Which device is used to report the status of polled devices back to the Vindicator?

• A. The Alarm Panel
• B. The Reporting Device
• C. The 360 Cordon Device
• D. The Guard Device

Answer: (B)

When the system polls devices, the status responses need a path back to the central controller. The Reporting Device serves exactly that role: it collects the status from polled devices and relays it to the Vindicator so the control unit knows which devices are online or reporting faults. The Alarm Panel is the main control hub, but the return communications from polled devices go through the Reporting Device, not directly through the panel. The other devices listed aren’t responsible for carrying those poll replies.
