BAT-FIRE-VZ - Alula Commercial Fire Dual-Path IP/Cellular Verizon 5G LTE-M Alarm Communicator (for Universal Contact ID Control Panels)
Alula BAT-FIRE-VZ Product Description:
The Alula BAT-FIRE-VZ is a universal dual-path internet/cellular Verizon 5G LTE-M commercial fire alarm communicator. The BAT-FIRE-VZ communicator connects to an intrusion or fire alarm control panel (FACP) and provides AlarmClub central station alarm reporting.
The BAT-FIRE-VZ 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. The BAT-FIRE-VZ allows system integrators to save money, maximize install flexibility and skip the 4G cellular sunset.
It provides two PSTN interfaces for the FACP/burg panel's DACT phone line connections. The BAT-Fire's DACT phone interface connection provides phone line voltage, dial tone, ringback tone and all required CID protocol signaling. The BAT-FIRE-VZ receives CID events from the FACP/burg panel's DACT and then relays the CID events to the central station receiver.
The BAT-FIRE-VZ 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). The communicator will continually monitor the state of the FACP points (dry contact outputs). A state change on a BAT-FIRE-VZ monitored FACP point (dry contact output) will be reported to the central station.
Please 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.
