1. Product Description

The PERS-4200 Console is a UL Listed supervised wireless emergency reporting product designed for personal emergency reporting applications. The table-top Console provides “pushbutton” emergency assistance to anyone who desires additional security and peace of mind.

PERS-4200 Console

The Console receives signals from up to 16 Linear wireless transmitters (called “sensors”). Activating a transmitter causes the Console’s digital communicator to send the appropriate alarm report to the central monitoring station via a standard land-line telephone connection or through the optional cellular wireless communications module. In addition to the Central Station report, voice prompts sound from the Console and multi-color indicator rings around the Console’s buttons display status.

The emergency alarm can be triggered by the HELP button on the Console or with a wireless transmitter. The fi re alarm can be triggered by wireless smoke detectors, and gas alerts can be triggered by wireless carbon monoxide detectors. Wireless transmitters can also be confi gured as activity timer reset devices to verify activity at the subscriber’s location.

Voice Prompts

A built-in digital voice synthesizer can speak voice prompts in English, or Spanish to guide the user during operation, and guide the installer during programming.

✓NOTE: Check the Linear Web site for Console firmware upgrades that may support additional languages.

Language specifi c Console button labels are supplied for alternate language use. For the visually impaired, a braille label is also supplied to identify the Console’s buttons.

Power Supply

Powered by a low voltage plug-in power supply, the Console includes a rechargeable backup battery for operation during AC power outages.

Programming

The Console must be confi gured before use. Linear’s RA4200 software confi gures the Console remotely through the standard telephone line, or locally through the Console’s USB port, or through the optional cellular module via the Linear Voice Gateway. In addition, limited programming can be done remotely through the standard telephone line with a touch-tone telephone.
