1. INTRODUCTION
The Octalarm is an alarm system that signals and reports technical failures and calamities by
telephone, of both manned and unmanned installations and processes.
Alarms can be put through to fixed telephones, mobile telephones, radiotelephones, switchboards or
combination of these, using an analogue ISDN telephone connection (model -I) or a mobile 900 or
1800Mhz network (model -G). There are various optical and acoustic signal options for local alarm
systems.
The Octalarm-T2, -T4, -T8 and –T16 are equipped with respectively 2, 4, 8 or 16 alarm channels. A
telephone report takes place by means of a recognizable tone code or a self-recorded voice message.
The codes for reporting to a pager can be set freely, just like the desired dialling order and the reset
procedures.
The alarm status of the guarded object can be retrieved from each Octalarm using the telephone line.
Furthermore, the Octalarm disposes of:
•
user-definable delay times
•
user-definable start and stop conditions for local alert
•
display of alarm cause
•
built-in emergency power supply
•
mains supply guard

•
Sensornet connection (only for versions T4, T8 and T16)
•

•

•

•
permanent memory for all settings and report texts.
Operation and configuration are menu-driven. They take place using the control panel, via a directly
connected PC, or by telephone line using the built-in modem.
After connecting, a number of fixed installation parameters have to be set on the Octalarm. As they are
of a technical nature and since technical knowledge of, e.g. the connected alarm devices is assumed,
we recommend leaving the entry of this data to the installer. Therefore, this manual is divided into:
•
A general part for the user and the installer.
•
Operation instructions for the user containing all items concerning the configuration and
operation by the user.
•
Installation instructions
for the installer containing all items concerning the connecting of the
Octalarm and the programming of the installation data.
•
A
settings summary
for both the user and the installer.

We advise you to read this manual carefully, so that you can take optimal advantage of all the
application possibilities of the Octalarm.
