Introduction
The AS-80 is a State-Of-The-Art dual
channel alarm dialer. It can be used with alarm
systems to notify up to two persons when a
burglar and/or fire alarm has been triggered,
with an ATM machine to notify up to two
persons when a machine is out of money and/or
when a machine is out of receipts, or it can even
be used in a food locker application to notify up
to two persons if the temperature should raise
above a certain point. Whatever your
application is, the AS-80 can provide immediate
notification of the detected problem.
The AS-80 can be programmed to call
pagers, cellular phones, home phones or even
answering services. The unit has several special
commands that allows it to interface easily with
most pager systems. You can program the AS-
80 so that it will display a special code on your
pager so that you can easily identify the
problem. For voice calls, you can record your
own voice message up to 28 seconds in length
for each channel for easy identification of the
problem. The AS-80 uses high tech digital
integrated circuits for the announcement
storage. There are no tapes to break or wear
out. The announcement will be retained in the
unit for up to ten years without power. Best of
all, there are no batteries used in the unit for
backup, so you never have to worry about
replacing batteries again.
The AS-80 features a well refined answer
detect algorithm. The answer detect causes the
announcement not to play until the called party
actually answers the phone. This way the called
party hears the announcement from the
beginning and doesn't have to listen to the
announcement played over and over like other
units.
Programming of the unit can either be done
locally, without the use of telephone lines, or
from a remote location via the telephone line.
Remote programming requires a special four
digit security access code so that only
authorized personnel can access the unit.
The AS-80 can be connected to a dedicated
telephone line or to save money you can share a
telephone line between the AS-80 and a voice
line. When installed properly, the AS-80 takes
priority over the line and will automatically
disconnect the line from the other instruments
when it needs access to the line. The AS-80
also has a unique method for handling incoming
calls on a shared line. The problem is, "How do
you allow incoming voice calls, but still allow
the AS-80 remote access?". The AS-80 has the
answer. The unit can be setup so that to access
the AS-80 you call the line, let it ring twice,
hang up, count to five, then call back. The AS-
80 will only answer if you follow this sequence.
The AS-80 allows the telephone line to be used
for both voice and AS-80 incoming calls
without hassles.
The AS-80 features a unique set of outputs
that can be used to control external devices.
Each channel has a dedicated OUTPUT. Each
OUTPUT supplies 12vdc @ 20mA when it is
"ON". The OUTPUTS are turned "ON"
whenever the corresponding channel is
activated. The OUTPUTS can be programmed
to stay on from 0.1 to 9.8 minutes before
resetting. They can also be setup to be latched
in the "ON" state until the unit is reset. The
OUTPUTS may also be triggered "ON" or
"OFF" by remote control. This gives the AS-80
the power to be used as a remote control device.
The AS-80 is fast, versatile, State-Of-The-
Art, reliable, and is virtually maintenance free.
The AS-80 is the perfect choice for your
application.
