another advantage with radio that a few consultants have liked is that when we install in an essentially open plan, new "spec" building, essentially half dozen call points/ sounders and smokes, then the client moves in and put up loads of partitioning and suddenly wants an L1 system... instead of having to rip out the "cheap 2 zone conventional" and replace with an addressable jobby taking 3 or four weeks, we can just walk in with a box of stuff and re do the system in a day!!

No more than the Apollo wireless interface.

EMS have developed an interface to sit on a Ziton loop, same as the one they developed for Apollo (although I understand the Apollo version works better) therefore you can pick up "X" number of radio devices....
...or the Siemens one (seeing as we're name dropping!!).
They made one for Siemens too ???!!

See... they'll let anybody in the club these days.....!!!
Nope,we have our own which interfaces with our loop.

Richard,

I've edited the above post, I see no need for the links you had inserted advertising your products.  Please refrain from this.

The Apollo is called XPander
Thanks for that I found the link of this stuff

http://www.apollo-fire.co.uk/PDFs/PP2320%20XPander%20Sales%20Leaflet.pdf

Xpander interface accepts max of 15 Xpander wireless devices but are they addressable wirless devices, if one of them triggers or goes faulty would that be noticed by the main panel or the same Xpander address will come up? and in that case Xpander would be considered as a 'wireless zone monitor' then?

Was talking to notifier about their radio "add ons".... sounds bloody good.... anyone used it ??

Apparently it also works on Vega protocol... so you could use a kentec panel and not have to be a distributor.
