ABOUT THE QUICK TALK
TM
WIRELESS VOICE ALARM REPORTER
QUICK TALK
TM
WIRELESS VOICE ALARM REPORTER FEATURES
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Quick Talk
TM
is a wireless radio transmitter that
reports changes in the status of switches by transmitting
user-recorded voice messages to two-way mobile,
portable or base station radios. Quick Talk transmits your
voice message when the switch change occurs, and at
intervals you select.
Because you provide and connect the switches, your
Quick Talk units can report on the status of intrusion,
tampering, equipment malfunction, liquid levels, machin-
ery, pressure, temperature, power, smoke or leakage.
The Quick Talk is easily programmed to transmit on either
an existing or a new radio frequency, with the most
popular sub-audible coded squelch formats, such as
Quiet Call® or Digital Quiet Call
TM
. This enables all your
personnel with JOBCOM®, PATRIOT®, or equivalent two-
way radios to hear the voice messages instantly, and to
be advised of the current condition of each monitored
location or device.
Quick Talk is housed in a weather-resistant enclosure, so
it can be installed in a wide variety of indoor and outdoor
locations. Because its six internal AA Alkaline batteries
will power the unit for about a year, Quick Talk does not
require AC line power.
QUICK TALK MODELS AND FREQUENCIES
There are two Quick Talk models, one for each of the most
popular professional radio communications bands. The
model number appears on a label on the front of the case,

Ritron manufactures mobile, portable and base station
two-way radios and repeaters for use with Quick Talk.
Ritron pioneered the use of Color Dots on radios to
identify frequencies.
Factory-programmed, default Quick Talk frequencies are:
Blue Dot =
154.570 MHz for VHF units;
Blue Star =
467.925 MHz for UHF units.
See page 4 for instructions on changing the Quick Talk
transmit frequency to match an existing radio system.
