Preliminary, not for sales
Product overview
ATS1745 Advisor Master IP Bus Adaptor modules enable Advisor Master data to
be carried over an IP network and to be converted back to RS-485
communications for connection to bus devices.
This capability enables connection to bus devices such as a remote arming station
(RAS) or a data gathering panel (DGP) via existing IP network infrastructure rather
than by four-wire, twisted-pair, shielded data cable. In addition, ATS1745 modules
provide securely-encrypted IP communications via a unique 128-bit encryption key.
ATS1745 modules are configured as either a start-of-line module (SLM) or an end-
of-line module (ELM) and work as a pair for the IP communications link. An SLM
can be connected to as many as 31 ELMs to provide IP connections to each Bus’s
RASs and DGPs.
Note:
An Advisor Master panel can have 16 RASs and 15 DGPs on its Bus. The
maximum number of ELMs is 31.
ATS1745 modules have an onboard Web server that is used by installers to
configure the module via a Web browser. For security purposes, a module’s Web
server can be locked to prevent unauthorized access.
ATS1745 modules are not polled as bus devices: they are merely a portion of the
system data bus. As a result, a variety of configuration options are possible,
depending on what parts of the bus need to be carried on the IP network. Each
Advisor Master system databus will have at least two ATS1745 modules (one SLM
and one ELM) and can have up to 32 modules (one SLM and 31 ELMs).
Figure 1 below and Figure 2 on page 2 depict a pair of ATS1745 modules used to
communicate with Bus devices over the IP network. Figure 3 on page 2 depicts
one SLM and multiple ELMs.
