A position has become available within Inner Range’s technical support division in Melbourne. Reporting to the IT Development Manager, the successful applicant will be responsible for support and testing of a range of electronic equipment and system management software as well as assisting in the support of the company’s computer network.

It is envisaged that the successful applicant will posses the following skills, qualifications and attributes:

The Insight software gets more powerful with the release of version 3. Foremost is the inclusion of the DVR Integration option, which adds powerful DVR support and control. New in V3: * DVR Integration * Scheduler * SQL database

Virtual panel allows management of one to literaly thousands of panels. The new SQL engine easily copes with 100 review events per second.

Inner Range have recently released a LAN based RF Expander module to compliment the range of modules already available. This module is capable of receiving upto 50 RF Fobs (memory config dependant) and 32 individual transmitters. This module uses Visonic Powercode and CodeSecure devices. Each device is learnt to a specific module so overlapping is not an issue on multiple RF Expander sites. The RF Fobs have 4 individually programmable buttons that can be set to: arm/disarm area or area lists, turn on/off or toggle aux's, set an input into alarm, or even to qualify another button press to prevent accidental operation. There is nothing worse than fiddling for something in your pocket and accidentally arming the system or setting off a duress.

A per module low battery warning can be sent to the monitoring station, but individual low battery warnings for each device are recorded in panel review to make for easier locating of offending devices. (Requires V5.10 and above firmware to operate)

Locked out of taking over a site because the customer is using a proprietary site code format? That’s just where the new User Definable Site Codes option available only in firmware V4.5 comes into play.

With card data that is sequential from Most Significant bit to Least Significant bit, you are now able to specify the number and position of site code and card number data through the ‘GENERAL’ option in System Options Programming (Menu 7-5-1). The maximum data length definable is 40 bits (15 characters); the maximum site code length is 19 bits (10 characters); and the maximum number of card bits is 16 (5 characters) which allows up to 65,536 cards.

Inner Range have released a UART board with a single or triple serial connection and one Ethernet Connection. The Ethernet connection removes the requirement to add a third party device when connecting the Concept 3000/4000 panel to an IP Network when using the newly released Insight software. This means connection to panels across the country or even the world is easily achieved by using the internet connection servicing the building or department. (Requires Panel Firmware V5.20 and above)

A systems administrator guide is supplied with the UART board to help answer those niggly network problems related to firewalls. It should answer all the questions a system admisistrator is going to ask before he lets you add the panel onto his system.

Inner Range, as the manufacturer and supplier of Fratech products, is proud to announce the release of the FE3000 Serial GSM Module, a product that provides a GSM and SMS solution that is equal to, or better priced, than any other solution of this type in the market place. Contact your distributor for price details

For the following applications the FE3000 Serial GSM Module has pricing and functionality advantages that will negate any opposition offering. These applications are; · Concept 3000 / 4000 systems requiring GSM back up and / or SMS control and reporting. · Stand alone applications in remote or portable situations that require up to two inputs to be monitored and / or two outputs to be controlled. When used in stand alone applications no external alarm panel is required

Inner Range have released their own fibre modem hardware. This is a multi mode fibre modem for use in situations that require up to 3Km and 10 can be added in series providing a 30 Km solution.

Inner Range is proud to announce that Fratech has become part of Inner Range.. The only noticable change will be that Fratech products will now be labelled - "Fratech by Inner Range". Distributors can expect the same high quality products and service as before. Already we are witnessing the release of powerful products from the Fratech by Inner Range stable in the FE3000 serial. Soon to follow will be the FE3000 backup which is designed to connect to any panel to provide a low cost solution for GSM backup.

The Terminal Interface LAN Module provides an external interface to the Concept 3000/Access 4000 Control Module using simple scripting type programming. Until now, the practice of creating an interface between the Concept system and other software applications and devices has required the involvement of proficient software developers. The release of the Terminal Interface LAN Module, however, now allows the development of relatively simple applications which, in affect, send terminal keystrokes to the Concept system. Suitably competent Installers and System Integrators can now create their own system control applications for use with computer programmes, touch screens, embedded controllers and other devices.

These applications open up a broad range of possibilities within many different market segments, but are especially suited to the Home Automation market. The Terminal Interface LAN Module is compatible with all Concept 3000 / Access 4000 firmware versions, its scope of features determined by the functionality and messages available in each particular version of firmware. Full installation and programming documentation can be found under manuals in the Tech Support pages.
