Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for testing a line-bound transmission path of a security alarm system to unacceptably high resistance by measuring the current on the completed with an end module transmission path and comparison with a setpoint.
  • the invention further relates to a hazard detection system that performs this test method, preferably a system with a central office, to which via a communication bus at least one coupler is connected.
  • Alarm systems have long been designed so that to the alarm panel, in the following "Central”, connected or controlled by the control center, line-bound transmission paths can be monitored for interruption and short circuit, both the lines, the sensors, and in particular detectors, connect to the control center, as well as the lines through which the central actuators, ie z.
  • signalers and / or electromechanical closing and opening devices controls or triggers.
  • Common practice is the quiescent current monitoring, in which the respective spur line is terminated with a resistance of eg 10 kiloohms.
  • the control panel measures the quiescent current on the line in question and compares it with a tolerance field in which the measured current is taking into account the line resistance, the connected sensors and the terminating resistor got to.
  • An excessively low current is interpreted as an inadmissibly high series resistance, in an extreme case as an interruption, an excessively high current as an unacceptably high parallel resistance, in extreme cases as a short circuit.
  • each actuator to the line via a diode and in test mode to feed the line with a DC voltage which is poled such that the diodes of the actuators are in the locked state.
  • the DC supply voltage is reversed.
  • a control circuit which is usually referred to as a bus coupler or simply as a coupler, is connected via a communication bus with the center and can be connected to the more than one monitored line.
  • the coupler of the line in each case imprinted a predetermined current, measures the voltage which is set at the beginning of the line and compares this with a setpoint range. As a result, the comparison provides whether the line is in a proper or faulty state.
  • the method according to the EP-A-1 777 671 on a resistance measurement from the coupler, ie at the beginning of the line.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method and a hazard detection system available to perform such a test.
  • This object is achieved by a method according to claim 1 and a hazard detection system according to claim 2. Further preferred embodiments are disclosed in the independent claims.
  • this object is achieved in that by means of the end module on the transmission a time-dependent as current ramp up to a predetermined value increasing current is generated.
  • the predetermined value is equal to the load current flowing in normal operation, that is to say for actuators connected to the transmission path in the event of an alarm.
  • the end module In order to test the transmission path, ie the line, the end module thus simulates a load which increases in time from a small initial value to a value corresponding to the actual conditions, wherein at the beginning of the line the actual operating voltage, ie a voltage greater than a predetermined one Minimum value is applied. At the same time the tension at the end of the Transmission measured, compared with a defined for the end module setpoint and generates below this setpoint the error message.
  • the method is suitable not only for spur lines but also for ring lines.
  • the end module is then located at the end of the loop remote from the feed port.
  • the end module is preferably located at the end of each stub, but may also be in the coupler when the stub has a two-wire return, so is a total of four wires or if the line is designed as a two-core loop.
  • the end module can transmit the input voltages measured during the current increase as data telegrams, for example to the coupler, which carries out the evaluation.
  • the end module continuously compares the input voltage itself with a stored setpoint value and only transmits a first current response when the setpoint value is exceeded, and a second, second current response that differs from the setpoint value via the line to the coupler.
  • the control panel can put all couplers in test mode at the same time. If more than one line (stub or loop) is connected to a coupler, each of which is terminated with an end module, it is recommended that each of these couplers puts all end modules in test mode at the same time, to ensure that both at the input of the module Kopplers as well as at its outputs, ie the inputs of the connected lines, respectively the same load condition as in normal operation, ie z. B. exists in case of alarm.
  • an end module upon detection of a line fault, ie a voltage dropping below the stored setpoint voltage at its input, maintains the relevant current, ie does not abort the current ramp prematurely upon detection of the line fault.
  • an inadmissibly high line resistance of the connecting line between an external supply voltage source and the coupler can be detected, even if this line resistance does not lead to a drop in the input voltage of the coupler below the minimum value when loaded with the current only of the other end modules or.
  • control center can generate a time window immediately preceding the said time interval, in which the coupler conducts , if applicable, check all lines connected to this coupler for a short circuit.
  • a simple possibility is that the coupler microcontroller switches a series resistor into the line, measures a voltage proportional to the current through the line, compares this with a setpoint value, transmits the data telegram "Error" when the setpoint is exceeded at the control center and if it falls below of the setpoint at the end of the first time window bridges the inserted resistance.
  • the coupler for generating the current-proportional voltage comprises a current measuring resistor with a diode is bridged.
  • the coupler or its microcontroller thus measures the currents through the current measuring resistor, which lead to a voltage drop across the current measuring resistor, which is less than the forward voltage of the diode of z. B. 0.6V is.
  • the coupler can easily distinguish the current responses.
  • the coupler remains backwards compatible with existing alarm systems with an end module in the form of a fixed resistor of z. B. 10 kiloohms, because the caused by this terminating resistor current of eg 1 mA at 10 V produces a lower than the diode forward voltage across the current measuring resistor.
  • the block diagram in Fig. 1 The hazard alarm system shown comprises a control center 1, to which several signaling lines 2.1 to 2.n and via a communication bus 3 bus couplers 4, 4.1 are connected in series.
  • the detection lines 2.1 to 2.n include sensors such as fire detectors, gas detectors or motion detectors (not shown).
  • Each coupler 4, 4.1 has in addition to the communication port an input E, to which a supplied from an external power supply 5 via a line 6, a fuse distributor 7 and a further line 8, 8.1 DC supply voltage with a nominal value of z. B. 15 V is applied.
  • Each coupler 4 has (only by way of example) two outputs A1 and A2. At each output is a stub 9.1, 9.2 a number of actuators 11, z.
