COM9600 Digi-Modem is suitable for use in systems designed for use with ATS levels 1 or 2 (as
defined in prEN50131-1:2004) and environmental class 1 or 2. With the PSTN functioning
normally, the ATS will comply with the required performance levels subject to the ARC being
suitably equipped.
REMEMBER
The Telecom Ground terminal should ALWAYS be connected to earth in order to maximise the
effectiveness of the transient voltage protection of the unit. Failure to do so will leave the device
vulnerable to damage during electrical storms, etc.
DISCLAIMER
PCX panels includes the facility to send electronic signals to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC),
and also to send SMS text messages to mobile 'phones.
Alarm, etc. signals may be transmitted via a PSTN link, using a variety of formats, to suitable
receiving equipment located at the premises of an independently operated Alarm Receiving
Centre.
The SMS facility uses a PSTN connection to a special SMS Centre, where the information is
transferred to the GSM network for delivery to the client's designated mobile telephone(s).
The SMSC services are provided by GSM network operators or other reputable companies, whose
operation is outside of the control or influence of Pyronix Ltd.
Pyronix Control Panels have an embedded premium rate telephone number that is used to contact
a Pyronix host computer prior to commissioning, in order to download the SMSC details and
appropriate call routing authorisation. The control panel will continue to contact this CHC at regular
intervals, to verify the operation and update and confirm the routing information and authorisation
as appropriate. The charge for this service is raised by the use of the "premium rate" telephone
number (the bill-payer must be informed of this).
Whilst we will use our best endeavours to resolve any issues relating to these uses of equipment
manufactured by us, Pyronix are in no way responsible for the operation of the PSTN, the Alarm
Receiving Centre or the SMSC - or for the end-to-end security and delivery of information and
messages involved.
