Before using
The Communicator is the central communication center and provides critical alarm warnings.
THEREFORE IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU CARRY OUT THE FOLLOWING MAINTENANCE CHECKS
ACCORDING TO THE RECOMMENDED SCHEDULE:
1. Daily (minimum weekly) alarm tests. Refer to Setting the test schedule, page 20.
2. Monthly battery (minimum between flock) test.
o
Disconnect power to Communicator
o
Ensure Communicator transmits SMS and voice alarms.
o
Wait one hour, and confirm that Communicator continues to transmit alarms.
o
Restore power to Communicator.
3. Test the Alarm Backup Batteries monthly (refer to page 45).
WARNING!
Communicator does not support pre-paid SIM cards. Use a regular card only!
CAUTION
Use an exclusive phone line for the Communicator!
NOTE:
Sometimes using a phone line via private switchboard might interfere with communication.
Munters recommends using a different line to the Communicator.
CAUTION
As a backup to the Communicator, Munters recommends installing an Emergency Light and
Siren system. If the Communicator is unable to transmit alarms via SMS or the telephone (for
example there is a complete power failure), the Emergency Light and Siren system sounds
an alarm.
