Johnson Controls Digital Enrollment App Expedites Fire System Maintenance
MILWAUKEE—Johnson Controls, a global manufacturer of smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, has introduced the Johnson Controls Digital Enrollment mobile application (digital enrollment app).
The company claims the new app is the fire detection industry’s first mobile app of its kind for auto-addressing fire detection and alarm devices. Johnson Controls points out that by simply scanning and downloading data via a QR code located on each addressable device, the Digital Enrollment app provides an addressing solution that helps eliminate errors and is faster compared to traditional methods, with no special tools required.
“Today’s busy, understaffed service and maintenance teams need modern user-friendly tools to increase efficiencies wherever possible,” says Martin Schulte-Frankenfeld, senior director of product management, fire detection at Johnson Controls. “The Digital Enrollment app gives teams a tool that makes fire detection system installation and configuration quicker, easier and more reliable than previous methods, right from their smartphones or tablets.”
Johnson Controls Digital Enrollment App Provides Users with Options
The app lets users install and configure addressable fire detection devices like point detectors, notification devices, call points and ancillaries offered under the Johnson Controls brands, including FireClass and Zettler.
The Digital Enrollment app gives users two workflow options for completing a new fire alarm system installation. The recommended option is to create a device list on the mobile app and sync it using the app’s panel configuration tool. Alternately, installers can download the device list from the configuration tool and sync that list with the serial numbers using the mobile app.
“The new Digital Enrollment app makes addressing new FireClass and Zettler fire alarm devices more efficient while making important device data very easy to access,” comments Schulte-Frankenfeld. “This app is an extremely convenient tool for installers who configure fire alarm systems in buildings like hospitals, schools, campuses, offices and more. And since it transfers device data quickly and accurately, building operators and facility managers can do their job with more confidence.”
Johnson Controls also explains that each device’s QR code contains a serial number, SKU (part number) code, model number and manufacturing date. They also provide access to product-specific data such as tech pubs, certificates, pricing and ordering info. In addition to new system installations, the Digital Enrollment app and QR code make it easier to reconcile the replacement of faulty or dirty devices.
The global company adds that users can download the Johnson Controls Digital Enrollment app from the Apple App Store or from Google Play.
