu changes dynamically depending on the
selected view.
Tool bar: The tool bar contains a list of shortcuts. This is where it is possible to switch between both the
views.
Subcontrol Units: All types of subcontrol units, which are supported by the software can be selected.
Connections: It is possible to configure the networking of subcontrol units to form a subcontrol unit loop.
It should be ensured, however, that a suitable networking module must be used for the networking process.
Workspace Physical: In the "Physical" workspace, the control panels and their networking are shown.
Workspace for logical properties: In the “logical properties” workspace, the details about the different
types of elements are shown.
Element type: The “Elementtype” dropdown menu dynamically adjusts itself depending on the configura-
tion and contains all the elements that have been configured e.g. inputs, detector zones, external operating
panels, batteries, outputs, printers, network, delay level, loop, fire brigade control panel, extinguishing zone
etc.
Sorting: Here is decided whether the entries in the workspace should be sorted in ascending or descending
order based on the logical element number.
Filters: The displayed range of logical numbers can be set using filters. e.g. filter from 1 to 10, and only logi-
cal numbers 1 to 10 will be displayed.
Display: In the display section every type of element can be given a user-defined display profile. Moreover, it
is also possible to change the display mode (list or table) of the workspace.
4.3 Definitions
All general definitions are described hereafter, which are
available for the programming of the Integral.
Project name
The name of the project must be entered here.
Programmer
Name of the person who will undertake the
programming and configuration.
Version
Version number is entered here. This must be in
the format X.X.X. This version number is not
automatically updated. For every modification, it
must be remembered that the version number
must be calculated by hand.
Recommendation: Version 0.0.1 for the start of the project. Version 1.0.0 when the programming has
been completed and handed over to the client.
The version number increased with the relevant highest level of priority, if:
Position 1: the structure of the system changes, e.g. a new module is added or a current one removed, a
new version of the software is uploaded, etc.
Position 2: the peripherals change, i.e. a new element is added (hitherto a reserve option) or an available
element is removed.
Position 3: the parameter settings change, e.g. a detector zone changes from automatic (ALZSP) to non-
automatic/manual (DKM), an output uses a break contact instead of a make contact, etc.
Language
The necessary country language is selected here, in which the standard texts should appear on the displays of
the operating panels as well as in printouts from internal and external log printers.
Hardware type
The hardware type determines whether a BMZ, BLZ or SLZ is being used.
Company Name
Here it is possible to choose between the names of the companies in the group of companies.
Notes
In the notes pane, programming modification information for every version must be documented. Only by
doing this is it possible to ensure that changes in the software have be observed.
Separators
SCU number / Element Number: The separator used when being displayed on the control panel can be
configured for between the SCU number and the element number. The
following characters can be configured: - / . : e.g. SCU 1/1 or SCU 1.1
Element number / Indicator: The separator used when being displayed on the control panel can be
configured for between the element number and the indicator. The
following characters can be configured: - / . : e.g. Zone 1/1 or Zone
1.1
SecoNET-Number (0-999)
To change the display of a SCU in a master control unit.
e. g.: SCU-Number 200 Display in a SCU : e. g. 200-3
SecoNET-Number 300 Display in a master control unit: e. g. 300-3
Activation period: The “automatic disablement” function can be configured here. The value can be entered
in the input field for the duration of the time window [from 1.00 secs to 18:00 hours].
Can be activated from: The automatic disablement can be triggered by a group alarm reset from one (or
even several or all) of the systems below.
Operating panel: Applies for all operating panels of a subcontrol unit or of a subcontrol unit
loop
Fire brigade control panel Applies for all fire brigade control panels of a subcontrol unit or of a sub-
control unit loop
Master control unit: Applies for the master control unit of a SecoNET
However, at least one system must be selected, otherwise automatic disablement will not start.
All element types: The setting only refers to the elements displayed in the selection field.
4.3.5 Intervention
Configuration the intervention functions.
Extension periods
Number of repeated extension periods possible
(standard setting: 0)
Operating macro
in which are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol unit or links control units
on a command level. For example it is possible to define that the intervention is only operational in a certain
user level.
Name
Freely selectable text for labelling the zone-
dependent explore time.
Explore time
The desired explore time is entered in this field
(min. 1.00s up to max. 18:00 hrs).
Take up safe position: It can be configured, that in the event of the Master failing that all delay levels
are automatically switched to the state “Night” and thereafter remain in this
state until the connection to the Master is re-established.
Stay controllable: It can be configured that all delay level remain locally controllable i.e. only on
the SCU, in the event that the Master fails. Automatic changeover continues
to occur. If the connection to the Master is re-established, then all delay levels
are automatically synchronised.
4.3.7 Time
The BMZ Integral is able to switch automatically
between standard time and summer time.
Master
Selects from which subcontrol unit within the
BMZ Integral network of control units, the
date and time should be used for all other sub-
control units.
Automatically: By selecting this checkbox the changeover from summer time to standard time and
vice versa is carried out automatically.
Start of summer time: Definition of the point in time at which the changeover to summer time should
occur
End of summer time: Definition of the point in time at which the changeover to winter time should oc-
cur
Message filter
One or more message filters can be selected and logically linked (using OR or AND links) for the memory
of the internal log printer in the select message filter dialogue box. This setting applies for all internal print-
ers of a subcontrol unit (SCU) or a subcontrol unit loop (SCU loop).
Trigger condition
Allows the targeted processing of the data required (e.g. alarm or fault). The trigger criteria is contained in a
Boolean definition. As standard the trigger is for a group alarm or group fault.
Within x hours
The time interval can be set, which is appropriate for
the occurrence of restarts. I.e. if there are 3 system re-
starts within 24 hours, then the system will change
over to emergency operation.
The function “Operation at the fire brigade control panel” should never be deactivated in emergency operation.
The software redundancy configured in Listgenerator must also be activated in ServiceAssistant,
as otherwise a module fault will be displayed at the control unit.
4.4 Assembly
In this chapter, all the settings are described for the hardware components, which are available when configur-
ing the Integral.
Assign numbers…: Defines the properties of the auto numbering of the logical element numbers.
Name: Name of the subcontrol unit(e.g. porter – ground floor)
Number: Determines the number of subcontrol units in a subcontrol unit (1 to 16).
When using a B3-MCU32, the logical number must also be set using hardware using the modules’
address switch.
When a B5-MCU32 is used, the subcontrol unit numbers are set when uploading the control unit
software in WinLoader.
Modules: The available modules for fitting to the subcontrol unit can be selected here.
CII: Connection socket on the B3-MCU32 or B5-MCU32 module for the internal operating panel
1: MCU connection slot, must be fitted with a B3-MCU32 or B5-MCU32 module.
When using a B5-MCU32 is must be ensured that the B5-BUS and a B5-PSU are fitted in the
control unit.
The relay card connection slots 11-13 are only available when fitted with B3-BAF, B5-BAF, B5-
MRI16 or B3-LPI modules.
PSU: PSU connection slot, must be fitted with a B3-PSU5 or B5-PSU module.
11-13: Connection slots for relay modules – they can only be fitted with B3-REL10 or B3-REL16(E) mod-
ules.
Assign numbers…: Defines the properties of the auto numbering of the logical element numbers.
When using a B4-MCU32, the logical number must also be set using hardware using the modules’
address switch.
When a B6-MCU32 is used, the subcontrol unit numbers are set when uploading the control unit
software in WinLoader.
Modules: The available modules for fitting to the subcontrol unit can be selected here.
CII: Connector plug on the basic circuit board of the Integral C for the internal operating panel
B6-X2-BCU: Main module (B4 or B6), fitted for certain, contains the functions of the MCU32, BAF, DXI2
and REL5 modules.
Optional connection slot: Only the B4-USI, B4-DAI or B4-EIO modules can be fitted in this connection
slot.
Assign numbers…: Defines the properties of the auto numbering of the logical element numbers.
When a B6-MCU32 is used, the subcontrol unit numbers are set when uploading the control
unit software in WinLoader.
Modules: The available modules for fitting to the subcontrol unit can be selected here.
CII: Connector plug on the basic circuit board of the Integral C1 for the internal operating panel
B6-X1F-BCU: Main module, fitted for certain, contains the functions of the MCU32, BAF, DXI2 and
REL5 modules and the connection for a Fire Brigade Control Panel.
How the B6 Integral C1 can be updated to an Integral is described in the chapter “Updating to a
new control unit”.
Assign numbers…: Defines the properties of the auto numbering of the logical element numbers.
When using a B4-MCU32, the logical number must also be set using hardware using the mod-
ules’ address switch.
When a B6-MCU32 is used, the subcontrol unit numbers are set when uploading the control
unit software in WinLoader.
Modules: The available modules for fitting to the subcontrol unit can be selected here.
CII: Connector plug on the basic circuit board of the Integral C1 for the internal operating panel
B6-X1-BCU: Main module (B4 or B6), fitted for certain, contains the functions of the MCU32, BAF, and
DXI2 modules.
Log.No.: The logical number of the relevant operating panel is assigned here.
Printer: It is possible to configure whether a log printer is connected to this operating panel, as well as what
logical number it should have.
Module may be absent: If this option is activated, then there is no fault message at the BMZ if the relevant
operating panel has been configured but has not been connected (e.g. for an SCU loop for servicing pur-
poses when individual SCUs are not fitted with an operating panel, ONLY FOR COMMISSIONING
PURPOSES).
Log.No.: The logical number of the relevant operating panel is assigned here.
Printer: It is possible to configure whether a log printer is connected to this operating panel, as well as what
logical number it should have.
Module may be absent: If this option is activated, then there is no fault message at the BMZ if the relevant
operating panel has been configured but has not been connected (e.g. for an SCU loop for servicing pur-
poses when individual SCUs are not fitted with an operating panel, ONLY FOR COMMISSIONING
PURPOSES).
Remote Control panel: If access is required through a Remote Control Panel, then the control check box
must be marked and the logical number of the operating panel entered.
A Remote Control Panel takes a logical address of the type operating panel, thereby reducing the
number of physical operating panels that can be connected by one.
SD/MMC memory card: The B5-MCU or B6-MCU can be optionally fitted with a standard issue memory
card. Memory cards of types “SD card” and “MMC card” are supported.
A plausibility check is carried out, which ensures, that the memory capacity requirements of the configured
functions do not exceed the capacity of the SD card. When the control panel is started up the SD card is
queried. If a lower memory capacity is detected than is required, then a corresponding fault message will fol-
low (e.g. module fault). Moreover, an error message also occurs if the manual write protection on the mem-
ory card is activated.
If there are several SD cards in a single SCU loop, then all the configured functions are available on all the
SD cards. The plausibility check on start-up is carried out for each B5-MCU.
The event memory log of the B5-MCU or B6-MCU thereby is expanded from 200 entries previously to an
extra 65,000 entries.
Additionally the extended event memory still needs to be released (see event memory).
Remote Control panel: If access is required through a remote operating panel (RemoteAccessPanel), then
the control check box must be marked and the logical number of the operating panel entered.
A Remote Control Panel takes a logical address of the type operating panel, thereby reducing the
number of physical operating panels that can be connected by one.
In addition to the possible settings listed below, other settings can be made for each ring in the dialogue menu
“Loop configuration data” (e.g. deactivation of short circuit to earth monitoring, active parallel indicator output
on the module BX-AIM etc.)
Detector zones
A range of numbers for elements of the type "detector zone" are determined for each loop (e.g. 1-10 or 11-
20). The assignment of addresses to the detectors is carried out later during the commissioning process us-
ing LoopAssistant, however, during the addressing stage, the user is only able to select from the range of
numbers set out in this menu point. The formation of detector zones which span across multiple loops as
well as subcontrol units is allowed, i.e. the detectors of a detector zone can both be part of different loops as
well as different subcontrol units. When using modules (BX-AIM, BA-OI2, BA-OI3) it should be taken into
consideration whether the modules should behave later as a detector or as a detector zone (is defined during
commissioning using LoopAssistant). In this instance, this must be taken into consideration when assigning
the range of numbers. It is recommended to choose the ranges of numbers in such a way, that there are
enough free numbers available on this loop for possible subsequent extensions, thereby ensuring the con-
figuration does not require altering using Integral Listgenerator.
Inputs
A range of numbers for elements of the type "input" are determined for each loop (e.g. 151-160). The as-
signment of addresses to the modules is carried out later during the commissioning process using LoopAs-
sistant, however, during the addressing stage, the user is only able to select from the range of numbers set
out in this menu point. It is recommended to choose the ranges of numbers in such a way, that there are
enough free numbers available on this loop for possible subsequent extensions, thereby ensuring the con-
figuration does not require altering using Integral Listgenerator.
Loop detector zones can be configured across multiple loops. This should, however, only be
done in extenuating circumstances (e.g. for manual call points in stairwells).
Line x (x = 1..8): It can be configured, what subelement type is connected to the stub line. The following
types of subelement types can be selected:
None Beam Mini-Boom SecuriStar 521
Monologue Input Series 130/A without
Beam Ardea VdS Interface Prealarm
FM U7698B Input DFG-60 BLK3 SecuriStar 521 without
RAS TITANUS 1000 Valve Monitoring Prealarm
RAS AD1-F Primary Input SLR-E-IS
Beam SPB-E Series 130/A DCD-1E-IS
Beam SPA-E Series 130 Ex-i
Log.No.
The Log.No. indicates the stub number. The logical number may only occur once per element type in the
entire Integral subcontrol unit loop. If the option “not available” is chosen, then the field for entering the
logical device number is automatically blanked out.
Detector zones and inputs can be mixed in any order on a B3-MTI8 module. The use of different subtypes
of an element type per B3-MTI8 is not possible. However, several different subelement types can be used
per module.
For special detectors like beam detectors, flame detectors, smoke aspirating systems among others, there are
particular conditions that prevail, with regard to whether they can be combined on one and the same B3-
MTI8 module!
“DV special detectors” (directly supplied special detectors) and “EV special detectors” (externally supplied
special detectors are differentiated between. The following points must be observed in this regard:
Different DV special detectors can not be operated in a mixed fashion on a single B3-MTI8 module.
In certain circumstances, several B3-MTI8 modules must be used.
EV special detectors can be operated without restrictions in a mixed fashion on a single B3-MTI8
module.
In the planning stage, the following rules must be adhered to within a detector zone
Example: If the operating mode Input, with the subtype “VdS Interface" (parameter set 2) is programmed for
a module for a stub line, then for further stub lines on the same module, no further inputs with sub-
types with other parameter sets, e.g. “Primary Input” (parameter set 3) can be set. If such an input is
also required, then this input must be programmed on another B3-MTI8 module.
Line x (x = 1..8)
It can be configured which subelement type can be connected to the stub line.
The following types of subelement types can be selected:
Detector zones and inputs can be mixed in any order on one and the same B3-MTI8 module.
Trend x (x = 1..2): Activate evaluation for Trend 1 and 2. The settings of the trend evaluation are only
restricted module. For the trend evaluation to happen, the threshold for Trend 1 or Trend 2 must be ex-
ceeded for the entire length of the query by one detector. Only after this time has elapsed is contamination
displayed on the control panel. If the value falls below the threshold value prior to the end of the time listed,
then the counter is reset and the time will start from zero again the next time the threshold value is ex-
ceeded.
Contamination level: Entry for the significance of the contamination as an integer between 1 and 4.
Length of query: Once the value that has been entered has been exceeded, then a contamination message is
indicated in the subcontrol unit. Valid input formats:
from 10 min to 310 min in 10 min intervals
from 30 min to 930 min in 30 min intervals
from 1 h to 31 h in 1 h intervals
Detector zone: Entry of the detector zone number, with a maximum of 8 detector zones per stub line
Detectors: Enter the physical detector number (the address set on the detector in the correct physical se-
quence). An underscore is used as a placeholder for gaps, so that it is possible to assign as many logical
numbers as are required.
The entries for the detector zones and detectors must correspond exactly to the precise hardware
configuration. If this is not the case, a module fault will be shown after the control panel is
started up. If there are alterations to the hardware configuration, the values must be modified and
the control panel reprogrammed.
Trend x (x = 1..2): Activate evaluation for Trend 1 and 2. The settings of the trend evaluation are only
restricted module. For the trend evaluation to happen, the threshold for Trend 1 or Trend 2 must be ex-
ceeded for the entire length of the query by one detector. Only after this time has elapsed is contamination
displayed on the control panel. If the value falls below the threshold value prior to the end of the time listed,
then the counter is reset and the time will start from zero again the next time the threshold value is ex-
ceeded.
Contamination level: Entry for the significance of the contamination as an integer between 1 and 4.
Length of query: Once the value that has been entered has been exceeded, then a contamination message is
indicated in the subcontrol unit. Valid input formats:
from 10 min to 310 min in 10 min intervals
from 30 min to 930 min in 30 min intervals
from 1 h to 31 h in 1 h intervals
Detector zone: Range of the logical numbers for this type of element, which should be reserved on the
corresponding loop.
Outputs Type 1: Range of logical numbers for the control modules of type SBS157 and UAS159, which
should be reserved on the relevant loop.
Line x (x = 1..6): It can be configured, what should be connected to the line. The following settings can be
made using the dropdown list:
Log.No.: Entry for the logical number of the detector zone or of the input.
Evaluate detector range: Address evaluation from 0...9 using different resistance values activated over the
third wire (Z core).
Stub operation (Stitch mode): If the loop circuit is operating in stub operating mode then this checkbox
must be activated.
Detector zones: logical number range for detector zones which are permitted to be programmed on this
loop.
Outputs Type 1: Logical number range for controls on the B2-DOI2 module.
Outputs Type 4: Logical number range for monitored controls on the B2-DOM module.
Maximum no. of LEDs: The maximum number of alarm LEDs is entered. The default value for this input
field is 3. Only integers between 1 and 10 are permissible.
If more than three alarm LEDs have been configured, then a power consumption calculation
should be carried out accordingly.
Line x (x = 1..10): It can be configured whether line x should be available and which logical number it
should have. Lines 1 to 10 can be programmed as inputs or detector zones as required. Monitored outputs
are assigned logical numbers.
Output x (x = 1..8): It can be configured whether output x should be available and what logical number
(integers from 1 to 65534) it should have.
Blink frequency (1, 2): The outputs of the B4-EIO module can be controlled either statically (constantly)
or intermittently. Two blink frequencies can be defined, which can then be subsequently assigned to outputs
1-8 of the B4-EIO.
Keyswitch: Whether a key switch is being used on the EIP indicator panel, and what logical number the
input should have.
Indicators: The parameters for an EIP external indicator panel can be set here.
Inscription: Every indicator output can have a text assigned to it, which can then be exported (for printing
out the push-in strips for the LED indicator panel) through the Datei (File) menu "Paneeltexte expor-
tieren…” (Export panel texts).

