This example explains how to use the FireLink FACP or Gemini C-Series (GEMC) control panels as a slave Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (DACT) connected to a 3rd party fire alarm system. This can be done using a GEMC-32 conventional kit as a standalone fire alarm communicator, using a FireLink FACP, or by adding a GEMC-FK1 Fire keypad, a Fire input module and a second commutation path to a GEMC Burg-only application. Note: The Gemini GEMC control panel must be running firmware V84A or later.
