8 Reset the battery fault alarm at the control panel.
6 System Configuration
CAUTION!
You must have appropriate knowledge on how to use the Configuration Program to
make a System Configuration.
In doubtful cases, do not hesitate to contact an authorized service office.
The configuration file can be downloaded using an approved USB memory stick
(available from an authorized dealer).
CAUTION!
Do not remove the USB memory stick until the download is finished.
Note that old versions of the definition program may affect the upload or system
operations. Use a program version of the CCP Configuration program compatible
with the system version used in your fire detection system.
NOTE!
The system will use the latest version of the file (with the last date and time).
The configuration file can be uploaded using an approved USB memory stick
(available from an authorized dealer).
CAUTION!
Do not remove the USB memory stick until the upload is finished.
NOTE!
The recommended way to load a configuration to a Control M X without USB-port
is by synchronizing the configuration from a USB equipped Control Module. This
is only possible if the Control M X resides on the same backbone as the USB
equipped Control Module (but it does not have to be in the configuration).
Another way of loading a configuration to a Control M X without USB-port is to
put its CCB in a USB equipped Control Module and load it as usual, then putting it
back in the Control M X.
NOTE!
In case of softcode changes on the entire system it is necessary to zero/reboot all
Loop M X modules.
Hint!
Files can also be transferred from a PC running System Software Updater to the
CCP System. Instructions for the System Software Updater program can be found
in the Appendix System Software Updater.
NOTE!
The protocol autoupdate and autoremoval functionality is valid from CCP software
version 1.10.0 and is supported for Control M X, Control M 4.3, and Control M 2.2
modules with USB port.
Prerequisites
• Computer running Windows 7/8/10
• Empty USB memory stick (bootable)
• Protocol cross reference file (.bin file)
NOTE!
Ensure there is no cm_firmware or cm_bios file on the USB memory stick.
All protocol .bin files will be removed from the Control M X and backed up to the
USB memory.
NOTE!
If both the autoupdate folder and the autoremove folder exist on the USB root
directory at the same time, this will trigger an autoupdate when the USB stick is
inserted.
Hint!
Manual restart:
If the Control M X does not restart automatically during the autoupdate or
autoremoval procedure, it has to be restarted manually. To perform a manual restart
the Control M X can be removed from its slot and then inserted again, or the entire
system can be powered off and on. A fault will appear indicating that the
Control M X has been restarted (in Control M 4.3 and/or Control M 2.2).

1 Press the Program Firmware button and This may take some time to
wait. complete.
Hint!
Before following the instructions below it might be a good idea to understand the
basics of what the instructions are trying to achieve in order to avoid excessive
master/slave switches and to minimize the traffic that occurs when the system is
trying to synchronize its state between all control modules.
In order to reduce the number of master/slave switches the ordering of the upgrade
is to start with the control modules on the primary system bus and then proceed
with the control modules on the secondary system bus.
To further reduce traffic on extension buses. Upgrade and restart the control
modules owning an extension bus before the repeaters on the extension bus.
Finally, for really large systems (more than 5000 loop units) it will further reduce
the traffic to disconnect the system buses completely at 1.1 and 1.2 during the
upgrade.
Upgrade for control panel modules (Control M 4.3 and Control M 2.2)

The outputs supporting the Basic Backup Signal have an X-Fire property that can
be set in the Configuration Program.
Modules not having full contact with the controller act upon the Basic Backup
Signal.
NOTE!
The pre-alarm level does not affect the Basic Backup Signal.
• Modules that can act as a Controller are able to generate a 2.0 V Surveillance
Voltage on the Basic Backup Signal. At present only the Control Modules can
act as a Master.
• Only one module within each Central may generate the 2.0 V Surveillance
Voltage on the Basic Backup Signal.
• All modules that can generate alarms are able to generate the 6.0-28 V Fire
Voltage signal on the Basic Backup Signal. At present Modules with an
addressable detector loop (Loop M X) and conventional Zone ( I/O 70 M) can
generate alarms.
• If an I/O module is operating in normal or quarantine mode and the master does
not poll the module for 75 seconds, the module shall enter isolated mode where
it monitors fire inputs and issues fire alarms on its own I/O and using the Basic
Backup Signal according to their pre-stored configuration.
• Modules that can be configured to handle X-Fire Alarm shall supervise the

