Fire Alarms

MS-9050UD(E)

Suited for stand-alone applications, the MS-9050UD is ideal for smaller facilities such as apartment complexes, banks, cinemas, child care and elementary schools, department stores, food stores, places of worship, restaurants, small retail outlet stores, and other facilities requiring performance-based, sophisticated technology at reasonable cost.

The Fire-Lite MS-9050UD(E) is a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) and Digital Alarm Communicator/Transmitter (DACT) combined into one circuit board. This compact, intelligent addressable control panel supports up to 50 addressable devices of any type of detectors and modules. With an extensive list of powerful features, the MS-9050UD programs just like Fire-Lite’s larger products, yet fits into applications previously served only by conventional panels.

The MS-9050UD’s integral DACT transmits system status (alarms, troubles, AC loss, etc.) to a Central Station via the public switched telephone network. It also allows remote and local programming of the control panel using the PK-CD Upload/Download utility. In addition, the control panel may be programmed or interrogated off-site via the public switched telephone network. Any personal computer with Windows™ 95 or greater, and compatible modem with a speed of 14.4 kbps or faster and Fire-Lite Upload/Download software kit PK-CD, may serve as a Service Terminal. This allows download of the entire program or upload of the entire program, history file, walk-test data, current status and system voltages.

The power supply and all electronics are contained on a single circuit board supported on a new quick install chassis and housed in a metal cabinet. Available accessories include local and remote upload/download software, remote annunciators, and reverse polarity/city box transmitter. (4XTMF)

New options include a UL listed printer, PRN-6F and the new IPDACT Internet Monitoring module. The FireWatch Series internet monitoring modules IPDACT-2 and IPDACT-2UD permit monitoring of alarm signals over the Internet, saving the monthly cost of two telephone lines. Although not required, the secondary telephone line may be retained providing backup communication over the public switched telephone line.

NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, the term MS-9050UD is used in this data sheet to refer to both the MS-9050UD and the MS-9050UDE FACPs. For MS-9050UDC, refer to DF-60445.
