General

AdvancedLive is a digital visualisation of your physical fire system. All the data on your

Advanced fire system is securely stored in the Cloud and then presented in AdvancedLive.

AdvancedLive is accessible online – wherever you are, whenever you want via computer, tablet or mobile.

If you want to know what is happening on your fire system or remotely mute and reset your panels, silence

and resound your sounders, AdvancedLive removes the need for you to be at the panel.

For installers:

You can:

  • Access a panel’s complete device data from anywhere – both historic and real-time – using any internet-enabled device. You no longer need to be on-site, next to the panel to view its data.
  • View a panel’s complete device history, including when the device was last:
    •  activated
    • isolated
    • tested
    • enabled.
  • Provide real-time system status to clients to show the system is protecting their property, as it should.
  • Access an audit trail to show compliance.
  • Use the data to spot trends and predict potential issues.

For subscribers:

You can:

  • View your system either as a map or in list view, depending on your needs.
  • Identify issues quickly using colour-coded zones and indicators for fire, fault, test and normal operation.
  • View panel device data using an intuitive dashboard that gives you the information you need, in a format that’s easy to understand.
  • See the status of your fire system from anywhere thanks to the AdvancedLive dashboard, which acts as a digital replica of your system.
  • Use tiles down the side of the dashboard to quickly see if any devices need attention.
  • Receive immediate alerts if a fire is detected, giving you maximum time to identify and manage the risk, or take action to avoid costly false alarms.

No, AdvancedLive is only available for use with Advanced panels.

AdvancedLive is ideal for anyone to easily manage their fire system and respond quickly to any issues without needing to be at the fire panel.

Installation

We will create your AdvancedLive account for you when your order is placed and we set up your subscription. We will send the account and sign-in details to the primary user, who can then invite and set up permissions for any additional users.

We will use your SSO (Single Sign-On) provider (if you have one) to sign you into AdvancedLive. If you don’t have an SSO provider, we will set up the account for

you and invite you into AdvancedLive.

You can access AdvancedLive on any internet connected device such as a mobile phone, tablet, laptop, desktop PC or smart TV.

All new devices added to the fire system are identified and included within AdvancedLive automatically. If you have map view, we also have functionality for you

to position the device in the appropriate location for your site.

Connection of your fire system to AdvancedLive requires a next-generation MxPro 5 connected panel with Ethernet port. AdvancedLive requires an internet connection and can be connected to your LAN using a standard RJ45 network cable.

AdvancedLive is accessed via a web browser on any internet-connected device, so does not require installation. For quick access it can be saved as an application on your device.

Features

If a fire is detected, you will be alerted immediately, to give you maximum time to identify and manage the risk, or to take action and avoid costly false alarms.

For complete, up-to-date details of AdvancedLive functionality, please contact a member of our sales team via enquiries@advancedco.com or call +44 (0)345 894 7000.

You can manage your users and first responders within AdvancedLive – this includes inviting new users and revoking access.

As well as live reporting on device status so you can easily see if any devices are with fault or in isolation.

You can also view the details of past fire system events such as faults, tests, and pre-alarm incidents.

This means you can look back over and share all device activity and spot events you might have missed e.g. pre-alarms that triggered and cleared overnight.

We welcome your feedback and you can contact us through the feedback button in the AdvancedLive platform.
