General
1. INTRODUCTION
The Octalarm is an alarm system that signals and reports technical failures and calamities by
telephone, of both manned and unmanned installations and processes.
Alarms can be put through to fixed telephones, mobile telephones, radiotelephones, switchboards or
combination of these, using an analogue ISDN telephone connection (model -I) or a mobile 900 or
1800Mhz network (model -G). There are various optical and acoustic signal options for local alarm
systems.
The Octalarm-T2, -T4, -T8 and –T16 are equipped with respectively 2, 4, 8 or 16 alarm channels. A
telephone report takes place by means of a recognizable tone code or a self-recorded voice message.
The codes for reporting to a pager can be set freely, just like the desired dialling order and the reset
procedures.
The alarm status of the guarded object can be retrieved from each Octalarm using the telephone line.
Furthermore, the Octalarm disposes of:
•
user-definable delay times
•
user-definable start and stop conditions for local alert
•
display of alarm cause
•
built-in emergency power supply
•
mains supply guard
•
guard of battery performance
•
telephone line test
•
flashlight output
•
remote control output
•
night time mode
•
data log
•
Sensornet connection (only for versions T4, T8 and T16)
•
access protection
•
extensive test facilities
•
RS-232 connection
•
permanent memory for all settings and report texts.
Operation and configuration are menu-driven. They take place using the control panel, via a directly
connected PC, or by telephone line using the built-in modem.
After connecting, a number of fixed installation parameters have to be set on the Octalarm. As they are
of a technical nature and since technical knowledge of, e.g. the connected alarm devices is assumed,
we recommend leaving the entry of this data to the installer. Therefore, this manual is divided into:
•
A general part for the user and the installer.
•
Operation instructions for the user containing all items concerning the configuration and
operation by the user.
•
Installation instructions
for the installer containing all items concerning the connecting of the
Octalarm and the programming of the installation data.
•
A
settings summary
for both the user and the installer.
We advise you to read this manual carefully, so that you can take optimal advantage of all the
application possibilities of the Octalarm.

4.1 Alarm procedure
The telephone alarm procedure diagram shows what happens in case an alarm channel is activated
using the factory defaults. Navigate through the diagram in the direction of the arrows, starting at the
ALARM block.
The function of the shaded block is by standard switched off. It can be activated by the installer
using the installation program.
4.2 Dialling order
When the Octalarm fails to report successfully, it will start a new dialling attempt to the subsequent set
number. The Octalarm considers a report unsuccessful if:
•
the dialling attempt has failed, e.g. if there is no dialling tone or the busy signal is received during
dialling,
•
the person being called does not answer the call,
•
the reset procedure is not accomplished correctly.
Using the factory defaults, all numbers entered (A through J) are passed in alphabetical order,
whereby blank numbers are skipped automatically. When for example four numbers are entered, these
numbers will be dialled alternately until the reset procedure is properly accomplished. After 15
unsuccessful attempts, the Octalarm will reset itself.
It is possible to set a specific dialling order for each alarm channel. This alteration has to be carried out
in the installation program. See paragraph 18.7 Prog 42 “set dial sequence”.
Alterations of dialling order have to be carried out carefully, because it might happen that an alarm
will no longer be reported due to a wrong setting!
4.3 Alarm channels and report codes
The Octalarm disposes of respectively 2, 4, 8 or 16 externally activated alarm channels and two
internal channels: "mains failure" and "battery empty". An individual message is assigned to each
channel.
4.3.1 Report to telephone
In case of a telephone report, an individual self-recorded voice message (for version -S) or a
recognizable tone code will be reproduced for each channel.
The tone codes are pre-set and sound for the Octalarm –T2, -T4 and –T8 as follows:
•
alarm channels 1 to 8: respectively 1 to 8 beeps
•
mains failure: 9 beeps
•
battery failure: 10 beeps.
The tone-codes for the Octalarm –T16 sound as follows:
•
alarm channels 1 to 16: respectively 1 to 16 beeps
•
mains failure: 17 beeps
•
battery failure: 18 beeps.
•
The messages (for version -S) can be recorded using the installation program.

