IntelFlex Controller Highlights: • Built in transmitter for paging Vibe/ Tone/ Flash, Numeric and Alphanumeric Pagers. • Send canned and user defined messages to Alphanumeric and Numeric Pagers. • Adjustable RF power settings from 0.1-2.0 Watts. • Time stamped events and an exportable Log (.txt format) are available. • 6 expansion slots allow for increasing capabilities. • “Monitor Before Transmit” eliminates missed pages caused by surrounding equipment.
Optional Expansion Modules: RS232 (Communications): • Supports existing JTECH RS232 Interfaces including Smart Alert Transmitters. • Receives TAP (Telocator Alphanumeric Protocol) at various baud rates. • Receives data input at up to 115,200 Baud. • Connect to a computer to send page information to Vibe/Tone, Numeric and Alphanumeric Pagers. • Connect to a Thermal Printer to print Call4Sure receipts and phone lists. • Develop special applications (User software and interface development may be required).
Magnetic Mount Antenna Choices to Extend Range (Requires FCC licensing) ---- current Desktop controller is for indoor use. Outdoor antenna function is not considered at this time • 3 Ft (0.9m) Magnetic Mount Antenna with 12ft (3.6m) Cable: All metal indoor/outdoor Antenna with a magnetized base for mounting to steel or iron. Wall mounting hardware included for wall mounting to non magnetic surfaces. • 6ft (1.8m) Antenna and 25ft (7.6m) Cable: 6’ (1.
Connect your system for testing. 1. Connect the Antenna and point upward (vertical). 2. Connect the USB port to USB keyboard and RS232 port to PC. 3. Plug in the AC Power Cord into the Adapter. 4. Plug the Adapter into the IntelFlex Controller. 5. Plug the AC Power Cord into a 120VAC outlet. 6. When powered and ready, the Controller will respond to commands sent via the RS232 port. The RS232 protocol is defined on page ___ of this manual.
Connecting the TELCO (Telecommunications) Module for Phone connections. 1. Verify that a TELCO Module has been installed in your Controller. The Module can be installed into any of the expansion slots except slot 6. 2. Connect the supplied RJ11 Cable to the TELCO Module and the other end to a dedicated (analog) telephone line. 3. Up to 5 TELCO Modules can be installed to 5 different phone lines if needed. Each one independently controlled. Paging a single pager using the telephone: 1.
Group Paging using the telephone: Group information can be preprogrammed into the Pagers at your Distributor’s site or JTECH. “Dynamic” Groups can be programmed by the user. 1. Pick up the telephone and listen for the dial tone. 2. Dial the telephone number that has been assigned to the Telco Module installed. 3. Listen for a voice message that confirms the Controller is ready. 4. Within 8-10 seconds, use the telephone keypad: a. Press the * key. b. Enter the Group number (1-99) to page. c. Press the * key.
Programming For The RS232—JTECH Protocol: To communicate with the Controller, the computer software must send RS232 1200 baud message information using the following protocol. RS232 Baud Rate And Settings 1200,N,8,1 (1200 Baud, No Parity, 8 Data Bits, 1 Stop Bit). RS232 Handshaking-Request To Send (RTS) - Clear To Send (CTS) • The Controller uses CTS to allow data out of the Host output buffer. • The Controller does not monitor RTS.
Messages: • • • • Alphanumeric Pagers can be sent a maximum of 120 alpha characters (using separator Chr$(02) orChr$(0A)). Numeric Pagers can be sent a maximum of 16 numeric characters (using separator Chr$(0B) or Chr$(03)). ParentPass or Patron use message characters as controls. PeoplePass ( programmed without Groups) use message characters as controls.
CONTACTS (Using remote contacts to send pages (CONTACTS Module Required) 1. Verify that a CONTACTS Module has been installed if needed. The Module can be installed into any of the controllers expansion slots. 2. Up to 6 Contacts Modules can be installed if needed. 3.
FCC RF Exposure Statement Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
