3.5. Intruder Detection Alarms* (a world first)
Features
and
functions
3.5.1. Ambush Alarm
Once activated, if the opening
or closing beams are
continuously interrupted for a
predefined time, the Ambush
Alarm will sound. Intruders
often cover beam lenses, thus
breaking the beam, so your
gate stays open after you
have entered or left your
property – but with the
Ambush Alarm enabled you
can be instantly alerted to any
criminal activity.
3.5.2. Break-In Alarm
If the closing beam on the
outside of your property is
broken, the Break-In Alarm
will sound and continue until
30 seconds have passed since
the beam is re-made.
Intruders will not be able to
loiter outside your property as
the Break-In Alarm will
immediately alert you of their
presence – and the noise of
the onboard buzzer is often
an effective deterrent.
Optionally the alarm signal
can be routed to an armed
response company.
If either the Ambush Alarm or Break-In Alarm is utilised, the system
may be configured to operate one of the following outputs provided
on the controller:
Onboard buzzer – emits a continuous tone
Pillar / Courtesy light contact
Safety beam common
Status LED output
Auxiliary IO (which can be used to connect to a third party alarm
and security company, or a CENTURION G-SWITCH-22 device to
alert you of the alarm via SMS)
It is typical to select only one of the alarm features.
