Communications for today... and tomorrow.
Central Monitoring
Adding features to the Tek-CARE®500 Wireless Emergency Call System

The next big added feature to TekTone®’s wireless emergency call system provides an interface for transmitting alarm messages to a central monitoring station. The new NC502 PC-Alarm Panel receives alarm messages from the Tek-CARE®500 Master Station Computer via an RS-232 connection, and then transmits the messages over a standard telephone (POTS) line to a central monitoring facility.
The Tek-CARE®500 system must have software version 1.5.0.597 or later.
The following features are available with the NC502:
- Uses Ademco ContactID Protocol
- Generates all DTMF signals necessary for communication
- Decodes handshake and kiss-off tones from the monitoring station
- Transmission status is reported back to the TekTone® Tek-CARE®500 system
- Connections are isolated via mechanical relay, opto-coupler and telephone coupling transformer
- Transmission over “Plain Old Telephone Service” (POTS) line
- Straight serial cable, USB to serial adapter, power adapter with cord, and phone cable are included
- NC502 is external to the NC501 Master Station Computer
More information is available in the IL851 specification sheet and the IL815 installation manual.
