8.5 SAFEDLINK networking
The ↑ stations are networked in compliance with EN 54 via the ↑ system bus
FCnet/SAFEDLINK. Data exchange is possible between all stations connected to
the ↑ SAFEDLINK system bus. This makes system-wide operation, control and
alarming possible.
Features of networking via ↑ SAFEDLINK
● Wiring using wire pairs
● Redundant transmission paths thanks to loop-shaped wiring
● Increased security thanks to degraded mode capability
● No additional degraded mode cabling required, even with more than 512
detectors in the system

Depending on the prevailing conditions, the transmission speed of the system
may have to be changed from 'Standard' to 'Low' in the configuration settings of
SintesoWorks, e.g., if cables of inferior quality are used.
