8.2 Sensaphone 1108 BusinessSitter Edition
The Sensaphone 1108 BusinessSitter allows you to monitor and
check on the status of your facility from any cellular or ordinary
telephone. The Sensaphone 1108 BusinessSitter turns a device on
when an alarm occurs. You can also inquire about the status of the
device during a voice status report.
This Sensaphone edition contains a relay contact on the rear of
the unit (See Figure 3). The relay contact supports a normally
open relay.
When the Sensaphone detects an alarm condition, it closes this
relay, which then activates the device attached to the relay. The
relay remains closed throughout the alarm process, even while the
Sensaphone is making its alarm-response telephone calls out to
you. Reset of the alarm relay may occur either locally or remotely
via the telephone. This is discussed further in following sections.
The Sensaphone relay is a low voltage relay. Only voltages less
than 30 volts AC 2AMPS, or 30 volts DC 2AMPS may be
switched. For higher voltages, an additional high-voltage relay
would be required.
Always enlist the services of a licensed electrician
when working with high voltages.Improper wiring
can cause harm to you or your property.
NOTE: For safety reasons it is highly recommended that the unit
only be used to switch low voltage signals (30 volts or less). If
you intend to control higher voltages you must install the unit in
an NEC approved electrical panel or enclosure and have wiring
performed by a qualified electrician.