With the Octalarm-T16, each alphanumerical radio telephone message and each SMS message is
also preceded by an opening message of your choosing.
If required, all codes can be altered using the installation program 55.
4.3.3 Report to mobile telephone
The Octalarm can report to mobile telephones in two different ways:
•
by means of a pre-set tone code or by a self-recorded voice message (version -S), as with a
normal telephone,
•
by using the Short-Message-Service (SMS), whereby the device's display is used as a pager. The
report messages used for this purpose are equal to those of an alpha-numerical pager.
Take account of the receiving range of your mobile telephone.
Sometimes, depending on the degree of capacity-use of the mobile network, messages by SMS
are passed with some delay. Therefore, it is recommendable to have time critical messages
acknowledged by call back (see paragraph 4.4 “Reset procedure”) and to have a second call
number dialled in case there is no response in time.
4.3.4 Report to reporting services
The Octalarm uses the report codes for alpha-numerical pagers to report to the Adesys reporting
centre. For reports to other centres, please contact your supplier.
Operation instructions
Adesys bv, Wateringen, NL
10 Octalarm-T2 / T4 / T8 / T16
4.4 Reset procedure
The Octalarm has two ways of resetting a telephone report:
•
Reset during the report. In case of reports to a pager, a reporting service or a mobile telephone
with SMS, the reception of the acceptance tone is sufficient to reset the Octalarm. In case of
telephone reports, a 4-digit reset code has to be entered during the report, using a tone dialling
telephone.
•
Reset by call back. Using this setting, the Octalarm has to be called back to acknowledge the
reception of the report. The call back time limit is adjustable, as is the reset code (for optional
use).
All settings mentioned above are adjustable for each individual call number.
4.5 More than one alarm simultaneously
The transaction order of alarms occurring simultaneously depends on whether a deviant dialling order
has been set for the alarm channels concerned or not. (See configuration in the installation program
Prog 42 “set dial sequence”.
4.5.1 Reporting channels with a default dialler
No specific call numbers are selected for these reporting channels. The report attempts can be sent to
each of the numbers entered (factory default).
In case more than one alarm takes place at the same time, the alerts will be passed on in groups as
much as possible. With telephone reports, more than one alarm is heard at the same time and in case
of a report to a pager or a reporting service, the report codes are passed on immediately after each
other. In this way, the alarms are reported quickly and they can be reset simultaneously.
4.5.2 Reporting channels with a deviant dialler
A selection from the call numbers entered has been made for these reporting channels. The report
attempts are only allowed to be sent to a limited number of call numbers, according to a determined
order.
If these reporting channels are activated simultaneously, the Octalarm functions according to the
priority principles, whereby the alarm with the highest priority precedes the other alarms. An alarm
having a lower priority will only be reported after a telephone reset of the alarm with the highest
priority, or following 15 unsuccessful report attempts. The priority of the reporting channels is
determined as follows:
•
battery empty channel,
•
alarm channel 1,
•
alarm channel 2, etc.
•
mains failure channel.
If a channel with a higher priority is activated during a report, the running report will be interrupted and
the highest priority alarm will be reported. After completing this alert, the report of the channel with a
lower priority is resumed.
4.5.3 Combination of a default/custom dialler
Reporting channels with a different dialling order always have a higher priority to channels with a
default dialling order.

5. FUNCTIONING OF THE LOCAL ALERT
5.1 Alarm buzzers
In case of an alarm, the built-in buzzer will ring together with the buzzer(s) that may have been
connected externally. The conditions that enable and disable the buzzer can be set:
•
Enable immediately after detection of the alarm (factory default).
•
Enable after a set delay time.
•
Only enable if a telephone report has failed completely.
•
Disable automatically after a set delay time or at the moment the reset key is pressed.
•
Disable when the telephone report has passed off correctly (factory default).
•
Only disable at the moment the reset key is pressed.
The default start and stop conditions can be modified using the installation program. (See paragraph
18.5 Prog 31 “set alarm buzzer”
The volume of the internal buzzer can be adjusted from 0 up to 4 (factory default: 2). When connecting
the external buzzer (optional accessory, supplied by ADESYS), its volume can be adjusted to three
levels.
5.2 Flashlight
The Octalarm is equipped with a flashlight output (as option deliverable). As opposed to the alarm
buzzer, the flashlight cannot be turned off in the event of an alarm by using the reset key. The
flashlight can only be switched off by cancelling the alarm or by switching off the alarm selection key.
The flashlight reminds the user of the fact that the alarm has in fact been reset, but the cause is still
not resolved.

6. OPERATION
6.1 Alarm indicators
The status of an alarm channel is indicated as follows by the red LED’s:
•
LED off: no alarm.
•
LED on: alarm.
•
LED blinks: alarm coming up. The alarm has been detected at the input of the reporter, but is not
being relayed since the set alarm delay time for this channel has not yet elapsed. The indicator will
switch off when the alarm expires in the course of this period. In case the alarm still exists after the
determined time, the indicator will light up continuously and the message will be reported.
6.2 Alarm channel selection keys
Using these keys, the message transmission can be switched off for each alarm channel (at OctalarmT16: per two alarm channels). The green indicator in the key lights up in case the passing of the report
is enabled. To avoid the transmission of the message being interrupted accidentally (e.g. while
cleaning), the key has to be kept depressed when turning off.
When an alarm channel is switched off (green LED off), an incoming alarm on the relevant
channel will not be reported.
6.3 Device malfunction indicators
The Octalarm periodically checks the major connections and facilities. A defect will be signalled. The
following malfunctions will be reported using individual LED’s:
•
battery failure
•
mains failure
•
telephone line interrupted or a failure in the mobile network (model -G).
When the telephone line indicator lights up without reason, this function can be switched off. See

BDepending on the selected pager type, the Octalarm can ask some additional questions, such as:
•
pager number : this question will only appear when using a pager with a general paging
service extension number, followed by a unique pager number.
• pin code
: this question will appear for pagers using some sub-address. (These pagers do not
involve any subscription expenses because many pagers are placed on one single
subscription. Separation takes place by the sub-address in the report code.) In case you do
not have to use a PIN code for your pager, you can leave this question unanswered.
B
Select the desired reset procedure, see paragraph 7.5 “Set reset procedure”.
7.2.1 Characteristics of a tone-only pager
This pager transmits a tone code and is sometimes equipped with a small numeric display. The pager
is supplied with 4 or 8 individual call numbers, with the transmitted tone code being determined by the
last digit. Nevertheless, the last digit is not important to the Octalarm.
When setting the call number, only one of the numbers provided must be entered. The Octalarm
itself will alter the last digit in order to transmit the right tone code for the right alarm channel.
7.2.2 Characteristics of an (alpha) numerical pager
This pager disposes of a display on which a user-defined numerical code or an alpha-numerical text
can be shown. Before the report can take place, one has to select the call number. Next, the report
code (and in some cases an additional pager number or sub-address) must be entered using a
telephone or a modem.
Attention: some numerical pagers are connected to paging services that are not able to send
defined acceptance signals on behalf of automatic dialling devices. Reporting to these kind of
pagers is therefore not possible!
