SimplexGrinnell Introduces Internet-based Technology Providing Facility Managers With Online Access to Fire System Information

UL-listed SafeLINC* Enhances Fire Protection and Emergency Notification With Innovative Capabilities That Supplement the Operation of Primary Fire Alarm System

HOUSTON, Texas and WESTMINSTER, Massachusetts - SimplexGrinnell, a business unit of Tyco International Ltd.'s (NYSE: TYC, LSE: TYI, BSX: TYC) Fire & Security Division and a leader in fire protection, life safety and integrated security, introduced a breakthrough technology - an Internet-based communications link that enables facility managers and building owners to use a web browser to monitor the status of their fire alarm system from off-site locations.

Control Solutions, Inc

Simplex* SafeLINC*, a new UL-listed product available from SimplexGrinnell, allows authorized users, through an Internet connection, to access fire alarm system information from a personal computer, laptop, personal digital assistant, or pager. In the event of an alarm or trouble condition, SafeLINC automatically sends an email to designated staff informing them of the situation.

While SafeLINC is an online tool that can be used to remotely view and distribute fire alarm system information, it doesn't affect the operation of the primary fire alarm system or allow any control functions to be performed. Rather, it's an Internet link that: * Provides seamless and secure two-way communications for authorized users to review current system activity. * Automatically emails specified personnel in the event of an alarm. * Lets facility managers select who will receive fire alarm system information - and what information will be sent to them.
