PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The VB-2 and VB-3 Audio Modules are designed as add-on accessories for the
DVS-1200. DVS-2400, and DVS-2408 Security Systems. Each module plugs
directly into the unit’s circuit board. The modules provide voice prompts for
operating the system and voice feedback for remote command of the system
through a pushbutton telephone. The VB-2 module features 2-way audio and
audio listen-only capabilities for Central Station monitoring.

The digitally synthesized human voice produced by the module annunciates
important system information through the Console’s speaker or through a remote
speaker. Both modules are pre-programmed with a multi-word vocabulary. Each
time the system’s mode is changed, the voice module will sound the status of
the Console and its sensors. The volume control adjusts the voice level.

With either the VB-2 or VB-3 installed, and the Console connected to a telephone
line, local or off-site telephone sets can be used to control and interrogate the
DVS-2400 or DVS-2408. To gain access to the system, the user first enters their
user code. The module’s voice will then prompt the user to press various
telephone buttons to control the system. The DVS-1200 can be accessed only
from off-side telephones.

The VB-2 module supports 2-way audio communications with the Central Station.
The small microphone supplied fits into the Console’s case. The microphone’s
high-gain amplifier allows the Central Station to monitor the sounds in the
installation. The Central Station operator can control the direction of the 2-way
communications using a pushbutton telephone. In 2-way mode, the operator can
talk back to the subscriber through the Console’s speaker or a remote speaker.

IMPORTANT !!!

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in
portable wireless signalling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.

For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and
Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and
therefore limited range.

A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be
blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of
code settings.

Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.

Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected
interference or fault.

A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a
wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate
users.
