SYSTEMV INTRODUCTION

The LINKS 1000 is only supported by the North
American AMPS Network and is not supported by
the European GSM Network.
1.2 Additional Devices
1.2.1 Keypads
A maximum of eight keypads can be connected to the
control panel and can be any combination of the following
listed.
• PC5506 6 zone LED keypad with function keys
• LCD5500 LCD keypad with function keys
• PC1575RK 6 zone LED keypad
• SL-75 6 zone Slimline LED keypad
1.2.2 ESCORT5580 Module
There are many benefits to
adding the ESCORT5580
module to a security system. The
ESCORT5580 module will turn
any touch tone phone in the world
into a fully functional keypad.
Imagine the security a customer would feel if they had the
ability to arm, disarm and check status of their alarm system
while at the office or on vacation.
All touch tone phones in the home also become system
keypads. For example, at bedtime, the phone beside the bed
can be used to arm the system. The addition of the
ESCORT5580 may reduce the cost of the overall installation,
eliminating the need for additional keypads and the labour of
running wires.
The ESCORT5580 will also act as a tutor for the system. By
using clear, easy to understand sentences, the voice module
helps guide the user through functions they may otherwise
find difficult to navigate. Programmable zone labels (up to
6 words each from our library of over 240 words) makes the
system even easier to use.
The module also has a built-in power line control interface
and can control up to 32 power line devices for lighting and
temperature control, giving you the power to add home
automation in a very cost effective manner. Devices can be
activated individually, as a group, by schedule or can be
activated when an event occurs on the system, such as an
alarm.
These are just a few of the applications available with the
addition of the ESCORT5580 module. For more information,
please refer to the ESCORT5580 Installation Manual.
1.2.3 PC5400 Printer Module
This module will give you the
added advantage for the
commercial customers who
like the idea of a permanent
record of openings and
closing but are put off by the
additional monthly monitoring charge. In addition, as reports
are generated in real-time, the customer will not have to wait
for a monthly report from the monitoring station.
The PC5400 Printer Module will allow the panel to print out
all events that occur on the system to any serial printer. The
printout will contain the time, date and the event that occurred
(see Section – 5.25 “On-site Printer”).
1.2.4 Downlook Video Transmission Module
The Downlook Still-Frame Video Transmission Module (DLM-
1/DLM-4) is the ideal solution for all business and residential
environments which require visual surveillance but where
the presence of on-site security personnel is impossible,
undesirable or unaffordable.
Downlook is the smart and inexpensive way to add visual
backup to your regular remote alarm signalling system,
meeting your demand for tighter security on a tight budget.
The added visual protection will reduce the incidence of
false alarms as well as surveillance costs, thus improving
the overall security protection.
For more information regarding the Downlook Video
Transmission Module, please consult the DLM-1/DLM-4
Installation Manuals.
1.2.5 LINKS 1000 Cellular Communicator
The LINKS 1000 Cellular Communicator provides an efficient,
cost-effective method for adding cellular back up to the
security system. The LINKS 1000 Cellular Communicator
can be used three different ways: as the sole communicator
for the panel, as a back up for either or both phone numbers
or as a redundant back up to the land line communicator
where the panel will call both the land line and via the LINKS.
The unit comes in its own cabinet with antenna and requires
a separate battery and transformer (see Section 5.24 “LINKS
1000 Cellular Communicator”).
1.2.6 Cabinets
Several different cabinets are available for the PC1580
modules. They are as follows:
