Introduction 

2.1  Purpose 

This manual describes how to install and operate the I.SITE III 
POCSAG paging transmitter. 
 

2.2  General Description 

POCSAG transmitter with LAN connection: 

The I.SITE III is a POCSAG transmitter for digital alarm systems. The transmitter is encased in a 
rugged  IP65-compliant  housing,  making  it  suitable  for  outdoor  use.  It  is  controlled  via  Ethernet 
LAN, enabling the transmitter to be located remotely. POCSAG messages are created internally 
and sent via the scalable transmission unit at 1...25W. 
 

2.3 

Functional Description  

2.3.1 

Design 

The I.SITE III consists of the following four functional blocks: 

 

Power  supply  -  AC/DC  converter  with  battery  charging  port  and  deep  discharge 
protection 

 

Transmission unit  

 

Controller board 

 

Backup battery (optional) 

 

 
Device  control  is  provided  via  Ethernet  LAN  (RJ45).  POCSAG  messages  are  created  internally 
and sent via the transmission unit (max. 25 W). Three local  digital  potential-free inputs and one 
service  contact  are  available  optionally.  These  can  directly  trigger  POCSAG  messages  and/or 
additional status messages to the alarm server. Multiple I.SITE III devices can operate in parallel 
via  LAN  as  long  as  the  radio  coverage  areas  do  not  overlap.  POCSAG  messages  are  sent 
asynchronously. For simulcast communication, use the I.SITE II together with I.SEARCH.
