ACU2000
Paging Alarm System
 The
ACU2000 Paging Alarm System is an alarm input
monitoring device and remote control unit
that monitors up to 12 optically isolated input
lines and communicates the input line state
change (alarm) to send a predefined message
via ethernet to either a nominated server PC
running the Alarm Central software, an i-Page
Server, a third party monitoring or logging
program or it can send an email. These alarm
messages can then be sent to a pager, pagers
or via email, SMS or other wireless messaging
method to alert appropriate people or systems.
It can also communicate with other ACU2000
units for remote control using their onboard
relay outputs.
Primarily
used as an paging alarm system it can also
be used for remote alarm gathering and transmission
to other network based systems using standard
protocols. ACU2000 units can also be used to
remotely control each other by, for example,
the alarm input on one unit activating a relay
on a remote unit over an ethernet LAN.
Remote alarm
indications can activate a local or remote
relay action or can initiate an email message
or a short message to either a pager, SMS cellphone
or other mobile communications device.
The ACU2000
Alarm Concentrator can be interfaced directly
via RS232 to any of the other Selective Communications
wireless data products such as Mobile
Data Terminals and Paging
Data Terminals.
Each ACU2000
provides 12 individually designated inputs
and 4 individually addressable relays and can
be daisy chained with additional ACU2000s via
RS232 if ethernet ports are in short supply
to create a highly flexible remote monitoring & control
system capable of providing dozens of programmable
inputs and outputs.
The ACU2000
may in some circumstances also be used as a
serial to serial RS232 link over an ethernet
network.
