Connecting Fire Alarms the Easy Way

Apartment buildings, strip malls, and other multi-building applications were monitoredindividually in the past. A common way of consolidating the central station communications was running a Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) between a main panel and remote panelsin different buildings. Although this method yields savings in monitoring costs, running wires underground introduces the potential for costly ground faults and also repairs due to lightning strikes. Fire-Lite Alarms now offers a practical solution called Lite-Connect to help you meet the application’s needs while saving time and money.

Lite-Connect is a solution that allows building owners reduce the number of phone lines by consolidating the central station communications to a single MS-9050UD fi re alarm control panel. Using fi ber-optic technology, the panels are connected together and the MS-9050UD sends point or zone information to the Central Station for the entire system. In addition,building to building connections with fi ber-optic cable avoids potential ground fault issuesand damage caused by lightning strikes.

With Lite-Connect you can:• Reduce Callbacks. Running wire underground to connect panels together in remote buildings is prone to ground faults and lighting strikes. Fiber-optic cable eliminates these potential issues.

• Consolidate Phone Lines. Save the end user money on additional phone lines, monitoring costs, and monitor modules. Whether you are monitoring individual buildings or consolidating communications with the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) from a main panel. Lite-Connect is a better solution.

• Improve First Responder Response If monitoring via SLC and monitor modules, Alarm, Trouble, and Supervisory are typically what is available. Lite-Connect offers zone and point information to help fi rst responders pinpoint the location of the alarm and leads to a faster response.

• Streamline Central Station Reporting Easy to read Central Station reports that are generated based on the system programming for the specifi c project geared towards reducing installation time.
