But that doesn t seem like it matters to you.Īlarm systems are complex. If an alarm is sounding, an Access Code must first be entered to silence the alarm before the functions can be used. I have a DSC PC1832 alarm panel with 4 contact zones, 2 motion sensors. But not as robust of a pure alarm panel from a security installer perspective as to features and flexibility. Press the bypass button on the Beep Boop In order to keep the unchanged setting. All around more simple, cheaper, and good integration. The Qolsys panel is an alternatives to the DSC panels that uses same PowerG sensors from DSC, but has all communications built in and will also integrate with. If you know you never want monitoring the Eth card is fine.
16.5VAC, 20VA IMPORTANT NOTE The PC9155 terminal strip in is opposite order compared to previous DSC control panels. 200mA current draw AC AC power connections. AUX -/+ Power connections for 12vdc devices. Since you need Eth for C4 you might as well get the dual band. I/O 2 - configurable as zone input or PGM output. Use the zone bypassing feature when you want to arm the system, but skip a zone that you. Many people use the dual band so you have both forms of communication as a fail safe. This applies to burglar alarms and fire alarms. Most people use cellular over ethernet for monitoring if you have a good signal as its more reliable. For monitoring you need either the ethernet or cellular card or the dual band. There is a rumor you can also use the TL280 serial card, but I have not seen it actually done or had it verified by anybody. There are many reasons you many wish to bypass a zone, which means that the system will disregard any alarms from that zone when armed. This is applicable if you use your system at home or for your business or commercial security alarm system.
For C4 you need either TL280 ethernet card with power neo boards. Today, we’ll look at how to bypass a zone with a DSC Power Series Security Alarm panel. Certain ones are used for certain things. If you want to communicate with third parties then you need the communications card. You alarm panel communicates within its own system with sensors, keypads, sirens, etc.and does not need a communications card such as the TL280 to do this. Sorry, but there are no simple answers for you.
