Wireless Security and Alarm paging

The QUIKTEL Wireless system has been specially designed to protect people, machines and assets, providing immediate paging notification to security personnel and monitoring stations.

The QUIKTEL Wireless system is made of three application blocks:

  • The QUIKTEL Control unit that controls reception and transmission of alarm messages.
  • A wireless backbone made of one Receiver and if necessary, a number of Repeaters and Locator units to cover a selected on-site area.
  • A variety of PageAlert personal mobile small transmitters.

QUIKTEL Wireless can report to:

  • On-site and commercial Alphanumeric Pagers.
  • Two-way radios.
  • Any desk or cellular phone.

QUIKTEL system configuration offers the option of self-test for 100% reliability and integrity. You can configure a QUIKTEL System according to your particular needs.

Examples: Subway Stations, Amusement parks, Greenhouses, Farming, Industrial Alarms, Power Sub-stations, Schools


Problem: Subway stations

Our City subway system comprises of (35) Stations, each with a number of entrance kiosks where people buy tickets. We need to protect our staff in case of a hold-up, robbery or kidnapping. We need a system that automatically calls Central Control notifying of any life threatening or emergency situations silently and discreetly triggered by the person under threat.

Solution:

Install a wireless backbone structure along the tunnels and the train platform made of Repeaters and Locators. Give a belt-clip or wristband transmitter to your staff. When a wireless button is pressed, QUIKTEL uses the telephone line to call Central Station. When an attendant answers the phone, QUIKTEL delivers a voice message indicating the name of the station, the name of the person and the location zone where the person is. QUIKTEL can also be programmed to send messages to text pagers or two-way radios.


Problem: Amusement Park

We are a Public Amusement Park with thousands of visitors every day. People buy tickets at different locations throughout the Park. We are very concerned about the personal security of our staff that goes to each kiosk every three hours to collect cash. We need them to discreetly trigger a personal alarm in case of an emergency or if they need assistance from our security staff.

Solution:

Install a wireless backbone structure made of Repeaters and Locators placed at strategic locations in the Park. Install fixed wireless pushbutton transmitters or wireless bill traps at the cashiers. Provide staff with personal belt-clip or wristband transmitters. Program QUIKTEL to send voice alarm messages to two-way radios and cellular phones carried by the Park's security staff. QUIKTEL sends the name of the person and the location zone where the messages has been originated.


Problem: Greenhouse Farming

We are greenhouse farmers. We depend on maintaining an adequate temperature control throughout the greenhouse during the winter months. We have thermostats that open and close contacts to turn on and off the fans and heating. We also need to monitor doors and water tank levels. We need an economical system that can call our cellular phones to tell us when the system fails. We also want to have the option of paging using the commercial paging company.

Solution:

Wire "dry contacts" to PageAlert modules to monitor closing and opening of thermostat relays and furnace contacts. Program QUIKTEL to dial your cellular phone and deliver a specific voice message to ensure proper operation.


Problem: Schools

We need alarm messages to be automatically sent when a teacher or a student is under threat. The system should send alarm voice radio message to school security personnel carrying two-way radios.

Solution:

Install wireless pushbuttons in the classrooms. Provide teachers and staff with belt-clip and wristband transmitters. Install a wireless infrastructure using Repeaters and Locators. When a pushbutton is triggered, QUIKTEL will send a voice message to two-way radios or cellular phones giving the location zone and the name of the person.


Problem: Power Sub-Stations

We need to know when a power transformer burns to immediately replace it. Our power sub-stations have a number of monitor devices that watch for transformer failure. Normally, a dry-contact closes to produce an alarm. We need the alarm to be sent directly to our dispatch unit rather than the alarm monitor company. We don't have sophisticated equipment. Therefore, we need a system that can call and deliver the alarm detail in voice to the person who answers the phone.

Solution:

Install QUIKTEL Wireless with PageAlert units wired to "dry contacts" monitoring power transformers. When a monitor contact is closed, QUIKTEL Wireless can send a voice alarm message directly to the two-way radios of the utility repair crews. QUIKTEL can also call the Service Dispatch over the telephone and deliver a voice message when a person answers. As an alternative, QUIKTEL can send a text message to the repair crew with failure details.


Problem: Industrial Alarms

We manufacture Television sets. We need operators to page their supervisor when there is a problem in the production line. We also need to know when the automated machines stop. Forklift drivers need to know where to go and pick up finished goods. We need to notify operators when ovens are ready.

Solution:

Provide operators with wristband or belt-clip transmitters. Install Repeaters and Locators in the plant and assign zones according to production processes. Use QUIKTEL Wireless to page supervisors with name of employee and location zone where they need help.


Features

Automatic conversion of text messages to voice for delivery to:

  • VHF/UHF 2-way portable radios.
  • Desk telephones. VHF/UHF Mobile radios.
  • Cellular telephones.
  • Sends text messages to on-site POCSAG pagers and commercial alphanumeric pagers.
  • Program 96 wireless alarm transmitters, each with its own text message.
  • Program 32 locations with a text message, to notify location of mobile alarm transmitters.

Text messages received from external sources via its RS-232 port can be transmitted as voice or text messages. i.e.: Nurse call systems and computer alarm messages are converted to voice for transmission to 2-way radios and cellular phones.

QUIKTEL uses the telephone line to dial and connect with a telephone to deliver a voice message.

Voice messages to radios and text messages to on-site pagers, are sent using its External UHF/VHF transmitter, 5 Watts to 100 Watts, synthesized radio.

  • Programmable security code to play messages.
  • Programmable standard CTCSS frequencies for radio selection.
  • Use of DTMF tones to acknowledge or repeat a voice message.
  • Programmable prefix and suffix for transmission with alarm messages.
