AlarmCalm is the Unparalleled False Alarm Management Solution from Advanced.

AlarmCalm is powerful and flexible. It’s easy to install and easy to configure, even with complicated cause-and-effect. It’s the best-in-class solution made up of three high performance components that make for perfect False Alarm Management, (FAM

A Fast Fire System

Whilst core aspects of FAM are alarm verification, alarm acknowledgement and investigation delays to outputs, time is of the essence.The fire system, be that single loop, single panel or a 200 node network, needs to react fast. There are issues having a 60 second acknowledgement time set if your network takes 15 seconds to process inputs – that’s 25% of the time available. Advanced is famous for the performance and speed of its networking and our MxPro 5 and Axis fire systems are the foundation for complete, high performance FAM.

The Complicated Made Easy

Complete FAM can involve complicated cause-and-effect. The AlarmCalm option in our DynamixTools Config software makes it very easy to set up FAM and to implement powerful configurations, often in one click. Our systems are famous for their ease-of-use and the AlarmCalm software is the perfect example of our approach.For customers the software update is free and so is the training – not that we think you’ll need it as it’s just easy to use.

Intelligent Alarm Acknowledgement Devices

The Button allows the residents of a building to verify and acknowledge false alarms, one of the most potent methods of false alarm reduction. The AlarmCalm Button is a fully intelligent loop device. It’s compatible with a standard, UK single-gang backbox and installation is quick, inexpensive and looks good. As it’s intelligent the AlarmCalm Button offers multiple configuration options.

Intelligent Alarm Acknowledgement

The AlarmCalm Button is a fully intelligent loop device that allows building occupants to acknowledge a fire alarm signal locally, for example if they believe a smoke detector has signaled an alarm because of burnt toast or water vapour from a shower. The AlarmCalm Button then extends the verification time set in the Building Area by a specified amount, giving time for any transient signal to clear. AlarmCalm Buttons are loop-powered and can be placed at any required address on the loop. On activation the Button starts a pre-programmed 2nd Stage Time.
