Abstract: The invention presents a system and a method that allows clients to communicate with their service providers. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the clients are patients, the service providers are health care professionals (HCP), and the system is used for intelligent remote health care monitoring. Components of the system are deployed over three different networking zones: a public network, a demilitarized zone (DMZ), and a private network.

Abstract: A method for verifying operation of notification appliances on a notification appliance network during low input voltage conditions is provided. An output voltage is supplied to a network and is measured at a control panel. An input parameter is measured at a notification appliance connected to the network. A supply line impedance is calculated for the notification appliance based on at least one of the output voltage and the input parameter. At least one of the supply line impedance, the output voltage and the input parameter are used to determine a pass/fail condition for the notification appliance during a low voltage condition.
