Reduce false dispatches with the easy-to-install PC5950 universal 2-way VOX audio verification module.
The PC5950 allows homeowners to directly engage monitoring station operators in conversation, explaining to them the nature of an emergency. By doing this, a homeowner is able to verify the validity of an alarm and effectively reduce false dispatches.
Communication to the monitoring station is achieved by using handsfree, 2-way instantaneous audio VOX and/or the push-to-talk feature. This is achieved through a combination of microphones and speakers installed in up to 4 locations on the premises.
The PC5950 offers easy and flexible installation. It can be installed into the DSC main control panel cabinet and programmed via a DSC keypad. The module can also be connected to non-DSC control panels and programmed via a touchtone phone.
Your customers will appreciate being able to monitor their premises remotely by simply using a telephone. To ensure privacy, monitoring stations can only listen-in when an alarm has occurred.

The user can also remotely initiate audio monitoring of the premises using a touchtone phone.
