The NOTIFIER NCA-2 is a second-generation Network Control Annunciator for the NOTI•FIRE•NET™ network, compatible for use with ONYX® Series nodes such as the NFS2-3030, NFS-3030, NFS-320, NFS-640 and NFS2-640 fire alarm control panels, and first-generation NCA Network Control Annunciators. Additionally, the NCA-2 may be configured with DVC Series products to create one or more Digital Audio Command Centers on NOTI•FIRE•NET. The NCA-2 provides system control and display capabilities for all, or for selected network nodes. The NCA-2 display consists of a 640-character backlit LCD display, and a control interface consisting of “soft” keys used to navigate screen menus, “hard” keys with fixed control functions, and a QWERTY keypad. When connected to one or more networked panels the NCA-2 provides network control and status/history display capabilities. It may also be configured as the Primary Display for displayless nodes on the network.