The B3-BAF module can be connected to connection slots 2 to 9 of an Integral subcontrol unit, but when relay
modules are being used, a module of type B5-BAF, B5-MRI16, B3-BAF or B3-LPI auf must be fitted to con-
nection slot 9. The B4-BAF module must be fitted in the corresponding connection slot on the B4-main proc-
essor unit. Consequently no further extension module can be used on a B4 subcontrol unit.
FBF parallel: It can be configured, whether a Fire Brigade Control Panel is connected to the module (e.g.
FBF2003 and Wiesmeier FBF0720 v7.0b) and what logical number it should have.
Output 1 (Main detector): It can be configured whether monitored output 1 (OM1) should be available and
what logical number (integers from 1 to 65534) it should have. This output is intended for loads from 16Ω
to 1kΩ and is primarily intending for connecting transmission equipment to the fire brigade. The load ranges
of the output must be set using the jumpers on board the module according to the intended purpose of the
module.
Output 2: It can be configured whether monitored output 2 (OM2) should be available and what logical
number (integers from 1 to 65534) it should have. This output is intended for loads from 16Ω to 1kΩ and is
primarily intending for connecting alarm system, e.g. the main siren. The load ranges of the output must be
set using the jumpers on board the module according to the intended purpose of the module.
MMI – Bus: Per MMI Bus up to 8 external devices can be configured, although the number appearing on
the left edge of the selection field is the same as the physical address of the configured device. This physical
address must later be set on the device using a rotary switch during the installation and commissioning proc-
ess, although the physical order of the devices on the MMI Bus can be selected independent of the configu-
ration. Each device must also be assigned a logical number by using the “Edit...” menu point. With this
number the device is displayed and operated on the display of the fire alarm control panel. The system limits
with regard to the maximum quantity of devices must be observed.
Module may be absent: This option can be individually activated for every MMI Bus device for the B4-
BAF or B3-BAF. Consequently there is no error message generated in the event the relevant MMI Bus de-
vice has been configured but is not connected.
Flash frequency (1, 2): Two flash frequencies which are independent of one another can be programmed
with an impulse as well as a pause in a range from 1 sec to 15.50 minutes. These flash frequencies can then
be assigned during the assignment of logical properties to one of the outputs controlled by this module in
the “Output configuration” dialogue panel.
How a B3-BAF can be updated to a B5-BAF is described in the chapter “Updating tot new
modules”.
The B5-BAF module can be connected to connection slots 2 to 9 of an Integral subcontrol unit, but when relay
modules are being used, a module of type B5-BAF, B5-MRI16, B3-BAF or B3-LPI auf must be fitted to con-
nection slot 9. The B6-BAF module must be fitted in the corresponding connection slot on the B6-main proc-
essor unit. Consequently no further extension module can be used on a B6 subcontrol unit.
FBF parallel: It can be configured, whether a Fire Brigade Control Panel is connected to the module
(FBF2003 and Wiesmeier FBF0720 v7.0b) and what logical number it should have.
Output 1 (Main detector): It can be configured whether monitored output 1 (OM1) should be available
and what logical number (integers from 1 to 65534) it should have. This output is intended for loads from
16Ω to 1kΩ and is primarily intending for connecting transmission equipment to the fire brigade. The load
ranges of the output must be set by making a selection with regard to “Sensitivity of Fault Detection” ac-
cording to the intended purpose of the module.
Output 2: It can be configured whether monitored output 2 (OM2) should be available and what logical
number (integers from 1 to 65534) it should have. This output is intended for loads from 16Ω to 1kΩ and is
primarily intending for connecting alarm system, e.g. the main siren. The load ranges of the output must be
set by making a selection with regard to “Sensitivity of Fault Detection” according to the intended purpose
of the module.
Input 1 / Input 2: Input 1 and Input 2 are used to query galvanically isolated contacts. Input 1 is used as
the reply contact for unit MDL-F.
MMI – Bus: Per MMI Bus up to 8 external devices can be configured, although the number appearing on
the left edge of the selection field is the same as the physical address of the configured device. This physical
address must later be set on the device using a rotary switch during the installation and commissioning
process, although the physical order of the devices on the MMI Bus can be selected independent of the con-
figuration. Each device must also be assigned a logical number by using the “Edit...” menu point. With this
number the device is displayed and operated on the display of the fire alarm control panel. The system limits
with regard to the maximum quantity of devices must be observed.
Module may be absent: This option can be individually activated for every MMI Bus device for the B5-
BAF. Consequently there is no error message generated in the event the relevant MMI Bus device has been
configured but is not connected.
Flash frequency (1, 2): Two flash frequencies which are independent of one another can be programmed
with an impulse as well as a pause in a range from 1 sec to 15.50 minutes. These flash frequencies can then
be assigned during the assignment of logical properties to one of the outputs controlled by this module in
the “Output configuration” dialogue panel.
FBF- parallel: Logical number of the fire brigade control panel, which is connected to the external operat-
ing panel.
It should be ensured that B3-CIE (HighEnd) or B5-MMI-CII (MAP) operating panels can only
be connected to a B5-BAF or B6-BAF.
Master: Definition of the MASTER – B3-UIO module, which when several B3-UIO modules are intercon-
nected, prescribes the flashing rhythm of all LED outputs. e.g. 9/1 means connection slot 9 of the BAF and
MMI Bus device no. 1

UIO module is, otherwise it is not possible for a reset to be carried out. One
input is therefore reserved for the acoustic signal reset.
Indicator test inactive: Indicator test not used.
Indicator test UIO input 2: In order to be able to connect the indicators of the B3-UIO module, the B3-
UIO input 2 must be marked. The indicator test can be then be activated via
this input. All LEDs are then activated.

Loop 0A/0B It is possible to configure whether the interface is active and what purpose it should be used
for. The following settings can be made using the dropdown list:
ZZK-Protocol: Protocol for connecting a SC unit, or a SC unit loop as a slave control unit to a
BMZ Maxima, MCT or other superordinated system, which supports the ZZK
protocol. Single detector operation can be activated as an additional option for
the superordinated system for Integral loop technology. Further project-specific
settings can be made for the ZZK protocol.
Integral Standard Proto- Protocol for connecting a subcontrol unit or subcontrol unit loop to a superordi-
col: nated management system. Further project-specific settings can be made for the
ISP protocol.
SecoNET connection The BMZ Integral is connected to the SecoNET network using the SecoNET
connection. For this purpose, communications modules B3-USI4, B3-LPI and
B4-USI can be used. Additionally, the interface, bit rate and parity must be con-
figured for the connection to the neighbouring nodes in the SecoNET (it should
always be ensured in so doing, that port A of one node is always connection to
port B of the neighbouring node). The SecoNET topology does not require set-
ting. A BMZ Integral can only be connected to the SecoNET network in one
location. The SecoNET connection can consequently therefore only be set once
per BMZ Integral.
SecoNET-Repeater: The SecoNET repeater can be used to add one the BMZ Integral’s communica-
tions modules to the SecoNET network. For this purpose, communications
modules B3-USI4, B3-LPI and B4-USI can be used. The SecoNET repeater does
not connect the BMZ Integral to the SecoNET. On a SecoNET repeater, the
interface, bit rate and parity must be configured for the connection to the
neighbouring nodes in the SecoNET (it should always be ensured in so doing,
that port A of one node is always connection to port B of the neighbouring
node). The SecoNET topology does not require setting.
Loop 1A/1B, Loop 0A: It can be configured whether the PCMCIA modem slot is used for the RemoteAc-
cess function. The following settings can be made using the dropdown list:
Integral RemoteAccess: The complete configuration of the RemoteAccess is contains in the chapter Re-
moteAccess.
The information about the configuration of individual modules is described in
this chapter.
Set…: Using the Set... command, the parameters for the required operating mode can be configured.
Properties: Preset settings can be selected from the dropdown list for the relevant operating mode. Please
contact technical support if you have any questions.
Flash frequency (1, 2): Two flash frequencies which are independent of one another can be programmed
with an impulse as well as a pause in a range from 1 sec to 15.50 minutes. These flash frequencies can then
be assigned during the assignment of logical properties to one of the outputs controlled by this module in
the “Output configuration” dialogue panel.
Service function can not be activated: If this option is activated, then the function of the service pin is
deactivated.
On the B3-LPI the bistable relays on the modules B3-REL10, B3-REL16 and B3-REL16E are fro-
zen in their current state.
In the ServiceAssistant (electronic service pin) all monitored outputs on the B3-BAF, B5-BAF and
B3-OM8 go to IDLE. In this state the bistable relays on the modules B5-MRI16, B3-REL10, B3-
REL16, B3-REL16E, as well as loop modules BA-REL4, BA-OI3 und BA-IOM are frozen in their
current state. For the loop modules, the fail-safe position is adopted, if this has been configured.
From version 5.1 the outputs on the loop modules are frozen independent of the “fail-safe posi-
tion”.
The physical status of the relays will only revert to being the same as the logical state when the ser-
vice pin is pushed back in. This way it is possible to carry out logic tests on fire alarm devices,
whilst the service pin also acts as a way of preventing triggering devices unintentionally during
maintenance work.
Line/Loop 0A/0B: It is possible to configure whether the interface is active and what purpose it should be
used for. The interface types RS232, RS422 or RS485 can be selected. The following settings can be made

lored for this purpose can be selected, with it also being possible to make further
project-specific settings for the serial protocol.
SSI Protocol: Protocol for connection to a superordinated SAT management system. If you
plan to use this, please contact Technical Support beforehand. Further project-
specific settings can be made for the SSI protocol.

