MiniAir 2 is a single-path signalling solution that utilises a 4G/LTE-M path to signal an alarm from protected premises to an ARC. It comes with a standby SIM as a backup to safeguard the system, if the active SIM fails. Both SIMs operate on an independent network from the other for total resilience. It is designed for both residential and commercial premises as an affordable upgrade from a digital communicator to secure signalling.
Getting started
Provided with the MiniAir 2 is a quick instruction guide that provides detail on how to connect the unit to a system in multiple different ways. The paper handout is also easily found on CSL DualCom’s website under the associated product.
The unit is constructed of a hard plastic material and is pre-installed with a fixed fly lead for easier installation. The product is more than suitable for any in-panel installation.
The unit can be set up to suite most applications where signalling is required. The device was easily set-up on the modern control panels it was tested on, as well as the older, legacy systems. The device is able to be set up easily by one of the following methods:
- Connected directly to the panels digi-modem
- Dial Capture
- Connected to an armed status output – typically a bell output
The device can also be easily configured for a remote arm and disarm and connected to the end user application.
