About i-on Style
Designed by Eaton, world leaders in the
design of quality equipment, i-on Style is a
high-reliability, professional alarm system
intended for use in fully-wireless domestic,
social care and small commercial
applications.
The system supports up to 40 wireless
(radio) detectors and, if required, an
additional 4 detectors wired directly to the
control unit.
i-on Style alarm systems provide a
comprehensive range of communication
options, configuration settings and
peripheral devices, which provide the
flexibility needed to customise the system
to match the requirements of the most
demanding applications.
System components
This section outlines typical components
that your alarm system may include. Other
components may be used, depending on
your requirements.
Control unit
This is the main processing unit of the
alarm system. From a user’s view, its main
features are as follows (Figure 1):
•
Colour LCD display – This shows
messages, prompts and options that
guide you through the user interface.
•
Microphone – To record voice memos,
or to enable two-way communication
with another person over a phone link.
•
Keypad – This allows you to set or
unset the system, access user options
and acknowledge alarms. You can
identify yourself to the system by
entering your unique access code at
the keypad.
•
Proximity tag reader – Each user
can have a unique proximity tag.
Presenting your tag accesses the
system in the same way as if you had
entered your access code.
•
Loudspeaker – This can, for example,
replay voice memos, or produce tones
when the system is being set or unset.
(There is a separate powerful sounder
inside the control unit that produces
alarm sounds.)
Detectors
Detectors are devices that detect alarm
conditions. Below are some popular
examples, all of which can connect
wirelessly (via radio) to the control unit.
Note: Many other detectors are available,
including flood, shock and tilt sensors –
please contact your installer for details.
Passive Infra-Red (PIR)
movement detector.
Pet-tolerant versions are
available.
Smoke detector.
Door contact – to detect
when doors are opened.
Perimeter PIR detector – to
monitor external areas
such as gardens. Dual-
sensor technology and
pet-tolerant mode ensure
reliable outside operation.
Note: A zone is the lowest-level item
that you can set or unset. Since there is
normally only one detector per zone, the
terms “zone” and “detector” are often
used interchangeably.
