Honeywell's IPGSM-COM delivers secure, reliable fire alarm communications via the Honeywell's Alarmnet network. Connected via the dialer output of our fire alarm panels, this unit eliminates the need for phone lines, replacing them with internet and cellular communications paths that connect to Alarmnet. Our exclusive, triple-path communications solution combines Internet service with GSM for added reliability and an extra level of security. This unique GSM radio technology utilizes GPRS service for alarm communications and automatically switches to SMS for alarms if GPRS is unavailable. Utilizing 256-bit AES encryption, these signals will pass securely through public communications pathways.

Through the Internet or cellular radio, the IPGSM-COM offers full Contact ID data reporting and uploading/downloading with most of today's fire alarm control panels manufactured by Fire-Lite Alarms, Gamewell-FCI, NOTIFIER and Silent Knight. Dry contact inputs make this communicator compatible with other manufacturers control panels as well, for dry contact reporting.

The IPGSM-COM is a compact alarm communicator panel. It
connects to the primary and secondary communication ports of
the Fire Alarm Control Panel�s DACT. In the event of an off-normal
condition, the panel sends contact ID formatted information
to the IPGSM-COM communicator panel. The IPGSM-COM
then reformats the data into highly encrypted Ethernet packets
for transmission to the AlarmNet receiver via customer-provided
internet/intranet connection.

AlarmNet
Honeywell's AlarmNet has been the nationwide leader in alarm communications technology since 1986. A reliable alternative for the transmission of alarm signals, our radio network provides extensive coverage in the United States and Canada AlarmNet Network Control center processes signals from powerful servers in multiple locations equipped with 24/7 infrastructure support. The AlarmNet network consist of redundant hardware servers, hot back-up databases and generators with battery back-up at all locations to ensure continuity of service. Signals from AlarmNet are transmitted to the central station's receivers using multiple communications paths consisting of the Internet, radio network or toll-free POTS service.
Installation Requirements
UL COMPLIANCE
To meet UL864/NFPA compliance, ensure the following:
� IPGSM-COM must be mounted within the same room and within 20 feet of host Fire Alarm Control Panel sounder, or other remote sounder.
� IPGSM-COM must be powered from the same un-switched facility power source branch as the host Fire Alarm Control Panel.
� IPGSM-COM must use the 7AH battery to provide 24-hour backup capability.
Alternative communication methods are critical in the marketplace
due to VoIP (Voice over IP), migration from POTS (�plain
old telephone service�) and growth of digital radio networks. The
IPGSM-COM delivers secure, reliable and complementary Internet
and digital communications via the GSM (Global System for
Mobile) network. Our exclusive, Triple-Path Communications
solution combines Internet service with GSM for added reliability
and an extra level of security. The GSM radio technology is
unique in that it uses GPRS service (General Packet Radio Service)
for data and alarm communications and automatically
switches to SMS (Short Message Service) for alarms if GPRS is
unavailable. Through the Internet or GSM radio, the IPGSMCOM
offers contact ID reporting with listed Fire Alarm Control
Panels.
All signals from the IPGSM-COM communicator panel are delivered
to Honeywell's AlarmNet Network Control Center, which
routes the information to the appropriate central station. The
state of the art AlarmNet Network Control Center is fully redundant
and monitored 24/7. AlarmNet has the ability to route messages
using AlarmNet-i and 800 PLUS services, providing true
redundancy and multi-path message delivery.
When an event occurs, the Fire Alarm Control Panel goes offhook
to dial the central station. The IPGSM-COM Dialer Capture
Module detects the offhook condition and provides the fire panel
with a dial tone. When the fire panel detects the dial tone, it
begins dialing the central station. The Dialer Capture Module
considers the three second period after dialing as the number
dialing has been completed. After the dialing is completed, the
Dialer Capture Module returns a handshake to the fire panel.
The fire panel then sends the contact ID reports to the Dialer
Capture Module, which in turn sends a kiss-off after the report is
successfully received from the fire panel. The Dialer Capture
Module sends the contact ID reports over the ECP bus to the
iGSM communications module. When all the reports are sent,
the fire panel goes on-hook. The iGSM communications module
then transmits the messages to the central station (either over
the internet (primary) or the GSM network).
