NOTIFIER ONYX Series UniNet 2000 Integrated Facilities Monitoring Network
Instruction Manual
General
UniNet® 2000 is the next generation in advanced technology to monitor and
control security, fire, card access, CCTV, and other facility information over
a proprietary LonWorks™ network. UniNet 2000 is designed to allow a mixture of
different technologies and manufacturers to operate on the same network. The
LonWorks network supports a variety of topologies and media and is an
industry-standard open architecture. The UniNet 2000 PC workstation is the
operator interface to the UniNet system. It features plug-in applications,
allowingcontinued expansion of workstation and network functions. These
applications can add new features to the software, implement features specific
to certain devices, or even add situation- and facility specific features. The
workstation uses Microsoft® Windows® 2000, providing an easy-to-use and -learn
graphical user interface. The operator is presented with a consistent look and
operation for all monitored equipment. The workstation features customizable
screens and allows a wide variety of configuration options for any situation.
The UniNet 2000 workstation has the ability to monitor multiple local device
networks and remote sites.

SPECIALIZED CLIENT APPLICATIONS
Additional client software applications are also available when using UniNet 2000 for access control, guard tour or automated logic applications. General features of several of these applications are listed below. More detailed information on many of these products is available in data sheets specific to each application.
UniLogic™
UniLogic is a system tool that provides automated response to events based on user defined conditions using simplified Boolean logic.
- UniLogic, as a client of the networked event manager application, monitors events as they occur on the network and performs actions based on conditional statements.
- All conditions and related actions are completely configurable using the Equation Editor provided with the application.
UniGuard™ ACCESS CONTROL
UniGuard is a configuration tool for NOTIFIER card access controllers either on a UniNet 2000 workstation or as a stand-alone system. It can be used to monitor and control. Features include:
- Control multiple door controllers at multiple locations.
- Definable operator accounts and access levels.
- Logging of events to history.
- Specify open and close delay times for doors.
- Define and configure time codes, time code groups, doors, door groups, access codes, holiday codes, and the card database.
- On-screen annunciation of events, including the ability to view information about an event or cardholder
UniBadge ID BADGE CREATION
UniBadge is used to create and print access control and identification badges using information stored in Microsoft Access databases. The administrator can either create or import member information to be saved in the UniBadge member database.
- Graphical definition and configuration of users and profiles, badge templates, template groups, data definition fields, and data source configuration.
- Import member databases from the UniNet 2000 workstation or UniGuard application to use for badge printing
- Supports barcode configuration and printing; supports printing on mag stripe and prox cards with the Fargo® ProL series printers.
- Definable operator accounts and access levels.
- Link data definition fields on badge templates to fields in the data source database.
- Complete control of badge template appearance, including use of static bitmap images, text and graphic fields using included tools.
- Organize badge templates into groups.
- Use with LaserJet® printers for paper copies in portrait or landscape orientation — for personnel files, etc
U2IRM AND U2IM
- The Incident Reporting Module (U2IRM) and Incident Manager (U2IM) are unique software programs designed to log all central station events — alarms and troubles as well as human-generated external events outside the system such as phone calls, radio calls, and 911 calls. To aid in maintaining daily report logs, the reporting system allows all of these various events to be cataloged into incidents. Each incident displayed can be opened and closed by the operator as required, allowing human events and system events to be connected.
- The module provides a completely configurable database manager with optional custom fields that can be used for a variety of purposes. For example, when generating manual incidents outside the scope of the monitoring network (i.e., incidents that do not involve devices of any type), a descriptive field is required. The system-defined fields are likely to reference network devices, while custom descriptive fields such as memo or multi-select fields allow the operator to type in or select predefined descriptions. Applications for multiselect fields include lists of injuries, office visitors, staff assigned to investigate an incident, radio calls describing vehicles, or standard police codes.
- The IRM is also capable of supporting the Windows 2000 dual-monitor function. This function permits two full screens to be opened at all times, for example, the graphics alarm screen along with the Incident Report Manager.
UniTour GUARD TOUR
UniTour is used to facilitate the performance of security tours. Tours are defined as ordered sets of network monitored checkpoints. A minimum and maximum time interval is assigned to each of these points. A guard must move between points within the allotted time and electronically register attendance at each point along the way.
- History log of events received and processed, operator activity and network status information for each tour schedule
- Provides real-time notification of guard tour status as well as an audit trail for guard activity.
- Checkpoints are physical inputs monitored by the network through nodes such as the NION-2DRN, NION-16C48M or NION-2C8M.
- An input device can be a Card Reader (recommended), Key Switch, or Manual Contact Closure.
- Card readers assigned to a guard tour can also be used as access control devices for other employees, allowing free movement to authorized employees while providing UniTour functions.
UniNet-UOL
- UniNet Online (UniNet-UOL) is a web-based application that operates with the UniNet 2000 (version 2.1 or higher) network through your browser’s Internet, intranet, or dial-up connection, allowing remote viewing and monitoring of all your network devices regardless of their make or brand. UniNet Online meets UL and ULC Listing requirements and provides remote read-status of all the NOTIFIER fire panels on your UniNet 2000 network. UniNet Online can also provide event information for a range of fire alarm control panels, security panels, and other systems from multiple vendors. Compatible with version 5.0 or higher of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
UniNet 2000 Device Network Capacities
The standard physical layer of the UniNet 2000 system is a transformer-coupled twisted-pair or fiber-optic cabling operating at 78.5 or 1250 Kbps respectively. Network formats include FT10 (Free Topology) which allows: (a) 8,000 foot (2438.4 m) point-to-point; (b) 6,000 foot (1828.8 m) bus topology with a maximum of 64 nodes; or (c) 1,500 foot (457.2 m) maximum radius from origination with multiple T-taps; or FO-10 optical fiber (using the DFXC network transceiver) for bus-style network segments to a maximum of 10,000+ feet (3048 m) between nodes through message/signal regeneration at 1250 Kbps. Each node is continuously monitored by a network server, and a fault condition will be reported if any node becomes disconnected from the network. The UniNet 2000 architecture can support up to 99 servers in wide- or local-area configurations
