Taktis is a new concept in life safety system management. Beyond its capabilities as a fire detection and alarm system that is simple to use and understand, Taktis is designed to deliver a wide range of other control and indication applications, with seamless integration to a building’s management system.

Taktis Fire is an all-new range of networkable, fire control panels ranging from two loops to 16 loops with a touch-screen, full colour graphical LCD for fire detection, system monitoring and platform configuration.

Taktis Vision is a range of configurable touch-screen annunciator panels for system status indication of functions, such as sprinkler indicators and lift alarms.

Taktis Virtual Resource is a suite of software based tools that provide a complete systems management environment to drive efficiency savings through service management, allowing detailed data to be collected from connected fire alarm systems and stored for later analysis, while also demonstrating traceability of documentation and driving efficiency savings through service management.

Remote access and management, with intelligent analysis of collected data, allow Taktis users to realise many extensive networking applications, with direct integration into intelligent buildings and remote systems interrogation via the user’s preferred channels, exploiting the power of the Internet and GSM, including instant messaging to any number of e-mail or SMS recipients.

Taktis has been designed to add value to system designer, integrator, service provider and the end user. Developed from the ground up by one of the industry’s leading design teams and using the most advanced technology available.
