EasyLine 4G Cloud PSTN line simulator for alarms with Contact ID

Telephone line simulator and 4G communicator for alarm control panels

EasyLine 4G Cloud is a communicator with analog PSTN line simulation, designed to connect existing alarm control panels via the TIP/RING terminals. It generates line and ring voltage and manages DTMF tones, allowing the control panel to use the mobile network for voice communications and signaling.

The device supports the Contact ID and 4/2 protocols and the transmission of Contact ID codes to the security system via GPRS/LTE data channels in SIA-IP and Enigma formats. It also offers a configurable input, an open collector output, and remote management functions via the cloud.

Main functions

• PSTN TIP/RING line simulation, with line and ring voltage and DTMF transmission.
• Contact ID and 4/2 support via telephone call; Contact ID forwarding over data network in SIA-IP and Enigma formats.
• Two-way voice communication and remote access to the device connected to the TIP/RING terminals.
• An input configurable NO or NC with respect to GND and an open collector output.
• Notifications via SMS or voice call to up to 8 numbers.
• Output control by calling up to 1,000 numbers or by unlimited callers, depending on configuration.
• Programming via SMS, ProRead software on PC or cloud; monitoring and status check via mobile app.

Surveillance and customer identification

The module can transmit signals to the monitoring center via call or data network. The customer number can be set in the communicator, independently of the one programmed in the control panel. With the "GPRS connection only" option, Contact ID messages are forwarded over the data channel using the monitoring parameters configured in the module, ignoring the telephone numbers set in the control panel.

Entrance and exit

The input can be configured as normally open or normally closed with respect to GND. When activated, it can send an SMS or initiate a voice call to up to 8 numbers; texts and voice messages can be configured via ProRead.

The open collector output can operate in monostable mode, returning to the initial state after the set time, or bistable , changing state at the next command. Indicated range: maximum 30 V / 300 mA .

Cloud, monitoring and diagnostics

• Remote configuration and management via the cloud, input status notifications and output control from the app.
• Forward Contact ID messages to the cloud, with push notifications and email capabilities using a data SIM.
• Supply voltage monitoring with configurable alarm threshold and fault and reset notifications.
• Periodic operating signal (heartbeat).
• Log up to 16,000 events and record signal strength history with up to one hour of resolution.
• Query the status of input, output, power, SIM, network registration and signal strength.

Applications

Line simulation for alarm control panels and other telephone devices, transmission of signals to security, and remote control of automation outputs or arming/disarming of a connected control panel. It can also be used with telephone switchboards and elevator communication devices, subject to system requirements and compatibility verification.
