Introduction
The ALLPLEX track Personnel Transmitters are security transmitters designed to work with the
Security Escort system. When an alarm is initiated, a signal identifying you and your location is
sent to the Security Escort Central Console. The Central Console displays your location on a
map along with related information.

Robert Bosch (SEA) Pte Ltd Installation Manual 2014.03 | V1.0.0 | DL

System Overview
During an emergency, a person presses and holds the alarm button to produce an alarm.
Generally the system sounders, strobes, or sirens activate within two seconds.
The alarm signal transmits to the receivers which relay the alarm signal to the transponder or
AT coordinator, and to the central console. The central console shows the person’s location
on a map, along with a photograph, name and vital information such as a medical condition or
disability.
The transmitters are available in the following models.

Basic Transmitter Features
This section provides information of the various features of the transmitter.
Transmitting a Manual Alarm
Initiate an alarm by pressing and holding the Alarm button for 1 second. This emits a series of
mixed tones for 2 seconds and sends an alarm signal to the Central Console. If alarm is
activated within sight of a receiver, the red LED on the receiver lights up. After initiating a
manual alarm, the Auto Tracking feature sends your latest location to the Central Console
every 7 seconds (configurable).
Reset the transmitter after a manual alarm by performing a test as described in Testing the
Transmitter, page 16.
Man-Down Alarm
Whenever you are in a prone position (60° from upright) for more than 5 seconds
(configurable), the transmitter emits a series of mixed tones for 2 seconds, and sends an
alarm signal to the Central Console. There are no tones or alarm signal if transmitter is
restored within 5 seconds (configurable). If alarm is activated within sight of a receiver, the
red LED lights up.
Reset the transmitter after a Man-Down Alarm by returning the transmitter to the upright
position and performing a test as described in Testing the Transmitter, page 16.
Lanyard Snatch Alarm
Initiate an alarm by pulling the lanyard off the transmitter. This emits a series of mixed tones
for 2 seconds, followed by short beeps at 250 millisecond intervals. The transmitter sends an
alarm signal to the Central Console. If activated within sight of a receiver, the red LED of the
receiver lights up. The Auto Tracking feature sends the latest location to the Central Console
every 7 seconds (configurable).
To reset the transmitter after a Lanyard Snatch Alarm, reinsert the lanyard pin and perform a
test as described in Testing the Transmitter, page 16.

Robert Bosch (SEA) Pte Ltd Installation Manual 2014.03 | V1.0.0 | DL

Testing the Transmitter
Test your transmitter by standing within sight of a receiver or siren-strobe. While holding
down the Test button, press the Alarm button until the transmitter emits 3 short beep tones. A
test transmission is sent to the Central Console, lighting the green LED on a receiver or the
strobe on an outdoor siren-strobe. There might be a brief delay of 2 to 3 seconds before the
flashing light appears.
If the receiver’s LED or the strobe does not light to confirm a successful test transmission,
retest the transmitter. If you still do not receive confirmation, contact the security
department.