ting. A BMZ Integral can only be connected to the SecoNET network in one
location. The SecoNET connection can consequently therefore only be set once
per BMZ Integral.
SecoNET-Repeater: The SecoNET repeater can be used to add one the BMZ Integral’s communica-
tions modules to the SecoNET network. For this purpose, communications
modules B3-USI4, B3-LPI and B4-USI can be used. The SecoNET repeater does
not connect the BMZ Integral to the SecoNET. On a SecoNET repeater, the
interface, bit rate and parity must be configured for the connection to the

and the DXI2 with a loop automatically becomes a B3-DAI2 with two loops. Moreover, a
REL10 is added. Moreover, the B6-MCU32 becomes a B5-MCU32.
B6 Integral C1F
When upgrading a B6 Integral C1F to a B6 Integral C, then the DXI2 with a single loop auto-
matically becomes a DXI2 with two loops.
When upgrading an Integral C1F to an Integral the B6-BAF automatically becomes a B5-BAF,
and the DXI2 with a loop automatically becomes a B3-DAI2 with two loops. The REL5 is
automatically replaced by a REL10 when upgraded. Moreover, the B6-MCU32 becomes a B5-
MCU32.
B6 Integral C
When upgrading an B6 Integral C to an Integral, the B6-BAF automatically becomes a B5-BAF,
and the DXI2 with two loops automatically becomes a B3-DAI2 with two loops. The REL5 is
automatically replaced by a REL10 when upgraded. Moreover, the B6-MCU32 becomes a B5-
MCU32.
It should be noted that an Integral C with a B4-USI or a B4-EIO can not be upgraded to an
Integral. In this instance, the B4-USI or B4-EIO must first be deleted by hand, and after the
upgrade, the functions must be added using the relevant modules in the Integral.
4.5 Protocols
In this chapter, all the protocols are described, which are available when configuring the Integral.
Logical Number: Logical Number of the superordinated system, and is assigned as an element of the type
“Master system”.
Slave control unit number (0..99): Slave control unit number of the subcontrol unit or the subcontrol unit
loop for the connection to a MaxNet (0 = Standard-MaxNet, 1-99 = Enhanced MaxNet).
Bit rate: The Bit rate is set to 9600 bit/s as standard, with a reduction in the bit rate leading to an improve-
ment in the event of connection problems as a result of poor quality cabling. The parity is always even. The
data format is thereby always: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit and 1 stop bit.
Repeat time: The repeat time is the waiting time for acknowledging messages by the superordinated system.
For the connection to a BMZ Maxima or MCT4 a value of 30 ms must be set. A value of 200 ms is recom-
mended for other superordinated systems. If a repeat time that is not long enough is selected and the su-
perordinated system acknowledges the messages too slowly, this can lead to connection faults being indi-
cated. The value must be between 30 and 255 ms. This has a direct effect on the transmission rate.
Interface type: The interface can be operated as either an RS232, RS485 or RS422 on the B3-USI4 module.
In addition hardware jumpering must be carried out on the module. Only RS485 operating mode is possible
on the B3-LPI module.
Redundancy: The connection to the superordinated system can either redundant or non-redundant. Only a
redundant connection is possible on the B3-LPI module.
Logical Number: Logical Number of the superordinated system, and is assigned as an element of the type
“Master system”.
Bit rate: The bit rate can be selected as necessary from a dropdown list (default = 2400 Bit/s).

must be carried out on the module.
4.5.3 SPP
The SPP driver defines the interface for connecting a serial printer, pager or the SMS box. The interface pa-
rameters must be adapted in accordance with the requirements of the interface of the connected device.
Logical Number: Logical Number of the foreign device, and is assigned as an element of the type
“printer”.
Bit rate: The bit rate can be selected as necessary from a dropdown list (default = 9600 Bit/s).

Bit rate: The bit rate can be selected as necessary from a dropdown list (default = 57600 Bit/s).
Redundancy: The connection to the superordinated system can be either redundant (only for BMZ Inte-
gral) or non-redundant.
Parity The parity can be set, as required, to “even” or “odd”.
Interface type: The interface can be operated as either an RS232, RS485 or RS422 on the B3-USI4 module,
but hardware jumpering must also be undertaken on the module. Only RS485 operating mode is possible on
the B3-LPI module.
Management System LogNo: Defines the management system, which should be indicated when there is a
fault on the control unit’s display.
Master control unit LogNo: Defines the master control unit, which should be indicated when there is a
fault on the control unit’s display.
Connection type: Defines the connection type. It is possible to choose between a direct connection (using
cable-based connections) and a modem connection. Ask support about tested modems.
Bit rate: The bit rate can be selected as necessary from a dropdown list (default = 57600 Bit/s).
Connection type: The interface can be operated as either an RS232, RS485 or RS422 on the B3-USI4 mod-
ule. In addition hardware jumpering must be carried out on the module. Only RS485 operating mode is pos-
sible on the B3-LPI module.

Detector zone macro: The selection of a detector zone macro, is compulsory to determine the functional
characteristic of the relevant detector zone. The type that can be found in the detector zone must be de-
fined.
operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
For example it is possible to define that the detector zone is only operational in a certain user level.
Delay level: The function of detector zone can be different depending on whether there is day time or night
time operation. (e.g. daytime => delay / night => without delay).
If no delay level is selected, than the detector zone is basically in night time operation. To be able to select a
delay level, this must be defined beforehand.
2 Detector Dependency: At least two detectors in the relevant detector zone must enter alarm state to
fulfil this criteria.
operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level. For example it is possible to define that the input is only op-
erational at the operating panel in a certain user level.
Invisible: If this function is activated, then the state of the input in question, is neither indicated on the
display or by the log printer on the BMZ Integral, the input therefore being “invisible” to the outside world.
This function is used preferably, when the input in question is linked with external alarms or external faults.
Invert input: It is accepted as standard that inputs are activated by make contacts (normally open). It is
however possible, by inverting the input in question, to activate it using a break contact (normally closed).
Subtype: Every output can be assigned a so-called „subtype“ (e.g. main detector, main siren, smoke ventila-
tion,...). For messages which affect the output in question, this subtype is given as additional information on
the display and/or the log printer of the BMZ Integral.
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level. For example it is possible to define that the output is only
operational in a certain user level.
Further settings:
Critical: If this option is activated then the print out of the system configuration will
contain the text “critical” for the relevant output.
Can be controlled again: Is used to automatically reactive the output in question once that output has
been reset from the operating panel or the fire brigade control panel e.g. in
the event of an alarm occurring again.
Key Switch dependent Outputs which have been assigned this function, are automatically disabled, if
(Alarm): the user at the operating panel changes to another user level than level 1 (key
switch position => blocked) The output in question can then neither be
triggered, nor operated by the user. The output is then automatically disabled
if there is no alarm present in the system.
Key Switch dependent (Con- Outputs which have been assigned this function, are automatically disabled, if
trol criteria): the user at the operating panel changes to another user level than level 1 (key
switch position => blocked) The output in question can then neither be
triggered, nor operated by the user. The output is then disabled automatically,
if the control criterion for this output is not active.
Reply signal: Must be activated, if the relevant controller for controlling a transmission
system with an optional reply line is used and this reply wire is connected to
the reply input of the relevant controller. (e.g. MDL-F)
Timeout: Information about how long is takes for the reply, if this period is exceeded,
then a fault is generated (maximum 5 minutes).
Active when disabled: This function is used, for example for holding magnet outputs, and has the
effect that the output in question is automatically triggered, if it was disabled
beforehand.
Break Contact: If this function is activated, then the output acts as break contact (normally
closed).
Active in fail-safe position: If this function is activated, then the output is always controlled, if:
The control unit is powerless (mains and battery supply)
A warm start is carried out (system reset)
The control unit is changed over to the B side as a result of a
single error in the system
If the output is on a loop (loop technology) and the loop loses
power.
Triggering in emergency op- If the System goes into emergency operation the output will be triggerd.
eration:
no OC-recognition on acti- This function configures the monitored outputs of the system Integral C/C1
vation (B6-BAF). If this function is activated, then the wire break detection is dis-
abled in the cause of the initiation of a primary output.
Output configuration: The output configuration defines the standard output configuration for the output
(e.g. static or flashing). It is, for example, possible for an output to be defined, that flashes as standard when in
controlled state. The output configuration can still, however, be individually adapted for every control criteria,
if required. See Overwriting out configuration.
Control criterion: If several control criteria have been defined, then priorities are used to define the order
(4 = lowest priority, 1 = highest priority).
Boolean definition: The Boolean definition, which is selected, is used as a control criteria. This means that
is the Boolean definition is true, then the output is controlled.
Overwriting output configuration If this function is activated, then there is the opportunity to adapt the
output time limit, or to select the flashing frequency.
external: The external output time limit only works with loop module outputs. The
time is generated directly by the loop module controller and be chosen in the
range between 0.1 and 12 seconds. There are 2 possibilities:
Logical: The device is controlled for a set amount of time (e.g. 1.1
secs) if control criteria occur. The device is then automatically reset,
even if the control criteria are still present. The relevant device no
longer appears on the list of devices being controlled that appears on
the BMZ Integral Control panel immediately after the automatic re-
set process.
Physical: The device is controlled for a set amount of time (e.g. 2
mins) if control criteria occur. The device is then automatically reset,
even if the control criteria are still present. Following the automatic
reset process the relevant device however remains in the list of de-
vices being controlled that appear on the BMZ Integral control panel
until the control criteria which caused the alarm to be triggered has
been reset again (e.g. by means of an alarm reset).
Output time limit:
Constant: The output is constantly controlled.
Flashing: The output is intermittently controlled with the previously set flash frequency
1 or flash frequency 2.
Type of Sound: This parameter is only used by loop sirens (BA-SOL). There are different types of tone that
can be selected e.g. DIN tone.
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level. For example it is possible to define that the detector zone is
only operational in a certain user level.
Alarm on:
Linked result: A previously defined Boolean definition can be selected. If this Boolean
definition is true, then an alarm is triggered at the fire alarm control panel.
Sum criterion: A previously defined sum criterion can be selected. If this sum criterion is
true, then an alarm is triggered at the fire alarm control panel.
States of the input: Inputs can be selected and their state defined. If one of the inputs enters the
defined state, then an alarm is triggered at the BMZ.
Fault on:
Linked result: A previously defined Boolean definition can be selected. If this Boolean
definition is true, then a fault is triggered at the fire alarm control panel.
Sum criterion: A previously defined sum criterion can be selected. If this sum criterion is
true, then a fault is triggered at the fire alarm control panel.
States of the input: Inputs can be selected and their state defined. If one of the inputs enters the
defined state, then an alarm is triggered at the BMZ.
Subtype: For the log printer concerned, three subtypes can be assigned:
Remote printer
General
Operating panel printer
Disablement on Cold Start: When this function is activated, the printer remains disable for as long after a
new start, until the user turns it on again manually.
Zone filters: Zone filters all specific subzones of elements available in a subcontrol unit or a group of con-
trol units, e.g. detector zones, outputs etc. to be drawn together. A zone filter can then for example be used
for restricting indicators on operating panels and printers, as well as for defining of sum criteria etc.
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
Message filters: Message filters are used to permit or suppress the printing out of specific messages or
commands on operating panel printers or external printers. Every printer of a subcontrol unit or a group of
control units can be assigned up to 3 different message filters.
Automatic change of operating level: When the operating level of more than 1, once an set period of
time (1 min – 12 hours) has expired, the operating level automatically switches to 1.
Appearance: The appearance type of display indications can be selected in accordance with the Austrian or
German standard. The available section:
Austria
Germany
Germany (VDS)
Transmission equipment: Selection of the output (logical number) which is assigned to the transmission
equipment at the operating panel. The transmission equipment can be disabled via the button on the operat-
ing panel.
Alarm system device: Selection of the output (logical number) which is assigned to the alarm systems field
at the operating panel. The output should be the logical number of the main siren. The main siren can be
disabled via the button on the operating panel.
Alarm on Revision Alarm: If this function is activated, then revision alarms are also indicated by the group
alarm LED on the operating panel. The revision must be started from the operating panel. If the function is
started using ServiceAssistant, then the LED in the operating panel does not have a function.
Zone filters: Zone filters all specific subzones of elements available in a subcontrol unit or a group of con-
trol units, e.g. detector zones, outputs etc. to be drawn together. A zone filter can then for example be used
for restricting indicators on operating panels and printers, as well as for defining of sum criteria etc.
Authorisation: The authorisation structure can be defined for the relevant operating panel.
Authorisation codes: The every user level, the numerical code (maximum eight digits) can be defined
which must be entered to swap to this level at the operating panel.
Operable in user level: Using “edit” for every selected menu item it is possible to configure in which user
level the relevant menu point should be available.
Authorisation macro:
As standard: The relevant operating panel serves exclusively as an indicating operating
panel in user level 1. This means that no commands can be sent to detector
zones or other element types from the control unit. In one of the higher user
levels (levels 2-8), then commands can be sent to detector zones or to other
element types.
Standard, intervention in The functions are identical with those of the “Standard” setting, but it is,
level 1: however, also possible in user level 1 to initialise an Intervention.
Change of authorisation without switch: If this function is not activated, then it is not possible to change
the authorisation level without a keyswitch.
Battery exists: Must always be activated if rechargeable batteries are used to maintain the mains power sup-
ply in the event of a power failure.
Battery test:
automatic check: Must always be activated, in order to check the batteries automatically
at the preset interval (standard setting: 15 min)
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
Fault message:
immediately: The fault message of the power failure is indicated immediately at the control
unit.
never: The fault message of the power failure is never indicated at the control unit.
delayed: The fault message of the power failure is indicated after a defined period of time
at the control unit.
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
In order to define the day => night changeover times of a specific delay level, the days, on which an automatic
changeover should occur, should be selected. The changeover time must be entered as per the above example.
The BMZ Integral also supports the automatic changeover between night and day, but in this instance country-
specific regulations must always be observed.
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
Changeover time:
Day Night (absent): The switchover from day to night operation happens automatically.
Night day (present): The switchover from night to day operation happens automatically.
4.6.10 Configuration settings for the Fire Brigade Control Panel element
It should be noted, that a maximum of 8 elements of type Fire Brigade Control Panel are supported per sub-
control unit.
This is because the Fire brigade display panels (FATs) and the fire brigade control panels (FBFs) share the Fire
Brigade Control Panel element type in Listgenerator. Either 8 FATs, 8 FBFs or 7 FATs and 1 FBF etc. can be
connected to the individual subcontrol unit.
This means that the FATs and FBFs share the logical number range 1-65534.
Level 1-8: Level 7 is normally always activated for a Fire Brigade Control Panel. If level 7 is not assigned to
a Fire Brigade Control Panel, then the test transmission equipment key does not work.

