General Information
GAI-Tronics’ Centra-Page systems provide dependable paging and party line communications for rugged
and hazardous industrial facilities. Centra-Page systems feature centrally located electronics that provide
environmental protection and unitized amplification for easy maintenance.
Standard Centra-Page cabinets can support up to 30 handset stations, and in most cases, up to 60 paging
speakers. Alarms and telephone interfacing can be added to Centra-Page systems with the addition of a
Model 10959-208 Audio Messenger Interface (AMI) and a Model 10961-101 AMI Centra-Page Interface.
The Model 10961-101 AMI Centra-Page Interface, in combination with the AMI, can replace the Model
H97019 Programmable Tone/Speech Generator and the Model 10448-202 Telephone Interface for
Centra-Page systems or the Model GTB93017 Programmable Telephone Interface in CP/P II systems.
The Model 10961-101 AMI Centra-Page Interface is designed to provide five alarm inputs to activate the
Model 10959-208 AMI’s tone/speech generator when both are mounted in a Model 10468-002 CentraPage Central Cabinet and are properly configured.
The AMI Centra-Page Interface can provide Centra-Page systems access to the public telephone network.
The telephone line coupler is designed for loop start operation with bridged ringing. This coupler is
registered by the FCC number ADGOT01B46055. The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is 0.1A, with
an RJ11C connection.
