## 1.06 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

A.  Honeywell Delta 1000 system at the proprietary supervising station
    at Building 829 monitors alarms reported from a Honeywell FS20A or
    FS90 Data Gathering Panel (DGP) located at each protected building
    or group of buildings.

B.  The DGP is a noncoded, zoned system with manual and automatic alarm
    initiation devices with separate individual circuits for each zone
    of fire alarm initiation and notification appliances.

C.  Initiation zones are 4-wire Class A supervised circuits that report
    alarm, trouble, and supervisory signals from initiation devices
    (such as pullstations, smoke detectors, flow switches, tamper
    switches) to the DGP.

D.  Notification appliances (bells, strobes) are 2-wire Class B
    supervised circuits that activate to evacuate building(s) upon
    receipt of an alarm signal.

E.  Miscellaneous control circuits may be activated (such as smoke
    removal fans, dampers, door holders, elevator recall) upon receipt
    of an alarm signal.

F.  DGP reports signal data to proprietary supervising station at
    Building 829 Telephone Switch Building over dedicated Fire Alarm
    Reporting System (FARS) phone lines to one of two Central Processing
    Units (CPUs)

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
1.  The CPUs are connected to two Honeywell Delta Net Professional
    Computers (DPCs) that relay alarm and system information to computer
    terminals at the KAFB Fire Station at Wyoming and \"F\" Streets and
    the Sandia Security Headquarters Communication Center (HCC) at
    Buildings 802 and 956.

2.  The alarm and action messages indicate the building number, tech
    area location, zone number, zone description (by floor, wing, etc.),
    hazard description, and fire department dispatch information.

## 1.07 SEQUENCING AND SCHEDULING

A. Complete work according to the sequence of work described below.

1.  Install new conduit runs and other new equipment that will not
    disrupt existing equipment, as far as practical.

    and tape new wires in DGP for termination by a Honeywell
    representative.

3.  When modifying existing initiation or notification appliance
    circuits, contact SCO to schedule blockout of the impacted circuits
    to minimize disruption of fire alarm system.

4.  Upon completion of work, contact Honeywell representative to install
    required DGP components, terminate wiring, and perform required DGP
    programming to communicate with the proprietary supervising station
    in Building 829.

5.  Upon completion of work, demonstrate in presence of Honeywell
    representative and SCO the proper operation of: DGP, each alarm
    initiating device, each notification appliance, each control
    function, each ancillary system actuation, ground fault condition,
    power failure, battery stand-by, and other appropriate tests to
    verify that fire alarm system performs in accordance with this
    Section and manufacturer\'s data. Document test results on the "Fire
    Alarm System Operational Test Checklist" included in Attachments of
    this Section, and provide copy to SCO.

7.  Contact SCO to request acceptance testing by Sandia Fire Alarm
    Maintenance personnel. SCO will complete "Request for Fire Alarm
    System Acceptance Testing" form, included in the Attachments of this
    Section, and provide a copy of completed "Fire Alarm System
    Operational Test Checklist" to Planner for the Sandia Fire Alarm
    Maintenance organization.

8.  Sandia Fire Alarm Maintenance personnel will perform acceptance
    testing of fire alarm system in presence of Contractor, the
    Honeywell representative and Sandia Fire Protection Engineering.

B. Interruption of Existing Fire Alarm System

1\. Do not interrupt existing fire alarm system without first obtaining
written permission from the Sandia Delegated Representative (SCO) not
less than 24 hours prior to such interruptions. Contractor shall make
every effort to keep existing fire alarm system on line until the new
system is operational. This may be accomplished by requesting blockouts
from Sandia Fire Alarm Maintenance to jumper out only those areas where
Contractor is involved in his work.

2\. Proceed continuously and expeditiously with work to be performed
during the interruption until the system is restored to service. When
requesting permission to interrupt service, specifically state the work
to be performed, with the exact time and length of service interruption.
Request separate permission for each interruption.

3\. Post temporary sign (\"ATTENTION -- In Case of Fire Call 911\") on
each new or existing pullstation during such times that it is installed
but not in service. Refer to Attachments of this Section for sample sign
that can be photocopied to use as notification.

4\. Coordinate all work concerning active portions of fire protection
systems with the SCO to prevent false alarms and avoid unnecessary loss
of protection.

5\. Maintain existing fire alarms in service during non-standard working
hours and over weekends. If unable to do so, notify SCO.

C. As new equipment is installed, label it "NOT IN SERVICE" until it is
accepted and placed in-service.

D.  Remove existing disconnected fire alarm equipment and restore
    damaged surfaces. Package and deliver unused functional fire alarm
    equipment to the Fire Alarm Maintenance Supervisor.
