NFW-50X Intelligent Addressable FACP with Communicator

General
The FireWarden-50X (NFW-50X) is the latest intelligent address-
able fire alarm control panel (FACP) within the FireWarden Series
and is a direct replacement for the FireWarden-50 (NFW-50). The
NFW-50X comes with a pre-installed communicator and supports up
to 50 addressable devices in any combination of detectors or mod-
ules. With an extensive list of powerful features, the NFW-50X pro-
grams just like FireWarden-100 products, yet fits into applications
previously served only by conventional panels.
The pre-installed IPOTS-COM is a dual technology (POTS and IP)
communicator. The POTS transmits system status (alarms, troubles,
AC loss, etc.) to a Central Station via the public switched telephone
network. The IP communicator’s internet monitoring capability sends
alarm signals over the Internet saving the monthly cost of two dedi-
cated business telephone lines. Although not required, the second-
ary telephone line may be retained providing backup communication
over the public switched telephone line. Optional cellular reporting is
available using the CELL-MOD or CELL-CAB-N.
Remote and local programming of the control panel is possible using
the FS-Tools Upload/Download utility. Programming databases can
be uploaded/downloaded via the panel’s USB port (and USB cable) • One-person audible or silent walktest with walktest log & printout
or via an ethernet connection using the IPOTS-COM communicator. • System alarm verification selection per detector point
The USB port also allows for the download or upload of the entire • PAS (Positive Alarm Sequence) and Pre-signal per point (NFPA
