LightSYS2 Communication Methods
LightSYS2 communicates event reporting and state notification to monitoring stations or to
home owners through a variety of channels and report frameworks, both directly and
through the RISCO cloud. These same channels and frameworks can also be used to exert
remote system and panel control for purposes of programming and maintenance.
Channels
The principal channels through which LightSYS2 communicates are:
PSTN (On‐board)
IP (To activate, see page 34)
The LightSYS2 IP module is an easy‐to‐add plug‐in module that enables the system
to communicate over IP networks for reporting, control and programming. It can be
used as the primary communication channel, parallel channel or as a failure back up
for the GPRS/GSM or PSTN communications.
GSM/GPRS (To activate, see page 33)
The LightSYS2 GSM/GPRS module is an easy‐to‐add plug‐in module that enables
the system to communicate over GPRS/GSM networks for reporting, control and
programming. It can be used as the primary communication channel, parallel
channel or as a failure back up for the IP or PSTN communications.
Long Range Radio (where available)
