This sophisticated wireless ready alarm kit practically eliminates guesswork when selecting accessories and you have the option of expanding with additional hardwire accessories giving you the best of both worlds. Best of all, this wireless alarm kit costs less than half of what it would cost to buy the system component-by-component.
The DSC Power 1832 wireless security system is the second of three new Power Series systems recently released by DSC. It features 8 hardwire zone inputs out of the box and a total of 32 hardwired or wireless zones. Supports up to 8 keypads, 32 user codes in addition to a master and supervisor code and has four partitions. The DSC 1832 control panel offers the same easy programming as the old version and is backward compatible with all of the previous generation modules and keypads. They feature a new board design with new firmware and over 100 new program features.
Achieving a balance between reliable security and refined functionality, next-generation POWERSERIES products are sure to electrify the industry by providing unprecedented levels of convenience, comfort and control. Among the new products comprising the updated POWERSERIES product platform are three new control panels. Each control panel shares a universal hardware/software design that ensures an equal and rich feature set and easy future expandability. With near limitless capabilities, the control panels seamlessly integrate with our award-winning Internet and network alarm communicators (T-Link), industry-leading visual alarm verification module (VVM110), SKYROUTE wireless alarm communicator and other specialty modules, wireless devices and structured cabling solutions. If you’re already familiar with POWERSERIES, the new platform will be an easy transition for you.
