The last thing you want is a fire station alerting system that you have to grow into, because unused capability is a waste of money. So when you choose a ComTech 10 Fire Station Alerting System you get the system you need today, with the capability to add features you’ll need tomorrow. Standard features include:
- Up to Three Audio Alert Source Inputs: Interface with up to three of the following audio alert sources concurrently: two way radio, radio based paging, telephone ring down and VoIP.
- Radio System Compatibility: Interface with any known trunked or conventional radio system. Can also integrate with P25 radio systems.
- Paging: Integrate with all known industry standard legacy system selective call formats to receive pager or tone based alerting. Company based alerting is also available.
- Wireline Capability: Receive alerts from the dispatch center or airport tower via hardwire connection.
- VoIP: The station can be alerted via VoIP.
- Day/Night Volume Levels: Lower night-time volume levels can reduce stress of station personnel. External speakers can also be incorporated into the system and may be muted at night.
- Integration with Station Lighting: Controls station lighting during an alert sequence.
- Integration with Station Appliances: Controls stoves, BBQs, traffic lights, exhaust fans or other station appliances during an alert sequence.
- Doorbells: Capable of three distinct doorbell tones. Tones can differentiate between east or west entrances (for example) and also be incorporated into an “In Case of Emergency” alarm button.
- Radio Monitoring: Either automatic, manual or switched. Automatic monitoring listens to radio traffic at certain pre-programmed times per day. An over-ride switch is available for increased monitor time. Manual monitoring allows station personnel to turn on or off the radio monitoring by simply flipping a switch.
- Data Panel: The display is a visual monitoring source and is utilized for system configuration and timer adjustments. Basic system troubleshooting and testing are also done through the data panel.
- Fail Safe Alerting: In case of major processor failure, the ComTech 10 will revert to whole station alerting as long as there is power to the system.
- Non-Proprietary Hardware: The ComTech 10 does not utilize or require proprietary hardware.
