IP REPORTING
The AlphaVision ML has an on-board IP dialer for reporting alarm and trouble messages to a monitoring
station, fast and without additional dial costs.
Nowadays many internet providers offer all-IP solutions, in which internet, digital television, Voice-over-IP
(VoIP) telephone and PIN-over-IP are combined. When migrating to all-IP services usually the existing
analogue (PSTN) or ISDN line are often cancelled. Alarm reporting to a monitoring station using a PSTN
dialer over a VoIP connection causes troubles in many cases and is not advised. By using the on-board IP
dialer, alarm and trouble messages are sent to the monitoring station over the existing broadband internet
connection in a safe, secure and fast way. Consult your installation company for more information about IP
reporting.
The on-board IP dialer is not suitable for reporting to private (mobile) telephones.
PSTN PLUG-ON OPTION
For alarm reporting to a private telephone number, or when only a analogue (PSTN) telephone line is
available, the AlphaVision ML can be expanded with the PSTN plug-on board. The PSTN plug-on board is
placed directly on the AlphaVision ML main board and is connected to the PSTN line, or to the analogue
telephone output of the cable/DSL modem. When connected to an analogue output of the modem, the
control panel with PSTN plug-on board can only report to private telephones. When connected to an regular
analogue PSTN line the control panel with PSTN plug-on board can report to a monitoring station and/or to
private telephones.
For more information about alarm reporting over a PSTN line, consult the installation company.
GSM PLUG-ON OPTION
When no fixed telephone line is in the premises and the AlphaVision ML needs to report to a monitoring
station or private (mobile) telephone, the control panel can be expanded with a GSM/GPRS plug-on board.
The GSM plug-on board uses a SIM card with subscription and can report messages over the GSM network
to a monitoring station and/or to private (mobile) telephones. For more information about GSM reporting,
consult the installation company.
GPRS PLUG-ON OPTION
The GSM/GPRS plug-on board can also report alarm messages over the GPRS network. GPRS data reporting
is only possible when reporting to a monitoring station and can be used as a primary or backup dialer. The
GSM/GPRS plug-on board needs to be equipped with a SIM card capable for GPRS data communication. For
more information about GPRS reporting, consult the installation company.
INTEGRATION WITH KNX HOME AUTOMATION (V3.50 AND HIGHER)
The AlphaVision ML can be integrated to a KNX home automation bus to enable/disable lighting and other
KNX devices during a particular event in the AlphaVision ML. For more information about KNX intgeration
please contact your installer.
