Parallel Communication
Parallel communication can be accomplished as follows:
• If using single-socket communication modules (IP and GPRS/GSM), one of the
modules is connected to the Cloud, while the other module is connected directly
(for example, for reporting to the monitoring station). Each single-socket module
supplies a single communication channel, thus providing the “parallel”
communication capabilities by utilizing the two modules.
• If using multi-socket modules (IP, GSM 2G, GSM 3G) a single multi-socket
module provides multiple communication channels simultaneously (“in parallel”)
– for example, for user reporting via the Cloud while simultaneously reporting to
the monitoring station directly. If two multi-channel modules (IP and GSM) are
installed, each module provides its own parallel communication capabilities.
Backup Communication
Backup communication can be accomplished as follows:
• If using single-socket communication modules (IP and GPRS/GSM), a total of
two communication channels are available – one channel per module, which can
utilize a variety of reporting frameworks – directly, and through the RISCO
Cloud (for example, one channel reporting to the user via the Cloud, while the
other channel simultaneously reporting directly to the monitoring station). Each
of these modules can be used for the primary communication channel or as a
non-Cloud backup, but Cloud backup is not available. NOTE: PSTN can also be
used as a backup or primary channel to the monitoring station.
• If using multi-socket modules (IP, GSM 2G, GSM 3G), any individual
multi-socket module installed can provide multiple, simultaneous
communication channels with a variety of reporting frameworks, both directly
and through the RISCO Cloud – for example, one channel reporting to the user
via the Cloud, while the other channel simultaneously reporting directly to the
monitoring station. If both IP and GSM multi-socket modules are installed,
when utilizing direct communication either of the modules can take over and
connect as a communication failure backup if the other fails. NOTE: PSTN can
also be used as a backup or primary channel to the monitoring station.
