1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Telephone connection

EasyAlarm® is designed to connect to an analogue telephone line. This network must remain in service for at least one
hour after a mains power loss according to EN81-28.
These are:

analogue PSTN (with EA-8-DPXN in combined use with downstream existing subscriber as modem/fax).

analogue port of an ISDN terminal:
ISDN-NT has to be reprogrammed for emergency operation at the ab-port.
One line must be available at any time.

Mobile interface / Gateway with approval, i.e. from Leitronic

10.7.1.

analogue port of a private exchange using UPS (Interruptible power supply 1h buffering).

DECT-Interface

10.7.2.
Multiple EasyAlarm® sharing one line:

Ensure that the first alarm number is always available, because if multiple alarms triggered at the same time it is
possible that only first number can be reached.
 A maximum of three units can share one line.
In case of star cable routing (max. 15 Ω difference per connection = Calc 2 x conductor resistance!) up to 4 diallers can
be connected. Example: AWG 24 (U72) = 2 x 90 Ω / km => difference in length max. 15 Ω / (2 x 90 Ω / km) = 0.083km.
 In case of a two-step-dialling-in

6.9.2 the number of diallers is doubled.
Not suitable:
 VoIP ( V oice o ver I nternet P rotocol), cable-TV-modem or NGN ( N ext G eneration N etwork), as in case of a power loss even
with local backup the network (Amplifiers, Fiber network etc.) cannot guarantee EN81-28.
 If a "fail-safe" connection is guaranteed, ensure that DTMF-transmission will be real-time

i.e. configure “DTMF
inband” on the ATA (AnalogTelephoneAdapter).
The voltage of the telephone network is defined in EN 41003. It is higher than 40 V and therefore please beware for
electrical hazard and disconnect the phone line whenever working on connections.
The telephone line can be protected with a lightning protection interface

10.11.
1.2 Power supply
A transformer according to the safety regulation EN60950 provides power supply. 9V battery is used as a back up in case of
power failure. It is located on the rear side oft the device.
In case of a mains power loss in combination with a low battery, EasyAlarm® can still make a call to one destination
powered over the telephone line.
If a relay is used to start emergency call, beware that this relay is powered for at least 1 hour after a mains loss.
1.3 Safety notes
 All the electrical connections have to be potential free; therefore no ground connection between elevator control-unit
nor the power supply is permitted. Observe the regulation according to EN60950.
 If you hear or o after power on, you have to replace the battery

7.4.
 Check alarm functions and start a test-call, before the system is put in service

6.8.
 Please note, an alarm by telephone is only successful if the subscriber takes care of the following points:

Alarm must not be answered by an answering machine or equal equipment.

Mobile phones can be out of coverage (e.g. underground car park, shielded rooms, remote areas and so on).
 Do not open the device (exception: opening of battery compartment).
 Do not bring the device into contact with water.
 Use only small signal switches or relay contacts for the emergency buttons. Do not use 230 V contact material, since it
may not give a reliable contact.
