Description

The VESDAnet Interface Card (VN Card) is a simple interface card for the range of VESDA VLF by Xtralis aspirating smoke detectors. The VN Card provides seamless VESDAnet communication from the detector to other VESDAnet devices, including configuration and monitoring tools.

Installing a VESDAnet Interface Card into a VLF detector and connecting to a VESDAnet offers many benefits. VESDAnet allows sophisticated configuration, monitoring and control from local or remote sites. So rather than a technician having to connect to each
VESDA smoke detector individually (sometimes installed high above floor level), they can communicate with all detectors on the network from a central, convenient, location using a PC. VESDAnet also allows a system management package (such as Xtralis
VSM4) to monitor and report on the status of all devices connected on VESDAnet, facilitating central supervision, management and control of all VESDA detectors. By installing a VN Card in a VLF detector, remote displays and remote relays can be added to the VLF. This extends the capability and flexibility of the VLF detector.
