Dialler input gets thumbs up down under

terriersc is proud to announce that the dialler input spot.one has passed all the tests required for Australian Telecoms approval.

Three areas of testing are necessary before products can be used in conjunction with a telephone line and these are CE testing, Safety testing and telecoms testing. The CE testing for Electro-Magnetic Compatibility of the whole family of spot products was established several years ago but safety and PSTN compatibility have been tested this year.

Safety testing was to EN60950 and the equivalent International standard IEC60950 that is recognised worldwide. This standard looks at product handling and their connection to other systems which may include high voltages or other equipment like power supplies and telephone lines. The physical composition of the product is also examined in detail to verify the fire safety of components.

The dialler input spot.one provides for the alarm panel’s dialler to fall back to a PSTN connection when an Upload/Download connection is required or if the IP connection fails. The communicator gives the panel full control over the PSTN connection so that it can seize the line and disconnect telephone apparatus when it is dialling out.

Once the safety testing had been completed, our Australian partner Contact Services took on the Telecoms testing to ensure compliance to the Australian Communications Agency’s requirements. The dialler input spot.one was then duly tested to AS/ACIF S002:2005 and is now ready to receive the A-tick Approval and bring low-cost, fully supervised high security alarm signalling to Australian alarm installers.
