Speech Dialler Operators Manual
4 INS233
The Speech Dialler provides a means of communicating alarm information from an
alarm control panel to a standard or mobile telephone. The unit is normally connected
to an alarm control panel, which provides the necessary power and battery backup.
The unit is also connected to a standard telephone line and behaves like another
extension to the telephone and does not affect its normal operation or that of any
other extension fitted.
Inputs: The Speech Dialler has four trigger inputs; each input can be assigned a
voice message and/or a text message. The trigger inputs are normally connected to
the alarm control panel communicator outputs or bell output. Other devices such as
smoke detectors or temperature sensors can be directly connected to the trigger
inputs. The polarity of the trigger inputs can be programmed as either +ve or -ve
applied.
Contacts: The Speech Dialler will store up to 8 contacts; each contact can be
assigned a name, telephone number, message type and acknowledgment type.
The Speech Dialler must NOT be used to call the Police via the Emergency
Services phone numbers.
Voice Messages: The Speech Dialler has a built-in microphone and speaker so that
audio messages can be recorded and replayed directly from the unit. The Speech
Dialler can store up to four separate voice messages; each message can be up to 32
seconds long. Message 1 is related to trigger input 1, message 2 is related to trigger
input 2 and so on. Voice messages should therefore be recorded to reflect the type of
alarm that is connected to the trigger input, e.g. if input 1 is connected to the “Fire”
output on the alarm/fire control panel then message 1 should state that there is a fire
alarm at the premises.
Text Messages: The Speech Dialler can also send text messages to mobile
telephones using the SMS text service (Short Message Service). The unit does this by
calling a SMS service centre, which takes the text message from the Speech Dialler
and forwards it to the contact’s mobile telephone. The unit can store up to four 32-
character “alarm” messages and one common “site details” message. When the unit
sends a text message it appends the “alarm” message to the “site details” message.
The “site details” message would normally hold the name or details of the premises
being protected.
Acknowledgement: On receiving a voice message call from the Speech Dialler the
contact person answering the call can acknowledge it at any time by pressing number
[8] key on their telephone. If the voice message is not acknowledged then it is
repeated ten times, after which the Speech Dialler abandons the call and dials the
next available contact. Each contact can be configured to either acknowledge the call
only or acknowledge and stop the dialling sequence, i.e., after pressing the [8] key on
their telephone the call is acknowledged and no more contacts are dialled.
