2.1 WiLAS Remote Control Functions
The WiLAS System allows authorised personnel to activate three different warning alerts via the handheld
remote control or fixed panels illustrated in figure 2. When activated, each alert comprises a distinctive siren
tone followed by a verbal announcement detailed in Table 1. Optional colour-coded visual warning beacon
light systems are also activated simultaneously.
Note that Wireless Remote Controls, whether they be handheld or affixed to a Control Station door or a wall,
are battery powered and require periodic checks to ensure batteries are charged. Control Station or Wall
Mount Controls do not draw power from mains power.
