Introduction
Chip key/proximity keyfob/Prox Tag
Electronic "key" for quick access to the building without
code entry.
CLIP
Calling Line Identification Presentation
Coding of wireless signals
Ensures secure transmission of signals without
manipulation or tampering between the alarm panel and
its components.
Contact ID, CID
Protocol for transmitting data to an ARC (alarm receiving
centre).
DD243
British requirement for sequential alarm confirmation.
DHCP
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a
communications protocol in computer technology.
It facilitates the assignment of the network configuration
to clients through a server.
DHCP makes it possible to automatically integrate a
computer into an existing network without having to
configure it manually. The client usually only has to be
set to obtain the IP address automatically. When the
computer starts on the network, it is automatically
assigned an IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS
server by the DHCP server. Without DHCP some
additional settings are required depending on the network
to which the computer is connecting.
Display
Display field on the alarm panel for operating and
configuring the panel.
DNS
The Domain Name System (DNS) is one of the most
important services in many IP-based networks. Its main
task is to respond to name conversion requests.
The DNS works like a telephone directory enquiries centre.
The user knows the domain (the "friendly" computer name
on the IP network), such as "example.org". The user sends
this domain as the query. The URL is then converted by
the DNS into the associated IP address (the "connection
number" on the IP network), e.g. an IPv4 address in form
192.168.2.21 and directs it to the correct computer.
16
Double end of line (DEOL)
Wiring version for wired alarm systems; wired zones also
take on this configuration.
Wired detector
Alarm and danger detectors that are connected via wire
to the alarm panel.
Wired zone, wired alarm zone
Alarm zone monitored via one or more wired detectors
(usually switched in series).
DTMF
Dual Tone Multi-Frequency
The multi-frequency dialling method is commonly used by
analogue telephone systems.
Intruder alarm system, burglar alarm system
Alarm system that detects an intrusion and triggers
an alarm.
Individual identification of detectors
Makes it possible to determine exactly which detector
has triggered (see also wireless alarm zone).
EN 50131
European standard for alarm systems, "Intrusion and
hold up systems"
External alarm
(Alarm type)
Alarm to which all sounders (internal and external)
respond when triggered. An alarm receiving centre is
also notified of the event.
Shock detector
This detector identifies vibrations that occur when an
attempt to break in is made.
Fast Format, FF
Protocol for transmitting data to an ARC (alarm receiving
centre).
Remote access/remote configuration
Servicing/configuration of the alarm panel from outside of
the monitored premises (e.g. via the internet).
Wireless alarm system
Alarm system with detectors that are connected to
the alarm panel wirelessly (quick and easy installation,
high flexibility).
