The
Tellabs

One-Way Alerting System
(figure

is
amultistation ringdown
telephone
cir-
cuit
used
in
emergency-alerting applications. With
the
293
System, large numbers
of
people can be
simuItaneously alerted via their telephones when
emergencies such as fires, industrial accidents,
or
threatening
weather
conditions
occur. Thus,
the
293
System can serve small communities, hotels,
motels,
apartment
buildings, condominiums, high-
rise buildings, hospitals,
department
stores, shop-
ping malls, schools,
campus
facilities, factories,
chemical and nuclear facilities, and numerous
other
applications where personnel require immediate
notification
of
emergency
and/or
evacuation pro-
cedures when disaster
threatens
or
strikes.

The

System
is
modular
in
design and
configured
in
100-station increments. Each fully

1DO-station
increment
is
subdivided
into 10-station increments, 10 stations being
the
number
accommodated
by each line-circuit module
in
a
293
Mounting Assembly. Aminimum-size 293
System consists
of
one
293 Mounting Assembly
equipped with 2common-control modules and 1

10
line circuit modules, aringing generator, and
apower supply. Optional
