New Module Delivers Simple DECT Messaging
Interface
Recognizing the growing demand amongst users to
integrate traditional onsite alarm messaging systems with DECT voice solutions,
Wavelink has released a simple, cost effective messaging interface which
translates outputs from a wide range of Nurse Call or other third party high
level alarm systems and delivers them as text messages to KIRK DECT system
handsets. This removes the need for users to carry both a pager and a cordless
handset around their workplace.
Supported by both the KIRK dect-z 500 and 1500 DECT
systems, the Messaging Module delivers text messages to a compatible cordless
handset (or groups of handsets) wherever there is DECT radio coverage on a site.
The KIRK system allows alarm messages to be received by a cordless handset, even
during a phone conversation.
The module is pre-programmed to support both current and
previous generations of the most common Nurse Call protocols, while the free
text interface translates RS232 text string output from high level interfaces
such as fire panels, building management systems and production control systems
into text messages. Thus, the module is suitable for both healthcare as well as
a wide range of industry applications. The module can be used as the cordless
messaging interface in a new system installation or to upgrade an existing site
with onsite messaging capability.
The messaging module is extremely easy to
configure and very cost effective compared with full-blown multi-input /
multi-output messaging platforms, as it only supports text output to KIRK
systems (and not other outputs such as paging systems). The module is programmed
via PC, but does not require a PC to be permanently attached once configured;
again reducing costs substantially. Remote programming of the module is possible
via its in-built modem, allowing changes to system settings, user configuration
etc.
