System Overview

 

 

 

 

The FPA-1000 Analog Addressable Fire Panels are advanced analog addressable control

 

 

panels for small to large facilities in residential, commercial or public building applications.

 

 

Optional networking cards allow multiple panels to be interconnected into a networked

 

 

system. The network acts as if it were a single panel for purposes of communication. In other

 

 

words, an alarm signal received by any panel in the network is communicated to all the panels

 

 

in the network.

 

 

 

 

Based on communication connection mode, there are three types of networking cards

 

 

available:
