068200BD SILENT KNIGHT

The 068200BD Silent Knight replacement control board restores full operation to your existing 6820 Addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel while delivering upgraded communications and field-programmable capabilities. Engineered as a direct factory match for the 6000 Series platform, this main board integrates seamlessly into legacy enclosures, preventing costly full-cabinet replacements.

Modernized Connectivity and Expansion

Replacing outdated serial-only connections, the unit ships with built-in dual-path IP and POTS communication. It natively supports SWIFT® wireless device integration and accepts newer cellular side-car modules for uninterrupted emergency signaling. Field-upgradeable firmware keeps installations aligned with current NFPA and UL requirements without physical hardware swaps.

Expanded Outputs and Local Annunciator

Two independent notification appliance circuits provide 2.5 amps each, delivering sufficient load capacity for extended horn/strobe strings in medium-to-large facilities. An integrated 4×20 annunciator panel includes an 80-character digital display and navigational buttons for instant trouble/alarm status viewing, zone isolation, and loop diagnostics directly at the control enclosure.

Streamlined Programming and Setup

A native USB programming port replaces legacy RS-232 cabling, cutting initial commissioning time. The board communicates directly with JumpStart™, HFSS engineering software, and the SKST selection utility to automate device addressing, configure logical pathways, and schedule recurring operations such as programmable daylight-saving time offsets.
