Network Nodes & Features
Network Node Features
NCD requires cabinet mounting, a High-Speed Network Communications Module and a +24 VDC filtered power source. This power
can come from the control panel or from a regulated, power-limited remote power supply that is listed for Fire Protection Signaling use.
High-Speed ONYXWorks Workstation.
With NFN-GW-PC-HNW, NFN-GW-PC-HNMF, NFN-GW-PC-HNSF
This workstation provides a PC-based graphical interface for monitoring and controlling activity of multiple nodes on a network. It
allows the user to program network nodes, display network information, and display the network in desirable groups of nodes. It can per-
form System Resets, Signal Silence, and Acknowledge on sets of nodes. It also contains a history buffer which can record events and
actions which have occurred in the network.
The High-Speed ONYXWorks workstation is a personal computer (UL listed for fire control applications) with interface board installed
and with specific software provided.
Do not install third-party software such as office applications or games on this PC.
See your
High-Speed ONYXWorks Workstation manual for operating requirements.
NOTI•FIRE•NET Embedded Gateway
NFN-GW-EM-3 with HS-NCM-W, HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WSF, HS-
NCM-WMF. or HS-NCM-MFSF
The NFN-GW-EM-3 is a network server for the High-Speed ONYXWorks system that connects directly to the High-Speed
Noti•Fire•Net. The NFN-GW-EM-3 bridged the High-Speed ONYXWorks network with the High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net network,
allowing the High-Speed ONYXWorks workstation to perform as the primary facilities workstation. The NFN-GW-EM-3 allows
remote users to monitor a High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net network connected to the local workstation.
BACnet Gateway.
BACNET-GW-3
with HS-NCM-W, HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WSF, HS-NCM-WMF, or
HS-NCM-MFSF
The BACnet Gateway provides an interface between networks that use the BACnet communication protocol and High-Speed
Noti•Fire•Net control panels. BACnet clients communicate with the BACnet Gateway using BACnet/IP. High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net
communicates with the BACnet Gateway via direct connection for single panel interfaces or via HS-NCM for network interfaces. The
BACnet Gateway is compatible with ONYX series panels.
Noti•Fire•Net Web Server.
NWS-3 with HS-NCM-W, HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WSF, HS-NCM-WMF
or HS-NCM-MFSF
The NWS-3 is a web-based device that acts as an HTML server. The NWS-3 provides remote access to the High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net
network via the internet or intranet allowing the user to view the history, event status, device properties, or other control panel informa-
tion. The NWS-3 interfaces to the internet/intranet using an IP-based wire ethernet connection.
NFS-3030/NFS2-3030.
With HS-NCM-W, HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WSF, HS-NCM-WMF or HS-NCM-
MFSF
The NFS-3030 or NFS2-3030 occupy a single node address on the network. The HS-NCM cable plugs into either of the NFS-3030 or
NFS2-3030 NUP ports. The network has the ability to send Acknowledge, Signal Silence, Drill, and System Reset commands to the
NFS-3030 or NFS2-3030. Cooperative Control-by-Event programming enables the panel to react to or trigger events on other network
nodes.
The minimum requirements for an NFS-3030 or NFS2-3030 node are the central processing unit (CPU-3030D, CPU-3030ND, CPU2-
3030D or CPU2-3030ND), AMPS-24/E main power supply, LCM-320, a cabinet, and a High-Speed Network Communications Module.
NFS-640/NFS2-640.
With HS-NCM-W, HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WSF, HS-NCM-WMF or HS-NCM-
MFSF
The NFS-640 or NFS2-640 occupies a single node address on the network. The HS-NCM cable plugs into either of the NFS-640 or
NFS2-640 NUP ports. The network has the ability to send Acknowledge, Signal Silence, Drill, and System Reset commands to the NFS-
640 or NFS2-640. Cooperative Control-by-Event programming enables the panel to react to or trigger events on other network nodes.
The minimum requirements for an NFS-640 or NFS2-640 node are the CPU board with integral power supply, a cabinet, and a High-
Speed Network Communication Module. The NFS-640 and NFS2-640 also require a primary display be installed if it is not to be entirely
controlled and programmed by another node on High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net.
NFS-320.
With HS-NCM-W HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WSF, HS-NCM-WMF or HS-NCM-MFSF
The NFS-320 occupies a single node address on the network. The HS-NCM cable plugs into either of the two NFS-320 NUP ports. The
network has the ability to send Acknowledge, Signal Silence, Drill, and System Reset commands to the NFS-320. Cooperative Control-
by-Event programming enables the panel to react to or trigger events on other network nodes.
The minimum requirements for an NFS-320 node are the NFS-320 CPU assembly, which includes an integral power supply and cabinet,
and a High-Speed Network Communication Module.
NOTE:
The ONYXWorks Workstation version number is found on the CD label, and under the ONYXWorks Help menu: About
ONYXWorks.
NOTE:
Choose the CPU-3030ND of the NFS-3030’s CPU or the CPU2-3030ND version of NFS2-3030’s CPU only when the unit is to be
entirely controlled by another node on High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net (such as ONYXWorks); programming requires VeriFire™.
