Checking your security connection...
every 55 seconds

That's great ... but can you show me?

When you are told about a new product and how wonderful it is, your first reaction is to say “Show me!” So when talking about our dual-signalling alarm communicator, it is very reassuring to be able to demonstrate it actually working.

The 8 input IP/GPRS alarm communicator Demo unit will connect through to our Demo Receiver which is available over the Internet which means that it is possible to see both ends of the connection at the same time.

The Demo unit comes with 7 LEDs operated by the communicator’s outputs as well as the 12 engineer diagnostic LEDs actually on the communicator itself. We also supply a leaflet which will guide you through process by which the communicator connects to the receiver so you can follow it on the LEDs.

If it can be arranged, it is best to show the full capability of the device by using your client’s Broadband (or ADSL) connection but the demonstration is still impressive if you just use the built-in GPRS – I always point out that the GPRS connection is comparatively slow because it takes an alarm message 1 or 2 seconds to get fully acknowledged which is a lot longer than via ADSL.

Using just the GPRS connection to demonstrate the unit makes life a lot simpler because all that you need is the Demo unit, a socket for the unit’s power pack and access to the Web. With these you can demonstrate the monitoring of the connection and simulate Comms Failures, sending an Alarm Message and sending a control signal to the communicator – all nice and simple but very, very effective.