For example if „1st line customer text“ is selected, then in the first line of the FBF the text is shown, that is
also shown in the first line in the operating panel. It is therefore possible to adapt the FBF’s indications.
By selecting „1st line FBF Text“ or „2nd line FBF Text“ it is possible to create a display texts for the FBF,
which do not appear on the control unit’s operating panel. The texts for the 1st and 2nd line of the FBF text
are also generated in Integral Text Tool (Special text line 1 and special text line 2).
2. line: The same setting options apply as for the first line.
Zone filters: Zone filters all specific subzones of elements available in a subcontrol unit or a group of con-
trol units, e.g. detector zones, outputs etc. to be drawn together. A zone filter can then for example be used
for restricting indicators on operating panels and printers, as well as for defining of sum criteria etc.
Transmission equipment: The logical number of the transmission equipment is to be set that is to be dis-
abled, when the transmission equipment reset button is pressed on the FAT.
Use alarm memory: By selecting this, the alarm memory is activated. The number (between 0 and 32) of
the alarm memory entries must then be determined.
After triggering the transmission equipment, all old messages in the memory are deleted and only
the current messages are shown!

For example if „1st line customer text“ is selected, then in the first line of the
FBF the text is shown, that is also shown in the first line in the operating
panel. It is therefore possible to adapt the FBF’s indications.
By selecting „1st line FBF Text“ or „2nd line FBF Text“ it is possible to cre-
ate a display texts for the FBF, which do not appear on the control unit’s
operating panel. The texts for the 1st and 2nd line of the FBF text are also
generated in Integral Text Tool (Special text line 1 and special text line 2).
2. line: The same setting options apply as for the first line.
Zone filters: Zone filters all specific subzones of elements available in a subcontrol unit or a group of con-
trol units, e.g. detector zones, outputs etc. to be drawn together. A zone filter can then for example be used
for restricting indicators on operating panels and printers, as well as for defining of sum criteria etc.
Activation criterion 1, 2:
none: The indicator is not activated.
Link: The indicator is activated if the output criteria of the selected Boolean defini-
tion is true.
Group criteria: The indicator is activated, if the selected group criteria is true.
Element state: The indicator is activated if the output criteria of the previously selected
Boolean definition is true.
Triggering:
Alarm criteria: It can be entered whether when activating the indicator whether an acoustic
alarm should also be activated.
Fault criteria: It can be entered whether when activating the indicator whether an acoustic
fault should also be activated.
Output configuration: Here it is possible to set whether each indicator and each control criterion
should be activated constantly or intermittently (flashing). The frequency at
which the indicator flashes is generally set along with the UIO card’s parame-
ters. Control criterion 1 has a higher priority than control criteria 2. This
means that the output behaviour of control criterion 2 is overwritten by that
of control criterion 2.
It should be noted that when an acoustic alarm signal or acoustic fault signal is selected that the
first two outputs on the device are used as indicators and consequently are always assigned logi-
cal numbers x56 (for acoustic alarm signals) and x57 (for acoustic fault alarms).
Ground fault monitoring off: If a cross is entered, then the ground fault monitoring for the loop is deacti-
vated.
AIM Option Operation(Alarm LED detector active): If conventional Hochiki detectors are used, then
the LED of the detector can be activated in the event of an alarm. This function is then valid for all AIM
modules which are used on the same loop.
Delayed device fault: An error message only occurs after the device has been queried unsuccessfully 10
times (standard query = 2).
Evaluate Signature alarm: The signature alarm is a special method for quickly testing an automatic detec-
tor. This function is available from MTD 533 detectors.
During the first, short time that the testing gas is blown into the detector, the detector immediately detects that the test is taking
place and shows this with a flashing LED. If a second blast of testing gas is then sprayed in, the detector momentarily activates
the alarm bit.
Undervoltage detection active: Activated the MTD 533’s undervoltage bit, if the ring voltage is below a
defined value.
Evaluate ageing bit: Activates the evaluation of the ageing bit in the MTD 533.
Quick start-up: The detector recognition is then optimized on startup. For previous generations of detec-
tors it is recommended, if there are problems during startup, to deactivate the option.
Alarm LEDs simultaneously active: It is possible to select between standard and Chinese standard. A
maximum of 2 alarm LEDs can be active per loop (detector LED and 1 external UPI is the equivalent to 1
LED).
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
Every loop must always be assigned the loop operating macro.
Delay input fault: A delay time for fault messages of monitored inputs which are on a loop can be pro-
grammed (e.g. inputs for sprinkler systems)
Operating macro: Operating macros are used, in order to restrict the operation of elements of a subcontrol
unit or links control units on a command level.
Linked result: A previously defined Boolean definition can be selected. If this Boolean definition is true,
then the service phone call is triggered.
Message filters: Message filters are used to permit or suppress the printing out of specific messages or
commands on operating panel printers or external printers. Every printer of a subcontrol unit or a group of
control units can be assigned up to 3 different message filters.
Authorisation level: This determines from which user level RemoteAccess is allowed to be deployed from.
Authorisation macro:
As standard: RemoteAccess serves exclusively as an indicating operating panel in user
level 1. This means that no commands can be sent to detector zones or other
element types from the control unit. In one of the higher user levels (levels
2-8), then commands can be sent to detector zones or to other element
types.
As standard: The functions are identical with those of the “Standard” setting, but it is,
intervention in level 1: however, also possible in user level 1 to initialise an Intervention.
Non-operable, intervention The functions are identical with those in the “non-operable” setting, but it is,
possible: however, possible to initialise an Intervention.

The time values that can be set differ from one application to another. Only certain time steps can be select for
the individual time ranges. When entering times outside the defined time ranges, a rounding automatically oc-
curs, and a suitable fault message in the event that the maximum permissible time is exceeded.
Furthermore, it should be noted that a maximum 128 input criteria can be defined per Boolean definition.
The three buttons that are found in the bottom right of the window are used to import
and export Boolean definitions and to open and edit macro libraries.
After clicking on the „New“ button, the input window appears to create a Boolean definition. This is split
into 3 areas, for the input criteria, definition area and output criteria.
Tool bar: The tool bar can undo or redo specific processes. Furthermore, additional columns and be
added or deleted.
Toolbar: In the toolbar, as well as the connection, there are different logical gates for linking the input crite-
rion to the output criterion.
Name: In the name field, the output criterion must be assigned a name, with which is can be selected from
the table for Boolean definitions. The name ideally describes the main function of the link.
Input criterion: The input criteria (max. 128) are defined here. Input criteria are queries of specific events in
the BMZ. By double clicking on an empty field, a new input criterion can be created, or by double clicking
on an existing input criteria it can be edited. By marking and deleting, it is possible to remove an input crite-
rion.
Columns: Columns are used (in the checked field) for the placing of the logic gates. They can be extended
as required (Menu "Column, Add") or removed again (Menu "Column, Delete"). The logical gates are used to link
the input criterion, whereby in the most simple case an input criterion is assigned directly to an output crite-
rion without recourse to logic gates. By selecting the logic gate in the toolbar (or the "Tools" menu) they can be
placed in the columns using drag and drop methods. With the help of the „Connect“ tool, the input criteria,
logic gates and the output criteria must be linked with one another using lines.
Output criteria: The Boolean definition is assigned an output criterion. This Boolean definition delivers a
result (true or false) and can then be assigned to one or more outputs as so-called control criteria.
It must be ensured that all input criteria, the output criterion as well as inputs and outputs of
logic gate have a connection, as otherwise the Boolean definition is not complete.
Type: Constant
Type: Element:
Parameter:
Element type: Selection of the element type to be queried (detector zone, input, ... etc.)
Element no.: Logical number of the element to be queried
e.g.: Input = 1,4,7,10-15 => the query refers to the detector zones 1,4,7 and 10-15
simultaneously
Significance: Significance that should be queried (adopt standard setting)
Individual element: Possibility to query individual detectors (individual detector address) within the detector
zones
States: Definition of the element states to be queried
e.g. a detector zone is queried for alarms
Every element can be assigned element states. States are used e.g. as input criterion for Boolean definitions. The
list of states and their substates is different from one element type to the next.
State: Definition of the element states to be queried e.g. a detector zone is queried for alarms
Substate: For example an input is monitors for a fault state, and queries for a short circuit as a substate.
Parameter: A sum criterion can be chosen from the list as an input criteria for a Boolean definition.
Parameter: With the help of the „Date / time“ input criterion, the system time of the BMZ Integral can be
queried and outputs triggered depending on date or time.
Type: Command
Parameter: With the help of querying of commands, it is possible to query keyboard operations.
Parameter: Results from existing Boolean definitions can be used as the input criterion for new Boolean
definitions.
Parameter: Sent events from the master control unit can be used as input criterion for a Boolean definition.
A maximum of 64 events can be received from the master control unit.
For some gates the number of inputs can be extended by marking and dragging the bottom right edge or addi-
tional information can be entered by double click on the gate (e.g. pulse duration).
4.7.6 Connections
The tool is used to connect input criteria, logical gates and the output criterion with
one another using a line (conduits).
A conduit is created by single clicking on the start and end position with the connec-
tion tool (see example 1). The conduit is automatically snapped to the grid.
Example 1:
The automatic alignment of every conduit can also be changed in a user-defined manner. The conduit must
first by selected by means of a single click with the selection tool and then dragged to the desired position using
drag and drop (see example 2).

