ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS

I.General

The Automatic dialer shall be a self-contained microprocessor controlled system capable of monitoring and controlling up to 16 alarm channels. The system shall be integrated in construction and shall be installed and configured for operation by the user via keyword command programming on a data terminal or PC. Charac- teristics of Input and Output channels include Universal Input, Digital Output, Digital Relay Output, and Analog Output.

The system shall have an internally resident compiler to interpret the C program- ming language to allow users sophisticated control capabilities. C programming shall not be necessary for standard operation of the system.

Upon detection of any alarm or status change, the system shall commence dialing telephone numbers from a list associated with the particular alarm condition(s) and deliver a voice message identifying and describing the alarm condition(s). The system shall be capable of dialing out in voice mode, data mode, or to a beeper. When dialing out to a telephone number programmed as voice, the alarm message shall be delivered in voice-synthesized English using the internally resident vocabu- lary. When dialing in data mode, the system shall expect a data connection and shall send information to print to a PC or terminal monitor. When dialing to a beeper, the system shall send digits that identify the input in alarm. The system will continue to call telephone numbers in succession until a positive acknowledgment of the alarm message is received. Acknowledgment is accomplished from a touch- tone telephone, by PC, or by terminal. In addition, the system shall be able to receive incoming telephone calls from a standard telephone or modem. Upon answering, the system shall attempt a data connection. If a connection is made, the system shall allow remote access to programming and operation. If a data connec- tion is not made, the system shall recite a voice-synthesized status report with information that is pre-selected by the user.

The system shall be FCC and DOC registered for direct connection to the tele- phone network. The system shall have a one year warranty from the manufacturer. The system shall be a Sensaphone® ISACC by Phonetics, Inc.
