Simple Operation
The PC5900 is an audio verification module that can be manually controlled (upon transmission of an alarm signal) by a central station operator through the keys of a touchtone phone. The length of time that the PC5900 remains on-line in talk/listen-in mode is defaulted for 90 seconds. As necessary, the operator can extend the session by pressing the phone key designated for this task. To manage background noise, operators can choose between low- or high-gain operation and toggle microphones on or off.
Phone Key and Mode Key Options Keys
Keys 0-9, * and # of a touchtone phone are programmable for control during the talk/listen-in session by the central station operator. In addition, a mode key can be programmed to add 12 more keys (mode key + key). Some of the options that are available include:
• High-gain talk to all speakers: This key activates high-gain talk to the premises from all speakers.
• High-gain listen-in to all active microphones: This key activates high-gain listen-in from the premises from all currently activated microphones. • Microphone control (input): This key requires a one-digit microphone input number (0-5) entry after pressing the key. Once the microphone number has been entered, the input selected is then toggled to either enable or disable the input from the listen-in session. Selecting 0 will turn all of the inputs off; likewise selecting 5 will turn all of the inputs on.
• Zone select: This key requires a two-digit zone number (01-64) entry after pressing the key. Once the zone number has been entered the microphone input assigned to that zone is activated for listen-in.
• Mode key: This key allows the operator to toggle to an extended set of commands.
Value Added
Receiving audio verification simultaneously with the alarm signal allows central station dispatchers to prioritize and verify alarms before acting on them – an ideal solution to the false dispatch and unverified alarm problems.
