• Five-minute polling on telephone or radio path in the event of signal-path failure
• Conforms to ABI (Association of British Insurers) requirements by indicating signal-path failure locally
• Conforms to Police standards (ACPO & DD243) and Inspectorate requirements

Since its introduction to the intruder alarm market in 1996, DualCom is officially recognised as the original and most widely used dual-signalling device in the UK. It’s reputation as an advanced, reliable and cost effective signalling device has led to nationwide installations in supermarket chains, high street stores, banks and other vulnerable premises.

DualCom plus is compatible with any telephone network, ADSL and ISDN and uses the Vodafone Packet Radio Service (VPRS) to transmit signals within seconds.

CAN DUALCOM BE INSTALLED ANYWHERE?

DualCom is suitable for the majority of premises in the UK. A major advantage of DualCom is its ability to operate over any telephone network. This means your customers do not have to install a dedicated telephone line for alarm signalling.

Prior to installing DualCom we recommend a few basic, but important, procedures. It is necessary to check that there is sufficient signal strength in the premises of installation. This can be done via the following options:

1. CS1066 RADIO TEST KIT
This test kit searches for the strongest signal in the premises. Once located, you can carry out additional tests such as RSSI and FSSI (reverse and forward signal strength i.e. to and from the nearest base station). Bit error rate can also be checked. This will highlight possible sources of interference e.g. fluorescent lights. The convenient and affordable CS1066 is available directly from CSL. Please contact our sales department for cost and availability.

2. POST-CODE CHECK
Once you establish the postcode of the relevant premises, you can contact our technical help desk for a postcode check. A reading of the level of signal available for that area will be given. However, please note that this method does not take into account local interference such as a metal skinned building etc.
