1-3Chapter 1: The LC1400 System
How the System Works
The LC1400 system uses a simple but effective
concept. Monitored residents wear a small,
unobtrusive system tag, and LC1400 units are
installed at points of egress.
When a tag enters a monitored area, the
system can automatically:
• Sound alarms
• Lock doors
• Deactivate elevators
• Flash lights
• Trigger visual displays (e.g., Staff Alert
Panels or Graphic Display Panels)
Because LC1400 units only react to tags, the
system does not restrict the movement of
other residents, staff, or visitors.
The LC1400 unit’s range of coverage is
determined by the size of the Tx activation
field. An LC1400 unit’s Tx activation field
can be expanded or reduced to accommodate
the environmental conditions of virtually any
doorway, hallway, or elevator you wish to
monitor.
An LCT-TX is added to provide an additional
exciter field in a different orientation than the
LC1400T to help activate a tag regardless of
the orientation as it enters the TX field. Used
in hallways, double doors, double or triple
elevators.
