Product description NGP Ultimate is a dual path alarm signalling unit with its own built in hub. It is set up to work with a dedictaed broadband service for transmitting alarm signals from a customer’s alarm panel, via the AddSecure private network, to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) using pass-through mode of operation. Once connected to the platform the unit uses a poll and response check to determine path status. When the primary path fails the secondary path will take up the polling and reporting parameters of the primary path. Individual path fails are transmitted over the remaining path. Dual path failure is platform generated. The NGP Ultimate services comes with account must exist for the unit to a dedicated AddSecure broadband communicate. The TA account will have service using the latest technology been populated with the serial number Figure 1 – NGP Ultimate unit (not to scale) available. of the unit. All services need to be in an Openreach The unit has 16 general purpose served area. alarm inputs, and 3 outputs, making NGP Ultimate uses an IP primary it suitable for connection to most path with dual SIM 4G/2G mobile common alarm panels. The unit is technology as the backup path. supplied already fitted with two The unit is designed for use in both AddSecure enabled SIM cards, one an Security and Fire systems.

Connection advice Example below shows connection via RS 485 to a Galaxy Dimension panel: The unit should be connected to the Honeywell Galaxy panel as shown in figure 11, RS485A to A1 and RS485B to B1. Do not use the secondary data line (if your panel has one – A2/ B2) as it will not work. Ensure that the GND of the unit is connected to the GND terminal on the panel. It is recommended that good quality screened cable (Belden type, CAT5e or equivalent) is used in all wiring of this type to avoid interference on the panel’s NGP Ultimate data bus. A 680Ω resistor should be used at the end of the ‘daisy chain’ line of devices in the normal way, taking care not to exceed the maximum number of devices allowed on that data line. If the unit is fitted less than 5m from the alarm panel then an additional termination resistor is generally not required. The Unit does not have a terminating resistor.
