The D6600 is a 240Volt powered digital alarm receiver with an optional 12Volt backup, 19” rack mountable microprocessor. This receiver connects to incoming telephone lines at your Central Monitoring Station which have been set aside specifically for incoming alarm signals.
Receiving
Your customers’ alarm diallers are programmed to call in on these lines and are answered by the D-6600 Receiver. The D-6600 then negotiates with the customers’ dialler to receive information about the customers’ location, identity and the nature of the dialler call (intruder, fire alarm, power fail, etc).
Decoding
At the completion of the call, the D-6600 commands the dialler to hang-up and passes this encoded information to the PC (or PC’s) with CAMS or similar software installed. The CAMS software then decodes the information and displays it to the Central Station Operator via the PC display; the D-6600 could be considered to be a sophisticated digital modem.
