Security system A in new ECS Dan Carrington Fri, 23 Jun 2006 09:13:12 -0700

I have still use ECSL, but I am looking into the possibility of moving 
to the new ECS.  My only real concerns are two of my interface types.  I 
am wondering if they are still available in the new ECS.

The PLC-interface-C, the old MicroRedacs.  Are they still available in 
the new ECS?  I can move them to an Ocelot if necessary, but at 
significant cost as I have 1 small and 2 of the larger style MicroRedacs 
in service.  That makes for 5 new ocelot modules I whould have to buy.

The Security-IFC-A and B.  I seem to remember hearing that the 
Security-IFC-B was removed for new ECS.  But is the Security-IFC-A still 
available under the new ECS?  In the old Vision Plus, it was possible to 
have two receivers on the panel for better reception.  Is that possible 
with the FA403?  Or is it possible to have more than one Security-IFC-A 
defined on ECS?  How many sensors can I have in the new ECS?  Do they 
still report "not responding' when they time out so I can determine if 
the sensors have left the area?

thanks a bunch!
