VISTA Gateway Module (VGM)
Access Control Interface
• 8 bit microprocessor.
• EEPROM based configuration storage.
• Echelon Network interface implemented with an Echelon
transceiver.
• An ADEMCO Expanded Console Protocol (ECP) port
consisting of a four wire interconnect: power, ground, data
transmit, and data receive.
• An ADEMCO Contact ID Dialer interface uses the ADEMCO
Contact ID report format to communicate with a central
station.
• VGM allows existing central station automation equipment to
accept and recognize access control related events and
differentiate them from burglar and fire alarm activities.
• VGM accepts power from both VISTA panels and PassPoint
systems so that in the event of a power loss on either system,
the other can operate the VGM unit.
FEATURES:
The VISTA Gateway Module (VGM) provides an interface
between the ADEMCO VISTA fire/burglary alarm system
and Honeywell’s PassPoint Access Control System.
Cross-functional user requirements such as card swipe
to arm/disarm now become a simple reality. VGM by
itself provides a Dialer for your PassPoint system to
send Contact ID information to a central station.
