Tecnofire
The Tecnofire TFA1-298,TFA2-569 and TFA4-1192 are advanced, fire detection systems.
Panel's firmware version 1.3.17 or above is required. TFNET firmware version 1.0.02 or above is required.
The integration with HSYCO is based on a TCP/IP network connection.
Contents
HSYCO Configuration
Add a TECNOFIRE I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:
Communication
- IP Address: the Tecnofire TFNET interface address
- IP Port: TCP/IP port assigned to the TECNO OUT protocol.
High Availability
- Shutdown when inactive: defaults to true.
The code parameter in Options is actually mandatory. The I/O Server cannot start without this parameter.
The model, master-slave configuration and individual panels configuration is automatically detected at start-up. The Tecnofire I/O Server must be restarted to detect configuration changes to the Tecnofire units.
Options
| ID | Default | Values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| code | code | the user code that the driver uses when sending commands to the Tecnofire system. It must be a valid user code | |
| startupevents | false | true | generate IO events also during the driver’s start-up phase |
| false | start generating events only after HSYCO is aligned with the current status of the system | ||
| gui | true | true | enable support of the Tecnofire Web interface object |
| false | disable support of the Tecnofire Web interface object | ||
| userlogs | false | true | generates logs that can be viewed with the userlist object, and can be selected to generate user events |
| false | logs for userlist objects disabled. Normal text logs are generated even when this option is false | ||
| logsize | 50 | n ≥ 0 | the number of log events shown in the Tecnofire log userlist object |
| pass | string | the passphrase used to encrypt the TCP/IP traffic. If the Tecnofire system doesn’t support the passphrase, you should omit this parameter | |
| polltime | 1000 | n ≥ 0 | the data polling interval, in milliseconds. Shorter time improve the response of the system, but increase the load on the CPU of both HSYCO and the Tecnofire system |
Datapoints
| ID | Value | R/W | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| connection | online | R | connection established |
| offline | R | connection failed |
User Interface
Tecnoalarm Object
The user interface for the Tecnoalarm multi-area intrusion detection system:
The Tecnoalarm object is listed in the Project Editor’s new object list only when at least one Tecnoalarm I/O Server is defined.
Parameters
- server id: the server ID. Supports Redirect variables
- position: the object's position. Use the pixels or rows and columns coordinates format
Syntax
(tecnoalarm <server id>; <position>)
E.g.
(tecnoalarm serverid; x10y20)

| alarm.label | visible | true when the alarm is active, false otherwise | |
| tamper.label | visible | true when a tamper alarm is active, false otherwise | |
Log Files
A permanent record of all the events shown in the log page is saved in a file called security.log in the logs/YYYY directory for the current year.
This file is never overwritten or deleted by HSYCO.

- added support for TP20-440
3.4.0
- output.N command data point not working
- fixed a bug that caused HSYCO to crash when the code and/or model mandatory parameters were not defined
