1. Product Description
The PERS-4200 Console is a UL Listed supervised wireless emergency
reporting product designed for personal emergency reporting
applications. The table-top Console provides “pushbutton” emergency
assistance to anyone who desires additional security and peace of mind.
The Console receives signals from up to 16 Linear wireless transmitters
(called “sensors”). Activating a transmitter causes the Console’s digital
communicator to send the appropriate alarm report to the central
monitoring station via a standard land-line telephone connection or
through the optional cellular wireless communications module. In addition
to the Central Station report, voice prompts sound from the Console and
multi-color indicator rings around the Console’s buttons display status.
The emergency alarm can be triggered by the
HELP
button on the
Console or with a wireless transmitter. The fi re alarm can be triggered
by wireless smoke detectors, and gas alerts can be triggered by wireless
carbon monoxide detectors. Wireless transmitters can also be confi gured
as activity timer reset devices to verify activity at the User’s location.
