Section 7: IP Communication
The system's built-in, on-board IP Communicator provides notification to a remote monitoring company when alarms, troubles,
and supervisory conditions occur. The IP Communicator is used with an IP capable Sur-Guard receiver by means of the Fibro
protocol.
Note: The UD-1000 or DACT may also be installed to provide notification to a remote monitoring company via
telephone lines.
Programming options allow you to select accounts for test events and alarm, trouble, and supervisory conditions. You may set up
IP parameters, such as when and where to send reports by specifying IP addresses and other report output options. An example of
the Add – IP Communicator window is shown below.

Notes:
1. A daily test can automatically be sent to a remote monitoring location; the test time may be programmed through the
General Options program window – “Time to Send Autotest” field.
2. If the system has been programmed to use the IP Communicator and the UD-1000, the daily test call can be sent to both
reporting accounts.
3. If the IP Communicator is not programmed and the UD-1000 is not installed, the system will operate as a local panel.
4. Where the fire alarm transmitter is sharing on-premises communications equipment, the shared equipment shall be
UL listed.
5. Secondary power shall be provided for all equipment necessary for the transmission and reception of alarm, supervisory
and trouble signals at the protected premises.
6. Secondary power shall be provided for all equipment necessary for the transmission and reception of alarm, supervisory
and trouble signals at the supervising station.
