The FX 255 alarm monitoring decoder is a compact self-contained unit designed for monitoring of long range data transmitters as a standalone Base or as Repeater within a network.
Alarm activations are received from the T9 transmitters on VHF frequency and decoded at the security control room by the FX255 Decoder.
The decoded alarm activation information is then displayed on the 4 x 20 line LCD display as well as delivered to a computer database via USB or RS232 port.
The home/business owner’s contact details, address and instructions is the displayed on the computer so that the control room staff may take the appropriate action.
