Paging Devices

The Federal Signal Informer is a commercial grade Tone Alert Receiver (TAR) designed for use in situations that require an emergency alert. The Informer incorporates a large 4” speaker that creates a very loud output for both live voice and audio alerts. The device can be wall mounted or placed on a desktop and comes with a small detached antenna that can be connected to the back of the Informer for optimum signal reception. This rear connection can also be used to connect an alternative antenna that may be situated in a remote location. VHF, UHF, or Low Band frequency models are available and the Informer operates with narrowband channel spacing.

The Veetronix Tone Alert Receiver is a device for receiving encoded emergency messages and then alerting public safety personnel of the emergency. The receiver has an internal speaker for message output, but other devices like external speaker systems, sirens, and alarms can also be connected. Although the Veetronix is primarily a desktop receiver, it does come with its own mounting hardware for mobile applications. The user can monitor all network traffic or only the messages intended for the receiver through a front-panel Monitor/Tone switch. If programmed tones are received, the receiver will alert in either Monitor or Tone switch position.

The WiPath PDT3000 Paging Data Terminal is a multi-function digital paging device that can be mounted on a wall, in a vehicle, or placed on a desktop to receive and show incoming messages on a large graphical LCD display. The unit itself has the approximate physical dimensions of 9” L by 3.5” H and 2” W while the message display measures about 5” by 1.5”. The sunlight readable LCD displays messages in 8-line format with 40 characters/line, or zooms to a 4-line display with 20 larger characters/line. The PDT3000 has all the features and performance of the WiPath PDR3000 Paging Receiver, and adds the graphical LCD display. The PDT3000 is available in VHF, UHF, or 900 MHz frequency models, comes with either the POCSAG or FLEX coding format, and operates with wideband channel spacing. 40 messages can be stored in memory and 10 of those can be locked and protected from being overwritten if message memory is exceeded.

The WiPath PDR3000 is a multi-purpose Paging Data Receiver that can be used to monitor paging systems and process incoming messages in many different ways. Applications include initiating emergency alerting systems, acting as a paging system repeater, and remote control of devices like LED signs or telemetry instruments. The PDR3000 is the same device as the WiPath PDT3000 Paging Data Terminal, but with no display. The Paging Receiver is available in VHF, UHF, or 900 MHz frequency bands, POCSAG or FLEX coding formats, and wideband channel spacing. The PDR3000 has memory capacity to store up to 40 messages and 10 of those messages can be locked in memory and not automatically erased when message capacity is exceeded. The physical dimensions of the PDR3000 are 9.0”L x 3.7”H x 2.2”W and the receiver has a number of mounting options from which to choose.
