CAUTION: When detectors are located outside the protected area, the air flow
should be exhausted back into the protected area, if possible, to avoid issues
with pressure differentials between the locations.

Using the PipeIQ software, users and administrators can monitor networked
FAAST detectors. A FAAST detector may be monitored either using the PipeIQ
software or an Ethernet connection and a web browser (see the Web Browser Ac-
cess section instructions relating to the Web Access function).
PipeIQ offers the ability to check the status of the FAAST device, track events,
view message logs and look for trends. The user has access to stored and live
events. Graphs can be generated for the smoke level of the selected FAAST
detector in real time or over a selected period of time.
Note: This section describes the Administrator level monitoring functions of
PipeIQ. To connect PipeIQ to a FAAST device refer to the Connect section of
this manual. In the Read-Only mode, some operating functions are restricted.
