The Remote Display and Operation Panel ABF600-1 is a remote tableau for the operation of a Fire Detection Control Panel BCnet600 and for the indication of its events. It offers the same ease of use and, using LED displays and a graphics display, indicates the same information as a sectional control panel that can be operated. Depending on the parameter setup of the ABF600-1, all or selected BCnet sectional control panels can be operated, and the events of all or of selected sub-areas are indicated. The remote display and operation panel is integrated into the networked Fire Detection Control Panel BCnet600 via the redundant high-security network net600. The network technology used and the consistent ring-shaped cabling guarantee communication between the network members even in the event of a single line fault. The flat wall mount cabinet allows for an easy mounting in virtually any place of the building. The Remote Display and Operation Panel ABF600-1 is supplied with electrical power by an adjacent BCnet sectional control panel. If the optional Key Switch SCH70-1 is installed, the menu operation can be unblocked by means of a key instead of a code.
