XFP network communication card for XFP 16 zone panels(one required for each networked panel)
- An optional system expansion device for use with the Context Plus XFP 1 loop 16 zone model XFP501E/X/CON fire panels.
- Allows the connection of up to eight XFP Repeaters or eight XFP Main panels (any mix) on an RS485 network.
- One AFP761 card required per networked Main XFP 1 Loop 16 Zone panel (note that XFP510-16/CON repeaters include a CFP761 network driver card as standard).
- The AFP761 is NOT compatible with the XFP/501/CON Single Loop 32 Zone panels and the XFP/502/CON two loop 32 Zone panels which require a CFP711 card for networking.
Key network protocol features when used for interconnecting Context Plus XFP main panels:
Can be used to connect up to 8 Context Plus XFP main panels (any mix) over a two-wire RS485 network of up to 1KM in length.
Each networked Context Plus XFP main panel can be programmed to accept Fires, Faults and Control actions such as Silence Alarm Sounders and Control Panel Resets from other panels.
Each Context Plus XFP main panels will accept Disablement commands for zones, sounders and output sets from other panels.
All panels monitored for network wiring faults.
Fires and faults on remote panels are displayed on local panels including the point description.
C&Es can be programmed into local panels dependent on which remote panel is in alarm.
The network supports the programming of site data into remote panels from a PC at a local panel.
Time and date is common to all panels.
All networked main panels require a network communication card.
It is not possible to mix XFP main panels and XFP repeaters on the same network.
Key network protocol features when used for connecting Context Plus XFP repeaters:
Can be used to connect up to 8 Context Plus XFP repeaters (any mix) to one XFP main panel.
Up to 500m of cable may be fitted to an XFP two-wire repeater network.
Each XFP repeater offers all the functions and controls of an XFP main panel.
The Context Plus XFP main panel must have a network communication card fitted.
It is not possible to mix XFP main panels and XFP repeaters on the same network.
