DUAL 824 alarm

Across the security industry, the traditional definition of a hybrid system has been one mixing hardwire and wireless components and requiring the addition and installation of a radio receiver. With the DUAL 824, Linear officially breaks with tradition by offering a hybrid control and keypad that includes its own receiver. Not just any radio, the DUAL 824's built-in model is a superheterodyne type with a measured range of 1,500 feet. Because the receiver is located inside the control panel cabinet, installers do not have to take the time to find a separate place to mount it. 824 supports the addition of a second hardwire keypad. A built-in piezo generates alert and alarm tones.

The DUAL 824's control panel is housed in a high-impact plastic box, along with the receiver and a rechargeable back-up battery that features 40 hours of standby power. Inside, there is plenty of room for wire and the battery.

The DUAL 824 has six operating modes and can be configured for one-button operation, for eight user codes (including duress), and to the SLA false alarm standard. Installation and programming are made easy by Linear's RA-2400 remote access software, Linear's quick-learn transmitters, plus default settings that eliminate many steps.Two 824 supports the addition of a second hardwire keypad.

Compatibility with industry's widest line of transmitters and sensors (Linear's supervised DXS series and non-supervised DX series) means that systems can be easily tailored by site and by need. Available models include door/windows, smokes, glass breaks, bill traps, keypads, and single and multi-channel personal transmitters in a variety of styles (handhelds, pendants, minis, and wristbands).
