Redundant Control

• Ideal for installations where continuous fire protection is critical
• Provides total peace of mind by safeguarding people and property and assuring business continuity.

• The Advanced redundant fire alarm panel operates in ‘hot standby’ mode  
• It automatically takes over full control whenever the main panel detects a system trouble/fault
• There is no system downtime 
• Provides total peace of mind that your fire system will continue to work even when faults occur.

Full fire system redundancy – not just a redundant microprocessor:

• Simple configuration
• Easy installation and wiring
• Many redundancy options to suit your needs
• No downtime in building safety.

• If the main panel experiences a system fault caused by the network card, motherboard, display, PSU, or loop card, the DRCM automatically switches all field wiring to the redundant panel
• If the mains incoming supply fails, an internal AC feeder selector card switches to a backup mains supply.

• You choose the level of control you want to have over your redundant system with main, automatic or redundant control options
• We design fully automatic fire system redundancy as well as providing options for manual control
• LED or customised indication
• Key switch control for maintenance purposes.

• Advanced’s fault-tolerant networks are wired using two diverse routes
• This configuration provides the first line of defence against system failure due to faults
• If a break occurs in the network, data transfer continues in the opposite direction so there is no loss in fire protection.

• Depending on the nature of your site, you may not require full redundant control across your entire system
• We give you the option to install and configure redundancy exactly where you need it
• This saves you time as well as material and installation costs.

• Our AdSpecials custom build department creates redundant panels to meet your needs, following a clear and simple process
• Configuration is easy, with only one file required for the whole network 
• Data from up to 200 panels is stored in one configuration file.

• Where amplifiers are installed within the fire system, they can be configured as 40W amplifiers with backup.
• Should an internal trouble/fault on the amplifier occur, the backup amplifier will take control and so maintain the integrity of the system.
