Operation
Phone line capture
BAT-Fire provides two PSTN interfaces for the FACP/burg panel’s DACT phone line connections.
BAT-Fire’s DACT phone interface connection provides phone line voltage, dial tone, ringback tone
and all required CID protocol signaling. The BAT-Fire receives CID events from the FACP/burg
panel’s DACT and then relays the CID events to the central station receiver.
Point capture
The BAT-Fire provides inputs that can be used to monitor an FACP’s alarm, AC fail, and trouble
points (dry contact outputs). In this topology BAT-Fire inputs will be connected to the FACP points
(dry contact outputs). BAT-Fire will continually monitor the state of the FACP points (dry contact
outputs). A state change on a BAT-Fire monitored FACP point (dry contact output) will be report-
ed to the central station. (Refer to the Programming section describing how to set-up a BAT-Fire
input for FACP point capture.)
Note:
for UL 864 10th edition,
this configuration may only be used for panels with one input zone.
9th edition and earlier permitted this method for multiple protection zones.
Central station communication
The BAT-Fire can be configured to provide dual path connectivity using Ethernet/broadband
and cell or single path connectivity using either Ethernet/broadband or cell to Bosch Conettix
D6100IPv6 receivers at the central station.
