In line with its program of continuous product development, Kentec releases a new firmware version 1.0.13 for the Vizulinx Fire Alarm management module. Firmware version 1.0.13 replaces the current firmware version 1.0.11 and provides the following new features:

Vizulinx now provides full support for Taktis EN & Taktis UL addressable fire alarm panels. Connection of Vizulinx to Taktis is via IP and to achieve this the Taktis panel must have a media gateway card fitted.

Hydrosense Leak Detection Control Panel

Vizulinx communication methods have been expanded by providing support for USB Wi-Fi GSM dongles. These dongles enable the Vizulinx to connect to the internet via Wi-Fi allowing Vizulinx to send emails and text status messages.

Vizulinx is fully compatible with the UL approved range of Kentec panels. Elite, Elite RS and Taktis UL an amendment has been made to the firmware to ensure that the terminologies used on the UL products are accommodated i.e. Faults are shown as troubles etc.

The Hydrosense leak detection control panel provided by Vimpex has been added to the panel selection menu within the quick start set-up. Although this upgrade is not essential, Kentec always recommends that products in the field should be installed with the latest firmware.
