Rath RC4216MR - 16-Zone Refuge Communications Module for Local Alerting

Rath - Avire RC4216MR 16 Zone Add On Receiver represents an impressive wireless communication device designed to increase capacity of emergency communications and security systems. Thanks to EchoStream® 900 MHz spread spectrum technology, the mentioned multi-zone add-on receiver will be able to act as a powerful connection hub for various transmitter modules as well as for wired monitoring panels. This particular product was created specifically for conditions in which signal transmission should be reliable, like in hospitals, business sites, as well as in sites with multiple elevators and other elements when traditional wiring proves itself too costly and inefficient.

Designed in an eye-catching and durable enclosure, the RC4216MR can connect as many as 16 wireless devices with high quality. The discussed item belongs to safety protocol and can provide timely capturing of all important information and communicate critical events to central monitoring panels.

Functionality

The RC4216MR works as a local intelligence for signal processing of all information received wirelessly by corresponding transmitters. The device can receive wireless signals from corresponding transmitters and interpret them into relay outputs for central command or alarm panels.

• Signal Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of signals sent from up to 16 separate wireless devices.
• Multi-Condition Processing: Ability to process a signal sent to identify between primary alarms, low-battery notifications and tamper alarms.
• Relay Logic Management: Provides six Form C relays that can be used as followers, latches, momentary relays, and toggle switches depending on safety protocol requirements.
• Signal Log: History log and present signal readings provided by in-built display.
