System Overview
WiLAS Installation & User Guide
2
The ‘Wireless Alert Siren’ (WiLAS) System from EAS was developed to deliver louder, more easily
distinguished “Lockdown” and “Evacuation” alerts, or other site-specific warnings, more rapidly and at a
significantly lower installed cost, compared to traditional ‘hard-wired’ systems with central control panels.
The WiLAS System is a completely wirelessly networked, wirelessly activated alert siren system, with
optional supplementary visual warning devices. The total absence of cabling to distributed power and control
signals around an installed network, means warning devices can be placed where they’re needed to deliver
their warnings to best effect; and because the remote controls are also compact and wireless, they can be
either carried in a pocket, or located at fixed locations anywhere around the site where WiLAS is installed.
This not only dramatically improves design flexibility and dramatically lowers response times , it also
removes inherent points of failure (such as centralised power and control cables which, if damaged, could
render the entire system useless) as well as lowers the costs of installation. Simply place the siren (or
optional flashing beacons) where they’re needed around the workplace or site to be covered, place fixed
(optional) activation panels where they’re needed, and distribute wireless handheld remote controls to
authorised operators as required, to ensure optimal site coverage.
Then, in an emergency - whether it be a lockdown condition due to an intruder on site, or an evacuation due
to a fire or chemical spill – simply select the required alert tone on any of the handheld or fixed wireless
controls, and within seconds, every siren and/or beacon is activated. Whether it’s one or one hundred
sirens, or one building or a mine site covering several square kilometres, WiLAS improves site safety by
delivering more easily understood warnings.
Configuring a WiLAS System for your site is relatively easy. Sirens are placed to deliver best audio
coverage, with each pair of sirens being connected to a Control Station that supplies power and provides the
network connection. As long as any one Control Station is within 300-400 metres (maximum) of at least one
Control Station (but preferably two or more), then any one Control Station that is activated by a wireless
control will repeat the activation/deactivation signal to any other Control Station in range.
In this way, even over areas of several square kilometres, signals can be rapidly repeated, setting off every
siren or flashing beacon in the network - and all without the need for interconnecting cable around the site
between control panels and sirens.

Figure 1 illustrates how a WiLAS system can be deployed in a typical multi-building campus site, and how
activation signals are propagated through the network via multiple pathways. This ability to automatically
create multiple pathways makes WiLAS highly resilient, providing redundant signal pathways in the event of
radio interference, or hardware failures resulting from faults, vandalism or malicious attacks.
Figure 1: Deployment of WiLAS System on a typical multi-building site
To enhance network robustness, WiLAS uses a security coded radio signal. Every wireless remote control,
Control Station and optional warning Beacon Station is keyed to a site-specific network to ensure network
integrity. Every Control Station is additionally supplied with dual siren horns, not only to deliver greater audio
output, but to provide redundancy. Back-up batteries on the Control Stations, and optional solar charging
systems ensure maximum network up time by ensuring the system will work even in a total power blackout.

1.1 System Components
1.1.1 Basic
1.1.2 Options
Wireless Remote Control
Wireless handheld “Remote” which allow the user to:
•Control the activation of alert warnings
•Test and diagnose system performance
•Configure other networked devices
Control Stations
Wirelessly activated which:
• Receive and relay radio messages from Remotes, Fixed Control Panels or
other Control Stations to other devices in the same network
• Drive the remotely mounted Sirens
• Charge the internal battery (via mains or optional solar powered charger)
Sirens
Connected to Control Stations in pairs to provide high output audio alerts via
distinct alert tones and spoken 'voice-overs'. Supplied with cable and J-Bar
mounts to install on external walls.
Indoor Wireless Beacon Station
Provide supplementary visual warnings on sites with high ambient noice, or
hearing-impared personnel. Deliver warnings via three colour-coded strobe
(flashing) lights. Wall or ceiling mounted.

5
Outdoor Wireless Beacon Station
Provide supplementary visual warnings, as per Indoor Beacons. Deliver warnings
via three colour-coded strobe (flashing) lights. Wall or pole mounted.
Solar Power Kit
May be connected to a Control Station (one solar kit per station) to allow
installation of Control Stations in locations that do not have mains power
Control Station Mounted Control Panel
Integrated into a Control Station door to provide additional alert activation
locations.
Stand-Alone Wireless Control Panel
A "stand alone" fixed control panel which may be remotely located at strategic
locations throughout a site to provide additional alert activation locations. These
controls only provide an activation signal to a network of installed WiLAS devices
and can not be used to extend the wireless system signal coverage.
Advisory Wall Plaque
A wipeable wall poster which allows details of site safety warden, safe zones and
evacuation assembly points to be recorded. Ideal for classrooms, meeting rooms,
or locations where personnel might not be familiar with site specific procedures.
