Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 21, Equipment for fire protection and fire
fighting, Subcommittee SC 3, Fire detection and alarm systems.

revised.

ISO 7240-2:2017(E)

Introduction
The fire detection control and indication function (ISO 7240-1:2014, Figure 1, item B), within a fire
detection and alarm system (FDAS) installed in and around buildings, is provided by the fire detection
control and indicating equipment (FDCIE).
FDCIE receives signals from the fire detection function (ISO 7240-1:2014, Figure 1, item A) and the
manual initiating function (ISO 7240-1:2014, Figure 1, item D). FDCIE processes received signals and
may indicate information at the FDCIE and/or send signals to other functions within the fire detection
and alarm system. The signals are used to provide notification to building occupants and other parties
responsible for building safety in accordance with the design objectives for the fire detection and alarm
system (see also ISO 7240-14 or equivalent national design standard).
This document is drafted on the basis of mandatory functions, which are provided on all fire detection
control and indicating equipment, and optional functions (with requirements) which may be provided.
It is intended that the options be used for specific applications, and to meet the fire detection and alarm
system design objectives. Each optional function is included as a separate entity, with its own set of
associated req
