Det-Tronics EQ3000 Eagle Quantum Premier (V1.0) - Manual

DESCRIPTION
The Eagle Quantum ™ Premier Controller is a micropro-
cessor based module that performs all the communica-
tion and control functions for the fire and gas system.
The controller is approved as an annunciation and
releasing device for fire alarm systems.
The Local Operating Network/Signaling Line Circuit
(LON/SLC), through which all field devices communi-
cate, starts and ends its loop at the Controller. The
Controller continuously monitors the field devices on the
LON/SLC and performs the logic functions needed to
generate the appropriate output(s).
The Controller performs both static and user pro-
grammable logic operations. Static logic activates built-
in annunciation circuits, consisting of both visible and
audible alarms, per ANSI NFPA 72.
Programmable logic allows the Controller to be cus-
tomized to perform a variety of complex logic opera-
tions. Using Det-Tronics Safety System Software (S3),
the Controller can be programmed to implement any
cross-zone monitoring, voting, or timed operations that
might be needed in a fire suppression system.
The Controller is used in conjunction with Det-Tronics
software to configure the system as well as to provide
information on an ongoing basis to external systems
such as PLCs and DCSs. A dedicated RS-232 serial
port is provided for system configuration. The Controller
also has an RS-485 port that communicates using the
MODBUS RTU protocol. An optional dual media
ControlNet
™ board is available and provides Allen
Bradley compatibility.
The Controller features an on-board audible alarm for
local notification, as well as 12 LEDs for indicating sys-
tem status conditions. A vacuum fluorescent text dis-
play indicates the current status of the system, including
address, tag number and device status. In addition, the
Controller generates the heartbeat signal that tests for
LON/SLC integrity, provides time and date information
to field devices, and monitors for the presence of all
configured field devices.
