Overview:
1)The control panels on a Cooper fire network communicate using pre-configured network variables and cannot normally be used with a BMS where binding is required.
2)The (EC200) dual-channel LonWorks BMS interface is an “add-on” to the network which translates the pre-configured network variables to a set of un-configured network variables which can then be bound to a BMS, giving full access to the fire network data.
3)The gateway has 2 channels:
Channel 1 – connects to the Cooper fire network
Channel 2 – connects to the BMS

Features:
1)Allows a Cooper fire network to be controlled by a LonWorks enabled BMS
2)Uses Echelon FT5000 smart transceivers for high noise immunity
3)32 message input buffer
