DSC PC4020NK MAXSYS 16-128 zone control panel with cabinet
The DSC PC4020NK MAXSYS 16-128 zone control panel with cabinet is DSC’s offering for commercial appliances. The system can handle access control, security, and automation.
This control starts out with 16 on-board hardwire zones and can be expanded up to 128 with zone expansion cards. It can also accommodate 1,500 user codes/cards making it easy for someone who runs an office building or a factory to keep track of the comings and goings of all of their employees.
Not only can the MAXSYS handle a lot of zones and users, but it can also be partitioned into 8 separate partitions giving the owner the capability to make 8 different sections of a building their own separate arming/disarming zones.
Keep track of events that have occurred over a period of time with the MAXSYS’s event log capable of holding up to 3000 log entries. This way you can go back and see who has armed and disarmed the system and what events have occurred while you may have been gone.
With added wireless capability, through a wireless receiver, you can also hit all those areas where running wire is not the best option. And with its full line of add-ons and expansion modules; there’s nothing that this bull of a system can’t do.
This is definitely a must have for anyone who has a large-scale outfit to protect!
Honeywell Lynx Touch L5100
The new Honeywell Lynx Touch L5100 is the upgrade to Honeywell’s Lynx Touch L5000 panel and it’s what a lot of people having been waiting for!
The newest upgrade in the Lynx family will let anyone use the absolute latest in security, home automation, and monitoring options.
The display on the L5100 has been upgraded to resemble the display of the Tuxedo keypad. It will display, upon connection to Total Connect, the weather in your local area.
The first feature that the new L5100 will let you have is the ability to add a full Z-Wave controller just like the one that is already built into Honeywell’s TUXEDO keypad by adding the L5100-ZWAVE Z-Wave® Control Communication Module. The L5100-ZWAVE will allow the L5100 to control the following:
- Up to three thermostats
- Four door locks
- 40 devices (lights, switches and lamp modules)
- 20 scenes
- 20 rules (event based actions)
- 20 schedules (time based actions)
One really cool function of the Z-Wave device is that if you have a Z-Wave lock; you can set the panel up to disarm when a user code is typed into the lock’s keypad. The L5100 will let you have the home automation features that you’ve been wanting with a great security system running behind it to protect your home and belongings.
Another one of the newest features of the upgraded Lynx Touch is the ability for the panel to communicate to a central station monitoring service over the 4G network. With the GSMVLP5-4G the panel can send signal over the world’s fastest wireless network so that your alarm condition get noticed quickly.
They are also have an Android device, the MID-7H, that will allow you to connect to the panel to check system status and control it. This all comes with Honeywell’s Total connect service. Unlike the functionality of some self-monitoring remote control and access you got if you bought their TUXEDO keypad; the L5100 is totally reliant on Total Connect for any remote control and access.
This is a very nice upgrade that Honeywell has made to the Lynx series and it’s just another way Honeywell is staying a step ahead of the pack in the alarm industry.
DSC Impassa Self-contained Wireless Alarm System
The DSC Impassa Self-contained Wireless Alarm System is DSC’s newest offering and is actually the new and improved version of DSC’s old 9047 model. Just like DSC’s 9047; the Impassa is in all-in-one unit, but that’s pretty much where the comparison ends!

You can also use any of the other bi-directional devices such as the WT4911B Wireless Outdoor Siren, DSC-WT4901 2-Way Wireless Indoor Siren, DSC-WT4989 Wireless 2-Way Key Fob, etc.
