Locate Transmitters
This selection allows the operator
to display the last reported location
of the transmitter assigned to the
indicated individual or asset. When
the individual or asset is selected
from the list the time of the last
supervision report is shown (or
None is displayed if no supervision
report has been received from that
transmitter). On the map the last
report location will be shown.
Maintenance Alarm Database
Maintenance Transmitters, when activated in the "Test" or "Alarm" mode, generate a series of multiple data
packets like Subscriber Transmitters, however, a special code in each packet identifies the Transmitter as a
"Maintenance Transmitter".
The Receiver responds to a Maintenance "Alarm" or "Test" transmission in the same fashion as it responds to a
Subscriber "Alarm" or "Test" unless the Receiver has been put in the "Setup" mode. The Transponder then
reports the Maintenance Transmitter identification number and all signal levels to the Central Console, which
then creates the location estimate and processes the data as it would for a normal "Alarm".
NOTE: All Maintenance Transmitters are assumed to be valid so there is no need for the Console to check for
the identification number in the Subscriber Database.
The Central Console will not generate
an audible alert for the Operator, nor will
it create an "Alarm" display on the main
Console screen. Because they can be
set to graphically display received signal
levels, Maintenance "Alarms" are very
useful in verifying that the System
coverage exists at any location in the
protected area and that Receiver
redundancy is adequate.
