Wireless Monitoring
and Alerting
Get More Out of Your 2-way Radio System...
Wireless alerting empowers your staff to respond quickly to emergencies, to prevent
costly damage or disruptive downtime. Connect virtually any switch or sensor (up to 4),
to the QuickTalk Transmitter and record a unique voice message for each one. When
the status of the switch/sensor changes, your recorded message is automatically
transmitted via radio directly to your 2-way radio equipped personnel.

Call Button/Panic Alarm –A stainless steel
push button assembly (p/n #RPB-1AG),
connected to the QuickTalk provides an
effective push button alerting solution. With
a simple push of a button, a custom pre-
recorded alert message is transmitted directly
and discretely to radio equipped personnel.
Door Alarm –A magnetic door switch con-
nected to a QuickTalk transmitter allows
easy monitoring of open doors, windows,
tool cribs, etc. It can also be programmed
to monitor and alert when a “propped” door
condition is detected.
Power ON/Fail Alarm –With the Power-Out
Alert connected to a QuickTalk, it can detect
a loss of AC power and immediately trigger
the QuickTalk to send an alert to all radio
equipped personnel. It even works through
repeaters!
Temperature Alert –This device connected
to a QuickTalk lets you monitor and receive
voice alerts for pre-set high or low tempera-
tures. Use for monitoring the environments
of livestock, produce, refrigerated units, and
computer rooms.
Liquid Level –Monitor liquid levels. A simple
marine grade liquid level switch connected to a
QuickTalk can help provide and early warning
alert for both high and low level conditions.
Wireless Shopper Callbox –The RQA offers
the same basic voice-alerting features and
battery powered operation as the RQT, with
the exception that it is a turn-key package
complete with “How Can We Help” label, red
push button, and LED transmit indicator.
