MX1

Inspired by most lovers and artists of science fiction around the globe, the Vigilant MX1 is an advanced, analogue addressable fire indicator panel that provides MX digital detection technology. It complies with AS 7240.2:2004 and NZS 4512 and features an integral Fire Brigade Panel to AS 4428.3.

Introduction
The Vigilant MX1 was originally designed in 1998 for its debut in 2004 for Australian sales to meet the Australian and New Zealand standards. The innovative modular (up to 8 loop) analogue addressable fire indicator panel is certified by EN54-4.

Our VIGILANT® MX1 fire panels can be used to provide cost effective solutions for small to medium fire detection systems, whilst also providing many of the features and functions required for very large industrial and multi-building sites.

Easy to Operate
Operation is straightforward with the VIGILANT® MX1 Fire Detection and Alarm System’s AS 4428.3 Fire Brigade Panel keypad and 4 line x 40 character alphanumeric LCD. It displays clear alarm information including the zone and point numbers, the type of alarm, and a text description of the alarm location. Detailed alarm information is available with a single keypress. The 4-line text display allows easy scrolling through the 99 event alarm buffer. Current faults, disabled (isolated) zones and points, and tests in progress can also be separately recalled. An internal, non-volatile history log stores the previous 900 events, and these can be readily recalled to the LCD. The optional easy-to-read plain language printer output provides a 30 character text description of the event, and a date/ time stamp to allow rapid tracing of events. The printer may be selected to log any or all of: zone events, point events, system events. “Tandem Mode” enables the VIGILANT® MX1 Fire Detection and Alarm System to be operated from a remote computer running Panel MX for training, diagnostic or remote operation purposes.

Fully User-Programmable
The VIGILANT® MX1 Fire Detection and Alarm System is programmed quickly and easily using the SmartConfig Windows® - based programming software. The dual database structure of VIGILANT® MX1 Fire Detection and Alarm System allows updated site-specific configurations to be downloaded while still maintaining full operation. System programming provides a wide range of options including operation of remote displays. Freely programmable mapping of points and sub-points to zones allows maximum flexibility for field wiring. Powerful control programmability is available through timers (second and minute), day/night periods and logic expressions. Text substitutions add meaning to logic expressions to simplify software maintenance. The programmed data can be printed for reference and archived for back-up storage. The site-specific configuration is stored in non-volatile FLASH memory, which remains protected even if the system’s power supply is removed.
