SWIFT® wireless modules are intelligent addressable modules which provide secure, reliable communication to the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) across a Class A mesh network. Wireless modules create an opportunity for applications where it is costly (concrete walls/ceilings, buried wires), obtrusive (surface mount conduit), or possibly dangerous (asbestos) to use traditional wired devices. In addition, both wired and wireless devices can be present on the same FACP providing an integrated wired-wireless solution for increased installation potential.
The mesh network within the SWIFT system creates a childparent relationship between the devices so that each device has two parents providing a second path for communications on every device. If one device can no longer operate for any reason, the rest of the devices can still communicate with each other, directly or through one or more intermediate devices.
The SWIFT system also engages frequency hopping to prevent system interference whether intentional or accidental. The SWIFT monitor module is intended for use with a wireless gateway to interface with a device having contacts used to signal status conditions. It is designed to provide an interface to contact devices such as security contacts, waterflow switches, or pull stations. The input to the monitor module is non-latching and does not require a reset. The device has a panel controlled LED indicator. The monitor module must be within 3- feet of the monitored device when using field wiring or 20 feet in nonmetallic conduit.
