MIP-2/UD
IP Communicator for Burglar Alarm
Panels
General
The MIP-2/UD is a simple communications device that allows
the transmission of alarms generated by a conventional control
panel through any kind of IP network (ADSL, cable, Inter-
net…), at the same time that it keeps the standard telephone
line as a back-up mechanism.
Designed to work with most of the already installed control
panels, the MIP-2/UD allows for a faster and more economic
alarm transmission, improving response times, decreasing
costs and offering value added features such as the super-
vised line functionality that allows the central station to detect if
any of the alarm panels go off-line. At the central station side,
Teldat has designed an IP receiver, the VisorALARM PLUS,
that will integrate seamlessly into conventional central station
architectures
Features
• Allows any Contact-ID Burglar alarm panel to transmit
alarms over IP networks.
• Saves the cost of an 800 number to receive alarms. Trans-
mission is done through a flat rate Internet connection that
is shared with other devices.
• Eliminates the cost of two dedicated phone lines. Only the
customer’s shared IP equipment is required.
• Can use newer low-cost, non-analog, digital telephone ser-
vices such as cable or fiber optics.
• Increases connection supervision to the central station from
the once-a-day test signal to once every 30 - 90 seconds.
• Requires no change to the existing panel configuration. The
IP Communicator connects directly to the primary and sec-
ondary analog panel telephone ports.
• Fast alarm transmission (less than 1 second transmission
time) for better response times to burglar alarms.
• Works over any type of customer-provided Ethernet 10/100
Base network connection (LAN or WAN), DSL modem or
cable modem.
• Data transmits over standard contact-ID protocol but is
secured with the industry’s highest level of encryption (AES
512 bit).
• Supports both dynamic (DHCP) or Public and Private Static
IP addressing.
• Supports dual-destination IP receiver address for high
redundancy configurations: all signals are sent to a second-
ary address should the primary become unavailable.
• MIP-2/UD can be installed inside the alarm panel or inside
its own wall mount enclosure.
• Upload/Download capabilities: Allows central station opera-
tors to manage the remote alarm panels over IP using the
VisorALARM PLUS receiver to manage all the connections,
protocols and additional features. You will be able to pro-
gram, upgrade, download or perform any operation. Teldat
actually supports panels like Vista, Paradox, and Networks.
• Supports an optional third maintenance receiver installed at
the end user’s facility that permits local alarm monitoring.
Alarms are received simultaneously at both the central sta-
tion and the customer’s facility. A filter can be applied to
annunciate specific alarm types such as trouble-only
events.
Easy to Program
There are three ways to configure the IP Communicator:
1. Console terminal using the HyperTerminal™ software
program found on all Microsoft® operating systems.
2. Local or remote Telnet session via Ethernet connection.
3. Windows-based configuration software (shipped with IP
Communicator).
The IP Communicator can be pre-programmed. The program-
mer enters all central-station information and an auto-registra-
tion password. This is saved to the unit’s flash memory. When
the IP Communicator is installed at the site and connected to
the Internet/Intranet, it registers itself with the central station
receiver. This eliminates the need for a PC at the remote site
for programming. The IP receiver at the monitoring station will
automatically configure other parameters during registration.
FOR MOST INSTALLATIONS, THE ONLY REQUIRED PARAMETERS
ARE
:
• Selection of either DHCP or Static IP.
• Destination primary and secondary receiver IP addresses.
• Account identification number (CID).
•Port number.
• Installation password.
All of these parameters are assigned by the central station.
NOTE: See the MIP UD manual for instructions on UL installa-
tions)
Installation Requirements
• Burglar panel compatible with Contact-ID format.
• At least 250mA of electrical power available on the power
supply to use for the MIP UD unit (500mA recommended).
• Ethernet network connector (10/100 Mbps).
• DHCP server present on the local network or an available
IP address to be used with the MIP UD.
• UDP port to use with for the MIP UD communication with
the monitoring station (default port: 80).
• Destination IP addresses of the VisorALARM receivers
where the MIP UD will be sending alarms and other events.
• Panel account ID number (CID).
• Installer password (provided by the monitoring station man-
aging the VisorALARM IP receiver).
