The TWINFLEX®pro System
The TWINFLEX
®
pro system is an intelligent ‘2-wire’ system utilising a conventional type cabling format.
The system is classed as ‘Analogue non-addressable’ due to the architecture used within the design. All
field devices including sounders can be connected to the zone via a common 2-core screened cable.
The devices communicate with the control panel using the ‘TWINFLEX
®
’ data protocol.
Repeater Panel, Remote Display Unit (RDU)
The TWINFLEX
®
pro repeater panel is smaller than the TWINFLEX
®
pro control panel.
It does not itself connect to or control detection devices. Instead, it connects to a control panel and
reports events which occur on the control panel.
It can also perform system controls over the network (i.e. Silence Alarms, Reset, Sound Alarms &
Silence Buzzer).
A maximum of 8 repeater panels can be connected to a single control panel.
