Router
Routers receive signals from transceivers, add location data and re-transmit them to the Gateway. If your facility
requires the use of Routers with your system, install them according to the floor plan you received. Mount the
enclosures as high on the wall as possible. Two factors that affect the placement of Routers are the availability of a
power source and sufficient coverage for the supervision of transceivers.
The optimal position of the Router antenna is upright, pointing towards the ceiling. Routers are supervised; a
routine signal is sent from each Router and if the signal is not received by the system, a Device Fault event is
generated in the Event List at the computer. Routers are powered by a plug-in power supply; a backup battery is
also included in the Router enclosure.
Universal Transceiver
A Universal transceiver (not shown) can be used to integrate your facility’s existing equipment such as backup
generators, pull-cord devices, or smoke detectors with the software. A Universal transmitter activates from any
normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) dry-contact device; as soon as the device is activated, it
automatically activates the Universal transmitter which then sends event information to the Client computer(s).
NOTE: Sufficient coverage can be determined by testing the area with a site survey kit.
