Our equipment
We Monitor currently offer two ICASA approved solutions. The state of the art mi64 alarm panel is a complete alarm panel and is suitable as a replacement of an existing alarm panel or for new installations. The GSM Communicator module is best suited as an add-on to existing panels where only the radio needs to be replaced to make use of our service or where a simplified monitor solution is required. Both of these solutions are remotely accessible via our website giving you control even when you are not at the premises.
mi64 Panel
The mi64 is a state of the art, microprocessor based, customizable sixteen-zone Alarm Panel. It is, with the addition of expander modules, expandable to a maximum of 64 zones. All features are programmable either directly via the keypad or the manufacturers' website (for authorized users only). Communication to the We Monitor monitoring station is by means of an onboard GSM modem. Five programmable outputs are provided which may be used to operate peripheral devices or alternately activate a radio transmitter for dual technology monitoring applications. A dedicated fused siren output is provided. Each keypad has the option of one additional zone and one additional programmable output. Each expander module provides an additional 8 zones and two programmable outputs.
mi64 Features
- 16 programmable, end-of-line supervised zone inputs
- Expandable to 64 zones using expander modules and keypad zones (8 zones per expander module and 1 one per keypad)
- 4 partitions
- Optional tamper reporting per zone using double end-of-line resistors
- Dedicated tamper zone
- Five programmable outputs on the alarm panel, with an additional output per keypad and 2 outputs per expansion module
- Flash memory retains all program and event log data in the event of a total power failure
- Remote access to a timestamped event log
- Zone loop response time programmable to either 100 ms or 16 ms
- Up and downloadable from website
- Auto arm / disarm capability per partition and by day of the week
- Dynamic battery test
- Low battery cut out
- Remotely updateable firmware for panel, keypads, and expansion modules
- Integral GSM modem. Optionally the panel is available without the GSM modem but functionality is degraded
- Reporting via the GSM module and/or trigger outputs.
GSM Communicator
The GSM Communicator is specifically designed for use in the security industry. It can be connected to an existing alarm panel via the telephone connections and accepts any Contact ID strings. The unit operates on a private network and the signals are routed to the We Monitor monitoring station. Four configurable trigger inputs are also provided allowing for the implementation of this unit as a stand-alone solution where a full alarm panel is not required.
GSM Communicator Features
- 4 programmable inputs
- Compatible with existing alarm panels using the Contact ID protocol
- Cost saving, stand-alone monitoring solution
