annunciate specific alarm types such as trouble-only
events.
• Supports upload/download using existing, familiar program-
ming tools.
• Two supervised inputs and two outputs.
Easy to Program
There are three ways to configure the IP Communicator:
1. Console terminal using the HyperTerminal™ software
program found on all Microsoft® operating systems.
2. Local or remote Telnet session via Ethernet connection.
3. Windows-based configuration software (shipped with IP
Communicator).
The IP Communicator can be pre-programmed. The program-
mer enters all central-station information and an auto-registra-
tion password. This is saved to the unit’s flash memory. When
the IP Communicator is installed at the site and connected to
the Internet/Intranet, it registers itself with the central station
receiver. This eliminates the need for a PC at the remote site
for programming. The IP receiver at the monitoring station will
automatically configure other parameters during registration.
• For most installations, the only required parameters are:
• Selection of either DHCP or Static IP
• Destination primary and secondary receiver IP addresses
• Account identification number (CID)
• Port number
• Installation password
All of these parameters are assigned by the central station.
See “Installation Requirements” for full details.
Panel Capabilities
The IPDACT-2/2UD unit is compatible with the following UL
864 Ninth Edition fire alarm panels: NFS-320, NFS2-640,
NFS2-3030, NCA-2, FireWarden-100-2 (NFW2-100), FireWar-
den-50 (NFW-50), SFP-5UD, and SFP-10UD. The IPDACT-2/
2UD is also compatible with Notifier legacy Fire Alarm Control
Panels. See the IPDACT Series Installation Document PN
53109 for more information on compatibility and use of the
UDACT Universal Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter.
Use 411 or 411UD Slave Dialer and HP300ULX power supply
to connect to Alarm Trouble and Supervisory relay outputs of
any competitive fire panel.
If using 411 or 411UD Slave Dialer with a competitive fire
panel, the HP300ULX power supply is required for mounting
and powering the IP Communicator. Order bracket kit PN:
IPBRKT separately. Both enclosures must be close-nippled to
the FACP.
The following panels may use an internal mounting bracket
(PN IPBRKT) for use with the common enclosure or can use
the HP300ULX power supply when more power is required:
– NFW-50
– NFW2-100
– SFP-5UD
– SFP-10UD
NOTE: See “Installation Requirements” for current draws.
VisorALARM PLUS® IP Receiver
The FireWatch™ IP Communicator reports to the
VisorALARM-PLUS IP receiver (manufactured by the Teldat
Corporation). Each IP receiver can manage up to 3,000 IP
Communicator accounts and is compatible with existing cen-
tral station alarm monitoring software.
The VisorALARM IP receiver is based on high-availability
router technology and uses a high-performance embedded
operating system for higher reliability and efficiency. All IP
receiver configuration and operating data is backed up to a
smart card. This allows for an immediate equipment replace-
ment within 60 seconds with almost no downtime and no infor-
mation loss. The Primary and Secondary receiver
configurations provide maximum level of redundancy and both
can be backed up by additional “clustered” receivers for the
highest reliability available in the industry. Both receivers com-
municate in real-time over the network to keep information
synchronized and up-to-date. Each VisorALARM Plus
Receiver can handle up to 20 concurrent TCP/IP connections
from Upload/Download Users.
Installation Requirements
The following are required for proper installation of the IP
Communicator:
• 24 VDC nonresettable, filtered, regulated power:
– IPDACT-2UD : 155 mA in alarm; standby 98 mA.
– IPDACT-2: 136 mA in alarm; 93 mA standby.
