HARD ALARM OUTPUT
The RegCom-Pro allows you to program exceptions to trigger external alarming devices such as DVRs, Time-lapse
VCR's, quads, enunciators, LED's etc. Using the ALARM OUTPUT you can have your DVR record only exceptions, or
have an alarming quad go to full screen on an exception, or even trigger a buzzer to alert you that an exception has
occurred.
DVR or PRINTER OUTPUT
There may be situations where you want to send all the data to store on a DVR or do not want cashiers or other
employees to know what triggers an exception. In this case, the RegCom-Pro provides a separate serial output that will
send data to a remotely located DVR or serial printer. If you turn the output on and you have a remote serial printer
hooked up to the RegCom-Pro, then, whenever an exception is reported, it is sent out to the serial printer. The printer will
give you a hard copy printout of the questionable transaction with the time and date. With this hard copy printout of the
exception report, you can then review the tape by going directly to that exception's time.
The serial output of the RegCom-Pro can be programmed to send out the entire transction. The output can be connected
to the other equipment such as DVRs, computers, phone line transmissions or digital storage devices for later retrieval.
The RegCom-Pro also has a "triggered text" feature. This feature allows programmed text or control characters to be sent
out when an exception occurs to trigger devices like DVR's to save the data file for future review. Other computer devices
can wait for this specified text string and do other functions at this time via the serial communication process.