  • a relay Rel has a two-pole changeover contact for each output A1 or A2, such as r1, r2 for output A1. In the rest position of the relay Rel the contacts r1, r2 have the drawn position.
  • the microcontroller MK On a sent from the center 1 via the communication bus 3 and the port K command to the microcontroller MK begins a first, z. Time window of e.g. 150 ms duration. In this time window, the coupler checks the stub 9.1 for a short circuit, more precisely to an inadmissibly low parallel resistance Ry.
  • the microcontroller MK includes a switch S1 and thereby loosens a resistor R1 in the power supply of the output A1, d. H.
  • the stub 9.1 which is now fed in relation to the alarm state according to the operating position of the relay Rel reversed polarity, so that all diodes D lock.
  • R1 the line resistance Rx, the end module 10 in the idle state and R2 flows a certain quiescent current.
  • the voltage dropping across R2 is fed via an operational amplifier OP1, which amplifies this voltage in a manner known per se, to an input of the microcontroller MK, which checks whether the measured voltage lies within a desired value range. If the measured voltage and thus the current on the stub 9.1 is unacceptably high, the microcontroller MK opens the switch S1 and sends to the central station 1 a data telegram "error" or a specific data telegram "short circuit".
  • R1 limits the short-circuit current and a diode D1 parallel to R2 limits the voltage drop across R2. If the measured voltage and thus the current during this time window within the allowable range, the microcontroller MK closes a switch S2 and thus bridges the resistor R1.
  • the end module 10 is a current ramp, which is a quiescent current value of z. B. 1 mA to a predetermined final value of z. B. 1 A increases linearly.
  • the end module 10 according to Fig. 3 a microprocessor MP, which receives a supply voltage derived from the DC supply voltage Vdd, via a port a and a voltage divider R6, R4 measures the DC supply voltage of the end module 10 as samples during the current increase and to generate the current ramp at an output port b a pulse width modulated signal with increasing pulse duration supplies that via a low pass TP in a correspondingly changing, z. B. linearly increasing DC voltage is converted via a differential amplifier OP2 at the control electrode of a transistor T, z. B. an N-MOSFET is applied, which is in series with a resistor R5 between the input terminals of the end module 10.
  • the microcontroller MK of the coupler 4 sends the same error signal to the center 1, he in an inadmissible lowering of the DC supply voltage at input E during the first time window to the center 1 sends.
  • the center 1 will accordingly report a fault in the same way and / or initiate a suitable measure, for. B. the coupler 4 or the power supply 5 off.
  • R4 determines that the DC supply voltage at the input of the end module 10 below a predetermined setpoint of z. B. 10 V drops, it stores this result, but drives continue toteurzuberichtn the transistor T, so that for the connected to the other outputs A2, etc. of the coupler 4 stub lines whose end modules generate a corresponding current ramp, the same load conditions exist.
  • the microprocessor MP of the end module 10 at the end of the time interval determines that even at the highest, set via the transistor T load current, the voltage at the input of the end module 10 is equal to or greater than the voltage set as a minimum value of z. B. 10 V, provides the microprocessor MP at port b during a second time window, a constant pulse train with a pulse width corresponding to a first defined current value through the transistor T corresponding to a first current response of the end module 10 via the stub 9.1.
  • the microprocessor MP If, on the other hand, the microprocessor MP has detected a voltage before or at the end of the time interval which is smaller than the nominal value of the DC input voltage, it furnishes at its output b a different, constant pulse sequence which correspondingly generates a different current response of the end module 10.
  • the microcontroller MK of the coupler 4 detects these current responses during the second time window.
  • the microcontroller MK opens the switches S1, S2.
  • the microcontroller MK controls the relay Rel, so that the contacts r1, r2 switch, the DC supply voltage is switched to all outputs A of the coupler 4 with reverse polarity and thus the actuators 11 in Fig. 1 speak to.
  • the microprocessor MP of the end module 10 is programmable via R6, R4 from the control center 1 by means of data telegrams which the microcontroller MK of the coupler 4 converts into voltage pulses on the relevant spur line.
  • FIG. 4a and Fig. 4b illustrate the time-dependent profile of the voltage at the input of the end module 10 and the current on the stub 9.1 during the first time window from t0 to t1, the subsequent time interval from t1 to t2 and the subsequent second time window from t2 to t3.
  • Fig. 4a illustrates the just allowable case, the sinking of the input voltage to 9 V at the end of the time interval, ie at time t2.
  • Fig. 4b shows a possible error case.
  • the coupler 4 starts the short circuit check by closing the switch S1. If the short circuit test does not give an error, the normal operating voltage of 14 V is applied here. About the stub only flows a low quiescent current of z. 1 mA.
  • the end module 10 At the end of the first time window of 150 ms, ie at t1, the end module 10 begins to generate a current ramp, in this example to 1 A after the expiration of a further 150 ms to t2.
  • the microprocessor MP of the end module 10 measures a linear and in the case of Fig. 4a down to the minimum value of 9 V voltage drop at its input. Therefore, the end module generates at the end of this time interval during the second time window of again 150 ms to t3, the first current response with eg 50 mA, corresponding to "okay".
  • the line resistance as in the case of Fig. 4b too high drops the voltage at the input of the end module 10 after about 220 ms to the limit of 9 V.
  • the current remains until t2 to a value of here 500 mA and the input voltage to 9 V.
  • the microprocessor MP of the end module detects this condition as an error and therefore sends in the second time window to the coupler the second current response of eg 2 mA, corresponding to "line resistance too high".
