The range of a Ricochet enabled wireless system is greater than previous systems, with multiple devices capable of relaying messages to and from even the most remote locations in a building.

Each Ricochet enabled device provides signalling routes to and from Texecom Premier Control Panels. Should wireless connection between two devices weaken, the network will 'self-heal' and automatically re-route communications via alternate RICOCHET enabled devices. With more Ricochet enabled devices installed, the greater the reliability of the system.

Smarter
Multiple signal routes adapt to the environment instantly. Signal Security measurements provide peace of mind. Do more with wireless; be smarter.

Further
Adding devices increases the range of the system making extra repeaters no longer required. Let Ricochet mesh technology take you further.

The most basic and simple feature is the device commission mode. Once a device has been connected onto a system, the device LED flashes to indicate adequate communication to the wireless expander. This is made possible by the bi-directional signalling across the mesh‑network and turns each device into its own signal strength meter.

The Commission Mode feature is the most simple, quick and easy method of installing a wireless security system.

Keypad Diagnostics
The next level of diagnostic support is an engineer’s keypad facility. Any Premier LCD keypad can simply be connected to Ricochet enabled wireless expander and a host of diagnostic features is made available. Devices can be learned or removed from the system, signal strength information and communication routing information is all available on-screen. All the different device attribute features can be programmed from this menu structure.

The latest version of Premier Elite Series control panel software provides diagnostic support directly from the control panel interface.

PC Software
The most advanced diagnostic tool is the PC-based Ricochet Monitor software. This software, when installed on a laptop and connected to a Ricochet enabled wireless expander, provides greater visibility and control over the wireless system performance than ever before.

From a simple, intuitive menu screen all device status is available at a glance, with clear graphics highlighting signalling performance. Device attributes can be configured and distributed across the network in seconds thanks to an innovative ‘global poll’ function that communicates to all devices within moments.

Where the Ricochet Monitor software really excels is with the graphical representation of the mesh-networking system. The system literally ‘comes alive’ when the graphical function is selected. Each device is shown on screen, in real time, placed according to where the device communicates across the network. It is instantly visible and clear which routes communication signals are taking and the overall network performance is demonstrated.

With the power of the graphical user interface, even complex systems can be diagnosed simply, providing confidence that the communication platform is robust and reliable.

The RFID proximity tag is ideal for use with compatible keypads, freeing up the wireless keyfob to control outbuildings or to act as a dedicated panic alarm.

The Premier Elite SmartKey connects to wireless systems that feature Ricochet Mesh Technology.
Ricochet enabled wireless devices receive and repeat messages from other devices. The size, scalability and range of the entire system are extended as wireless signalling is no longer limited by point-to-point communications.
