2. Introducing the SEPI Interface
The SEPI interface (Serial Event Printing Interface) endows the VisorALARM device with a serial
port function to which a printer serial device can be connected and also admits the ASCII basic
protocol. Traditional alarm receivers commonly have a serial printer to print out events therefore this
functionality has been added to the VisorALARM device.
The SEPI interface is directly linked to the ARLY interface so the events for this interface displayed
on the console are those sent to the printer. Basically, not all the events are printed, only those that are
not repetitive. Additionally the events are organized into different functionalities, being printed by
function and not by event.