The output of the „Greater than“ gate has the value 1, when more than the defined
quantity of input variables display the value 1.
Example
Detector zone 1 and 2 are configured to alarm state. In this instance the output criterion is “True” if in Zone 1
or Zone 2 at least two detectors are in alarm state.
4.7.14 RS-Flipflop
The RS-Flipflop is a cache for logical information. The output has the value 1 when the
S input has the value 1. The output keeps the value 1 regardless of the state of the S
input. Only when the value 1 is also present as the R input is the RS-Flipflop reset and
the output returns to 0 (the R input is dominant over the S input).
4.7.15 D-Flipflop
The D-Flipflop consists of a data input (D1) and a trigger input (C1). The output takes
the value of the D input as a result of a low-high (change from 0 to 1) at the C input.
The output remains in this state until the next low-high at the C input. The C input is
known as the clock input.
4.7.16 Counter
The counter makes it possible to count up as well as down. If the + input (counter
input forwards) has the value 1, then the counter is increased by 1. If the - input
(counter input backwards) has the value 1, then the counter is decreased by 1.
If the value 1 occurs at the reset input (R input) then the counter is reset to 0. If the
value 1 occurs at the set input (S input) then the counter is reset to 255. Setting has
priority over counting and resetting has priority over setting.
By double clicking on the counter symbol a start value „from x“ and an end value „to
x“ can be set [x = 0…255]. The output of the counter takes the value 1 if the counter
has reached or exceeded the start value that has been set. The output retains the value 1
until it reaches the end value that has been set. If he exceeds the end value, then the
output once again assumes the value 0.
4.7.17 Impulse
The output has the value 1 when the input has the value 1. The output holds this value
for a programmable time (= the pulse duration) regardless of the state of the input.
By double clicking on the gate symbol the pulse duration [0.10 sec to 31.00 h] can be
entered in the entry field. In the event of the input changing from 0 to 1, then the pulse
duration is restarted (retriggered).
4.7.18 Low-High
In the event that the value increases (changes from 0 to 1) at the input of the gate, then
the output changes to value 1 after a programmable delay period.
In the event of the value decreasing (changing from 1 to 0) at the gate’s input, the out-
put immediately changes from 1 to 0.
By double clicking on the gate the delay time [0.10 sec to 31.00 h] can be entered in the
entry field.
4.7.19 High-Low
In the event that the value increases (changes from 0 to 1) at the input of the gate, then
the output changes to value 1 immediately.
In the event of the value decreasing (changing from 1 to 0) at the gate’s input, the out-
put changes from 1 to 0 after a programmable delay period.
By double clicking on the gate the delay time [0.10 sec to 31.00 h] can be entered in the
entry field.
By double clicking on the gate, the impulse duration [0.10 sec to 31.00 h] can be en-
tered in the entry field.
New: Definition of a new detector zone macro. An empty detector zone macro is opened.
Edit: Edit the detector zone macro that is marked in the list.
Edit Copy: Create a copy of the detector zone macro marked in the list and edit it. The detector zone
macro, from which the copy was created, is not changed in the process.
Delete: Delete the selected detector zone macro.
Reference: Displays the references to which detector zone macro marked in the list exists. After clicking the
button, the detector zone, to which the relevant detector zone macros have been assigned, are listed.
The three buttons that are found in the bottom right of the window are used to import
and export detector zone macros and to open and edit macro libraries.
Name: The detector zone macro must have had a name assigned to it (max. 30 characters). The macro can
then be found using this name in the detector zone macro table.
Subtype: The subtype is indicated on the operating panel display of the fire alarm control panel and allows
selective treatment, if e.g. an aggregate criterion exists.
Revision holding time: Time until a revision alarm is automatically reset (Default = 10 sec).
Silent alarm: A “silent alarm” is not indicated on the operating panel of the fire alarm control panel (neither
visually nor acoustically) and is intended for special purposes. A “silent alarm” is automatically reset after a
configurable time (Default = 10 sec). When a configured threshold value (e.g. max. 3 alarms in 10 min) is
exceeded, then the next alarm in this detector zone is indicated and treated like a “normal” alarm.
Delay (blocked for silent alarm): This dialogue area organises the forwarding of the „hard alarm“ of a
detector zone and is subdivided into the state DAY (= delay level active) and NIGHT (= delay level not ac-
tive or not assigned). The relevant delay level is assigned to the detector group in the „Detector Zone Con-
figuration Data“ dialogue. The following delays in forwarding the „hard alarm“ can be configured:
immediately: The „hard alarm“ is forwarded immediately with the „normal“ alarm message.
Always blocked: The „hard alarm“ is blocked. There is only a „normal“ alarm message. When configur-
ing the “silent alarm” the “hard alarm” is always blocked.
Intervention: The „hard alarm“ follows in accordance with the settings of the intervention mode.
Delay: The „hard alarm“ follows after the settable delay period (0.10 secs to 31.00 hours).
Significance: The configured delay can be limited up to a set significance (default = always valid)
Module-specific: Additional settings can be made using the button, which refer to specific line technolo-
gies.
Alarm cache: For example, prewait time 31 secs, wait time 31 secs, which means: In the event of an alarm it
is saved in the control panel. After 31 seconds the alarm is automatically reset and a new counter (waiting time)
started. If there is another alarm during this time, then it is forwarded. Once the period has expired, and there
has been no alarm, this is detected in the memory.
Deceptive alarm detection (only on MTI, DCI, DTI): Detector contamination is only generated if the
threshold value is exceeding during the evaluation period.
(Only on DAI) Re-evaluate alarm after: This is the period of time after an alarm reset in which a further
alarm criterion is not evaluated.
Permissible commands (DAI, LEE23/24, DTI): Permissible commands for operating a single detector
in a detector zone.
Contamination:
The three buttons that are found in the bottom right of the window are used to import
and export operating macros and to open and edit macro libraries.
Name: The operating macro must have had a name assigned to it (max. 30 characters). The macro can then
be found using this name in the operating macro table.
Command: The relevant commands can be selected in the command input field, which should be used
with/without restrictions in the various user levels.
Unrestricted application: If this criteria is assigned to a command, the command can be used without
restriction in every user level.
Restricted application: If this criteria is assigned to a command, the command can be used with restric-
tions in every user level for which the command has been released. Additionally a dependency can be de-
fined. Only if the dependency is fulfilled/not fulfilled, can the command be executed in the defined user
levels.
Dependency fulfilled: States in which operating level the command is permissible. This parameter is
only used, where there is no control criteria and the result of the link, or the
sum criteria is “true”. In there is no dependency, then the result is always
“true”.
Dependency not fulfilled: States in which operating level the command is permissible. This parameter is
only used, where there is no control criteria and the result of the link, or the
sum criteria is “not true”.
Dependency: In the “dependency” field, the criterion for dependency is set out. Only if the
link result is „True“ or „not true“, can an operation be undertaken depending
on the user level and what is released.
If an activation criterion States in which operating level the command is permissible. This parameter is
exists: only used if the activation criteria is present and an operation is possible. This
criteria is only applicable for outputs.
Example: In the previously shown picture of the Loop operating macro, it is possible to reset the loop in
user levels 2,3 and 8, because there is no fault on the loop present. If the loop has a fault, then it is only
possible to reset the loop in user level 8.
Name: The authorisation macro must have had a name assigned to it (max. 30 characters). The macro can
then be found using this name in the authorisation macro table.
Element type: In the element type list, those elements for which authorisation has been granted is marked
with a .
Functional type: In the functional type list, those elements for which authorisation has been granted is
marked with a .
Visibility: If privileges have been set then the “Visible in” entry is marked with a .
Operability: In the list of all available commands, those for which authorisation has been granted is marked
with a .
User Level: The selected user levels are marked with a .
The navigation within the authorisation macro window is explained in greater detail below:
By single clicking on the element type, all the functions which can be carried out using this element will be dis-
played. Only once a specific function type has been single clicked upon will the commands that can be used for
the selected function type appear in the “operability” pane, and the entry “visible in” will then appear in the
“visibility” pane. By single clicking on “visible in” or on each individual command it is then possible to grant
the privileges required by then double clicking on one or more levels in the “user level” field. The levels are
then marked with a tick.
If all user levels should be allowed to use a particular command, a double click on this element is sufficient to
do so (the user levels are then no longer shown for this element). This is also applicable for making an item
visible, or for making ALL commands available to ALL user levels for a particular type of function, with a dou-
ble click on this item again being sufficient. It is of course also possible to give unrestricted privileges for a
certain device type by means of a double click.
The menu item “Keys in Level 1” can be used to define which keys’ function for level 1 access privileges and
which do not.
Name: The username can be freely selected and is required for identification purposes.
Password: The password can be freely selected and is required for identification purposes.
TelNo: The Server telephone no. must be entered for the callback function or for the service call.
Behaviour: This entry is necessary if the control unit should call the user back at the telephone number that
has been entered. For a mobile user, this option is not allowed to be activated.
Rights: Define the user rights for operation, firmware download, and for configuration of the control unit.
never: No rights are granted.
Once released: Access is possible once local permission has been given.
Pursuant to VDE 0833-1, access is only allowed after permission has been granted locally at the
fire alarm control panel.
Filter nothing: All elements of the marked element type can pass through the filter.
Filter all: No elements of the marked element type can pass through the filter.
Ranges: Only specific elements (e.g. output 1-2) can pass through the filter. All other elements of this ele-
ment type are rejected by the filter.
New: New ranges can be assigned for the selected element type – e.g. output 1-2. Furthermore it
is also defined in which user level the range is to operate.
Filter unused element types: No elements of the unmarked element type can pass through the filter.
Element number: Enter the element numbers of the relevant range for the selected element type. e.g. the
detector zone element type was selected, and this input refers to detector zones 1-4.
Operable in user level: Definition in which user levels the released elements can be operated. e.g. the de-
tector zones 1-4 can only be operated in user levels 2,3 and 8.
In order to define a range filter, choose the „Range filter“ menu item in the „Definitions“ menu and click on
the “new” button. The range filter window opens.
To set up a range filter for detector zones, select the element type “detector zone”. In the input window
“Range” enter the detector zones in the “element number” field. In addition, define in which user levels the
detector zones can be operated. This setting is made in the “Range” window in the “User level of control”
field.
The range filter is assigned to the operating panel by selecting the menu item „2 logical properties” in the menu
“Section” and selecting the element type “Operating panel” from the dropdown list and operating panel 1 is
opened. Then, in the window that follows, click on the “Range filter” button and select the created filter from
the list.
If you go back to the range filter definition once the range filter has been assigned, then the operating panel 1
appears in the reference list for the range filter in question.
4.13.1 Table of Message FiltersIn this window there is the opportunity to define new message fil-
ters or to edit existing ones.
Edit Copy: Create a copy of the message filter marked in the list and edit it. The message filter, from which
the copy has been created, is not modified in any way.
Reference: Displays the references to which message filter marked in the list exists.
The three buttons that are found in the bottom right of the window are used to im-
port and export message filters and to open and edit macro libraries.
When exporting: The project properties dialogue box appears every time the file is exported. It is
therefore possible to change the version number every time or to enter hints about
changes.
Name: The name of the message filter is entered in the „Name“ field.
Element states: The states of the elements are defined which should be filtered using this button. e.g. for
the detector zone element only alarms should be printed out. The message filter must be configured in such
a way that the alarm state of the detector zone element type are filtered. This message filter can be assigned
to a printer.
Internal states: There is the state „warm start“ among the internal states, which can be filtered. This state is
announced, if the subcontrol unit in question switches over from side A to side B as a result of different
hardware errors (e.g. defective modules, falsely configured modules etc.). This message can be suppressed.
Commands: Both the operating panel printer as well as external printers normally (when there are no mes-
sage filters being used) issue two messages when a command is entered at an operating panel. The first mes-
sage is for the command that was just entered. The second message is to acknowledge that the command
was successfully executed. To save time and paper, the printing out of commands can be suppressed, since it
generally suffices if only the acknowledgements are printed out.
„incoming event“: e.g. “fault” state after state change from idle => fault
„outgoing event“: e.g. “idle” state after state change from fault => idle
The menu point to be configured alters the display accordingly, dependent on whether the setting “filter
checked states” (display => filter only outgoing event) or “let checked states pass” (display => let only incom-
ing events pass) has been set.
In the following example for the input element type, the states “fault” and “disablement” are so programmed
that all information (incoming and outgoing events) are let through.
The “active” state is so programmed, that only incoming information is allowed to pass through. The menu
item “only allow incoming events” has also been activated. This means that only the event “input active” is let
through. If the input were to change to a passive state, then this information would be filtered and also not
printed.
It should be noted that each change of state comprises of the following 2 messages.
„incoming event“: e.g. “active” state after state change from idle => active
„outgoing event“: e.g. state “idle (input passive)” after change of state from active => idle (in-
put passive)
The menu point to be configured alters the display accordingly, dependent on whether the setting “filter
checked states” (display => filter only outgoing event) or “let checked states pass” (display => let only incom-
ing events pass) has been set.
It should be checked without fail whether “filter marked states” or “let marked states through” is
set in the bottom left of the window before carrying out these settings.
4.13.5 Commands
Both the operating panel printer as well as external printers normally (when there are no message filters being
used) issue two messages when a command is entered at an operating panel. The first message is for the com-
mand that was just entered, with the second message being for the acknowledgement for the successful execu-
tion of the command. To save time and paper, the printing out of commands (see picture) can be suppressed,
since it generally can be sufficient if only the acknowledgements are printed out.
Operating panel printers or external printers can be assigned up to four different message filters (level 1 to level
4). The operation, i.e. the activation and disabling and selection of the message filters for levels 1 to 4, can be
restricted to certain user levels using an operating macro.
Name: The list of defined message filters is contained underneath the name item. For example as message
filter level 1 - Beispielsweise wird als Meldungsfilter Ebene 1, “Drucker STD“ has been assigned to operating
panel printer 1.
Link: Message filters can also be combined. To do this, make the relevant message filters and choose either
an OR or an AND link.
4.14 Messages
With the help of messages, it is possible to automatically execute nearly all commands which can also be exe-
cuted at the operating panel of the fire alarm control panel manually (message type = command) based on a
certain event (=link, the logical state of a Boolean definition. Moreover messages in the internal data format of
the fire alarm control panel can also be configured (message type = text).
Edit Copy: Create a copy of the message marked in the list and edit it. The message, from which the copy
has been created, is not modified in any way.
The three buttons that are found in the bottom right of the window are
used to import and export messages and to open and edit macro libraries.
Name: The message must have had a name assigned to it (max. 30 characters).
Message for Link result: First it needs to be defined, based upon which logical state (0/False/Low or
1/True/High) of the selected link that the message should be executed. A message can also be configured
for both states. Moreover, the setting must be actively selected, then a message in the form of a command
or message can be configured.
When configuring a command, this must always be assigned an authorisation level, as othewise it can not be
executed. If the command should be executed for several elements, then a range filter can if required also be
assigned a range filter.
When configuration messages, it is recommended that you contact technical support.
Priority: Default = low, in the instance of their being several simultaneously occuring messages, the ones
with the higher priority will be processed preferentially (e.g. alarms).
Reactivate: After using the “reset” command, it is possible to configure whether in the event of their being
an outstanding activation criterion, whether an additional activation criterion should cause it to be reacti-
vated.
Name: The „Name“ field, the name of the sum criterion to be defined is entered.
States: In the list of all available states, the selected ones are marked by a . If only 1 state is selected, then
1 substate for this state must be entered. If more than 1 state is selected, then all available substates are
automatically selected.
Substates: If only 1 state is selected, then partial amounts of substates can be selected (e.g. disablement ->
disablement using key). The selected substates are marked with a . All substates can also be selected in one
go.
Significance: If a (sub)state can have several significances (e.g. prealarm and alarm of the SSD 531 optical
smoke detector) then the required significance must be entered. Otherwise this value must be set to 1.
Element types: In the list of all available element types, the selected ones are marked by a . If only 1 ele-
ment type is selected, then 1 subelement type for this must be entered. If more than 1 element type is se-
lected, then all available subelement types are automatically selected. All element types can also be selected
in one go.
Subelement types: If only 1 element type is selected, then partial amounts of subelement types can be se-
lected (e.g. detector zone -> manual call point). The selected subelement types are marked with a . All
subelement types can also be selected in one go.
Functional types: In the list of all available function types, the selected ones are marked by a . The func-
tional type „element itself“ is to be chosen with few exceptions.
Range filters: The sum criterion can be restricted to one or more range filters with a specific range of val-
ues.
If the scope of the information of the Listgenerator programming to be printed out is to be restricted, then a
so-called “Printer template” must be created.
If the entire scope of the documentation needs to be printed, than in the printer template selection field, the
entry <none> should be selected.
Current file: All defined macros for the current configuration are listed here by name.
Library: The macros that have been saved in an existing library can be imported (loaded from a file) or a
newly formed library can be exported (saved as a file). In both lists (current file and library) marked macros
can be copied back and forth, deleted (reference must be 0) or renamed (one 1 macro may be marked).
Also copy macros used in references: When activated, cross references (e.g. a Boolean definition contain-
ing a sum criterion) are automatically copied across too.
If faults occur (e.g. detector zones without a detector zone macro, incomplete Boolean defini-
tions etc.) on the other hand, then the export of the configuration file is stopped and no .lpd file
is produced.
binary: Configuration is only exported in binary form (*.lpd). This is also the recom-
mended standard setting.
Text (.TXT): Configuration is only exported in text format (for development purposes only).
Both formats: Configuration is exported in both formats (binary and text).
Memory:
Create a backup copy: When saving changes, a backup copy of the current *.lpd configuration file is pro-
duced.
The backup file has the same filename, but instead of being saved with the file-
name extension, it is saved with a ~ character.
When saving: The project properties dialogue box appears every time the file is saved. It is there-
fore possible to change the version number every time or to enter hints about
changes.
This information occurs where changing from level 1 (fitting) to level 2 (logical properties) and signals that
logical elements were removed during the fitting process. By deleting the elements are also removed from level
2. Examine the following example:
In level one, outputs 107-116 were fitted to a REL16. Then the change was made to level 2. Since the outputs
107-116 are not required, the programmer changed back to level 1 and deactivated the outputs that were not
required. Then by changing back to level 2 again the information window opens and remarks that no physical
elements exist any longer for the outputs 107-116. . The elements are removed by deleting them. If the ele-
ments however, had been previously configured in level 2, then the settings are permanently deleted.
4.17.5 References
In this information window, all elements are listed that have been assigned links (e.g. Boolean definitions, sum
criteria, operating macro etc.).
Name: The list template must have had a name assigned to it (max. 30 characters). The macro can then be
found using this name in the list template table.
Element type: Selection of the element types to edit. The view can be individually adapted for every ele-
ment type in level 2.
The view of the element type is edited by selecting columns 1-4.
Example: The settings for the element type detector zone were carried out as follows:

