Master 200Plus System Overview
The Master 200Plus (M200+) system is an emergency alarm and communication
system intended for sheltered housing and nursing homes. The system consists of up
to 250 identical M200+ Room Units positioned in each dwelling, in communal rooms
and in staff flats and offices.
M200+ Room Unit
Each M200+ room unit serves as a call-point from which the residents may make an
alarmcall,usingtheintegralcall-button,pull-cordorotherexternalalarmswitch/device
(see M200+ accessories listed below).
Inaddition eachRoom Unithas akeypad anddisplay foruse bythe WardenorNursing
staff; Any unit may therefore be used to monitor alarm calls, to establish speech
communication with the residents and to perform various other control functions.
The Room Unit can be programmed to display messages in many languages, these
include English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Swedish and Italian.

connected to the Room Unit to enable an alarm call to be made from various positions
within a flat. The optional illumination is provided to reassure the resident that the call
has been registered by the system.
Jack-Socket:This enables a pear-drop switch or similar device to be plugged into the
side of the M200+ room unit. This may be removed when not required either by
replacingit withthedummy plug(supplied) orbydisabling thefeature byprogramming.
Smoke Detector:A suitable smoke detector may connected to the ‘Smoke Detector’
input of the room unit. A high priority alarm call is generated if the smoke detector is
triggered.
Remote Alarm 2: One or more of these remote switches may be connected to the
Room Unit to enable an alarm call to be made from various positions within a flat. The
optional illumination is provided to reassure the resident that the call has been
registered by the system. This type of alarm is only avaliable if the smoke detector is
not needed.
Presence Lamp:This lamp is normally fitted outside the room, above the door and
signals the presence of a member of staff in that room.

AllCall Amplifier:The AllCall Amplifier (A200+) is used to generate an emergency
alarm tone in all M200+ Room Units simultaneously (e.g. to evacuate the building) or
tomakeageneralannouncement.OneormoreKS200+unitarerequired.TheKS200+
unit contains a microphone and tone generator, either of which may be activated by a
keyswitch.
D200+ Auto-Dialer: The D200+ communicator in conjunction with the Scantronic
Homelink Extra is designed to interface a M200+ Wardens Call System to an off-site
central monitoring station via the public telephone network (PSTN). When active all
alarm calls are routed to the central monitoring station, where staff can converse with
theresident and determine the necessarycourse of action. Forfurther informationsee
the D200+ Auto-Dialler Installation/Operators Manual.
Door Entry Panel: The Door Entry Panel provides a means of connecting a door
entrancepanel(atthebuildingentrance)toanM200+WardenCallSystem. Forfurther

Resident Mode
Normally the M200+ room unit is said to be in 'RESIDENT MODE'. In this mode the
keypad is disabled so that the resident need only use the CALL button, PULL-CORD,
any remote switches or the PRIVACY button.
Privacy Button
The M200+ room unit display in 'RESIDENT MODE' has only 2 conditions; blank or the
following message:
PRIVATE
This message may be toggled on or off by pressing the PRIVACY button (The grey
button at the top of the unit).
When the display shows ‘PRIVATE’the resident cannot be listened in to unless they
have made an alarm call. If the privacy button is pressed during speech the effect is
only temporary, returning to the previous setting when speech is finished.
The privacy button has several programmable options;
i. ‘Permanently On’ (the privacy button has no effect except during speech)
ii. ‘Permanently Off’ (the privacy button has no effect)
iii. Default to on. The unit will start in the ‘Privacy On’ state, (display ‘PRIVATE’) in
the event of a restart or power failure.
iv. Default to off. The unit will start in the ‘Privacy Off’ state, (display blank) in the
event of a restart or power failure.
Refer to the Installation Manual for details on programming the privacy options.
