The Commissioning phase is usually the most Time/Labor intensive phase in the Fire Safety System life cycle as the process involves referring to the Building floor plan document (as provided by the Installer) and creation of Areas/Zones and carefully assigning each fire device (viz. Smoke/Heat detectors, MCP etc.) to the corresponding zones in the Panel configuration software to configure the Fire Panel. The overall process easily spans for multiple days based on the Building network complexity. The present invention provides a system, apparatus and method for rapid commissioning by providing a graphical interface in which device addresses can be uniquely allocated using an interactive screen. This avoids double address faults which can be time consuming to identify and rectify. Geographic information of the devices can also be identified and incorporated using the interactive screen.

System and method for device address assignment in an alarm system using interactive address assignment for faster commissioning

Systems and methods are provided that can include displaying a floor plan on a graphical user interface, receiving a first user input identifying a respective location of each of a plurality of zones of the secured area via the floor plan displayed on the graphical user interface, receiving a second user input identifying a respective evacuation route to an emergency exit from each the plurality of zones via the floor plan displayed on the graphical user interface, identifying a respective distance factor from each of the plurality of zones to the emergency exit via the respective evacuation route, identifying a respective relative distance from each of the plurality of zones to a selected one of the plurality of zones, and multiplying the respective distance factor by the respective relative distance for each of the plurality of zones to identify a respective alarm sequence factor.

Systems and methods for commissioning a security system

Devices, methods, and systems for infrastructure-less indoor navigation in a fire control system are described herein. One device includes a non-transitory computer readable medium having computer readable instructions stored thereon that are executable by a processor to receive a location of each of a plurality of smoke detectors of a facility, display the location of each of the plurality of smoke detectors in a building information model (BIM) on a user interface, wherein each respective one of the displayed plurality of smoke detectors represents a different smoke detector of the plurality of smoke detectors of the facility, receive a selection of a first displayed smoke detector of the plurality of displayed smoke detectors representing a first smoke detector of the plurality of smoke detectors of the facility, and guide a user to the location of the first smoke detector of the facility responsive to receiving the selection.

Infrastructure-less indoor navigation in a fire control system

Methods, devices, and systems for fire system rule generation are described herein. In some examples, one or more embodiments include a memory, and a processor to execute instructions stored in the memory to receive a rule input condition and a rule output condition for a fire control system of a facility, generate a fire system rule for the facility based on the rule input condition and the rule output condition, and transmit the fire system rule to a fire control panel of the fire control system of the facility.
