Eaton i-on Compact User Manual - Network Cameras
Page 3
Network cameras
Internal and external
network cameras are
available.
These allow the
control unit to record
and optionally email
images when an alarm
occurs.
Remote controls
Each user can have a
portable remote control
to set or unset the system
or operate output devices
from a distance.
HUA transmitters
Small portable
Hold-Up Alarm (HUA)
transmitters, also
known as Panic Alarms
(PAs), allow you to
start alarms remotely.
Internal radio sounders
These are intended for use
in areas that are out of
audio range of the control
unit but where users need
to hear alarms, entry
tones, exit tones and other
sounds.
Output devices
The installer can configure the system to
control externals devices, which you can
switch on or off from the control unit or
a remote control, or which can operate
automatically when, for example, an alarm
occurs.
The system supports up to 20 radio
outputs.
Key features
This section provides an overview of the
key features, from a user’s perspective, of
i-on Compact alarm systems.
Note: Some features described in this
guide may not be available, depending on
configuration. Please ask your installer if
you would like them to be available.
Comprehensive set/unset flexibility
There are many options available to
the installer to configure the setting/
unsetting process to match your specific
requirements.
If at any time, your requirements change,
please contact your installer, who may
be able to adjust the set/unset procedure
without making any physical changes.
The control unit can set in one of four
ways: either full set or one of three part
sets (part set B, C or D).
When the system is full set, all zones are
set. When the system is part set, only
the zones that belong to the part set are
set. A part set may, for example, set the
downstairs areas, leaving the upstairs
unset (e.g. for use during the night).
Alarm communication
When the system detects an alarm, it starts
the external sounder/strobe units and
operates internal sounders, including the
sounder in the control unit.
If you wish, your installer can also
configure the control unit to communicate
alarms externally to:
• An Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), via
the internet or a fixed-line telephone
network.
• An email address.
• A mobile phone using a text message.
Note: Communications via the internet
is provided as standard. Connecting the
control unit to a mobile (GSM) or fixed-
line (PSTN) phone network requires the
installer to fit a plug-on module.