• Central Controller Mode (Master or Hot Standby)
• Central Managed Mode
Modules connected to the System bus can be in:
• System Controller Mode (Master or Hot Standby)
• System Managed Mode
Module A module that is a part of the platform, where it can be used to build centrals. Modules
within the platform generally supply a Backbone bus interface. Controller modules
also have a System bus Interface.
Module address Module addresses are set via DIP switches on the modules.
Mute Acknowledge and silence the local buzzer and in some cases the alarm devices.
N/A Not Applicable.
OEM Original Equipment Manufacturer.
PA Public Addressing.
Power output Output providing power supply, normally used to power external devices.
Pre-Alarm condition A condition preceding the Alarm condition to give early warning for potentially
dangerous situations like a smouldering fire.
Programmable output Output which signal behaviour is configurable via the Configuration program.
PSU Power Supply Unit.
Rate of Rise Rate of Rise functionality by using C/E commands for setting of a different alarm
threshold and temperature rise threshold for heat detectors.
Redundancy Refers to the quality or state of being redundant, that is exceeding what is necessary or
normal. In the system the term is used to describe backup functionality like in Hot
Standby Controller modules.
Redundant loop Redundant loop means loop module redundancy on one single loop-line between two
loop modules.
Relay Electrically operated switch output, normally providing C/NO/NC contacts for
connection of signal receiver.
Repeater panel The main attribute for Repeater panels is that they can show information but not affect
the central (or system) they belong to. The Repeater M 4.3 is a Repeater panel.
RS-485 Serial communication interface used for external communication and BackBone bus.
Is a standard defining the electrical characteristics of drivers and receivers for use in
balanced digital multipoint systems.
Safe State Modules enter 'safe state' when they detect system faults. Modules in Safe State put
their I/O in a predefined state and stop all communication in order to avoid disturbing
system integrity.
Salwico Language A text based interpreting language for making logical cause effect expressions
developed by Consilium.
SCI Short Circuit Isolator.
SCM Software Configuration Management.
SCS Single Central System.
SMig system Salwico Safety Management interactive graphics, a PC-based software package
providing graphical presentation and control of the system.
Spur Branch from a loop-line without return.
Stretched central (DCS) A central that is physically distributed to two or more physical locations. One location
may or may not supply power to another location (segmented) and two locations may
or may not have isolated communication lines.
Sub-loop It is possible to connect sub-loop units to some loop units using a sub-loop cable. The
cable is however not a loop. One end is connected to the loop unit and the other end is
connected to the sub-loop unit.
Sub-loop unit A device which cannot be connected directly to the loop. A sub-loop unit can be a
switch or a relay contact will be used to send a fire or fault alarm to the FDS.
Synchronization signal A signal in the Backbone bus that is used for transmitting synchronization signal used
by system modules to synchronize there behaviour.
System A system consists of a number of loop units and one or more centrals.
System bus The communication bus used for connecting multi-central systems. The System bus is
used for inter-central communication but can also be used for external communication.
If inter-central communication redundancy is required, the system bus will consist of a
primary and a secondary System bus.
TBD To Be Done, To Be Decided/Determined.
Terminal A Terminal is a physical point of connection, compare I/O pin.
Test condition Detectors put in the Test condition (or test mode) are inhibited from generating the
Alarm condition but the alarms are displayed on the Control panels to prove that the
tested detectors are operational.
USB Universal Serial Bus, a communications bus that may be used to connect flash
memories, keyboards, mice or other devices.
Warning Condition The state of the system when a warning is detected. Warnings are not as serious as
faults and only of informative nature, for example in case of a lightly contaminated
detector.
Zone A group of detectors located in a geographical area.
