If your facility operates an Edwards EST2 or EST3 fire alarm system, now is the time to understand your upgrade options and develop a plan for the future.
Fire Alarm Migration Info
Why Plan for Migration Now?
Fire alarm systems are long-term investments, but as technology evolves, older platforms eventually become more difficult to support and maintain.
Planning Your Migration
Planning a migration before an unexpected system issue occurs gives facility owners more time to evaluate their existing equipment, understand their options, establish budgets, and develop an upgrade timeline that minimizes disruption.
Developed Migration Strategies
Edwards has developed migration strategies for its legacy life safety platforms with an emphasis on protecting existing investments and maintaining compatibility where possible.
What does our fire alarm migration process look like?
We evaluate your existing Edwards EST2 or EST3 fire alarm system and configuration.
We'll then determine what existing equipment and infrastructure may be suitable for continued use and what may require replacement.
Next, a plan is developed for appropriate migration strategy, project scope, budget, and timeline.
Finally, you'll work with our Scutum fire alarm team to implement the approved migration plan.
Edwards EST2 System
An upgrade may not mean starting over.
Edwards developed upgrade options for EST2 systems designed to reuse portions of existing system infrastructure in compatible applications.
Depending on the configuration of your existing EST2 system, certain detectors, modules, notification appliances, field wiring, and other infrastructure may be candidates for continued use as part of an upgrade.
Because every EST2 installation is different, Scutum recommends evaluating the existing system before determining the appropriate migration path.
An EST2 system review can help determine:
• What equipment is currently installed
• What existing infrastructure may be reusable
• What components may require replacement
• The appropriate migration path
• Potential project scope and budget considerations
• A realistic migration timeline
