Intrusion areas on a Bosch intrusion panel can be remotely triggered from Security Center by configuring a virtual output point in RPS
and Config
Tool. This allows Security Center users and actions to trigger intrusion panel
workflows, such as activating horns and sirens, or contacting the authorities.
Before you begin
In the
POINTS section of the Bosch Remote Programming Software (RPS), create a
new point and set the
Point Source to
Output for each point on the panel that
you want to use to trigger an alarm. Make sure to configure the profile and area for each
point, so they can then be used in
Security Center to
trigger alarms for the areas that the points are associated with. For more information about
configuring a
Point Source as an
Output using Bosch RPS, see your Bosch
documentation.
What you should know
Triggering intrusion alarms on intrusion detection areas is only supported using Bosch
GV4 panels with firmware v2, and Bosch B series and G series panels.
