Fire Alarm – Control Panel

Client's Overview:

A UK-based leading and established Fire Alarm solutions provider having a wide customer base and significant market share in the UK.

Challenges:

The existing fire panel product was unable to interface with addressable detectors. The UI was not intuitive and was handling a limited number of detectors with no networking capability between the individual control panels.

Solution & Approach:

The need was to upgrade and enhance the functionality of the existing Fire Alarm Control Panel Solution. The upgradable hardware platform covering integrated hardware and firmware solution along with the enhanced functions and panel networking was designed and developed with an option to use loop cards, addressing the need for looping detectors that could be retrofitted and hot fixed. Ensured product compliance with the stringent EN-54 standards, required for a seamless release in the UK market.

Added Farsi language support and included compatibility with PC-based software to configure the device with ease. Also amplified the performance through integration with the third-party building management software
