Overview
General
The DC58/58M digital communicator consists of a
single PCB fitted in a small polycarbonate case. It
is used to transfer fast format status information
from an alarm system to a dedicated Alarm
Receiving Centre (ARC) via the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN). The DC58M offers the
same features as the DC58 but it also functions as
a V21 modem. The DC58M is required when using
the up/downloading feature on compatible
Menvier control panels.
Operating Modes
The DC58 can be used as a stand-alone
communicator, in this mode the communicator is
hard-wired to the control panel using the
appropriate terminal block connections.
Alternatively the unit can be plugged on to a
suitable Menvier control panel, such as the TS510,
TS700, TS790, TS900, TS2500 or TS2200. When used
in this mode the communicator plugs on to the
control panel using the lead supplied. The DC58M
can only be used in the plug-on mode.
