1Product Overview

1.1 Product Description

The Guard-ItTM alarm autodialer is designed to monitor conditions at remote

facilities and place alarm notification telephone calls to personnel, delivering

specific pre-recorded messages.

Users may also call the product at any time from any telephone, to check for

alarm conditions.

Four signal inputs are provided for monitoring. The signals which the user

connects to these four inputs may be any combination of contact closure, digital

logic level, or analog 4-20 ma current loop. In addition, the product monitors

the 12 volt DC power connected to it, and if an optional rechargeable battery

has been installed, it will place alarm calls to report power failures.

The product will work with any standard dial-up public telephone line, as well

as with the available CellularmTM option. Leased lines are not required.

Using a programming phone at the front panel. the user may pre-record

informative, high-fidelity voice messages up to 12 seconds in length, for each of

the four input channels, plus a station identification message which is played

during every phone call.

The user may program up to 8 phone numbers, which may be up to 60 digits in

length. The product may also be programmed to call numerical display pagers

in addition to regular phone numbers.

If desired, the user may program a number of detail parameters such as alarm

trip delays, ring answer delays, etc.

A special Call Progress function may be turned on, which allows the product to

detect busy signals and move automatically to the next programmed phone

number, delay the voice reporting until the called phone has answered, and

move to the next phone number if a programmable maximum number of rings

has been exceeded.

A phone line fault monitor function may also be turned on, which detects the

disconnection or failure of the phone line.

Informative, multi-color front panel LED’s advise local personnel at a glance of

any problems.
