Advanced MXP-503 Network Card - Standard
The Ad-NeT network system allows all MxPro5 series control panels, remote terminals and network peripherals to be connected using standard fire resistant two core cable. It provides the benefits of distributed intelligence and reduced installation costs, whilst catering for systems ranging from the smallest two panel network through to a 200 panel wide area networked system.
The network operates as a true peer to peer system, allowing information from any input or output device to be transmitted across the network and displayed on any MxPro5 control panel or remote terminal as required.
Simply adding and connecting a network card enables any MxPro5 control panel or remote terminal to be networked. All other nodes on the Ad-NeT system will automatically recognise a panel once it has been assigned a valid network node address, allowing additional panels to be added at any time. All panels incorporate a network analyser providing valuable diagnostic and status information, and also include the facility to inhibit the transmission of fire or fault signals during commissioning.
For more complex systems, the Windows based PC-NeT Mx configuration software allows sector based programming for Mute, Silence, Resound and Reset control keys, as well as investigation delays, group disablement and test instructions. All panels within the same sector will share common controls, and each panel or remote terminal can also be programmed to display specific network information on a zonal basis. For cause and effect programming, any input device can be configured to operate any output device on any panel.

Standard Network
The maximum total cable length is 1.5 km. The maximum number of network nodes is 32, or 50 with a signal buffer.
Fault Tolerant Network
The maximum cable length is 1.5 km between each node, and the maximum total loop length is 20 km. Each network card has built in diagnostics and is fully monitored for both short circuit and open circuit faults between nodes. The network is capable of withstanding a single fault between nodes without loss of communication to any panel. The maximum number of network nodes is 200.
