This document can be used with FPII installed on the 4100ES, 4100U, 4100, 4010ES, 4120, and

4020-Series Fire Alarm Systems. Table 1 lists SafeLINC FPII Product ID numbers (PIDs) and the

The Fire Panel Internet Interface (SafeLINC FPII) is a module that interfaces to a 4100ES, 4100U,

4100, 4010ES, 4120, or 4020 Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP), and it provides the following:

• Ability to access FACP data using the Internet Explorer (IE) 5.0+ web browser in conjunction

with a Win98, ME, NT, or 2000 operating system.

• Ability to send email messages for prioritized event notification and scheduled email of

Dirty/Excessively Dirty detector status information. (The SafeLINC FPII functions as an

information kiosk that’s accessible via the Internet rather than as a remote annunciator.)

• Ability to email reports for TrueAlarm

®

Sensor Status, TrueAlarm Sensor Service, and

historical logs (fire alarm, Priority 2 alarm, trouble, and supervisory) on demand or via a

schedule (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly).

This publication describes how to:

• Install the SafeLINC FPII card.

• Configure the SafeLINC FPII for operation on your local network.

• Configure the SafeLINC FPII Administrative Account.

• Configure the SafeLINC FPII to send email.

• Use the SafeLINC FPII.

Notes:

• It is strongly recommended that both your operating system and web browser contain

the latest patch updates.

• The SafeLINC FPII is for ancillary use only and does not provide any fire alarm or

burglary function other than reporting of system status.

humidity at 90° F (32° C).

Effective Operating Temperature Range ……. 32° to 120° F (0° C to 49° C), assuming 41° F

(5° C) rise in FACP cabinet.

Effective Operating Humidity Range ……….. 10 to 93% relative humidity (±2%)

non-condensing at 90° F (32° C) (±2°).

SafeLINC FPII power is supplied from system FACP 24 V. On-board power supplies include

This section describes how to configure the SafeLINC FPII card using DIP switches and jumpers.

DIP switch SW2 is used to set the SafeLINC FPII card’s communications to either 4020/RUI-

Style, 4100/4120 Legacy, or 4100U/4100ES/4010ES-Style communications. Set the DIP switch

according to the illustration.

IMPORTANT: For proper communications, recheck the SW2 settings before applying

power.

Use P10, P11, P14 and P15 to set the SafeLINC FPII card’s incoming protocol. Verify that P10,

P11, P14 and P15 are all set to Positions 1 and 2. You should not have to change the positions

because they are set to Positions 1 and 2 by default from the factory.

The device address is set via DIP Switch SW4, which is a bank of eight switches. From left to

right (see Figure 3 below), these switches are designated as SW4-1 through SW4-8. The function

of these switches is as follows:

• SW4-1. This switch sets the baud rate for the internal communications line running between

the card and the FACP CPU. Set this switch to ON for 9600 baud communication.

• SW4-2 through SW4-8. These switches set the card’s address within the FACP. Refer to

Table 2 for a complete list of the switch settings for all of the possible card addresses.

The SafeLINC FPII card can be mounted to the 4100ES, 4100U, 4100, 4010ES, 4120, or 4020

systems. The mounting in each case is different. Refer to the appropriate topic in this section,

depending on which fire alarm system you are using.

The SafeLINC FPII assembly is to be mounted on the PDI in a 4100U/4100ES expansion bay

(Figure 4). The card should be mounted to the left-most position on the PDI connector as Figure 4

illustrates.

Use the connector on the backside of the SafeLINC FPII card to connect to the bay as shown in

Figure 4, below.

In either a 4100 or a 4120 system, the SafeLINC FPII takes up two 2-inch slots. Secure the

assembly to the mounting rails as shown below.

Mount the card to the left-most position on the mounting rails (if possible).

IMPORTANT: The 637-591 Bracket must be mounted to the 4100/4120 mounting rails

before the SafeLINC FPII card is mounted.

The SafeLINC FPII card can connect to a 4020 as shown in Figure 9. This illustration shows the

SafeLINC FPII card connected to MAPNET Interface Board via Harness 733-693 and the 4020

Power & Comms Connector P2. This is an example of one connection to the 4020. If the

MAPNET Interface Board is unavailable for power and communications, you will need to connect

to another 4020 board. Instead of the MAPNET Interface Board, you also can connect Harness

733-693 from the SafeLINC FPII’s P2 connector to the Standard Slave Card (P6, P7), Power

Supply Interface Board (P2, P3), 8-Point I/O Board (P9, P10), 2120/RS232 Interface Board (P8,

The SafeLINC FPII contains 3 LEDs to provide user status indication. (See Figure 1 for location

of LEDs.) LED 3, colored yellow, provides trouble status information using blink codes. The

summary of the blink codes (trouble codes) appears in Table 3 below.

LEDs 1 and 2 are used to monitor both the integrity of the network connection (Link Status, Green

LED = LED1) and whether network activity is present (Network Activity, Red LED = LED2) to

and from the SafeLINC FPII.

Network Down (Network Status Check) - Used as a diagnostic to determine if the SafeLINC

FPII can see out onto the connected network, the SafeLINC FPII periodically checks the

customer’s configured gateway (as was configured on the boot prompt) to verify that the

SafeLINC FPII can see the gateway. However, it does not guarantee that the SafeLINC FPII is

fully operational on the network to which it is connected. The frequency of this check is

determined by configuring the Network Status Check under Administration: Security Settings.

Network Disconnected (Network Link Integrity) - The SafeLINC FPII examines the Link

Integrity Bit on the PHY to determine if the Ethernet Cable is plugged into the SafeLINC FPII. If

the cable is plugged into both the Hub/Router/Switch and the SafeLINC FPII, the Green Link

LED (LED1) will light up. There is no configurable option on the web pages for this diagnostic

feature. The SafeLINC FPII checks this at the same interval as configured for Network Down

(Network Status Check Trouble).

Internal Local Loop-Back - Testing the integrity of the onboard connection from the

microprocessor to the Ethernet Connector, the SafeLINC FPII takes an outgoing test packet and

re-routes it internally to the PHY and then back to the microprocessor. This test determines if the

PHY & MAC are operational. Between this test and the Network Disconnected Test (Network

Link Integrity Test), you are reasonably sure that the SafeLINC FPII can communicate on the

network as long as it has been configured properly.

Email Link – Periodically testing for the presence of the email server to see if it is able to accept

messages, this diagnostic logs into the SMTP server and logs out without sending any email

messages. This testing interval is defined under SafeLINC FPII: SafeLINC FPII Administration:

Email Configuration as the Email Health Status Check Interval. This test also checks that the PC

on which the server is running is operational as well as checking that the SMTP server is actually

running, too. Although this test does not check that the remaining network is operational, it does

reasonably ensure that any email message can be delivered to the server successfully.
