ACTIVITY

The PERS-2400 Console is a supervised wireless emergency reporting product designed for medical
alert applications. The table-top or wall-moun t Console pro vides “pus hbutt on” emergency assistance to
anyone who desires additional security and peace of mind.
The Console has three emergency functions: emergency, fire, and activity. The emergency zone can be
triggered by t he large EMERGENCY b utton on the face of the Console or with v arious models of wireless
transmitters. The fire zone can be triggered by wireless smoke alarms. The optional act ivity timer can be
set for 8, 12 or 24 hour operation. If the time expires before an activity transmitter is activated, or the
HOME button is pressed on the Console, the inactivity will trigger the emergency zone. For the visually
impaired, each button on the Console is molded with braille characters to identify the button’s function.

The Console is programmed using Linear’s RA-2400 remote access software. For details on
using the RA-2400 software, refer to the software’s built-in help file.

The Console can receive signals from Linear’s wireles s battery-powered transm itters sending DX or DXS
format signals. Up to 16 individual transmitters can be used with the Console. Activating a transmitter
causes the Console’s built-in digital communicator to send the appropriate alarm report to the central
monitoring station via the standard telephone network. In addition to the central station report, audible
and visual indications occur and the alarm relay energizes during an em ergency activ ation.
If the optional Model VB-4 voice board is installed, the Console will “talk” to the user. The digitally
synthesized, actual human voice, will sound “emergency”, “fire”, “timer done soon”, and other system
operation, setup, and supervisory prompts from a 38 word vocabulary. In addition, the voice board
supports 2-way automatic, 2- wa y manual, and 1-wa y listen-only audio emergency communications with
central station monitoring personnel using t he Console’s built-in high-sensivity microphone and speaker.
Supervised transmitters regularly send st atus reports to the Console and low battery reports when their
batteries are low . When the Console r eceives a low battery report, the TROUBLE indicator flas hes. If the
Console fails to receive a status report from a transmitter for a period of 24 hours, the TROUBLE indicator
will light. All supervisory conditions can sound a loc al annunciation and be reported to the central station.
The Console’s digital communicator can route calls to three telephone numbers: primary, secondary, and
supervisory. General reporting codes and individual sensor reporting codes are programmable for the
4x2 format. Alternately, Ademco Contact ID may be selected for the communicator reporting format.
Powered by a low voltage plug-in transformer, the Console has provisions for a recharagable backup
battery for operation during AC power outages. A backup battery disconnect switch allows for
out-of-service storage of the Console without discharge of the battery. The battery is recharged and
supervised by the Console. If the backup battery becomes low the POWER light will flash and the
condition can be reported to the central station.

A TRANSMITTER

A variety of Linear’s transmitters can be used with the Console. Supervised and non-supervised
transmitters in DX or DXS format can be used. The Consoles three zones function as follows:

EMERGENCY

Portable, supervised and non-supervised, pendant, belt-clip, or wristband type transmitters (Models
DXT -41, DXT-42, DXT-61A, DXS-21, DXS-23, DXS-62, DXS-63) and stationary, supervised Model
DXS-31 transmitters are used for medical alert applications. When this type of transmitter is triggered,
the Console sounds a two-tone siren and an emergency report will be sent to the central station. The
emergency zone can also be triggered by pressing the EMER GENCY b utton.

FIRE

Supervised Model DXS-72 wireless photoelectric smoke alarms can trigger the fire zone. When a smoke
alarm is activated, the Console sounds a r epeated series of three beeps and a fire report will be sent to
the central station.

ACTIVITY

Supervised, switch or motion triggered transmit ters (Models DXS-31/DXS-32 and DXS-54) can be used
for ensuring human activity. The motion detector will monitor human presence in a room. The contact
activated transmitter can be wired to a pushbutton or s witch f or manual activity monito ring. As long as a
signal is received at least once every 8, 12, or 24 hours (progr ammable) an alarm
15 minutes bef ore the programmed time expires, the HOME indicator will start blinking and a low pitched
beep will sound every ten seconds. The activi t y time r can be reset with a s ignal from one of these transmitters
or by pr essing the HOME b utton on the Console . F ailure to r eceive a signal within the progra mmed time period
will cause the Console to sound the two-tone emergency siren and report an inactivity alarm to the central
station. The activity timer can be turned on or off at the Console or through programming.

IMPORTANT !!!

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in portable
wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.

For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations

•

as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by

•

radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.

•

Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference

•

or fault.
A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale

•

distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
