Iris Touch 200 Range Dialer Installation Manual 1
1. Introduction
1.1. About this manual…
This manual is designed to help you, the Installer, with the installation process
for the IRIS Touch alarm dialer. We recommend that you read through this
manual, in its entirety, before you visit the customer’s site and begin the
installation.
1.2. Overview
The IRIS range of alarm dialers allow users to migrate intruder alarm systems
away from traditional PSTN communications to IP based and/or wireless
networks, without the need to upgrade or replace the alarm system.
The majority of intruder alarm systems which are configured to make alarm calls
to a central monitoring station use the traditional PSTN analogue network as the
communications path. However, PSTN is becoming increasingly unsuitable as
users move to IP and Voice over IP (VoIP) for their fixed networks or rely purely
on mobile (GSM and GPRS) communications. In addition most PSTN service
providers are migrating to VoIP networks, so in the not too distant future PSTN
lines may be withdrawn.
The IRIS dialer range is unique in offering a quick and cost effective way to
interface any existing alarm system to alternative networks such as GSM,
Ethernet and GPRS. As a result of the flexibility and power of IRIS it has
become the IP transmission system of choice for Monitoring Centres across
Europe.
The IRIS 200 series is intended to be used with alarm panels that do not have
sufficient space inside their enclosures for an IRIS dialer. There are three
dialers in the range:
•
IRIS Touch 200 - GSM
•
IRIS Touch 220 - Ethernet
•
IRIS Touch 240 - Ethernet & GPRS
The IRIS Touch dialer should be located next to the alarm panel and powered
from the panel’s internal battery backed DC supply.
