Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an addressable emergency illumination system and an addressable fire detection system using visual alarm devices.
  • VADs must produce sufficiently intense light, so that an individual located anywhere in the space, looking either towards or away from the VAD, would be alerted in the event of an emergency.
  • VADs The performance of VADs is assessed against a minimum required illumination of 0.4 lux on surfaces perpendicular to the direction of the light emitted from the device.
  • Conventional addressable alarm systems typically comprise a number of detectors, such as smoke or heat detectors, a number of alarm sirens, and/or a number of visual alarm devices.
  • Each device forms part of an electrical circuit commonly known as a loop, the ends of the loop being connected to a central control panel.
  • the devices each have a unique address code which is known to the control panel and, using these address codes, bi-directional communication between a control panel and individual devices on the loop is possible.
  • the control panel is thus able to better assess the likelihood that the device has activated needlessly, thus reducing the incidence of unwanted activation of sirens, water sprinklers and other emergency apparatus.
  • EP 575,175 describes a method of communication between a control panel and a beacon using Quaternary Mark Space (QMS) coding to deliver messages using modulation of a voltage waveform to encode the messages.
  • QMS Quaternary Mark Space
  • an addressable emergency illumination system or addressable fire detection system comprises a control section and at least one emergency light or visual alarm device, wherein the control section is operable to send power to the at least one emergency light or visual alarm device, is operable to control illumination of the at least one emergency light or visual alarm device and is operable to program lighting parameters of the at least one emergency light or visual alarm device.
  • emergency light and visual alarm device can be used interchangeably, so a reference to one can be used as a reference to the other.
  • the control section may be operable to control illumination or coverage volume of the at least one emergency light or visual alarm device.
  • the lighting parameters may include output level, or brightness, of the at least one emergency light, illumination characteristics, such as illumination period, of the at least one emergency light, action on presence detection in the vicinity of the at least one emergency light.
  • the lighting parameters may include a setting of the ambient light level or illumination volume for at least one emergency light.
  • the configuration parameters may include output level, output power setting, and scene selection setting of the at least one emergency light.
  • the control parameters may include action on presence detection in the vicinity of the at least one emergency light.
  • the configuration parameters may include coverage volume of the at least one visual alarm device.
  • the at least one emergency light may be addressable, preferably individually, by the control section.
  • the at least one emergency light may include at least one energy storage means (i.e. battery or capacitor) for powering functions of the at least one emergency light.
  • at least one energy storage means i.e. battery or capacitor
  • the at least one emergency light may include an energy storage means, which may be a capacitor, a super-capacitor or a battery for storing charge supplied to the at least one emergency light by the control section.
  • an energy storage means which may be a capacitor, a super-capacitor or a battery for storing charge supplied to the at least one emergency light by the control section.
  • the control section may be operable to control the at least one emergency light to return status information to the control section.
  • the status information may include a current charge status of a battery of the at least one emergency light and/or a light output level of the at least one emergency light, action on presence detection in the vicinity of the at least one emergency light and /or a current operating state, e.g. normal or emergency, of the at least one emergency light.
  • an emergency light or visual alarm device comprising lighting means and power storage means, wherein the emergency light or visual alarm device is operable to receive power from a control section of an associated emergency illumination system or fire system and wherein the emergency light is operable to receive illumination control commands and lighting parameter commands from the control section.
  • the at least one emergency light or visual alarm device may include a battery for powering functions of the at least one emergency light.
  • a multiplexed communications system for an emergency signalling system is shown in Figure 4 .
  • the system comprises a control panel 10 with a two-wire signalling link 12 supplying power to and communicating data with multiple devices 14a-d connected to it.
  • the system has been fundamentally designed to be implemented in an Analogue Addressable Fire Alarm system. It can, however, be used for other two-wire communications systems where there is a control panel which powers and communicates bi-directionally to a number of devices (an addressable emergency lighting system, for example).
  • Devices 14a-d are connected to the control panel 10 in circuits called loops 12.
  • the maximum number of devices 14a-d on a loop is defined by factors such as current consumption, length and characteristics of transmission line, and data polling rate.
