ADA* Compliant Emergency Phone
The E-1600-912A ADA Compliant Emergency Phones are designed to fit in Viking
VE-9x12 Series outdoor enclosures. They provide quick and reliable handsfree
communication for any standard analog telephone line, analog phone system
station port or Cell to Pots Converter. All E-1600-912A phones meet ADA
requirements for emergency telephones, and can be programmed from any touch
tone phone. The phones can dial up to 5 programmable emergency numbers, as

The E-1600-912A phones can be programmed to automatically deliver a digital
announcement to identify the location of the emergency call. Alternatively, a DTMF
touch tone code may also be delivered. A "Call Connected" LED can be initiated
manually or automatically. All programming parameters, including phone numbers
and location numbers, are stored in non-volatile memory. All units are phone line
powered, requiring no batteries or external power and are compatible with
common Central Station Monitoring equipment.

gaskets, sealed connections, gel-filled butt connectors, as well as potted circuit
boards with internally sealed, field-adjustable trim pots and DIP switches for easy
onsite programming. For more information go to www.vikingelectronics.com/ewp.
