Ethernet network application
FireWorks can communicate with EST3 and EST3X control panels over an Ethernet network (LAN or WAN).
Notes
•
When connecting FireWorks over a standard network to an EST3 or EST3X control panel with no firefighter
interface, the FireWorks connection is considered ancillary, meaning that it cannot have common controls
capability with the control panel.
•
When connecting FireWorks over a network to an EST3 or EST3X control panel that has a firefighter
interface, the FireWorks can have common controls capability with the control panel. This is a fire-only
UL/ULC proprietary application and is not suitable for UL/ULC security applications.
Figure 46 shows a typical Ethernet network application.

Redundant communication applications
Redundant serial communications
In redundant serial communications, FireWorks uses two serial ports to connect to the fire alarm system. If the
primary port connection breaks, FireWorks can still communicate using the redundant port connection.
Figure 47 shows a redundant serial connection to the same control panel. For better survivability, connect the
primary port and the redundant port to separate control panels.
