HAES Esento Network Communications Card (CON-Comcard)

The HAES CON-Comcard Network Communications Card allows up to eight Excel (XLEN) or Evoque (XL32) conventional control panels to be networked.

Any combination of panel can be used from a 2 zone to a 32 zone and in any order to provide up to 256 conventional or Twin Wire zones.

The card simply plugs in on top of the main circuit board in the control panel. In addition to the eight control panels up to eight repeater panels or remote display units can also be added to the network. 

The networking has been designed to be wired in a fault-tolerant (fail safe) loop configuration, from comms A to B and back to the main panel again. If replacing an older system where the existing cabling cannot be configured in a loop as above, it is possible to re-program the master panel back to legacy RS485 circuit comms monitoring. This then allows any topology of comms cabling to be utilised.

The cards are also provided with six programmable switch negative outputs which can be utilised for any local switching requirements.
