ARMORIP monitoring from ICT allows installers to move customer alarm systems to a fully IP solution using their existing internet connections to provide significant savings.
All ICT system controllers include an onboard Ethernet adapter with built in IP reporting functionality, with most controllers also including an onboard modem to communicate alarms via a traditional telephone line.
If you have an existing alarm panel or dialler that only supports ContactID, it’s possible to use the ICT PostX IP Reporting Module. PostX is designed to help transition existing alarm monitoring solutions from traditional PSTN reporting to IP capable devices with minimal effort and at a low cost. It converts any standard ContactID alarm panel to an IP reporting device with full polling and PSTN backup options.
The ArmorIP protocol takes the ContactID message and encapsulates it inside a TCP/IP message which it then transmits across the internet to the monitoring station. PostX also has the ability to include additional information if available, such as panel name, event time, panel type, serial number, zone or username and much more.
