How to choose
First decide what the panel needs to talk to. For a computer on the network, the RE-517ME Ethernet module gives the panel an RJ45 Ethernet connection with TCP server and UDP modes, configured from a web browser, serial console, Telnet or a Windows utility. For a building management system, Ravel offers Modbus converters. Modbus is a common protocol for linking equipment to building systems. The RE-AMB gives Modbus over RS232 and RS485 from an Avani panel, the RE-517TM (Avani) and RE-90TMB (RE-900 series) carry Modbus over TCP/IP, and a further Modbus converter is listed for the conventional range. Ravel states CE approval for the RE-517TM and RE-90TMB.
For alerts on mobile phones, the GSM module for the Avani panel sends notifications with location details to up to 10 mobile numbers, on all events or by priority. For conventional panels, the RE-GVD GSM voice dialer makes preconfigured voice calls and sends SMS alerts to up to 10 numbers, has 2 trigger inputs and 1 relay output, and is set up from an Android app. The RE-517MMC mimic card drives LEDs on a mimic display, with 16 zone outputs expandable to 64 zones, over RS 485 from the Avani panel.
For monitoring on a PC, Avani Soft is Windows graphic software that monitors and controls up to 32 Avani panels from one window, with three user access levels and scheduled backups. Avani CMS is Ravel's central monitoring system for Avani panels, with a status screen for all panels and remote acknowledge, silence and reset. Soft Connect is PC software for RE-900 series conventional panels, in versions for 1, 8, 16 or 32 panels. FPS supplies, installs and configures Ravel networking products in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh.
