Introduction
The Discovery analogue addressable panels are a powerful yet user-friendly series of control panels. They are designed to a high standard with LPCB approval to EN54, parts 2 & 4. Each panel in this modular series has considerable processing ability but is easy to install, programme and operate. This is supported by comprehensive support documentation. Panels are housed in steel enclosures and are finished in hardwearing epoxy paint.
This panel is ideally suited to installations which require very complex sounder and control/shutdown functions. The panels are programmable to meet individual site requirements by means of a cause & effect matrix. This is downloaded from a PC, using the Cause & Effect Edit Programme. Text may be edited via a keyboard or downloaded from a PC.
The Discovery has a 4 line x 20 character backlit LCD display, showing the first and most recent event. Other events may be reviewed using the More Messages facility. User controls are accessed by means of keyswitch-enabled membrane controls, with password protection for engineer purposes. Each panel has a high level of processing power and each loop has its own processor. The panel allows up to 126 addresses per loop. All addresses on a loop may be used for output functions, with 3 independently programmable output bits per address.
By using Apollo Discovery detectors, the system may be configured to automatically switch between heat and smoke detection at selected times of day or week. Additional facilities are also provided for temporary switching between smoke and heat detection to suit short-term changes in environmental conditions.
Up to 248 user-definable panel inputs and relay/two-stage alarm outputs can be provided via expansions boards. Many useful testing and service functions are also provided. All events may be recorded on the optional printer and 32 zonal indications are included as standard with an option for 96 zonal indications. There is a complete range of compatible accessories available to support the Discovery panels to meet most customer requirements. The addition of a network card to the panel will allow monitoring, indication and control of the functions of a networked installation, allowing signals to be distributed around a large site.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The voyager analogue addressable panel is available as a 1-4 loop panel using plug-in loop driver cards. Each loop is rated at 500mA and will control up to 126 Apollo XP95 or Discovery devices. All addresses may be configured as cause/effect outputs, with up to 255 different programmable groups and 3 independently programmable output bits per address. Discovery mode changes are configured by the panel's internal clock and may differentiate between weekday and weekend functions. Loop inputs may also be configured to change selected loop devices between modes where temporary mode changes are required. Panels are housed in well-designed enclosures and are finished in a hard-wearing epoxy paint.
The motherboard electronics are fixed to a detachable chassis thus facilitating a completely empty enclosure for first fix installation. Top entry knockouts and rear entry knockouts are designed to assist with cable installation.
The motherboard electronics are fixed to a detachable chassis thus facilitating a completely empty enclosure for first fix installation. Top entry plastic grommets, bottom/rear entry plastic grommets (for mains) and rear entry knockouts are designed to assist with cable installation.
The discovery has a 4 line x 20 character backlit LCD display, showing device address, zone, type, status and location text. The LCD display is also used as a menu-driven engineers' configuration display. User controls are accessed by means of keyswitch enabled membrane controls, with password protection for engineer purposes.
32 zonal LEDs are available as standard and an optional "plug-in" printer may be supplied.
The panel provides 2 common fire changeover relays and 1 common fault changeover relay, each rated at 1A, 30V DC. Five open collector inputs are provided for remote silence, remote reset, remote evacuate, remote fault and class change. The evacuate input will operate the general alarms and may be programmed to operate the fire relay.
The discovery panel may control up to 14 repeaters with full user capability via RS485 data comms.
Extensive panel and network cause/effect programming is achieved via the PC programming package.
Full networking with other voyager or discovery panels, integra network repeaters and graphics package may be achieved with an additional plug-in network driver card. Network cause/effect may be programmed between voyager panels, discovery panels and active integra network repeaters.
