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.
The options for forwarding via telephone lines include both mobile and fixed telephones,
pagers, service groups or combinations of these.
There are two different Octalarm-IP series: the A line (the most comprehensive versions) and
the B line. This manual describes the installation, setting up and use of the A line. Certain
functions are not available for the B line.
A report to a telephone uses either a standard voice message or a message that the user
records themselves. The text for reports to pagers or by SMS can be determined by the user
as can the desired action, dialers and reset procedures.
Because connecting and setting up are of a technical nature and require technical
knowledge of the alarms connected, it is recommended that the Octalarm-IP should be
installed and set up by an electrical technician.
We recommend that you read this manual carefully in order to be able to make the best
use of the Octalarm's application options.
