Additional Considerations
Annual verification of timing of an alarm and a fault message is required. ATS5 requirements is the arithmetic mean of all transmissions is less than or equal to 20 seconds and 95% of all transmissions are less than or
equal to 30 seconds. Time is measure from the moment the message is reported on a local keypad to when the monitoring station receiver successfully receives the message. This can be accomplished by contacting the
monitoring station and sending a test message and calculating the time from which the message appears on the local keypad and when the monitoring station receives the same message. As with traditional land-line
reporting an acknowledgment (kiss-off) signal is used when the IP150+ or PCS Series sends a valid message to a receiver that is typically used in a monitoring station. This acknowledgment is generated within 5 seconds.
Discuss with your service provider the different options that are available for monitoring; for example, the frequency of supervision.The transmission of an alarm message may be negatively affected by a variety of
factors. These may include disruptions in 3rd party services like Internet access and GSM service. If after a set amount of transmission attempt are unsuccessful local and remote messages are generated. Standard set of
commonly available hand tool are require to install equipment; no equipment adjustments are necessary. When configured as indicated the IP150+ / PCS Series surpass the ATS5 performance criteria set out in EN 50131-
1; the on board dialer surpasses ATS 2 performance criteria. The period from the time a fault develops in the alarm transmission system until the fault information is reported to the alarm receiving center and/or
monitoring center shall not exceed 180 seconds for ATS 5, and 25 hours for ATS 2 performance criteria as defined by EN 50131-1. This is achieved through settings in the Security Profile of each account at the receiver
Equipment or settings the Auto Test Report to run every 24 hours. Refer to receiver instruction documentation for further information. As required per clause 7.5 of EN 50136-1-1, records of all faults and of all
performance verifications carried out on the alarm transmission system shall be maintained. Requirements include the availability of these records for inspection, and availability analysis calculations based on these
records. Consult the standard for more detailed information.
