Universal Transceiver
A Universal transceiver can be used to integrate your facility’s existing equipment
such as backup generators, pull-cord devices, or smoke detectors with the software.
Universal transceivers come as either NO (normally open) or NC (normally closed)
devices. They automatically activate when the input from a monitored device has a
contact close or open respectively. When this happens, the Universal transceiver sends
event information to the Central Server.
The Universal transmitter can be placed in the enclosure of an existing device or
inconspicuously mounted near the device. Be sure that the transmitter is not encased in
metal that might block the wireless signal to the Repeater or Receiver. The Universal
transmitter is powered by a replaceable 3-volt battery.
Pendant Transceiver
A Pendant transceiver is a wireless, mobile transceiver that can be worn around the
neck or wrist, or attached to a belt. The protective boot protects the Pendant transceiver
against dropping and water ingress. However to prevent water damage, avoid
prolonged submersion and direct contact with a water stream.
The Pendant can be supervised; if no information is received by the system from the
Gateway for a specified number of times, a Check Transmitter alarm is generated in
the Event List at the computer. Since the Pendant is a mobile device, no installation is
required. Simply insert the battery and set up the Pendant transceiver for use. The
Pendant is powered by a replaceable 3-volt battery.
To Call for Assistance
To call for assistance, firmly press and hold the blue button on the transceiver (for
about a second). Release the button, the green light flashes a series of times to
indicate the transceiver is in an alarm state. If the transceiver flashes red, the signal
is blocked. Move to another area of the room until the signal transmits (flashes
green).
To Clear an Alarm
To clear an alarm or to reset the Pendant transceiver, rapidly but firmly press and
release the blue button on the transceiver six (6) times within three (3) seconds (be
sure to see the green light flash for each push). The green light flashes a series of
times to indicate the transceiver has changed states and is now idle and ready for its
next usage. If the transceiver flashes red, the signal is blocked. Move to another area
of the room until the signal transmits (flashes green).
