RF Fire alarm reporting
RF Fire alarm reporting
(OP)
I'm working on a design for a base wide RF reporting system for fire alarm. They have existing an old Monaco, Mcollough loop system and a king fisher RF system. I'm trying to find a reliable system to use that can replace the Monaco system and incorperate the king fisher system and be eventually incorperated into a complete addressable system back to the central reporting room and displayed to a control computer with actual trouble and alarm ID's without the use of code cards. I've just started the research so any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated





RE: RF Fire alarm reporting
I seem to remember that that the 'digitize' brand (http://www.digitize-inc.com/Products/1221.asp ) is generally compatible with the existing king fisher boxes.
If on the other hand you are replacing the entire central receiving station, I have heard good things lately about the Radionics brand ( www.boschsecurity.us ). I believe that they can transmit a complete copy of the fire alarm panel display (addressable) back to the central station.
Let us know what you decide out of curiosity.
