FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60839-7-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 79: Alarm
systems.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

5 OSI reference model
The open system interconnection (OSI) reference model was developed by the International
Standards Organization (ISO) both to provide a commonly agreed way of describing,
understanding and analyzing the various functions of complex communications systems. It also
provides a framework for drafting international standards.
The reference model views the functions of a system as being divided into a number of layers.
There are formally 7 LAYERS (1-7), though layers 0 and 8 are now commonly added as
described below.
The layered structure enables changes to be made to the different functions without affecting
the other layers. In actual systems, some layers may be omitted. Designers are free to
implement the layers individually or to combine them.

60839-7-1 © IEC:2001(E) – 9 –
It was also developed to enable a variety of applications to be operated over any combination

of current or future network technologies without the need for changes in the applications

themselves. Thus, there is a fundamental division in the model so as to provide a stable

boundary between applications and the real networks being used. This occurs at LAYER 3 -

NETWORK layer of the reference model.layers in the OSI reference model are shown below.

5.1 OSI layers
LAYER 0 MECHANICAL is only required in cases where there is a need to specify the physical
shape of connectors and modules that connect directly to each other. An example would be

defining the maximum size and connector arrangements of plug-in digital communicators, so

that manufacturers of control and indicating equipment could have a standard space and

connector layout into which communicators from a number of other manufacturers could fit.
LAYERS 1 to 3 reflect the logical division of the functions in any network. LAYER 1 -
PHYSICAL defines the physical and electrical interface characteristics of the interface to the
actual transmission medium. It provides a totally transparent transmission path. LAYER 2 -
DATA LINK is responsible for any low level formatting of the data into blocks and for the
provision of error detection and/or correction. LAYER 3 - NETWORK provides addressing and
routing in networks with multiple terminals, as well as basic call set-up and clear down
procedures.
LAYER 4 - TRANSPORT - In some applications, these lower levels do not provide all the
transmission features required by the application. Within the context of alarm transmission, this
might apply to the provision of higher levels of error detection and correction, scrambling and
encryption and linking short blocks together to form longer messages. These additional
features are provided in this layer.
The layers above LAYER 4 are concerned with the management and synchronization of the
data, and should be independent of the data transmission systems used. LAYER 5 - SESSION
is used to manage systems where different applications share the same transmission system.
LAYER 6 - PRESENTATION is responsible for changing the format of the data, where the two
end applications have different ways of presenting the data. These two layers are unlikely to
feature in an alarm transmission system.
LAYER 7 - APPLICATION is the top level that provides the actual transmission service to the
application, it is the window through which the application sees the alarm transmission service.
LAYER 8 - NETWORK MANAGEMENT is a common format for the control and management of
transmission equipment, particularly more complex switching and multiplexing equipment. It
can be considered as a specialized, alternative presentation/application layer for use by the
network managers to monitor the transmission system.

5.2 Definition of each layer
Each layer in the reference model is defined by three sets of requirements:

a) the services it provides to, and the interface with the layer above. This includes the way in
which it accepts messages from, and passes messages to the layer above it (or in the case
of the application layer from/to the application itself);

b) the processing functions of the layer;

c) the services required from, and the interface with the layer below. This includes the way in

which it accepts messages from, and passes messages to the layer below it.

Within a single network, the technology employed may vary for different links. Thus, although a
single set of higher level protocols can be applied across the whole of the transmission system,
the lower level layers may be different for each link.
NOTE The OSI specification is contained in ISO 7498-1, Information technology – Open Systems Interconnection
– Basic Reference Model – The Basic Model.
6 General considerations
The intent of standards IEC 60839-7-1 to 7, IEC 60839-7-11, IEC 60839-7-12 and IEC 60839-7-20 is
to define the requirements for the transmission of alarms, alarm system status and control data
between an alarm system and an alarm receiving centre or monitoring centre using serial data
transmission. It includes details of recommended protocols, message struct

FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60839-7-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 79: Alarm
systems.
This bilingual version, published in 2001-11, corresponds to the English version.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

Le modèle de référence pour l’interconnexion des systèmes ouverts (OSI) a été développé par
l’Organisation Internationale de Normalisation (ISO) pour offrir un moyen communément
accepté à la fois pour la description, la compréhension et l’analyse des différentes fonctions
des systèmes de communications complexes. Il fournit également un cadre pour la préparation
de normes internationales.
Le modèle de référence considère les fonctions d’un système comme étant divisées en un
certain nombre de couches. Il y a normalement 7 COUCHES (LAYERS) (1 à 7), bien que les
couches 0 et 8 soient désormais communément ajoutées comme cela est décrit ci-dessous.
La structure en couches permet de procéder à des modifications dans les différentes fonctions
sans affecter les autres couches. Dans les systèmes existants, il est admis d’omettre certaines
couches. Les concepteurs sont libres de mettre en œuvre ces couches séparément ou de les
combiner.

5 OSI reference model
The open system interconnection (OSI) reference model was developed by the International
Standards Organization (ISO) both to provide a commonly agreed way of describing,
understanding and analyzing the various functions of complex communications systems. It also
provides a framework for drafting international standards.
The reference model views the functions of a system as being divided into a number of layers.
There are formally 7 LAYERS (1-7), though layers 0 and 8 are now commonly added as
described below.
The layered structure enables changes to be made to the different functions without affecting
the other layers. In actual systems, some layers may be omitted. Designers are free to
implement the layers individually or to combine them.

