Access the fire control panel over the network
Modern fire safety systems employ a combination of hardware and software solutions to detect emergencies and generate appropriate alerts. Safety engineers often attempt to implement remote monitoring software to facilitate access to control panels and associated devices. Developing this kind of system from scratch may require a substantial investment in time and money.
Serial to Ethernet Connector provides a streamlined method of establishing network access to remote fire control panels. Operators can monitor and control the panels from any location and reset them when an alarm has been accidentally generated without physically visiting the devices.
In large facilities, it may be impractical for engineers to be physically present to address issues with system components. They may require remote access to the serial ports of fire control panels and sensors. This may necessitate the integration of serial port redirection technology into the fire control. The Serial to Ethernet Connector SDK provides everything you need to establish remote access to the serial ports of the devices that make up the fire safety system.
Remote access to fire alarm control panels and fire detection systems
Serial to Ethernet Connector encapsulates and transmits serial data over the network without distance limitations. It works by leveraging virtualization technology to virtualize serial ports and make them accessible to remote networked-attached machines. This technology is easy to integrate into fire protection and control software and hardware.
All elements of a fire safety system can be automated when equipped with remote access capabilities. Serial to Ethernet Connector gives operators the power to operate remote fire safety panels, reset errors, and monitor their condition to perform proactive maintenance.
Serial to Ethernet Connector runs on all major operating systems and can be customized to fit the unique needs of your fire safety system. Integrating the technology with the SDK enables fire safety personnel to use local computers to remotely monitor and control equipment over any distance.
Benefits of integrating Serial to Ethernet Connector into fire-safety systems
The addition of remote access technology enhances the ability of safety personnel to address issues in real time for more effective protection.
Data can be shared among multiple computers simultaneously. Multiple data streams can be consolidated into a single stream or a stream can be split to address specific usage requirements.
Users can leverage Serial to Ethernet Connector SDK to communicate with any type of serial device used to design a fire safety system.
Our satisfied clients
“I'm a fire alarm engineer dealing with commissioning of fire control panels. I was after a solution that would help me support multiple customers from home without giving them system commissioning software. I planned to share client application with all of my customers and have server application on my commissioning software.
This was made possible thanks to Serial to Ethernet Connector SDK integration. Now my customers just access their panels with their laptops without commissioning software, give me a call, and I'm accessing to panels through the customers’ PCs.”
