Introduction of Contact-ID alarm
receiver
Traditionally, when alarm panels
are tested in the manufacturing or demonstrated in the sales offices, alarm
receiver with two public telephone lines are required in addition to a
computer. The Micro Seven model LS15E+ eliminates an alarm receiver and two
telephone lines by combining both of telephone line simulator and alarm
receiver functions for the application. Here, an alarm panel is connected to
the line 1 of LS15E+. The RS232C port of a PC is connected to the rear panel
connector of LS15E+ with special cable and connector that are provided with
LS15E+. Micro Seven’s LS15E+ control software provides a tool to display
incoming alarm messages. First, the alarm panel goes off-hook at line 1. The
loop current is flowing at the line 1.
Then, the alarm panel dials either primary telephone number “2” (single
digit) or secondary telephone-number that is assigned for line 2(programmable
one) depending on which telephone number scheme is selected. When the dialed
number is correct, the LS15E+ provides ring-back tone for two seconds. Then,
there is no sound for four seconds. And ring-back tone is generated for two
seconds. After 0.6 seconds, the LS15E+ transmits handshake tones of 1400 and
2300Hz for 100 ms each separated with 100 ms silence period. When the alarm
panel receives the handshake tones, the alarm panel transmits a string of alarm
message in DTMF tones with a check-sum at the end. When the alarm message with
correct check-sum is received by LS15E+, it transmits the kiss-off tone to the
alarm panel. LS15E+ also transmits the ASCII equivalent of the alarm message at
the RS232C interface to the PC. Then, the alarm panel either transmits a new
alarm message after a short delay or hangs up with the telephone line to
terminate the call. If the alarm panel did not receive the kiss-off tone, the
alarm panel may repeat transmitting the same alarm message four times. When
LS15E+ sees the on-hook-state, it turns off the loop current for a few hundred
milliseconds as a disconnect signal. Then, LS15E+ is now ready for a new call
from the alarm panel. LS15E+ is compatible with the Ademco ® Contact ID
Protocol for Alarm System Communications. Programmed parameters are restored
upon powering off and on unless noted.
The line 2 of LS15E+ contains CPE
(customer provided equipment) circuit to interface PBX inside line. If there is
ring signal input at line 2, an off-hook relay is turned on to represent
off-hook condition. After short time delay, LS15E+ transmits handshake tones of
1400 and 2300Hz in 100 ms each separated with 100 ms silence period. The rest
of alarm receiver sequence is the same as for line 1 as follows: when the alarm
panel receives the handshake tones, the alarm panel transmits a string of alarm
message in DTMF tones with a check-sum at the end. When the alarm message with
correct check-sum is received by LS15E+, it transmits the kiss-off tone to the
alarm panel. LS15E+ also transmits the ASCII equivalent of the alarm message at
the RS232C interface to the PC. Then,
the alarm panel either transmits a new alarm message after a short delay or
hangs up with the telephone line to terminate the call. If the alarm panel did
not receive the kiss-off tone, the alarm panel may repeat transmitting the same
alarm message four times. When the alarm panel hangs up the call, it produces
disconnect signal that interrupts loop current at line 2. Then, LS15E+ turns
off the off-hook relay. Then, LS15E+ is now ready for a new call from the alarm
panel. LS15E+ is compatible with the Ademco ® Contact ID Protocol for Alarm
System Communications. Programmed parameters are restored upon powering off and
on unless noted.
Standard alarm receiver software,
that is provided at no charge, “as is” with no support, no liability, and no
support from Micro Seven,, in Windows operating system that receives and
decodes caller-ID information and Contact ID alarm messages displays caller’s
telephone number, name, date, nature of alarm messages on PC screen. The
software also stores the same information as a text file. Any additional
software requirement is custom.
SPECIFICATIONS
Micro Seven
Inc. model LS15-E+/TRIPLE Q includes
an alarm-receiver/simulator for Contact-ID, 4+2 pulse format, and SIA-FORMAT
for wirelessly from iPhone® app.
Handshake tone priority:
Unless 4+2 pulse and SIA-FORMAT
are individually disabled by the control software, handshake tone for
SIA-FORMAT is generated first. . If there is no signal received for SIA-FORMAT,
handshake tone for 4+2 is generated. Then finally if there is no signal
received by LS15E+/4+2, handshake tone for Contact-ID is generated.
4+2 Pulse Format supports SIA
