Scope PageTek Pro 2 Paging Transmitter for the Hearing Impaired and Maintenance (PTPRO/2M)

The PTPRO/2M adds a RS232 link from the fire panel enabling all panel activity to be paged including pre-alarms and loop and location information**. This data can be sent to a different pager group to be carried by fire marshals, maintenance staff etc.

The Pagetek Pro System is designed to comply with the recommendations detailed in BS5839-1: 2013 for alerting the hearing impaired to the activation of a Fire Alarm System. The system can also be used in conjunction with a security alarm panel to alert guards who might be located remote from the main premises.

The interface to the host Fire alarm system comprises of multiple prioritised Fire inputs and a further input to provide for fault indication from the Fire panel. For ease of installation, a monitored interface cable is provided with the system which also includes a “common fault” relay output back to the host Fire alarm panel. This will activate if the PageTek Pro suffers a mains failure, transmitter fault, antenna mismatch, link failure, low battery or missing battery condition.

When the system is used with the add-on AnswerTek Pro monitoring receiver, it will also activate in the event of radio signal jamming, weak signal or loss of signal. All of these conditions are also clearly indicated on the front panel display of the PageTek Pro using simple text messages, together with a fault light and an audible sounder. These fault messages can also be transmitted to a pager or group of pagers for added integrity.

Upon activation of any Fire Zone input, the PageTek Pro system will enter the fire alert condition, prioritising and transmitting the Fire message to all pagers. The transmissions will be repeated until the fire condition is reset. Special format Scope pagers ensure that users are alerted by distinct vibrate patterns and clear text messages.

PageTek Pro 2

The PageTek Pro 2 adds the ability to interface with other devices using a RS232 serial port. Typically this could be linked to the printer output of the host fire panel to provide zone data and other status information to separate pagers carried by maintenance staff etc. 

Pager wearers can also be paged individually using optional Connex Page PC software and Ethernet card.

UHF Radio

An alerting system is only as good as its weakest link: self monitoring systems with excellent diagnostics are all well and good, but if the radio link and system coding are not of the highest possible integrity, then the system will not achieve its purpose. Scope uses only UHF radio frequencies, which provides superior inbuilding propagation.

Unique Coding

Good practice dictates that unique coding is also vital to prevent false triggering of pagers from neighbouring systems, especially where more than one transmitter is installed on the same site (e.g. a university campus). This too, is acknowledged in Section 27.2 of BS 5839-1: 2013. All Scope systems use coding which provides a minimum of 2 million differs; this can be further increased to 16 million using the inherent features of Scope pagers.

** The amount of information and nature of the data is dependant on the make/model of the fire panel
