Description
Designed for remote and unattended site operation, the
Fire Station Interface (FSI) is capable of operating to specification
throughout the full environmental conditions experienced in fire
stations. This is achieved
by the selection of components that have extended temperature
specifications and the units overall design reflects the requirement of
absolute reliability.
Features
 Activation
by Telstra ERS7
The FSI includes an input to allow activation by the
existing Telstra ERS-7 system. The
FSI response to this activation is completely programmable but will be
configured to page CFS Group and Brigade members through a sequence with
the required response format. This
response format may be programmed both locally and remotely.
Activation
by Fire Indicator Panel
A serial input is provided to accept a data stream from intelligent
Fire Station Fixed Premises Alarm System.
The FSI response to this activation is completely programmable,
but will be configured to page CFS Group and Brigade members through a
sequence with the required format.
This response format may be programmed both locally and remotely.
Four
inputs are provided to accept normally closed Fire Station Common Alarm
Systems. The FSI response
to this activation is completely programmable but will be configured to
page CFS Group and Brigade members through a sequence with the required
format. This response format may be programmed both locally and
remotely.
Message
Delivery
Where an alarm is detected by both serial data stream and a common
alarm, the FSI will deliver each locally generated message to the same
and/or different destinations as required.
Activation
by Local Station "Break Glass" Push Button Panel
Four inputs are provided to accept the Fire Station push button panel
inputs. Activation of the FSI by these inputs will cause the
generation of a page to CFS Group and Brigade members using a sequence
with the required format of message.
This format may be programmed both locally and remotely.
Dial-Up
Connection to the SA-GRN Paging Server Using the Public Switched
Telephone Network
An A.C.A. approved modem is provided that connects the FSI to the
dedicated PSTN line (CFS provided).
This is the primary means of communicating messages to the SA-GRN
Network Operations Centre. This
action forms part of the level 1 programmable response sequence.
Ability
to Access a Secondary SA-GRN Paging Server Using the Public Switched
Telephone Network
In the event that the primary connection to the NOCC should fail then
the FSI will attempt a connection to a secondary paging server.
This action forms part of the level 1 programmable response
sequence.
Ability
to Connect to either SA-GRN Paging Servers via the GSM and/or CDMA
Mobile Telephone Network
A module is provided within the FSI that allows communications utilising
either GSM or CDMA technology. This
will be used in the event of PSTN failure/busy etc.
This ensures reliability of connection to either SA-GRN paging
servers.
Ability to send messages to Digital Telephones as a Contingency against
Loss of Paging Service
Should the FSI be unable to communicate to the paging server or an
individual pager then the page may be sent using short message service
to a preset table of recipients. This
table may be set both locally and remotely.
Reporting
of Fire Station Status
Eight inputs are provided to accept inputs and are configured to page
CFS Group and Brigade members through a sequence with the required
response format. This response format may be programmed both locally and
remotely. Inputs can be
detecting station statuses such as mains failure, 12-Volt failure,
illegal entry, manual siren operation and fire alarm activation.
Activation
of Group and Brigade Pagers and Remotely Activated Equipment by D.T.M.F.
Dial-In
Users may dial into the FSI and present a security code in DTMF format
and subsequently trigger locally programmed page messages using DTMF.
This activation is configured to page CFS Group and Brigade
members through a level sequence with the required response format.
The response format and security code may be programmed both
locally and remotely.
Remote
Activation of Station Siren and Remote Control of Station Doors, Lights
etc
Up to 8 dry relay outputs are provided to allow the remote activation of
station sirens, doors, roller doors, lights etc.
These outputs are activated by the reception of paging message of
preset format.
Operation
from Existing Fire Station DC Power Supply
(12 Volts DC)
The FSI operates on its own power supply that includes internal battery
backup. Watchdog testing of
internal battery backup ensures its reliability.
The FSI will revert to the fire stations 12 Volt supply should
its own become defective. All
defects including the fire stations supply are reported via level 2
sequence (programmable).
Dial
Out Protocol
The PET Protocol as common to Link Telecommunications nodes is used to
access the SA-GRN paging servers.
Dial Out Line Speed (V22bis
2400 bps)
As required the communication speed for PET protocol is 2400 Baud.
Multiple
Programmable Dial Out
The FSI is capable of multiple programmable dial-outs in
response to an activation. All dial-out numbers and sequences are
programmable both locally and remotely.
Interface
to Local Paging Transmitter
The FSI is capable of interfacing to local paging transmitters and
allows the dual operation with the SA-GRN paging servers.
Dimensions
Width = 30cm
Depth = 28cm
Height = 9cm
Technical
Support 24 Hours/7 Days
24 hour/7day technical support will be provided for the FSI.
The level of support includes the maintenace of a comprehensive
database of FSI unit programs and user data to allow exact reproduction
of a units settings should remote uploading or replacement be required.
Telstra Approved
for Connection to the SA-GRN. Approval
has been granted for the FSI connection to the SA-GRN.
