The contractor
shall provide a complete electrically supervised, battery backed-up,
fire and burglary alarm system.
EEPROM Memory
The alarm panel shall be equipped with EEPROM memory to retain all
program information even if all AC and battery power is lost, and
shall have integral static and lightening protection circuitry.
Communications
Bus
System shall be complete with a 4 wire unshielded (QUAD) communications
bus (KEYBUS) that allows system modules and keypads to be added anywhere
on the bus up to 1,000 feet (305m) per leg from the main control panel.
Alarm Communications
The alarm panel shall be capable of digital communications via regular
telephone line, LINKS cellular, LINKS long range radio, and DVACS
to two separate monitoring stations or locations with 2 account numbers
and 3 telephone numbers. LINKS cellular communication shall be capable
of backup or sole communications to monitoring stations and for upload/download
operations. The system communicator shall be capable of communicating
in all major formats including SIA and Contact ID. Events transmitted
shall be programmable to include: fire alarms, burglary alarms, trouble
alarms, supervisory conditions, alarm restoral codes, opening (disarming)
and closing (arming) codes, partial closing codes, and opening after
alarm codes. The system shall be capable of paging personnel on the
occurrence of any of the above events selected by the owner. The system
shall be capable of transmitting a test code to the monitoring station(s)
on a programmable daily, weekly or monthly frequency at a regular
time of day.
Alarm Zone
Types
The system shall be complete with a multi-zone alarm system with the
capacity of up to 32 burglar or Class B fire zones of which up to
32 may be wireless zones. All zones shall be supervised and be capable
of operating listed heat detectors, smoke detectors, alarm contacts,
motion detectors, glassbreak detectors, vibration detectors, and other
listed fire and burglary alarm detection devices.
The system shall
have stay/away and stay arming capability to allow the user to remain
on the premises while the system is armed. A quick-arm feature shall
allow users without access codes to arm the system and exit. A door
chime feature shall cause the keypad to beep when a selected door
is opened or closed.
Wireless Security
& Control
Wireless security shall be 900MHz true 'Spread Spectrum' technology.
All detectors shall be fully supervised for communication integrity
every 12 minutes.
Wireless control
devices shall include up to 4 wireless keypads (in addition to hardwired
keypads), and up to 16 wireless keys for remote arm/disarm. In addition,
the system shall accommodate up to 32 wireless panic pendants each
occupying one wireless zone in lieu of a wireless detector.
Auxiliary Power
The system shall be capable of providing 550mA of 12VDC auxiliary
power for alarm devices.
Programmable
Outputs
The system shall have 1 low current voltage output and 1 high current
voltage output. All outputs shall be programmable to activate for
1 of 23 options.
Audible Alarm
Output
There shall be a 700mA, PTC protected, supervised bell/siren circuit
that will drive a bell/siren until reset or silenced. Siren output
shall be programmable as steady or pulsed for each zone.
False Alarm
Prevention
To prevent false alarms and unnecessary transmissions to monitoring
stations, the alarm panel shall have SIA false alarm prevention features,
programmable swinger shutdown by zone, audible exit delay, audible
exit fault, opening after alarm reporting, arm/disarm bell squawk,
urgency on entry delay, “quick exit”, programmable transmission delay
by zone, and transmission delay on AC failure, TLM trouble, low battery,
recent close code, and cross zone police code.
Hardwired Keypads
The system shall support any combination of up to 8 dual-language
and LED type keypads with backlit displays. Keypads shall be surface-mounted
and capable of fully programming and operating the system. Each keypad
shall be assignable to operate the entire system. Dual-language keypads
shall be complete with 32 character liquid crystal display (LCD) to
provide plain language programming instructions, operating instructions,
and display of all alarms and supervisory conditions. They shall be
capable of toggling between languages by pressing a keypad key combination.
LED keypads shall have up to 32 zone indicators. All keypads shall
have keypad-activated emergency alarms for panic, emergency, fire,
and duress; 5 programmable function keys or programmable keypad functions;
LED indicators for Ready, Armed, and Trouble or System; and shall
be equipped with a piezo buzzer to provide audible feedback for correct
key entries, pre-alert, and trouble.
Each keypad shall
have one zone input to allow a zone detector to be wired directly
to the keypad.
Access Codes
The system shall allow 39 access codes including 32 user codes, 1
master code, 2 duress codes, 2 supervisor codes, 1 installer code,
and 1 maintenance code.
Upload/Download
The system shall be uploadable/downloadable to allow programming and
operation from a directly connected local computer, or from a remote
computer over a telephone line or LINKS cellular communications equipment.
Remote access shall be controlled by the owner to prevent unauthorized
access.
Serial Printer
The system shall support a 300, 1200, 2400 or 4800 bps serial printer
connected to the communications bus up to 1,000 feet (305m) from the
control panel. The printer shall log all system events and transactions
with time and date stamp. Information shall be stored in the system’s
128 event buffer which can be examined from the LCD keypad or via
Comm-Link DLS software.
Approvals
The system shall meet UL and ULC standards as required for the relevant
type of application.