5.1 Screen elements
The screen elements are described in this chapter with are available in the IntegralText Tool.
5.1.1 Overview
The main window of the IntegralText contains the following main screen elements:
System menu: The system menu contains general command, which refer to the active document.
Menu bar: All commands are listed by categories, which are required to work with IntegralText in the menu
bar.
Tool bar: The tool bar is displayed horizontally or vertically on the edge of the application window or as a
separate window. It offers quick access to frequently used IntegralText commands. In order to hide or open
the tool bar, the tool bar command can be selected from the menu view. By clicking the left mouse button
between the symbols, the tool bar can be dragged to where you want it. One frame displays the new posi-
tion.
Tab bar: The tab list can be set user-specifically and is used to change quickly between the open documents.
Element types (Tree view): All control units and their element types are listed, with there being at least
one record in existence.
Records (List View): In this view all records are displayed of the element type chosen in the tree view. The
records are sorted initially in ascending numerical order. New records are always appended at the end of the
list.
Entry bar: New records are entered and existing records modified in the entry bar.
Status bar: The status bar can be found at the bottom edge of the IntegralText window and displays further
information about editing the records.
Program window: The main IntegralText window contains the menu bar, toolbar, status bar and the opened
documents. To move between the opened documents or to sort them, look at the commands of the system and
window menu.
Window frame: Every window is surrounded by a window frame. If you hover with the mouse cursor over the
window frame, the cursor changes into a double-ended arrow. If you left click with the mouse now, you can
change the size of the window.
Title bar:
The title bar extends above the upper edge of the window. It contains the name of the application and the ac-
tive document. The title bar can be dragged to move the window. Note: Dialogue windows can also be moved
by dragging their title bar. A double click on the title bar toggles between increasing the size of the window to
fill the whole screen, and returning it to its original size and position.
A title bar can contain the following elements:

Status bar:
The status bar can be found at the bottom edge of the IntegralText window and displays further information
about editing the records. If you select a menu entry or move the mouse over a button on the toolbar, then the
left part of the toolbar describes the function that that button performs.
In the right part of the status bar the number of records in the list view are displayed as well as which of the
following keys are activated:
Scroll bar:
The scroll bar can be used to change the visible section on the screen. A mouse click on the arrows moves the
visible selection by one line. A mouse click on the light grey area moves the visible selection by one page. The
visible bar can also be dragged to the required position using the mouse.
Print: The print dialogue field, from which a print job can be started, is called up using this
button.
One page / two pages: Toggles between whether one or two pages should be visible at the same time.
Zoom in: The page can be examined more closely using this option.
Close: Closes the page view and returns to the editing window.
In order to mark several records, hold the following keys down and then select a record:
SHIFT: All records between the current record up to and including the chosen one are marked.
CTRL: Only the record that is chosen is marked additionally (the other marking is not affected).
Highlights the record which already exists and which should be overwritten.
Highlights the records which contain at least more characters in a line than are allowed.
The display type can be changed using the command "List view setting (menu view)".
SC: The number of the slave control units, for which a text should be entered, is selected from the list. Only
the numbers of slave control units are available that have previously been added.
Element type: The element type, for which a text should be entered, can be selected from the list.
No.: The element number for the corresponding element type is entered here.
Detector: For the 'Zone' element type it is possible to enter a subnumber (detector number) - (This input is
possible for all element types, but it is not always meaningful to do so).
Normal / Special:The text for the operating panel and the printer (normal text) is entered here. Addition-
ally, the text for an FBF (special text) can be entered. There are fields for the first three lines to be entered.
If more lines are required, then they should be entered in the third line and separated from one another us-
ing the character combination \u.
HighEnd: The text for the high end operating panel (HighEnd text) is entered here. There is a text area for
entering the text.
Info: The additional text is entered here. There is a text area for entering the text.
Text-Type add / change: Here it is possible to determine which text type should be affected by the
changes. If for example only the normal text should be changed, then all other text types must be deacti-
vated, so that the text contained in them is not changed.
New / Change: These buttons can be used to either add a new record (new) or to confirm the changes to
an existing record (change).
In order to hide or open the tool bar, the tool bar command can be selected from the menu view. By clicking
the left mouse button between the symbols, the tool bar can be dragged to where you want it. One frame dis-
plays the new position.
Copies the marked data and transfers the data in tabular form into the clipboard (Excel)
Pastes data in tabular from (e.g. from Excel) from the clipboard.
Jump to next record of this element type that has too many characters per line.
5.1.7 Commands
Automatic autoincrementing
If automatic autoincrementing is switched on, then after a new record has been created, or an existing one has
been changed, then the element subnumber (for groups) or the element number (for all other element types) is
automatically increased by 1.
5.1.8 Miscellaneous
Space for docking the toolbar: The toolbar can be docked to any edge of the main window of the Integral-
Text, or be placed as a freely floating window anywhere on the screen. To do his, hold down the left mouse
button between the symbols, and drag the toolbar to the position you wish to move it to. A frame is displayed
which shows the position which it will have, when the mouse button is released.

