Used in apartment houses and other multi- family dwellings to provide intrusion, fire, smoke, medical, or panic emergency alarm signal to main annunciator station.

The Alpha Communications®/Tektone SF202B Tek-Alert™ series apartment intruder alarm system is designed for intruder, panic and other alarm indications, in a multi-dwelling application. The model SF202B provides for connection of detection devices to signal intrusion through doors or windows, or to signal fire, smoke, medical, panic, or other emergency conditions.

The intruder alarm is armed by selecting either the IN or OUT mode, and pressing the middle button on the unit. As an aid to prevent false alarms, the unit cannot be armed unless the protected doors and windows are closed, and the Green L.E.D. is lighted. In the IN mode, the unit is ready for instant operation after approximately 40 seconds. In the OUT mode, a 40 second delay permits exiting. When returning, a 25 second delay allows the occupant time to disarm the unit, during which time a pre-alarm tone is heard as a reminder. The unit is diarmed by entering a private four-digit code on the push-button keypad. If the unit is not disarmed, a loud pulsating tone will be heard, and may be transmitted to external alarm signaling devices. The alarm will continue for five (5) minutes, unless disarmed, and then will stop. A flashing Red L.E.D. will continue to signal that an alarm has occurred.

The panic alarm is activated by pressing buttons 2/7 and 4/9 (marked 'ALARM') on the unit simultaneously, or by pressing any panic buttons that may be installed on the premises. A loud steady tone will be heard and will be transmitted to external devices, if connected. The panic alarm will continue until reset by entering the four-digit disarm code.

An output is provided to operate a remote annunciator station. An external relay (model #SF210) is available to operate external alarm devices. For complete security, battery backup should be provided to retain alarm status, and to provide alarm service during and after a power interruption.
