Bosch Security Systems Inc. has introduced a new generation of its FPA-1000-UL Analog/Addressable Fire Panel that now includes support for up to 508 addressable devices. Using two analog addressable loops, the panel has doubled its capacity to support larger applications, such as schools, warehouses and office buildings. Innovative enhancements to the panel’s built-in Web interface have also made operation easier and more secure. New features such as online help and an offline configuration tool make provisioning easier and more efficient for customers. Its Web server and set of interactive Web pages provide an instant means to access important system functions, including status, history files, diagnostic tools and test data. The upgraded panel also features additional flexibility for programming parameters, such as the ability to activate smoke detector sounder bases by zone and support for “smart” analog devices. www.boschsecurity.us
