Section 7: IP Communication
The system's built-in, on-board IP Communicator is one way to provide notification to a remote monitoring company when
alarms, troubles, and supervisory conditions occur. The IP Communicator is used with an IP capable Sur-Guard receiver by
means of the Fibro protocol.
Note
: The UD-1000 or DACT may also be installed to provide notification to a remote monitoring company via
telephone lines.
Programming options allow you to select accounts for test events and alarm, trouble, and supervisory conditions. You may set up
IP parameters, such as when and where to send reports
by specifying IP addresses and other report output options. An example
of the
Add – IP Communicator window
is shown below.
Example of the IP Reporting Window
Figure 163.
Notes
:
A daily test can automatically be sent to a remote monitoring location; the test time may be programmed through the
1.
General Options program window – “Time to Send Autotest” field.
If the system has been programmed to use the IP Communicator
2.
and the UD-1000, the daily test call can be sent to both
reporting accounts.
If the IP Communicator is not programmed and the UD-1000 is not installed, the system will operate as a local panel.
