1. Introduction
1. What the Voice Dialler does
The Voice Dialler can store up to 6 telephone numbers and record and
play back emergency messages. With a total message capacity of 20
seconds, the choice is yours whether you store 1, 2 or 3 different
messages of variable length for different situations i.e. fire, burglar or
panic / emergency. During an emergency, the Voice Dialler will dial the
programmed telephone numbers in sequence until two calls have been
answered. It will play the appropriate recorded message to summon help
depending on the type of signal the Main Unit receives from its detectors.
The telephone numbers and the messages are all stored in EEPROM so
that no data is lost once programmed.
Types of alarm detected :
Fire from Smoke or Gas detectors
Burglar from Door Switch, PIR Detector or Broken
Glass Detectors.
Panic / Emergency from Panic or Silent Panic buttons or Hand
Held Controller or Emergency Pendant.
2. Model
The Wireless Voice Dialler is designed to be used with our wireless
home alarm systems. It can accept alarm signals from two sources :
1) Radio signal from the Main Unit.
2) Alarm signals from detectors attached to the unit itself.

3. NUMERIC KEYS
These are used for keying in the emergency telephone numbers. You
can also set the priority of the telephone numbers to determine which
numbers are tried first in an emergency. When you wish to test the
system, you also use these key for specifying which number you want
to test.
4. SET KEY
The SET key is used to define the emergency telephone numbers and
relative priority numbers.
5. TEST KEY
The TEST key is used to test the Voice Dialler. It can actually dial
and get through to the emergency phone numbers you have selected.
6. CE KEY
The CE key will stop any current activity and return the Voice Dialler
to idle.
7. REC KEY
The REC key is used to record emergency messages.

10. SYSTEM ID CODE SWITCH BLOCK
The system ID code switch block contains 8 switches. There are 3
positions on each switch, up, middle and down position, being
marked "+", "o", "-" respectively allowing 6561 code combinations.
These switches are used to set the system ID code.
11. DC 12V JACK
For connecting the AC adapter.

12. TONE/PULSE SELECTION JUMPER
This 2-pin jumper (JP2) is used to select whether traditional pulse
dialling or tone dialling method is used. If tone dialling is used, the 2
pins of the jumper or shorted (with a clip between them). If
traditional pulse dialling is used, the 2 pins of the jumper are opened
(without a clip between them). Tone dialling is the default setting.
13. TERMINAL BLOCK
This 5-pin terminal block is for connecting any existing non-wireless
alarm detectors you may have. When the detector connected to the
Voice Dialler is activated, the Voice Dialler will directly dial and
send the message. However, the Main Unit will not be activated.

2. About the power supply
An AC power adapter is required to connect to a wall outlet. Use only an
adapter with the appropriate AC voltage ratings to prevent component
damage. The adapter should provide 12V DC output and 300mA
capacity.
The Voice Dialler has 2 options, with built-in rechargeable battery or
without battery.
With rechargeable battery
In addition to the adapter, there is a rechargeable battery inside the Voice
Dialler which serves as a back-up in case of power failure. The battery
used is Ni-Cd 8.4V rechargeable battery.
During normal operation, the AC power adapter is used to supply power
to the Voice Dialler and at the same time recharge the battery. When the
battery is fully charged, it can provide back-up power for a period of at
least 7.5 hours. It takes approximately 36 hours to charge the battery
fully.

3. How to mount the Voice Dialler
The Voice Dialler can be placed on top of a table or mounted on the wall.
For table mounting, position the bracket as the picture shown below, then
slowly lift the bracket upwards.
4. Preparing the Voice Dialler
1) Open the protective cover.
2) Set the system ID code.
To set the ID code, slide open the protective cover, you will see 8-dip
switches are set as following :
Switch 1, 5, 8 are in the up position.
Switch 2, 4, 6 are in the middle position.
Switch 3, 7 are in the down position.
This is the default setting.
If you wish to change the setting, use a small screw driver to set the
new system ID code. The same ID code should appear on each unit in
the system.

Note : If you are using this Voice Dialler with our alarm system
having 256 ID code combinations, (that is when the system
ID code switch block of the alarm system has only 2
positions, up being the ON position and down being the OFF
position), please not the down position marked as "-" of the
Voice Dialler can’t be used. Only the up and middle position
can be used.
Voice Dialler (6561 codes) Alarm System (256 codes)
UP (+) = UP (ON)
MIDDLE (o) = DOWN (OFF)
DOWN (-) not used
3) Set the tone/pulse jumper
If your telephone system uses tone dialling, make sure the tone/pulse
jumper is shorted (with a clip between them). If your telephone
system uses traditional pulse dialling, pull up the clip (jumper should
be opened).
4) Close the protective cover.
5) Hang the Voice Dialler on the wall or put the Voice Dialler on top of
the table by using the appropriate bracket.
6) Plug the cord of the AC adapter into the DC jack.
7) Plug the AC adapter into the wall outlet. You will hear a beep sound
and the RDY LED (green LED) will start flashing. The Voice Dialler
is now ready for operation.
5. Basic operation
Notes :
A. When pressing any key, you will hear a beep, this lets you know
the keystroke has been accepted.
B. When entering keystrokes, the interval between two keystrokes in
a setting sequence must not exceed 5 seconds, otherwise, the keys
you have entered earlier will be ignored and the Voice Dialler
will return to idle.

C. When idle, the RDY LED is flashing slowly every 1 second.
When you start the setting, the RDY LED will flash fast. This let
you know the setting is in progress.
D. If any time you want to abort the current keyings, just press "CE"
and you can restore again.
E. If a setting sequence is sucessfully done, you will hear a long
beeping indicating the setting is accepted. However, if bi-bi-bi
sound is heard, this indicates the setting is incomplete or aborted,
or the interval between two keystrokes exceeds 5 seconds.
