Micro Seven Inc.® model AM10 Alarm Monitor/Recorder

Micro Seven, Inc. model AM10 quietly sits across telephone lines, monitors and records DTMF-based digital alarm messages that are transmitted by alarm control panels. AM10 may be placed either at alarm panel side or at alarm receiver side. If AM10 is placed at alarm panel side, alarm messages that AM10 receives are only for the alarm panel. If AM10 is placed at alarm receiver side, it monitors and records all alarm messages from all alarm panels that are reporting alarm conditions to the alarm receiver. DTMF-based alarm messages, which includes Contact-ID, that AM10 receives may be transmitted to PC via RS232 interface in real time for displaying the decoded alarm messages in PC and emails may be transmitted automatically. And received messages are stored in non-volatile EEPROM in AM10 along with real-time clock data including date and time for later uploading to PC. AM10 monitors popular digital alarm messages, transmits ASCII equivalent at RS232 interface, and records in EEPROM.

AM10 is shown in above picture.

Reference: Digital Communication Standard-SIA DC-05-1999.09, Ademco Contact ID Protocol for Alarm System Communications

 

AM10 control software:

 

Uploading of entire EEPROM to PC and clearing entire recorded alarm messages are provided. Uploaded data includes Contact-ID alarm messages with date and time.

 

Re-transmission of alarm message to other alarm receiver in Contact-ID protocol:

 

Alarm message that is transmitted to PC by AM10 via RS232 may be downloaded into Micro Seven’s model AP15-1, PC Alarm, (Contact-ID alarm dialer) with telephone number of the other alarm receiver by custom software. Then AP15 dials the telephone number and delivers the original alarm message that AM10 receives from alarm panels.

 

Alarm receiving software for Contact-ID:

 

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. Automatic email transmission of received alarm signal is included in this software. Any additional software is considered as custom.

 

We provide no liability using all our products for alarm receiving and alarm receiving software to all people and companies including alarm panel users, alarm central station, telephone companies, and all distributors.