/ Command: New window), then the Close command only closes a single window from the document system
menu. To close all windows at once, you can use the Close command in the File menu.
Next
Changes to the next open document window
New: Creates a new document. The standard settings (characters per line, language, ...) can be set using the
standard settings (Options menu).
Open: Opens an existing document. Several documents can be opened simultaneously in IntegralText. Using
the Window menu, it is possible to switch between several simultaneously opened documents.
Close: Closes an open document. In the event that a document is closed without being saved, then all changes
will be lost that have been made since the document was last saved.
Save: Saves an open document under the same filename as before. The document is always saved in the newest
file format using the Save command. If the document should be saved in another format, then Save and select
format should be selected.
Save as...: Saves an opened document under a specified filename, using the newest file format. To save the
currently active document in another file format, select the “Save and select format” command should be used.
Open with keyword file...: Opens IntegralText files (file format version 1) which were created using another
keyword file. After selecting the file to be opened you are asked to specify the keyword file.
Save and select format...: Saves the active document in another file format. This command is only available
when the document only covers a single Standard BMZ (no slave control units).
In the dialogue box that appears after selecting Save and select format, it is possible to select the file format.
Data that does not exist in this format will not be saved.
Maxima C Version: Saves the data as Maxima file version C (DBF file). This file can be read with all
Maxima Text tools.
IntegralText Version 1: Saves the data in a format for IntegralText prior to version 3.0.0 and the text parser.
IntegralText Version 2: Saves the data in file format 2. The file can be read with IntegralText version 3.0.0
and higher. Slave control units can be saved from this version.
IntegralText Version 3: Saves the data in file format 3. The file can be read with IntegralText version 3.1.0
and higher. Special texts can be saved from this version.
IntegralText Version 4: Saves the data in file format 4. The file can only be read with IntegralText version
3.2.0 and higher. HighEnd texts and Info texts can be saved from this version.
IntegralText Version 5: Saves the data in file format 5. This is the current file format. It can only be read by
IntegralText version 3.3.0 and higher. SC names, file information and the list view
settings can be saved from this version.
Export: Creates the TPD file which is to be read into the BMZ. This file is created in the export folder, which
is setting using the “Folder” menu item in the Options menu. The dialogue box contains the following con-
tents, and appears after the Export command is selected, if there are slave control units in the document.
Export all control units: A file is created for every slave control unit, which must then be read into the
corresponding control unit.
Export one control unit: Select the slave control unit which should be exported.
Save Maxima texts as DBF file: If a slave control unit is defined as a Maxima, then a DBF file is created in
the export folder, which can then be subsequently processed by the Maxima
Textcompiler.
When the dialogue box for exporting a file appears, you are not asked when any existing file
should be overwritten!
Export HighEnd Control Panel: Creates the TPD file which is to be read into the HighEnd control panel.
This file is created in the export folder, which is setting using the “Folder” menu item in the Options menu.
The contents of the dialogue box correspond to those of the “Export” command and appear after the “Export
HighEnd control panel” command, if there are slave control units mentioned in the document.
Export old versions - Structure 2.0.0 / Structure 3.0.0: Creates the tpd file which is read into the BMZ (for
Integral prior to version 5.1.0.) This file is created in the export folder, which is setting using the “Folder”
menu item in the Options menu. The contents of the dialogue box correspond to those of the “Export” com-
mand and appear after the “Export old versions” command, if there are slave control units mentioned in the
document. Data which are not available in this version, are not exported.
Page setup...: Selects the paper format and page margins for printing the documents. The possible settings
depend on the printer that is selected. When setting the page margins, it is necessary to ensure that these mar-
gins are not smaller that the printable page margins.
Print...: Prints a document. If there is more than one BMZ or SCs, then a dialogue box appears for selecting
what should be printed. Thereafter, the Print dialogue box appears, if which you can specify the page range to
be printed, the number of copies, the printer to be used, and other printer setting options. The following op-
tions allow you to define how the document should be printed:
Print preview: Displays the document in print view on the screen – as it should appear when printed. When
this command is selected, the main window is replaced by a page view window, in which one or two pages can
be displayed in print format. In the toolbar on the page view window, it is possible to select whether one or two
pages should be visible at the same time. It is also possible to flick through the pages of the document, to
enlarge/shrink the pages or to start a print job.
Print Setup: Selects a printer and a printer connection. After selecting the command, the Print Setup dialogue
box appears, in which it is possible to set the printer and its connection. The follow options are available as
standard:
Properties: Displays a dialogue box with the settings for the selected printer.
Paper: Select the paper format, on which the document should be printed. It is also possible to
specify from which paper tray the printer should take the paper.
Format: Select between landscape and portrait format.
Exit: Exits IntegralText. Alternatively, it is also possible to use the “Close” command in the system menu.
IntegralText then suggests saving the changes to the document prior to closing. In the event that a document is
closed without being saved, then all changes will be lost that have been made since the document was last
saved. Before an untitled document is closed, IntegralText displays the Save as... dialogue box and suggests
giving the document a name and saving it.
Cut: The marked records or texts are removed and placed into the clipboard.
Paste: Pastes the records from the clipboard into the marked place. This command is unavailable, if the clip-
board is empty or if the data does not have the correct format.
Copy to Excel...: Copies the marked data and transfers the data in tabular form into the clipboard (e.g. for
Excel) It is possible to set the data source and the data format in the dialogue box. The following settings are
available:
All element types of Copies the records of the currently selected slave control unit.
the current SC:
Current element type: Copies the records of the currently selected element type (only available if records are
shown in list view).
Marked records of the Copies the records which are marked in the list view (only available if records are
current element type: marked in the list view).
New: Creates a new (empty) format definition with which the records are copied into the
clipboard and then opens the Define format dialogue box.
Edit: Opens the selected format definition in the Define format dialogue box to modify the
settings.
Edit Copy: Creates a new format definition with the settings contained in the selected format defi-
nition and opens this in the Define format dialogue box.
Delete: Deletes the selected format definition. (The last definition can not be deleted).
Paste from Excel...: Pastes data in tabular from (e.g. from Excel) from the clipboard. The individual columns
of the Excel list must be separated using a tabulator character.
Select column: In the "Select columns" range field the number of columns is entered in which the data for
this field in the display area of the dialogue box is contained.
Load clipboard: Data which has been copied into the clipboard can be loaded into the display area using the
“Load clipboard” button.
Number: Enter the column number in which the element number (an integer from 1 to 65536 1) is
located.
Detector: Enter the column number in which the Sub-Number or Detector number (an integer from
0 to 255 1) is located.
Line 1: Entry of the column number in which the text for the first line or all lines is located. If the
character string \u or \c are present then they are treated as an optional or non-optional
line break. See Structure of a record.
Line 2 – 4: Entry of the column number in which the text for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th lines is located. If the
character string \u or \c are present then they are treated as an optional or non-optional
line break. If break characters are contained in the previous lines, then the line if moved
accordingly.
1) There should be no spaces between the numbers. If the number does not correspond to the range of values, or if there is no number in the filed, then
this line can not be added and therefore it will be skipped and the process will continue with the next line.
Save settings: The current column settings are saved using the “Save settings” button. These settings only
apply for the user who is currently logged into Windows (every user has their own settings).
Load settings: The settings are reloaded using the “Load settings” button or serve as initial values when
the program is started.
Select all: All lines are selected (marked) using the “Select all” button.
Invert selection: The "Invert selection" button inverts the selection (marked lines) so that the unmarked lines
become marked and the marked lines become unmarked.
Convert umlauts If the „Convert umlauts from ANSI to ASCII“ option is activated then the text entered
from ANSI to using the ANSI character (used by Windows) is converted into the ASCII character set
ASCII: (used by the BMZ Integral). This affects the country specific special characters (e.g. um-
lauts). IntegralText uses the ASCII character set.
Paste into: It is possible to select the control unit to which the data should be assigned using the “SC”
list.
The element type to which the data should be assigned (see element types) can be selected
using the “Element” list.
Insert selection: Using the „Insert selection“ button, only the selected (marked) lines are added.
Insert all: All lines are added using the "Insert all" button, regardless of which lines are marked. If an
element that is to be inserted has the number of an element that already exists, then a dia-
logue box appears, in which it is possible to select whether the element should be overwrit-
ten.
Copy to another element...: Copies the marked records from the list view to another element type in the same
document. If you have created records for the element type „operating panel“, they can e.g. be copied to the
„Printer“ element type. The records are not copied into the clipboard in this instance.
Insert into another element...: Inserts the contents of the clipboard into a slave control unit for another ele-
ment type. If a record already exists with the same number, then a dialogue box appears, in which it is possible
to select whether the record should be overwritten. This command is unavailable, if the clipboard is empty or if
the data does not have the correct format.
Edit sub-number...: It is possible to edit the subnumber using this command, even if the entry field is deacti-
vated. The sub number (detector number) is normally entered directly in the entry bar. This is only possible for
the “Zone” element type. For other element types a sub number is not meaningful, but it is possible to enter
one with the help of this dialogue box.
Edit marked records...: Edits the records marked in the list view, and assigns the same text to all of them.
The text of the last marked record is displayed in the dialogue box. At the same time, the text type, which
should be entered or modified is activated. Text types, which should not be altered should be deactivated. If a
text type is activated, but the entry field is empty, then this text type is deleted for all marked records.
Text / Special Text: The text is entered in the fields "Line 1" and "Line 2". In the event that more than two
lines are required, then the remaining lines should be entered in the field “Line 3”. Line
breaks can be entered in the field “Line 3” by entering the characters “\u”.
IntegralText checks the number of characters entered in the first two lines. You may
only enter as many characters as have been defined in the Settings dialogue box.
HighEnd-Text: The text in the entry field is used for being displayed on the HighEnd control panel. The
number of available characters is displayed next to the entry field. Negative numbers
mean that the text is too long and will be truncated.
Info-Text: This text can not be exported. It serves solely for entering user-defined information.
Go to...: Opens a dialogue box for entering the element and sub number. If no sub number is entered, then the
first record with the element number is marked.
Search...: Searches in the records of the current element type for the text that is entered.
When searching, forced (\c) and unforced (\u) line breaks are replaced by two spaces, i.e. if the search string is
entered containing two consecutive spaces, then this will also be found in the first part is at the end of one line
and the second part starts at the beginning of the next line.
Slave control unit number: Selects the SC number. Only numbers are available are listed.
Master control unit: A master control unit displays all SCs. Therefore when exporting it, the texts
for all control units are entered into the export file. This is only possible using
a BMZ Integral.
Slave control unit number: Selects the SC number. Only numbers are available are listed.
Master control unit: A master control unit displays all SCs. Therefore when exporting it, the texts
for all control units are entered into the export file. This is only possible using
a BMZ Integral.
Delete SC: Deletes the currently selected slave control unit (SC). All texts for this SC are also removed.
Change SC...: Changes the settings for the currently selected slave control unit (SC).
Slave control unit number: Selects the SC number. Only numbers are available are listed.
Master control unit: A master control unit displays all SCs. Therefore when exporting it, the texts
for all control units are entered into the export file. This is only possible using
a BMZ Integral.
Properties SC...: Changes the properties for the currently selected slave control unit (SC). These settings are
saved in the file. If this properties window is shown upon opening or exporting, then no changes can be made.
There are the following possible settings in the dialogue box:
SC info tab:
Text name: The text name can have a maximum of 31 characters.
Version: Enter the version of the text here (version, revision, level).
The numbers may be between 0 and 255.

Text: Fill lines with spaces -> Text line is filled up with spaces up to the maximum
Special Text: permitted number of characters per line. (only for the first two lines). This may
be necessary for connecting foreign systems (e.g. PSA, Global Alarm Server
etc.). Fill up second line, even when empty: The second line is filled with
spaces even when no text has been entered in this line. This may be necessary
for connecting foreign systems (e.g. PSA, Global Alarm Server etc.).
The special text can be displayed on the FBF.
Tab bar...: Changes the settings of the tab bar. The dialogue box makes it possible to toggle the tab bar on or
off, or to choose whether it should be displayed at the top or the bottom.
The tab bar is used to change quickly between the opened documents. It shows the filenames as register cards.
Character table: Toggles the character table on/off. If the character table is displayed then a tick is shown
next to this menu entry. In the character table, all the characters that can be used1), are shown. While this dia-
logue window is open, it is possible to continue working normally with IntegralText. The dialogue can be
moved using the Move option. To close the character table, click on the „Close“ button, or click on the symbol
in the toolbar.
1)To use all the characters with an ASCII code of more than 127 (the last four lines in the dia-
logue box), the operating panel’s display must be capable of showing graphics (not the case for
German operating panels). The German umlauts (upper and lower case) are however possible.

List view:
Data: The list view can use a single line or multiple lines. In single line mode, all
texts are shown in a separate column. In the multiple line mode, the se-
lected text types are shown below one another.
Lines: Select the text types to be displayed. This is only possible if the list view has
been set to “multiple line” mode.
Show gridlines: Shows gridlines in the list view between the records.
Working folder: The "Open", "Save as" and "Import SC" dialogue box uses this folder. Enter the
complete path on the entry field or select it by clicking on the button. If you
select the "Last opened folder" option field, then it is not possible to enter the file
path. The dialogue fields are then always set to the folder in which a file was last
selected.
Keywords file...: Entry about the keywords file, which is used to open IntegralText files. The same keywords
file as the text parser uses must be set. The element types in the BMZ Integral about which texts can be written
are entered in the keywords file. The keywords file should contain at least 25 keywords.
New window: Opens the same document in a new window. Several document windows can be opened. It is
possible then to look at different sections or views of a document at the same time this way. In the event that
the contents of the file is changed in one of the windows that is opened, then the changes are adopted by all the
windows that contain the same document. If a new window is opened, then it becomes the active window, and
is displayed in front of all the other opened windows.
Overlapping: Arranges the windows in IntegralText so that they overlap one another.
Side by side: Arranges the windows in IntegralText so that they next to one another.
Arrange symbols: Arranges the windows that have been minimized by IntegralText. If there is an open docu-
ment window there, it can occur that some or all symbols are covered, because they are underneath the docu-
ment window.
1, 2, 3, 4: At the bottom of the Window menu, IntegralText displays a list of the currently opened window
views. If there are more than nine of them, the command „Further windows“ is displayed, with which you can
open a dialogue box with all the windows. A tick is shown in front of the active window. A window view can
be selected from the list to activate it.
Help to IntegralText: Opens the Help program and shows the start page.
Read me...: Displays the "ReadMe.txt" file. It contains important information about the IntegralText which is
not contained in this help file.
Info about IntegralText...: In order to display the copyright information and the version number of the copy
of IntegralText.
Every record is assigned to an element type and has an element number. For the 'Zone' element type it is possi-
ble to enter a subnumber (detector number) - (This input is possible for all element types, but it is not always
meaningful to do so).
Normal Text:
The text should not have more than 20 characters per line, so that the output on the display and on the printer is
identical. If, for example, two text lines each with 22 characters are available, then on the display, after 20 char-
acters have been displayed, then subsequent ones appear on the next line and the second line is moved to the
third or fourth line. The text is on two lines on the printer.
If another text output device (e.g. external printer, PSA, management system etc.) is connected to the BMZ
Integral, then the technician must be consulted about the number of characters per line and the number of lines.
If 'forced breaks' are used, then the BMZ Integral checks whether the text until the next break still fits on the
line for every output device. The characters must be counted to know whether a forced break is required or not.
When using forced breaks, please consult the technician beforehand (the character combination for the forced
break is \c, and that for a normal line break is \u).
HighEnd-Text:
There is a text area for entering the text. The text is entered here (change of line using ENTER). The free width
on the display, in pixels, is shown next to the entry field. Negative values mean that the text is too long and will
be truncated. The font that is used does not exactly correspond to the one that is used on the HighEnd control
panel. The entered text might differ from the actual line length, but the numbers next to the entry field are ex-
actly correct.
When exporting the HighEnd-Text it is also optionally possible to write the normal text (if available) before the
HighEnd-Text.
Info-Text:
There is a text area for entering the text. The text is entered here (change of line using ENTER). This text can
not be exported! It serves solely for entering user-defined information.
A record may contain a maximum of two lines (additional lines are not saved).
The lines must have a length of 20 characters (any characters above that will be truncated).
Only element types Zone, Input, Output and Monitored Output are allowed (all records with other element
types are not saved).
The highest permitted element number is 4095 and for monitored outputs 256 (records with higher element
numbers will not be saved).
Only for Zone element types are sub numbers allowed (for records of other element types with sub
numbers are not saved).
The highest allowed sub number is 99 (records with higher sub numbers are not saved).
Forced line breaks are not allowed (when the records are saved, then the forced breaks are replaced by a
space, after 20 characters a line break is inserted, and after another 20 characters the text is truncated).

The name of the element types is dependent on the keywords file used.
*) Only these element types are used with the BMZ Maxima.
1. Choose the control unit, for which the record should be created.
2. Select the element type from the list, for which the record should be created.
3. Enter the element number and sub number.
4. The text is entered in the fields "Line 1" and "Line 2". In the event that more than two lines are re-
quired, then the remaining lines should be entered in the field “Line 3”. Line breaks can be entered in
the field “Line 3” by entering the characters \u. IntegralText checks the number of characters entered
in the first two lines. Only as many characters can be entered as have been entered in the „Settings"
dialogue box (Options / Command settings menu. See also toolbar / characters per line). If necessary
the other text types can also be entered, or existing records can be changed later.
5. By pressing ENTER or the “new” button, the record is added to the end of the list, and is marked with
a blue arrow .
If the element type is not available, then it is added in the tree view. If a record with the same number already
exists, this is displayed in the list view and marked with a red arrow . It can be decided whether the existing
record should be overwritten. Moreover, only the text types can be added that are selected.
If auto increment is activated, then after a record is successfully added or changed, then the element number is
increased by one. Depending on settings, the text remains in the input fields or is deleted (see Options / Com-
mand settings menu).
1. Select the record in the list view. This record is copied into the fields of the input bar.
2. Change or supplement the individual text types. If the number or element type has been changed, then
a new record is generated.
3. By selecting the „Change“ button or entering the keyboard shortcut the record is changed in the ad-
dress and marked with a blue arrow .
4. If the number or subnumber was changed, then this record is treated like a new one, and it can be de-
cided whether the new record should be added. Moreover, only the text types can be added that are se-
lected.
If auto increment is activated, then after a record is successfully added or changed, then the element number is
increased by one. Depending on how the system is set, the text will remain in the input fields or will be deleted.
However, the text is not loaded from an existing record (see Options / Command settings menu).
1. Select the control unit, the element type, and if necessary a sub number or selection of the existing re-
cord in the list view.
B-HB-010EN Manual Integral Software 6.2 V 2.1 171
IntegralText Process for producing the records
Example:
First a detector zone number without a detector number must be written for the “Zone” element type. This
text is output when a detector zone is disabled and should describe the detector zone’s general location (e.g. for
zone 15: "Room 1st floor" or Zone 21: "Ground floor kitchen").
Then a record must be created for every detector (e.g. for detector 15/1: "1st floor room 101" or detector 21/7:
"Ground floor kitchen - dishwasher").
If a record is not created for a detector, then a text is used that is created without a detector number.
The location of the detector can be found from the plans. The number must be compared with the submitted
plans.
The remaining element types of the BMZ Integral can be obtained from the technician.
6 WinLoader
All functions which WinLoader has are described in this chapter.
6.1 Installation and Starting the Program
WinLoader is automatically installed during the Integral software setup process. It is preconfigured for use with
the version of the software with which it has been shipped. It is therefore recommended not to make any other
changes in settings, apart from those necessary settings for the communications port described below.
The program is started by clicking on the WinLoader in the start menu, or the quick start bar on the desktop.
Information about using the USB interface can be found in the hardware description.
Control Panel Information: Control panel type, subcontrol unit number, program status, booter version,
flash memory size, RAM size, EEPROM size and free flash memory of the attached (selected) MCU
Files in Flash Memory: Software components which are currently stored in the BMZ’s flash memory.
Structure: Determined by software compatibility
Data: Version number of the data - project-specific
Name: Description and additional information which are entered by the programmer of the system.
Local files: Software components which have been selected by the user for uploading into the BMZ.

