What is Central Station Monitoring?
- This is a service that monitors electronic systems 24/7 and notifies building owners, managers, and/or first responders of an off-normal condition.
Why would you need a monitoring service?
- Most jurisdictions require fire alarm systems to be monitored. Upon activation, the monitoring service will dispatch the fire department automatically.
- Systems integrity. The monitoring station will send notifications if a system in not communicating.
How does this work?
- These systems communicate automatically to the central monitoring station using a device called a dialer.
- First responders are notified of an alarm condition based on local dispatching contacts on file
- The monitoring agents will notify individuals of an off-normal condition based on a pre-set call list submitted when the account is set up
- Account changes can be made at any time using the passcode that is set when the account is set up.
What is a wireless dialer and is there an advantage to using one?
- A cellular dialer is a device that sends the signals to the central monitoring station
- Using a cellular dialer eliminates the cost and need for conventional phone lines