  • the control panel 10 communicates with devices 14a-d by applying time encoded voltage pulses to the loop circuit(s) 12. Each device 14a-d decodes these signals and acts on the information contained therein. Devices 14a-d communicate in response by applying time encoded current pulses to the loop circuit 12 which the control panel 10 decodes.
  • Devices 14a-d are programmed with a unique serial number at the stage of manufacture. This serial number is the means by which the control panel 10 can individually communicate with each device 14a-d.
  • the control panel 10 transmits data to all devices 14a-d simultaneously by switching the loop 12 voltage between two levels at accurately defined intervals. Information is efficiently time encoded using QMS signalling.
  • Data from a specific device 14a-d is communicated to the control panel 10 by means of a series of current pulses. These current pulses are returned both synchronously and asynchronously, depending on the mode of communication.
  • Loop QMC transmit signalling
  • the control panel 10 TRANSMITS data on the loop 12 as time encoded voltage pulses switched between two levels Vm (Mark voltage) and Vs (Space voltage) as shown in Figure 1 .
  • Devices 14a-d connected across a two-wire loop 12 communicate data to the control panel 10 by switching in a current source directly across the loop 12 to generate a current pulse for a period of 200 ⁇ s.
  • This current pulse is sensed by the control panel 10 and decoded as a logical '1' by its presence and as a logical '0' by its absence, as shown in figure 2 .
  • the length of a tr pulse is typically 400 ⁇ s, but may vary between 370 ⁇ s and 560 ⁇ s.
  • Bits D7 to D0, followed by Parity and Stop are then applied to the loop 12, each of which is 200 ⁇ s in duration.
  • the system uses a defined protocol for construction of all loop transmissions, detailed in figure 3 .
  • the phases of transmission common to all communications are the Start Frame, with a length of typically 2000 ⁇ s and minimum and maximum of 1800 ⁇ s and 2400 ⁇ s respectively.
  • the vectored priority interrupt (VPI) slot has a typical length of 750 ⁇ s with a minimum and maximum of 655 ⁇ s and 845 ⁇ s respectively, and the control message, followed by the checksum.
  • the start frame is used to allow loop outstations (devices 14a-d) to detect the start of a new message
  • the VPI slot is used to allow devices 14a-d to asynchronously interrupt a standard loop polling sequence and the message number is used to define what data is being sent, or requested from the loop device.
  • the protocol system has been further developed for use in an addressable emergency lighting system, which controls luminaires/beacons 14a-d.
  • This system uses multiple lighting luminaires/beacons 14a-d which are communicated to individually using the above protocol. To maintain backward compatibility extra control messages have been allocated to communicate with lighting devices 14a-d only. At the moment the following messages have been devised, but further messages will be required:
  • An example emergency beacon 14a is shown in Figure 5 .
  • the beacon 14a is programmable using the protocol outlined above, including the commands mentioned in the amendment above.
  • the emergency lighting beacon includes high capacity energy storage device e.g. a super capacitor 16, i.e. a capacitor with a high capacitance for storing charge supplied by the control panel 10.
  • This high capacity energy storage device e.g. capacitor 16 has been found to address the problem of pulsing power to an emergency beacon when an alarm condition require the beacon to flash.
  • the capacitor allows a low voltage system to slowly charge the capacitor 16 when the alarm condition is not present and to discharge the amount of power required to illuminate the beacon 14a to a required output.
  • the European Standard EN54 Part 23 requires a specified lumen output of an emergency beacon for a given volume that it covers.
  • the system and beacons disclosed herein provide a use application in the standard.
  • the low voltage charging and the ability to control the required output of the beacon 14a is advantageous, because the required output of a beacon can be outside the scope of existing systems in terms of the power they can supply.
  • the required output of a beacon can be dictated by the environment, such as a ceiling height when the beacon 14a is attached to a ceiling. Therefore the ability to program the beacon 14a from the control panel 10 is very beneficial, especially in view of the number of beacons that may be controlled by the panel 10.
  • control panel 10 It is possible to operate the control panel 10 to send details of a volume to be illuminated by the beacon 14a and use programmable circuitry (programmed at manufacture or during installation or when connected to the control panel) in the beacon 14a to determine a light output required. A level of ambient light detected by the beacon 14a may also be used to determine the output of the beacon 14a.