Local files: Software components which have been selected by the user for uploading into the BMZ.
Connect the Service PC cable to the front side of the B3-MCU32E2 or the B4-BCU A2E and to the PC
(serial interface COM1 .. COM8).
Start WinLoader on the PC.
Manually select the profile or connection type using the „Options / Communication...“ menu item.
Select local or central establishing of connection.
Pull the reset pin (RESET) out briefly and push it back in.
Communications in local download mode can then only be established with the BMZ Integral or BMZ Integral
C/C1 which is directly connected via the USB cable. In the case of an Integral subcontrol unit loop (2-16
SCUs) the loading process must therefore be carried out separately for each subcontrol unit.
When communications are established, the control panel is placed out of order. A subcontrol
unit loop only becomes fully functionally again, when ALL subcontrol units have been restarted
using the SAME software components.
During the entire connection process, and the entire loading process, all subcontrol units con-
nected to the control panel remain fully operational. Only once all subcontrol units have been
automatically reset, is the BMZ actual placed offline for a short period of time. The subcontrol
unit loop only becomes fully functionally again, when ALL subcontrol units have been restarted
using the SAME software components.
Connect the USB cable to the front side of the B5-MCU32 or B6-BCU as well as to the PC.
Start WinLoader on the PC.
Manually select the profile and connection type using the “Options / Communication...” menu item.
Select local or central establishing of connection.
Set the control unit address (only for local download)
Pull the reset pin (RESET) out briefly and push it back in.
Communications in local download mode can then only be established with the BMZ Integral
which is directly connected via the USB cable. In the case of an Integral subcontrol unit loop (2-
16 SCUs) the loading process must therefore be carried out separately for each subcontrol unit.
When communications are established, the fire alarm control panel is placed out of order. A sub-
control unit loop only becomes fully functionally again, when ALL subcontrol units have been
restarted using the SAME software components.
During the entire connection process, and the entire loading process, all subcontrol units con-
nected to the control panel remain fully operational. Only once all subcontrol units have been
automatically reset, is the BMZ actual placed offline for a short period of time. The subcontrol
unit loop only becomes fully functionally again, when ALL subcontrol units have been restarted
using the SAME software components.
One or more components can be simultaneously uploaded. The components are added to a file list ('Local files'
list). All entries in the file list are written into the B3-MCU32E2, B4-BCUA2E or B5-MCU32’s flash memory in
the process. For tasks that are frequently repeated, it is possible to save as many file lists (*.LST files) (using the
menu “File / Save File List...”) and load them again (“File / Load File List …”).
The following components can be added to the file list using the “File / Add to List…” menu item. The fol-
lowing file types are supported:
Filetype extension LD CD
Operating program B3/ B4-MCU b3mcu_*.bin (e.g.: b3mcu_6_1_3.bin) x
Operating program B5/B6-MCU b5mcu_*.elf (e.g.: b3mcu_6_1_3.elf) x
Configuration *.lpd x x

WinLoader Feeding in data (Download)
A report is issued.
If an error is displayed, then the affected subcontrol units must be located and checked.
Where any doubt remains, repeat the loading process with a local download!
It is not possible under any circumstance to edit downloaded files or to change them! The read-
ing out of the files is intended for backup purposes (e.g. when changing the MCU).
6.7 Options
In this chapter the possible settings for the menu item “Options” are described.
6.7.1 General
For the establishment of a connection to function correctly, the
relevant library must be entered in the “Options / General…”
dialogue, with the same version being entered as was used to create
the configuration in Listgenerator.
The WinLoader is always shipped with the applicable settings for the version shipped, and it is
recommended that only an experienced user should make any changes!!
6.7.3 Language
The WinLoader supports German and English language operation and can be changed from one language to
the other during operation.
6.7.4 Profiles
Any alteration made to the options listed above is saved in the currently active profile. All settings are therefore
once again available the next time the program is started.
It is possible to use several different configurations from version 2.0.0 and above by saving and loading as
many profiles as required. The profiles are saved in the Windows Registry. The currently active profile is dis-
played in the title bar in between square brackets [ ].
It is possible to save the current profile under whichever name you wish by using the “Options / Save profile
…” menu item. Using the ‘Options / Load Profile …’ menu item, a saved profile can be loaded. A profile that
has become superfluous to requirements can be deleted from the registry using the “Options / Delete Pro-
file...” menu item.
6.8 LocalFlash
The LocalFlash is another flash memory, which is independent of the MCU’s central memory. This means that
the operating software of a module is no longer stored in the MCU, but is stored in the module’s local memory
(e.g. B5-CIE). The WinLoader’s LocalFlash function allows it to access this memory in order to make altera-
tions to data required for operation when the Integral Software is updated at a later date. It is also possible to
store optional files from a module in the flash memory. The operating files as well as the optional files can be
uploaded independently and separately to one another.
The LocalFlash function is only available for the Integral HighEnd Operating Panel (B3-CIE)
and can only be executed during centralized download. The LocalFlash function is supported
from the B3-MCU32E2 or B5-MCU32 as well as from version 5.1 of the Integral Software Pack.
Update available
The WinLoader is always shipped with the applicable settings for the version shipped, and it is
recommended that only an experienced user should make any changes!!
The new background logo will only be visible once the background has been changed (e.g. by calling up and
exiting the operating panel menu again).
Reaction texts can be generated using version 3.0 or higher of the IntegralText program.
The file with the reaction texts is read in by using the menu
item “Flash / Read in data” or by double clicking on the
button.
7 ServiceAssistant
ServiceAssistant is a tool in its own right and is included in the Integral Software Pack. It is used as an assis-
tance tool for the commissioning, maintenance and servicing of the Integral System and consists of the follow-
ing program components:
ServiceMonitor
LoopAssistant
NetworkMonitor
NetworkAssistant
Menu bar: Different functions can be started from the menu bar depending on the program.
Program button for selection the individual parts of the program: It is possible to switch between the
individual parts of the program via the individual buttons.
Shortcut bar: The most important program functions are available using individual quickstart buttons.
Status bar: The communication status to the Integral System is displayed on the status bar.
7.4 ServiceMonitor
The ServiceMonitor receives all internal messages via the Integral System’s serial interface. Commands can also
be sent to the Integral System with help from a menu point. The most important functions of ServiceMonitor
are:
Connection settings
Connect/Disconnect Connection
A connection is established to the Integral System
using the „Action/Connect“ menu item and the
connection is then disconnected using the menu point
„Action/Disconnect“ .
Curr. ...: The serial number increments by one for every event that occurs, and is reset to the value 0
in the event of a cold or warm start.
Element: The element type (incl. subtype) of the event is displayed in this column.
Element no.: The complete element number is displayed in this column. The element number can vary
depending on element type.
Status Command In this column, the possible element states and commands of the relevant element are dis-
played.
Date: The date and time of the event is shown in this column.
For a defined event (a trigger) a copy of the event log memory (trigger memory) is made. The trigger is defined
using a Boolean definition and a threshold value (a quantity of events) in Listgenerator. Once the copy has been
created, then the Boolean definition is ignored for a configurable period of time (trigger off-time).
Open EventList
A saved EventList (incl. event log memory and trigger memory) can be opened via the “Open EventList...”
context menu.
Restore Deactivations
A saved list of deactivations can be loaded into the event log memory section window by being opened. Using
the function „Restore DeactivateList“ the listed elements will be disabled. The disablement of the elements is
carried out regardless of their current state.
It may be necessary for service-related reasons, that the version information for the individual modules is
required. The version information can be queried with the help of the ServiceMonitor from a subcontrol unit,
for the entire subcontrol unit loop.
It is possible to send commands to the Integral System using the function “Send Command...”. For this a
FROM TO function is also supported.
It is possible using the „Software redundancy“ function, to activate the configured software redundancy for B6
control units in Listgenerator.
The physical state of the outputs will only revert to being the same as the logical state when the “Freeze out-
puts…” function is reset. This way it is possible to carry out logic tests on fire alarm devices, whilst this func-
tion also acts as a way of preventing triggering devices unintentionally during maintenance work.
The system messages show the internal functional procedures of the Integral System. The system messages of
the connected subcontrol unit can be displayed and logged using the ServiceMonitor.
The view of the system messages can be subdivided into two section windows:
System message
All system messages are continuously listed.
Plain text message
Marked system messages are shown in plain text.
The current system message is always selected by using the button “Focus on last message” .
„Clear“
The content of the system messages section
window is deleted.
„Use Logfile…“
The location for saving the log file is defined.
„Browse Logfile“
By activating or deactivating this menu logging
is started or stopped.
7.5.1 Construction
The LoopAssistant subdivides upon opening into the two following panes:
DCU (CustomView)
The loop is configured in this window. The automatic and non-automatic detectors are assigned zone
numbers and detector numbers, and the loop modules are assigned logical input and output numbers.
Furthermore, specific parameters can be set for individual loop devices.
DCU (EEPromView)
In this window the data from the loop is shown as it is saved in the control unit’s EEprom. If the
loop’s topology changes, then the modified data must be programmed into the control unit. The con-
trol unit was working with the data that is shown in this window.
For establishing a connection the galvanically isolated RS 232 interface (B3/B4) or the USB interface (B5/B6)
on the BMZ Integral or BMZ Integral C&C1 is used. The PC is connected using the Service PC Cable (Art.
No. FG81719 – RS232 or Art. No. FG022051 - USB).
Once the physical structure has been communicated, the loop devices must be assigned their logical addresses.
The loop devices are only evaluated or controlled over the assigned logical numbers.
After having been saved successfully the full path of the saved file can be found in the pane “DCU (Custom-
View)”.
Depending on the type of loop device, different parameters can be configured. In that case it concerns the
parameter types, detector, special detector, inputs and outputs. Based on the following four examples, the pa-
rameter types are explained.
The connection to the subcontrol unit(s) is established and the physical loop configuration is programmed.
Once the physical loop topology has been programmed, the loop devices must be uniquely addressed by the
Integral system. A unique address is saved in the EEprom of the loop device. This unique addressing is used
internally by the Integral System.
Once the reading in process has taken place, then the physically communicated current status is displayed in a
tree structure. Now the structure of the loops must be sent to the B3-LEE24, since they are not automatically
read in.
Displaying faults
In the event of a wire break in the loop, the informa-
tion field remains open once the loop topology has
been determined. In this window the number of de-
vices is displayed which have been found and the rea-
son for the fault displayed.
Once the loop has been read, the position of the wire
break is now shown.
In this example the wire break is after the first device
with the hardware address 42 on the loop.
Hardware type:
UAS159-I
Module configured as an input module (alarm of the
fault message)
UAS159-0
Module configured as a control module
SBS157-I
Module configured as an input module (alarm of the
fault message)
SBS157-0
Module configured as a control module
After the hardware type of the loop device has been determined, the input window “LogNumber” and
“Det.Number” , in which the logical number is entered. By pressing the “Apply Changes” button, the en-
tered information is accepted and then selection changed to the next loop device.
After having been saved successfully the full path of the saved file can be found in the pane “DCU (Custom-
View)”.
After configuring the physical loop structure, the configuration must be programmed into the Integral System.
See chapter 7.5.5 Configure/reset loop topology on B3-DAI2 and B4-DAI2
Once the reading in process has taken place, then the physically communicated current status is displayed in a
tree structure. The topology of the loop at the B3-DTI is automatically determined and therefore no further
settings are required.
It must be ensured that the address set at the detector has also been entered in the configuration
of the B3-DTI2 in Listgenerator.
8 NetworkAssistant
NetworkAssistant is a tool in its own right and is included in the Integral Software Pack. It is used as an assis-
tance tool for the commissioning, maintenance and servicing of the SecoNET Network and consists of the
following program components:
Network-Monitor
Network-Assistant
9 Trouble-shooting
Problems with USB dongle when using Windows Vista operating system
To guarantee that the USB Dongle (CRYPTO-BOX) for the Integral Software Pack works properly, the USB
drivers for Windows Vista (CRYPTO-BOX USB driver files for Windows Vista) must be downloaded and
installed from the website of the manufacturer of the USB Dongle (www.marx.com).
