Serial Communications
The IFC-1010/2020 uses serial communication to move data between
Optional Serial
printers, CRT terminals, and annunciators. The various components used
Interface
are described here.
Boards
SIB-2048A The SIB-2048A has two printer and two terminal serial interfaces. The
first printer interface supports a PRN Fire Protective Signaling System
printer. The second printer interface is intended for connection to
UL Listed Electronic Data Processing (EDP) printers. The first CRT
interface is for use with the CRT or Fire Protective Signaling System
Listed terminal. The second CRT interface is intended for connection to
UL Listed EDP
Devices connected to this interface may be used to activate modules
(points) or display up to 2048 points/zones. The SIB-2048A ACS interface
is electrically isolated. Merge firmware (M2.8 or higher) is needed for the
SIB-2048A in order to operate properly. Use the SIB-2048 for the system
with replacement firmware.
SIB-NET The SIB-NET contains all of the features of the SIB-2048. When used
with a Media Interface Board (MIB), the SIB-NET can also communicate
with the Metasys Fire Network
alarm and trouble events through the network to other network nodes for
display and recording. The network allows the Fire OWS/INA to
perform reset, acknowledge, and signal silence functions
IFC-1010/2020. The SIB-NET replaces SIB-232, SIB-2048, and in
existing systems which later require connection to the Metasys Fire
Network. The SIB-NET supports all features of the SIB-2048A including
ACS annunciators, printers, and CRTs.

WARNING: The entire network must contain the same version
of the Metasys Fire Network firmware/software.
Improper system operation will result if the
versions are not the same.
All software part numbers are not compatible with
each other. Improper mixing of software part
numbers can compromise life safety functions.
If unsure about the compatibility of a particular
software combination, consult the Field Support
Center (1-888-281-3792).