– 16 – 60839-7-1 © CEI:2001
Ce modèle avait aussi été développé pour permettre de faire fonctionner différentes
applications avec n'importe quelle autres combinaisons de technologies réseau existantes et à
venir sans avoir besoin de modifier les applications elles-mêmes. Ainsi, il existe une division
fondamentale dans le modèle de manière à fournir une limite stable entre les applications et
les réels réseaux utilisés. Ceci intervient au niveau de la COUCHE 3 – RÉSEAU (LAYER 3 –
NETWORK) du modèle de référence. Les couches du modèle de référence OSI sont
représentées ci-dessous.
5.1 Couches OSI
La COUCHE 0 – MÉCANIQUE (LAYER 0-MECHANICAL) est seulement requise dans les cas
où il est nécessaire de spécifier la forme physique des connecteurs et des modules qui
s’accouplent directement entre eux. On peut donner comme exemple la définition de la taille
maximale et de la disposition des connecteurs des dispositifs de communication numériques
enfichables, pour que les fabricants de centrales puissent avoir un espace et une conception
de connecteur normalisés dans lesquels les dispositifs de communication des autres fabricants
pourraient s’adapter.
Les COUCHES 1 à 3 (LAYERS 1 to 3) donnent la division logique des fonctions dans tout
réseau. La COUCHE 1 – PHYSIQUE (LAYER 1 – PHYSICAL) définit les caractéristiques
d’interface électriques et physiques de l’interface avec le moyen de transmission réel. Elle
donne un chemin de transmission totalement transparent. La COUCHE 2 – LIAISON DE
DONNÉES (LAYER 2 – DATA LINK) assume tous les formatages de bas niveau des données
en blocs et la détection et/ou la correction des erreurs. La COUCHE 3 – RÉSEAU (LAYER 3 –
NETWORK) assume l’adressage et le routage dans les réseaux à terminaux multiples, ainsi
que les configurations fondamentales d’appel et les procédures de remise à zéro.
COUCHE 4 – TRANSPORT (LAYER 4 – TRANSPORT) – Dans certaines applications, ces
niveaux inférieurs ne fournissent pas toutes les caractéristiques de transmission requises par
l’application. Dans le contexte de la transmission d’alarme, ceci devrait s’appliquer à la
fourniture de niveaux supérieurs de détection et de correction d’erreurs, de brassage et de
codage et de blocs de liaison de faible longueur pour former des messages plus longs. Ces
caractéristiques complémentaires sont données dans cette couche.
Les couches au-delà de la COUCHE 4 (LAYER 4) concernent la gestion et la synchronisation
des données et il convient qu’elles soient indépendantes des systèmes de transmission de
données utilisés. La COUCHE 5 – SESSION (LAYER 5 – SESSION) est utilisée pour gérer les
systèmes dans lesquels différentes applications partagent le même système de transmission.
La COUCHE 6 – PRÉSENTATION (LAYER 6 – PRESÉNTATION) assume la modification du
format des données, lorsque les deux applications finales présentent les données de manière
différente. Ces deux couches ne sont pas susceptibles d’intervenir dans un système de
transmission d’alarme.
La COUCHE 7 – APPLICATION (LAYER 7 – APPLICATION) correspond au niveau supérieur
qui fournit le service de transmission réel vers l’application. Elle constitue la fenêtre à travers
laquelle l’application voit le service de transmission d’alarme.
La COUCHE 8 – GESTION RÉSEAU (LAYER 8 – NETWORK MANAGEMENT) constitue un
format commun pour la commande et la gestion du matériel de transmission, en particulier du
matériel plus complexe de commutation et de multiplexage. Elle peut être considérée comme
une autre couche de présentation/application spécialisée destinée à être utilisée par les
gestionnaires de réseau pour surveiller le système de transmission.

60839-7-1 © IEC:2001 – 17 –
It was also developed to enable a variety of applications to be operated over any combination
of current or future network technologies without the need for changes in the applications
themselves. Thus, there is a fundamental division in the model so as to provide a stable
boundary between applications and the real networks being used. This occurs at LAYER 3 –
NETWORK layer of the reference model.layers in the OSI reference model are shown below.
5.1 OSI layers
LAYER 0 – MECHANICAL is only required in cases where there is a need to specify the
physical shape of connectors and modules that connect directly to each other. An example
would be defining the maximum size and connector arrangements of plug-in digital
communicators, so that manufacturers of control and indicating equipment could have a
standard space and connector layout into which communicators from a number of other
manufacturers could fit.
LAYERS 1 to 3 reflect the logical division of the functions in any network. LAYER 1 –
PHYSICAL defines the physical and electrical interface characteristics of the interface to the
actual transmission medium. It provides a totally transparent transmission path. LAYER 2 –
DATA LINK is responsible for any low level formatting of the data into blocks and for the
provision of error detection and/or correction. LAYER 3 – NETWORK provides addressing and
routing in networks with multiple terminals, as well as basic call set-up and clear down
procedures.
LAYER 4 – TRANSPORT – In some applications, these lower levels do not provide all the
transmission features required by the application. Within the context of alarm transmission, this
