1 Introduction
FIREscape is an addressable intelligent emergency lighting single point system that utilizes LED technology
and low voltage SHEILDED cabling. The system is fully monitored and is controlled using up to 8 keypads (EL-
KP) per system and / or PC interface
The system monitors every mains lighting circuit by use of a phase monitor. This device triggers the initial signal
of 240v power loss to a mains lighting circuit via its communications line interfaced to the EL2 emergency
lighting control panel.
The EL2 control panel is powered by a Mains Transformer (EL 35V) that takes the 240v input from the mains
supply and converts it to 35V 220VA
Each EL2 panel runs 2 x 40v digital communications lines with each line having a capacity of up to 127 devices
or 254 per panel which can consist of a mixture of Emergency exit lights, exit signs and I/O modules. (max and
min line population is ascertained by use of a line calculator)
All luminaires are intelligent and given an address on the system to be easily identified. This address consists of
a line number and a device number.
The Hochiki FIREscape range includes 16 meter to 24-meter range of emergency exit signs with the ability to
be either wall or ceiling mounted, single sided or double sided.
The emergency escape luminaires also come in various transverse C0 and longitudinal C90 planes to best suit
building specific applications including a high powered option. All emergency escape luminaires and exits signs
are intelligent and equipped with an integral battery which once fully charged will allow the luminaire/sign to
operate for a minimum of 3 hours under a mains power failure.
All luminaires and signs fit onto a Hochiki EL-TSB magnetic test switch base for easy installation and local
operation.
The Hochiki FIREscape emergency lighting and exit system has an automatic testing facility performed weekly
in accordance with AS2293 and a manual test facility that continuously monitors battery and luminaire
performance that can be controlled through the systems keypad
The Hochiki FIREscape emergency lighting system has the ability to interface to third party products and
available with a graphics package

2 Overview
This guide covers the installation of the FIREscape system featuring the EL-2 Emergency
Lighting Control Panel
Figure 1 - FIREscape System
3 Standards
The system implements device tests, fault monitoring and reporting conformant to Australian
standards AS2293.
3.1 Cables and Cable Screen
The cable type must be shielded cable. All calculations in this guide use a 1.5mm² conductor diameter
and.
The insulation resistance between the conductors and building earth must be >1 M. If the insulation
resistance is smaller, uncontrolled ground currents will transfer to the system and cause interference.
Problems are caused, for example, when the shield cable is terminated to metal installation boxes, which are
bonded to the building earth.
All shield cables must be connected to the control panel housing. Similarly, the shield cable at the keypad end
must be connected to connector pin S (shield). The shield cable must have continuity via the connection point of
each mounting base on the lighting lines.
The cable between the transformer and the control panel must be of the MSK 2 x 1mm type. The cable must be
less than 1m long. The cable is delivered with the control panel.

3.2 Installation Environment
The operating environment of the system and its connected components must be considered at the design
stage prior to installation
4 Panel Housing
4.1 Installation
The weight of the control panel is approximately 8 kg, including 1 x 7 Ah battery. The weight of the control panel
must be considered when for wall mounting. The cable between the control panel and the transformer must not
exceed 1 m. The cable is provided with the control panel.
Figure 2 - An example installation
Drill 4 x 6mm holes for the mounting plugs. The hole depth must be 20–25 mm. Refer to
Figure 3 on page 8 for the location of the holes. Once drilled, insert appropriate fixing plugs.

FIREscape System Installation Manual
Page 10 of 56
Figure 3 - Fixing Hole Template
Insert 4 x 2mm screws into theplugs.
Lift the control panel housing to the wall and guide the screws into the screw grooves in the
housing.
Tighten the screws.
Route the cables between the wall and the panel housing and then through the cable aperturein to the
panel housing.Shorten the cables to a suitablelength.
Strip the cables ready forconnection.
The insulation resistance must be measured before connecting the cableconnectors.

FIREscape System Installation Manual
NOTE: The aperture at the bottom of the housing is for the transformer cable. The apertures at the top of the
housing are for other cables.
Figure 4 - Measuring Insulation Resistance
The insulation resistance is measured for each conductor, including the shield, against the building earth. The
insulation resistance must be >1 MΩ.
After this, the cable shield can be connected to the shield connection, see Figure 4 on page 9.
5 EL-KP Keypad
5.1 Overview
EL-KP keypad(s) are used to control and interact with the emergency lighting system. A maximum of 8 keypads
can be connected to the system. The keypads are rear entry only by connection and connect directly to the
CPN serial communication port of the motherboard.
A 4 core cable plus SHEILD is required for the connection of a keypad to the control panel. The keypad can be
powered directly from a local power supply or the control panel’s auxiliary supply. The local power supply must
be double-insulated without need for grounding and must have battery backup. When using any other type of
power supply, the RS485 traffic between the control panel and the keypad must be isolated with the EL-ISOL.
NOTE: When using separate power supplies without the EL-ISOL card, the negative leads of the power
supplies must be connected with the negative leads of the control panel.

FIREscape System Installation Manual
The keypads are connected in parallel to the serial communication bus. The cabling can be a star
(through a central node) or ring (through each device). The units do not have to be addressed sequentially.
Figure 11 - EL-KP Keypad Connectivity
NOTE: The maximum length of the data bus is 500m.
When calculating the voltage drop, the maximum power consumption of the keypad must be used.
