1. Introduction
The Syncro is an analogue addressable fire detection and alarm control panel approved and certified by
BSI to meet the requirements of EN54-2: 1997.
It is capable of covering a maximum of 96 zones (500 zones on a network) with 2 or 4 detection loops and
126 devices per loop for Apollo protocol and 127 devices per loop for Hochiki protocol.
Syncro also supports loop-powered sounders & beacons.
Any number of devices can be allocated to any zone ensuring that any system configuration can be easily
accommodated.
Each detection device is allocated a message of up to 40 characters (including spaces) to assist in the
location of the devices.
The Syncro control panel offers an extensive list of features and options for the control and monitoring of
plant, equipment and sounders.
The range of compatible devices includes optical and ionisation smoke sensors, heat sensors, multi-
sensors, switch monitors and relay or bell controllers. Interfaces to conventional detection systems can
also be catered for using zone-monitoring devices.
