FAQs
What is the difference between SENTRI2-LPC and SENTRI2-LPC-EN?
The SENTRI2-LPC-EN is specifically designed for newer panels supporting EN54-23 VAD devices, whilst the standard SENTRI2-LPC is intended for older legacy systems. The EN version provides enhanced power capabilities and full EN54-23 compliance.
How many devices can the SENTRI2-LPC-EN support?
The loop card can support up to 100 EN54-23 sensor-sounder-strobes and manage up to 200 devices in total on a single loop.
What is the maximum loop length supported?
The SENTRI2-LPC-EN supports at least 1km loop length, though the actual limit depends on device distribution and should be confirmed using the loop load design calculator.
Can I use this loop card to upgrade an existing SENTRI installation?
Yes, the SENTRI2-LPC-EN is specifically designed to support the upgrade of existing SENTRI installations to accommodate EN54-23 VAD devices.
Does the loop card provide diagnostic information?
Yes, the loop card automatically measures and displays loop resistance on the control panel, making commissioning tasks easier and providing fault indication if resistance exceeds safe limits.
Is the SENTRI2-LPC-EN compatible with SENTRI4 panels?
Yes, the loop card is compatible with both EN54 versions of SENTRI2 and SENTRI4 systems.
