Pyronix has announced that the UR2-WE wireless expander now features dual-frequency, HUD/MED-WE compatibility and a fail-safe fault relay (Product code: UR2-WE).
These new features enable the latest UR2-WE to switch between wireless channels to avoid jamming, for up to 20 HUD devices to be added and for the control panel to be notified if the device experiences a power loss fault.
The UR2-WE is a wireless expander that enables installers to add Pyronix two-way wireless devices to any brand of wired control panel with an arm/disarm output. This is ideal for retrofit or upselling to existing systems, where wireless expansion can be added to cover extensions, outbuildings and more.
So, whether installing new or upgrading existing systems, the installer can use the UR2-WE to add up to 10 wireless sensors or 6 wireless keyfobs per channel (as each wireless channel can either support sensors or keyfobs, but not a combination of the two – therefore, you can add up to 20 sensors or 12 keyfobs to the installation).
With the addition of dual frequency, if all the wireless devices learned onto the UR2-WE are working on wireless channel 1 and the UR2-WE detect a wireless jamming signal, it will switch all its devices over to wireless channel 2 to prevent the learned devices from being jammed and to maintain performance.
Meanwhile, by wiring its fail-safe fault relay to an input of the control panel, should the UR2-WE lose power, the fault relay will open and notify the control panel of the power loss fault, so that action can be taken and security maintained.
