FAQ
What is the primary purpose of the PageTek Pro 2L system?
The PageTek Pro 2L is primarily designed to alert hearing impaired individuals in commercial and industrial premises during fire or other emergencies where audible sounders are the normal means of indication. It ensures comprehensive safety coverage for all occupants regardless of hearing ability.
Which standards does the system comply with?
The system is designed to comply with BS5839-1:2017 recommendations for alerting the hearing impaired to fire alarm activation. It also meets Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU, RoHS Directive 2015/863, and various EN standards including EN 300 224, EN 301 489-1, and IEC 62368-1:2020.
How does the unique coding prevent interference from neighbouring systems?
All Scope systems use coding which provides a minimum of 2 million different codes, expandable to 16 million using inherent features of Scope pagers. This prevents false triggering of pagers from neighbouring systems, especially important where multiple transmitters are installed on the same site.
What antenna options are available for different coverage requirements?
Three antenna options are available: 3/4 wave fixed antenna for most commercial sites, Mini Dipole antenna for larger sites or areas of difficult propagation, and Folded Dipole antenna for maximum coverage such as campuses and multi-building sites.
How does the system alert users when pagers go out of coverage?
If any Scope pager goes out of coverage, within two minutes the pager will vibrate until acknowledged and display a “No Service” message. The message remains on screen until the pager is back in service, with reminder vibrate alerts every 15 minutes as recommended in BS5839-1:2017.
What pager options are available with the system?
Available pagers include GEO 40A10 (alphanumeric, 2 line, 40 character), GEO 87Z (alphanumeric, 4/8 line zoom, 80/160 character), and EPOCSM (responder/paging transceiver with desktop charger). All feature distinct vibrate alerts for emergency messages and comprehensive status indication.
