The ROC is a controller in itself. It's built for technical/industrial
alarm applications. It's not intended as an add-on for a burg panel,
but we have one application where a panel maker asked us to interface
to a serial port on their system and suck out the reporting data, which
works of course, but is a bit overkill...
The technology we have developed would be perfectly suitable for a
burg panel though, and since we have our roots in the burg industry,
we hope to apply our technology in a panel someday -- just looking for
an opportunity :)
