1 Operation range and location
1.1 Operation range
FIREBEAM Xtra detectors can be installed at three distance ranges:
•7-70-m (detector + prims)
•70-140m (Detector + 4 prisms)
•140-160-m (detector + 9 prisms)

1.2 Location
When installed beneath a flat ceiling (where the level of the high part of the ceiling is not
60-cm higher than its lower part), the FireBeam detector can be installed at a level of 30-
60cm below the highest point on the ceiling, at a level up to up to 40-m from the floor.
The detection area is up to 7.5-m on both sides of the beam.
If the ceiling is sloped, install the detector 30-60cm beneath the highest point on the
ceiling. The beam width will be extended by 1% for each degree of ceiling slope.
Install the detector on a solid and stable structure.
Install the detector at a level of 2.7-m minimum from the floor, to prevent the passage of
people and equipment through the beam.
Also take into account the traffic of vehicles (forklift trucks) through the beam, as
relevant.
The detector location and installation distances will comply with these technical
instructions or Israeli Standard IS 1220, part 3, the stricter of the two.
!
Warning
Prevent solar radiation from directly entering the detector.
2 Installation
2.1 Installation of the detector head
Determine the location of detector installation. It is important to install it on a stable wall
at a level of 30-60-cm beneath the ceiling and at a distance of 50-cm minimum from an
adjacent wall.
Ensure a direct line of sight between the detector and point where the prism that refracts
the beam is installed.

Connect the detector head to its base by connecting the connector and tightening it to
the base with the Allen key supplied with the detector.
2.2 Installation of the control unit
Install the control unit at a suitable level, taking into account accessibility and
convenience considerations.
Insert the control unit through the screws holes outside the rubber seat. Wire to the
detector using the color connector.

2.4 Alignment
Detector initialization.
The Firebeam detector initialization is an easy process.
Check that the installation is properly completed, according to the installation
instructions, and that the path of the laser beam to the reflector is free from
interferences.
The first stage is setting the language and the speed mode.
1. Important: the cover has to be removed from the reflector. The beam cannot be
started when the reflector is exposed.
2. Switch on the detector. FirebeamXtra will appear on the screen. The displayed
screen will be as follows:
3. Entre the menu by pressing Enter " "
4. The first screen you will see will be "English" . If you wish to
change language, use the right and left buttons to select the desired language.
When you finish selecting the desired language, press Enter.
5. Press Enter. The Normal Fast screen will be displayed. In most cases, it is
recommended to use Fast Mode (in Normal Mode, the system uses 3.5 mA and
in Fast Mode, it uses 17 mA). If you have no current limitations, it is preferable to
use Fast Mode to shorten the process. Fast Mode is 4 times quicker than Normal
Mode.
Use the right and left buttons to select between normal and fast mode. The *
(asterisk) indicates the selected mode. Press Enter to continue.
Beam alignment
6. The next screen is the Pre-alignment screen, the most important part in the
configuration of the beam detector settings.
The beam alignment defines the received signal strength for the distance
covered by the device, and provides a warning in case of reflections from
undesired sources.
7. Press Enter to start the beam alignment, as stated, with no reflector.

The receiver sensitivity adjustment starts by going up to 100%, and then the
output power is increased to 100%. Additional output power is provided if
necessary to cover the distance, and the said levels are reduced when an
automatic alignment process takes place. The air quality at this point has to
remain at 0%.
8. Press Enter to confirm the beam pre-alignment and settings, press the right
button and enter a manual alignment mode.
The Firebeam detector searches for the far wall of the building. In case of
installations with short distances, FireBeam will stop raising the infrared beam
intensity. In such cases, you can press Enter to confirm the alignment, and then
press the right button and Enter to enter a manual adjustment mode.
Caution: If a free radius of 50-cm is impossible, and the detector beam is
obstructed by objects, the IR intensity will stop increasing and the beam
alignment will be stopped when the beam conducts a wrong calculation, as in the
case of striking the far wall. In this case, the obstacle has to be removed or the
detector location/alignment have to be adjusted. The following figure presents an
example for an obstacle in the beam path.
Obstacles next to the upper part of the beam will interfere with the alignment
process, therefore you must make sure there is no solid object close to the beam
path.
Ensure a free range along the beam of 1.50-m from the reflector ends.
If the wall on which the reflector is placed is shiny or made of glass, a surface in
the size of 1-m. made of a non-reflecting material like MDF, has to be installed on
it to allow correct operation.
Manual alignment
At the completion of pre-alignment of the beam, enter a manual alignment mode.

9. Now locate or expose the reflector.
When you install or expose the reflector, the AQ value will increase to 135%.
This means that the beam detects the reflector. Press Enter to go to Auto
Alignment.
As long as there is a signal in the range of 80-100%, as the ideal value is above
100%, you can go to the next stage –auto alignment.
If the AQ does not significantly increase, use the left, right, up and down buttons
to move the detector eyes to the reflector. When properly placed, the AQ will be
significantly higher.
The detector can move by maximum 5 degrees by using the various direction
arrows. To make sure that the detector detects the reflector, cover the reflector.
The AQ will be significantly reduced.
Auto alignment
10. When the value of AQ is higher than 100%, manually press Enter to exit manual
mode and then press Enter to enter Auto Alignment mode.
Auto alignment is an automatic process that first reduces the sensitivity and
beam intensity, in order to achieve optimal settings, by the installation
environment.
The detector is automatically aligned to the center of the reflector. You can see
that axes X and Y move when the detector moves up, down, left and right.
When the detector finishes the process, Align Complete will be displayed. Press
Enter to confirm. The message Air Quality 100% Status –Normal will be
displayed.
Caution: This process can take 10 minutes. If the detector does not complete the
process after 10 minutes, check axes X and Y and make sure that the beam is
directed to the reflector and that there is no obstacle in the beam path.
Axes X and Y have to be below 1.5 each, and below 0.9 in normal state.
If this is not the case, start manual alignment and return the axes to 0.00 (Reset)
and remove any interfering object.

2.5 Inspection
Two tests have to be carried out to ensure the correct detector alignment:
"FIRE"TEST
Alarm - Cover the detector gradually and make sure that
the air quality is up to 70%. Cover the reflector with a
piece of cardboard. After 10 seconds the detector should
activate a fire alarm and a red LED will be lit.
PRISM INSPECTION TO ENSURE THAT THE BEAM IS
REFLECTED TO THE DETECTOR
Cover the prims entirely and quickly. If the beam is well
aligned, an error message will be displayed after 10
seconds. The yellow fault lamp on the detector head and
on the control unit will be flashing and the word FAULT
will be displayed.
3 Screens and menus
This screen is displayed when the beam is aligned.
The air quality is below the alarm threshold.
If the detector is set to latching alarm, you have to reset the
detector's alarm mode by Alarm Reset.
Reset can be conducted also by cutting off the power for 5
seconds. If automatic initialization was set, the detector will
initialize to normal mode automatically.
The beam path is completely blocked within 1 second (when
used to check for faults).
