Unmanned fire watch does not mean no management at all. Instead, traditional fire alarm control panels are connected to the cloud through a dedicated fire panel cloud platform. This system requires no complicated wiring; only a wireless transmission module needs to be installed, and fire alarm and fault information can be uploaded in real time via 4G/5G networks. On-duty personnel can check the panel status of networked facilities across the city through a mobile APP. When an alarm is triggered, the system automatically pops up a prompt and links to video for verification.
The core breakthrough lies in the APP reverse control technology for fire alarm control panels: after confirming a false alarm, users can remotely mute and reset the panel with a single tap. When testing fire pumps, remote start commands are sent instantly, eliminating the need for on-site operation.
Fire regulations in many provinces and cities, from Beijing to Hainan and Heilongjiang to Guangdong, clearly stipulate that fire control rooms connected to a remote monitoring system capable of performing all control functions may implement single-person duty or even unmanned duty. The national wireless single-person fire watch solution allows one on-duty operator to monitor multiple projects simultaneously, reducing labor costs by 60% while improving emergency response to the second level.
Technology has changed not only the way of watch keeping but also the definition of fire safety. To have someone guarding you every night — that is the promise of remote fire watch.
Wanlin Redefines Fire Control Room Security Boundaries with "Cloud + Terminal + Control"
As night falls and lights in commercial complexes dim; as holidays arrive and machinery in industrial parks stops running — is the "fire safety line" protecting lives and property still solid as a rock?
The mandatory requirement of "24-hour double-person watch" in fire control rooms has put countless property managers in a dilemma: high labor costs, difficulties in recruitment and retention, frequent unapproved absences and sleeping on duty at night, and persistent regulatory pressure. However, a key clause in fire regulations successively issued in Chongqing, Zhejiang, Hainan, Xinjiang, Fujian, Guangxi and other regions is changing this dilemma: "Single-person watch is allowed if all control functions of the fire control room can be operated remotely through an urban fire remote monitoring system."
Policies have created space for downsizing and efficiency improvement in fire control rooms, but technology is the key to implementation. Centered on its fire alarm control panel cloud platform, fire panel APP reverse control, and remote fire watch system, Wanlin Smart Fire Protection has built a national remote single-person fire watch solution, turning "unmanned watch" from vision into reality and providing every fire control room with 24/7 cloud protection.
Traditional fire alarm control panels act as information islands: alarms can only be heard on-site, faults are only detected during inspections, and remote control is out of reach. The launch of the Wanlin Fire Panel Cloud Platform has completely broken this dilemma.
The Wanlin Fire Cloud Platform adopts an advanced layered architecture to ensure system stability, security and scalability:
| Layer | Technical Implementation | Core Value |
|---|---|---|
| Perception Layer | Fire panel transmission modules, lorafire.com">NB-IoT smoke detectors, smart electricity detectors, pressure & liquid level sensors | Multi-protocol compatible, plug-and-play |
| Network Layer | Ethernet, 4G/5G, LoRa, lorafire.com">NB-IoT multi-link transmission | Dual-link redundancy, offline data caching |
| Platform Layer | BS architecture, dual server clusters, disaster recovery backup | High reliability, easy expansion |
| Application Layer | Web, APP, mini-program multi-terminal collaboration | Multi-role, multi-scenario coverage |
The platform uses APIs for communication between monitoring terminals and servers, providing users with unified operation and event interfaces for transparent service operations. The monitoring interface is intuitive, highlights GPS positioning of monitoring objects, and is easy to operate for different users.
The Wanlin Fire Panel Cloud Platform processes millions of fire alarm and fault messages daily and supports access to over 5 million transmission devices with high scalability. Its core functions include:
Multi-project centralized monitoring: Custom headquarters large-screen cockpit, GIS map displaying geographic locations of all projects with status marked by different colors, realizing unified group supervision.
Real-time alarm push: Upon panel alarms, the cloud platform receives data instantly and notifies responsible persons via calls, SMS and APP pushes.
Data analysis & prediction: Big data-based analysis of alarms, faults, start/stop and shielding records, automatic statistics of alarm/fault ratios, and key monitoring of high-frequency alarm points.
Video-linked verification: Automatically invokes security cameras near alarm points for intelligent on-site verification via algorithms.
Intelligent on-duty inspection: Big data query and export for monitoring on-duty status and eliminating absenteeism.
Dual server cluster disaster recovery: Ensures high reliability, easy database and terminal expansion, and unified centralized management of local fire networks.
| Version | Core Positioning | Application Scenarios |
|---|---|---|
| Network CRT Cloud Platform | Multi-project centralized monitoring, headquarters large-screen cockpit | Vanke Property, large enterprise groups |
| Intranet CRT Cloud Platform | Local deployment, data privacy | Government agencies, military enterprises |
| Maintenance Supervision Platform | GPS positioning, work order system, response time monitoring | Fire maintenance companies, third-party operators |
| Manufacturer Cloud Platform | Multi-brand equipment access, big data analysis | Fire equipment manufacturers |
While the cloud platform achieves visibility, APP reverse control realizes full controllability. Provincial single-person watch regulations specify that remote operation of all control functions is mandatory, making remote control a standard requirement for compliance.
Wanlin’s self-developed "Fire Management" APP supports alarm alerts, push notifications, remote control, personnel management, online check-in and real-time equipment query.
The key to reverse control lies in Wanlin’s user information transmission device with reverse control functions. Authorized managers can remotely perform via the cloud platform or APP:
Remote muting and resetting for false alarms
Remote starting of linked equipment (fire pumps, smoke exhaust fans) in emergencies
Remote parameter setting (detector sensitivity, linkage logic)
Remote self-inspection to maintain normal system status
Commands are sent via the cloud to the transmission device, forwarded to the fire panel via RS485/CAN bus, and execution results are fed back to the cloud in real time.
Real-time alarm push with sound, SMS, call and WeChat alerts
Remote panel control (mute, reset, start linked equipment)
Video-linked verification for on-site confirmation
Online check-in with attendance recording
Customizable homepage for quick access to key data
GIS positioning and one-click navigation to alarm points
