Linear Home Security System AL 1 User Manual

1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION  
2. OPEN THE CASE  
The Model AL-1 is a wireless personal alert receiver designed for use with existing  
nurse call annunciation systems. In a typical installation, the receiver is used in the  
place of, or in conjunction with, a standard pull cord to activate a corridor light, bed  
light, room light, and any audible devices to indicate the need for assistance. Up to 32  
wireless transmitters can be programmed to activate each receiver.

Three indicators on the front of the receiver display the system status. The green  
POWER indicator lights when power for the receiver is present. The yellow SERVICE  
indicator lights if a transmitter has sent a low battery signal. The red ALERT indicator  
lights when a transmitter has been triggered, showing that the receiver’s outputs have  
been activated.

Pressing the RESET button on the top of the receiver for less than two seconds will  
reset any transmitter low battery indications. Pressing the RESET button for more  
than three seconds will clear the ALERT indication and reset the relay outputs if in  
the latched mode.  
The receiver contains four normally open 1-amp relay contacts that close when  
activated. One relay provides an isolated output. The three other relays are isolated  
when open and have a common return. The receiver relays can operate in “normal” or  
“failsafe” mode. In normal mode, the relays will energize when the receiver is triggered.  
In failsafe mode, the relays are energized continuously until the receiver is triggered.  
Failsafe mode supervises the system by causing the outputs to activate if power is  
removed from the receiver. Both modes provide normally open outputs.  
Power for the receiver is supplied by a plug-in transformer. The receiver can be  
mounted directly to a wall or to a single-gang electrical box with the hardware  
supplied.

IMPORTANT !!!  
ALERT  
RESET  
Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in portable  
wireless signalling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.  
SERVICE  
POWER  
For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations  
as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.  
A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked  
by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.  
Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.  
POWER INDICATOR  
SHOULD BE LIT  
Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected  
interference or fault.  
ALERT INDICATOR  
SHOULD LIGHT  
WHEN THE TRANSMITTER  
IS ACTIVATED  
A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale  
distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.  
SECURE THE CASE BY  
INSERTING THE TWO SHORT  
SCREWS INTO THE BOTTOM TABS
