Main characteristics
The MEDEA intrusion alarm systems are modular, suitable for small - mid-sized systems in residential,
industrial, and service settings.
According to the final configuration, the systems are certified in Grade 2 or 3 according to EN 50131.
Keypads, readers and expansion modules are connected to the control panel microprocessor by an RS485
field bus. Detectors, sirens, and other signals are connected to the inputs and outputs present in the control
panels and in other devices connected to the bus. Additional devices can be connected to the control
panels through radio-frequency connections. See paragraph 1.5 System connectivity for information on
connectivity.
All the inputs can be configured by type and specialisation.
The control unit incorporates a powerful measuring and diagnostic tool for simulating/forcing
events, testing outputs, checking the status of inputs and the entire system.
