INTRODUCTION
The EDAC 400-02 is a cost-effective, auto reporting dialler designed for industrial, domestic and
small-business use. The EDAC 400-02 is an effective tool for alerting the user to events such as
faults or changes in equipment state. It is physically compact, consumes little power and can be
installed very quickly. Its ease of programming combined with simple installation make it highly
attractive and cost effective in monitoring applications.
The EDAC 400-02 is activated by a contact closure, or opening, which results in the start of a
user-defined dialling sequence, followed by the transmission of either an 8-second voice
message or a 20-character pager/SMS message (subject to network availability).
When an event triggers the auto-dialler, the EDAC 400-02 will make an alarm notification call.
The EDAC 400-02 will pick up the phone line and call a list of people via telephone, cell phone or
pager. The EDAC 400-02 speaks the pre-recorded message announcing the problem.
Upon receipt of an alarm call you may reset the EDAC 400-02 by simply pressing a numeric digit
on your telephone keypad or by entering a user-defined PIN number. This will stop the unit
making further alarm notification calls. Alternatively, the EDAC 400-02 may be interrogated by
calling into it and listening to the voice message. This provides the opportunity to
cancel/acknowledge the alarm inputs via the telephone keypad. This option would normally be
used when the EDAC 400-02 is operating in conjunction with a pager and/or SMS messaging.
Other options, such as Outputs, are user programmable either on site or remotely (via a
telephone).
Once the EDAC 400-02 is in a cancelled state, the EDAC 400-02 will suspend its dialling
sequence and remain cancelled until the event that triggered the alarm has been removed
(cleared). If the EDAC 400-02 does not receive acknowledgment of an alarm, it will remain in
dialling mode until the event that triggered the alarm is cleared, or the user-defined call count limit
is reached.
All telephone numbers, messages, and functions are user programmable via a keypad and a
single character display.
The EDAC 400-02 has numerous programmable features that enable it to be a flexible telemetry
monitoring tool suitable for use in any situation. If you require information about the EDAC 400-02
and how it can be used with your monitoring application, please contact your supplier. For online
