SafeLINC™ Fire Panel Internet Interface Online Access to Fire System Information The intention of this presentation is to highlight the advances in technology and the availability of communication mediums that have developed by SimplexGrinnell to not only to meet our customers requirements, but to also enhance and improve on previous traditional methods by utilizing site wired LAN/WAN reticulation networks and the internet.

Introducing… SafeLINC Fire Panel Internet Interface An Internet-based communications link that enables facility managers and building owners to use a web browser to monitor the status of their fire alarm systems Target markets School districts Hospitals with remote facilities Universities and colleges Non-contiguous manufacturing facilities The term SafeLINC is best described as an internet-based communication tool for remote access to a fire panel. Now this may be required by either a facilities manager or a building owner/occupier in a Hospital or a University, as an example, or quite simply by a fire alarm maintenance company.

What is SafeLINC? A Web Interface internet connectivity for Fire Alarm Control Panels Enables investigation of fire alarm control panel status using an Internet browser Uses customers’ Internet/Intranet back bone Provides: Browser review of system status Automatic e-mail of event status changes So what is SafeLINC? It is a Web based internet interface to a fire alarm panel that can provide investigation and/or interrogation of one’s system using the customers Internet/Intranet backbone in addition to being able to provide fire alarm event changes automatically via email. __________________________________________________________________

System Overview The fire panel is assigned an IP address on the customers LAN/WAN and then via any P.C. and a local internet connection, one can dial in to the fire panel and either remotely request status summaries or interrogate the system.

Features Panel Status Shown on Internet Browser Display of Alarm, Priority 2, Supervisory, and Trouble messages & counts Detailed point information similar to that available on panel user interface TrueAlarm sensor status and service report viewing Alarm and Trouble log viewing The information available via the web browser is similar to that available on the fire panel user interface as well as having the ability to view detector status and service reports, and alarm and trouble logs.

Sample Event Screen This slide shows a standard active fire events list which details the device address within the system, the type of device e.g smoke detector and any operator notes associated with a change of status for that device. Like the name and contact details of the person one should contact in the event of an emergency.

Internet Connectivity Benefits Get fire system alerts automatically through e-mail Get reports automatically through e-mail for archiving and printing on your systems printers So in closing, I guess some of the benefits of the SafeLINC internet interface device could be automatic fire alarm alerts via email as well as automatically routing system reports via email to your workstation for printing.

Internet Connectivity Uses Access your buildings fire systems from one location, any location And the ability to access a buildings fire alarm system from one or many locations through the local internet/intranet.
