2 System Overview
The FPA-1000 Analog Addressable Fire Panels are advanced analog addressable control
panels for small to large facilities in residential, commercial or public building applications.
Optional networking cards allow multiple panels to be interconnected into a networked
system. The network acts as if it were a single panel for purposes of communication. In other
words, an alarm signal received by any panel in the network is communicated to all the panels
in the network.
Based on communication connection mode, there are three types of networking cards
available:
