    1- General The Octalarm-IP is an alarm system that detects malfunctions and calamities in both manned and unmanned installations and processes and forwards them via the telephone. There are various optical and acoustic options on site for reporting the malfunctions.
  • Page 7 • Ensure that the emergency power supply is monitored for any peripheral equipment that may be present. • When the Octalarm-IP has been set up to report via the internet, the Security DSL splitter or a separate overvoltage protection should be used to protect the internet modem if possible.
  • Page 8: 2- The Principle Of Telephone Alarms

    Installer User Alarm contacts for the installation that is to be monitored are connected to the Octalarm-IP. Alarm notification is given via a telephone line, VoIP or GSM connection. This alarm process can be controlled and monitored via the internet.

    Roles have been introduced to the control structure because not everyone can have access to all the Octalarm-IP functions due to administration and safety reasons. Each Role has its own set of authorisations. This means that each Role gives access to specific set up functions.
  • Page 11: About The Adesys Control Centre (Acc)

    The ACC provides detailed management information concerning responses to alarms, state of the installation and the accessibility of the equipment for the end user. The installer gets a better diagnosis of the installation and control of the settings. The Octalarm-IP can also be set up via the internet.

  • Page 13: Call List

    Telephone Book can be grouped in a Call List. When, for example, the first receiver gives no response within a set time the Octalarm-IP will select the following receiver. Specific receivers can also be prioritised. You can find more information about compiling a Call List on page 23.
  • Page 14: Action List

    An Action List includes which Call Lists have to be used, whether the Octalarm-IP should give a local report and also which alternative Call Lists should be used during the night and at weekends for example. You can find more information about compiling Action Lists on page 24.
  • Page 15: Inputs

    Switching the output with voice response Outputs on the Octalarm-IP can be set up for remote switching. This makes it possible to give the Octalarm-IP switch commands remotely with a (GSM-) telephone. Because of this it is possible to carry out a reset on the monitored technical installation for example.

    Housing Opening The Octalarm’s inputs and outputs are located behind the operating panel. Simply slide up the operating panel to make connections: • Slide the operating panel up to the click stop (1). Do not use too much force when doing this. If the alarm dialer doesn’t slide open easily the operating panel may be jammed and it will then be necessary to find the cause of the jam first and sort it out.

    They should therefore never be used in combination and old blocks should not be connected to the Octalarm-IP. All terminal blocks are coded from 1 to 12. The codes correspond to the alarm inputs that the terminal block will activate.
  • Page 50: Connecting Outputs/Local Alarm

    Outputs 1 and 2 Outputs 3 and 4 Output functions The outputs on the Octalarm-IP have a variable function. The options are identical for each output: • external buzzer – follows the internal buzzer • external flashing light – in contrast with the alarm buzzer the flashing light cannot be cut short with the reset key during an alarm situation.
  • Page 51: Manufacturer's Settings For Outputs

    If these functions are not utilised these outputs can also be used for remote switching for example. Relay output NO3 is set for controlling the Adesys Security DSL splitter as standard and NO4 is for remote switching with a telephone.
