- each receiver unit typically has required each receiver unit to be on a separate circuit.
- relays were sequentially activated until the proper receiver unit was chosen. Utilizing sequentially activated relays resulted in the total system being particularly susceptible to false noise trippings and ultimately an alarm being sent to the wrong receiver unit.
- a system which provides for the transmission of a signal indicative of an alarm signal to any one of a plurality of receiver units on the same circuit. This is achieved by switching a carrier or basic signal at a frequency so chosen to match the frequency of a tone module in a receiver unit, i.e., the desired receiver unit. Then, after the basic signal has been coded by a Gamewell Coder to provide source information as to the alarm status, the coded alarm signal is transmitted and received by only the chosen receiver.
- This invention is particularly advantageous since it is especially adaptable to be connected in a McCulloh alarm circuit without interfering with the normal alarm signals typically associated with the McCulloh circuit.
- the retransmission unit comprises a source producing a basic signal transmitted at a frequency chosen to substantially eliminate noise problems typically associated with transmission systems. This basic signal is switched at a rate which corresponds to a frequency of a tone module associated with the selected receiver unit. Only the selected receiver unit will receive the forthcoming basic signal transmitted in a code indicative of the alarm location, and thus allow an alarm register unit associated therewith to be activated.
- the drawing is a system diagram illustrating an exemplary embodiment of the basic concepts of an alarm retransmission system comprising a retransmission unit and a plurality of receiver units on a single DC circuit, in accordance with this invention.
- a McCulloh alarm circuit typically includes receiving equipment such as a DC voltage source and relays (or a solid state receiver in many modern adaptations) located at a central station. This equipment is connected through telephone lines to various subscriber alarm units.
- the alarm units may be of the fire and/or burglar type typical in alarm systems.
- the alarm units or McCulloh transmitters are typically connected in series and include a normally closed switch in series with the line and a normally open switch connected to ground. The switches are activated by means of a code wheel or the like, in a particular sequence usually in response to the operation of an associated alarm sensor.
- each wheel rotates and operates the switches, thereby providing a coded set of pulses.
- Each wheel has different teeth removed to realize the coded set of pulses, indicative of the location of the alarm unit.
- a different code will result from the activation of each code wheel.
- Each pulse in the coded set produced by the activated code wheel typically presents information in three pulse intervals.
- the first pulse interval represents the opening of the normally closed switch
- the second pulse interval represents the closing of the normally open switch
- the third pulse interval represents the normal condition. That is, when the normally closed switch is opened, the entire series loop of the McCulloh system is broken; and when the normally open switch is closed, the series loop is grounded.
- the McCulloh system generates a coded set of pulses to indicate an alarm condition and the location of the alarm event.
- the system of the drawing is illustrated to include on one McCulloh alarm circuit, six receiver units.
- the number of receiver units shown is a matter of choice, as an exemplary embodiment, and the utilization of a single circuit is not to suggest that a separate circuit is required for this alarm retransmission system.
- the retransmission unit 10 located at a central station may readily be switched into any one-of a plurality of McCulloh alarm circuits by means of line relay unit 11 thereby requiring just one retransmission unit 10.
- Switches 19-24 control the line relay 11.
- Relay 11 controls contacts 11a, 11b, 11c, and 11d which, when activated, connects equipment in the retransmission unit 10 to the telephone line.
- the retransmission unit 10 includes a source such as a power oscillator 12 which transmits a basic signal to remotely located receiver units 13 through 18 through a 15 hertz filter unit 29 to the telephone lines.
- Filter unit 29 allows the l-cycle signal to propagate down the telephone line towards the receiver units 1318, but prevents the l5-cycle signal from feeding back to the retransmission unit and into the McCulloh receiver 30 and causing false signals.
- the oscillator 12 is chosen to transmit a basic signal of Hz. since l5- hertz is sufficiently remote from 60 Hz. (line frequency) and Hz. (bell frequency) interferences.
- an alarm signal (such as that indicating a fire) is received, by any means, at the central station, the appropriate fire station is selected. This selection is achieved manually or'automatically, with the criteria including information as to the distance between the fire station and the subscriber who has activated the alarm'signal. Of course, the selection may be determined in advance for every contingency.
- receiver switch units 1924 When accomplished manually, an operator will determine an appropriate receiver switch (e.g., receiver switch units 1924) to select the corresponding receiver unit (e.g., receiver units 13-18) located remotely.
- the line relay unit 11 connected to output of the receiver switch units 19-24 controls which McCulloh or DC circuit is to be used.
- the basic signal from the source 12 is transmitted to the receiver units 13 through 18 at a frequency which corresponds to that of the desired receiver location by means of a command unit thereby forming a first signal.
- the command unit 25, including timing circuitry, is electrically connected between the outputs of the receiver switch units 1924 and the source 12.
- the command unit 25 turns the basic signal from the source 12 on and off (or modulates the basic signal) at a frequency which corresponds to that of tone module (to be discussed later), in the desired receiver unit i.e., at the chosen command frequency which is set into the command unit 25 by means of receiver switch units 19-24.
- the modulating frequencies of the command unit are chosen for illustrative purposes to be l.2 Hz., l.4 Hz., 1.6 Hz., 1.8 Hz., 2.0 Hz. and 2.2 HZ. Each modulating frequency corresponding to a receiver unit (e.g. 13-18).
- the retransmission unit 10 acts as a transmitter which provides a basic signal modulated at a command frequency to allow only the desired receiver unit (the one having a tone module at the same command frequency) to receive a second signal containing alarm location information.
- the basic signal transmit-' ted at the selected command, (the first signal) acts as a low frequency presignaling signal and is transmitted for approximately 10 seconds as provided by the timing circuitry of the command unit 25 to the receiver units 13 through 18.
- the command unit 25 is also electrically connected to the source 12 through a delay unit 26, which in turn is connected to a one-shot unit 27, which in turn provides a start pulse once activated, to a Gamewell Coder 28.
- the output of the Gamewell Coder 28 is connected as a second input to the source 12.
- the Gamewell Coder 28 is a unit which is manually programmed to send a sequence of pulse in a code, which code may be indicative of alarm' location information.
- Delay unit 26 provides a three second delay after the ten second transmitting of the first signal has expired.
- the one-shot 27 is activated and produces a pulse which starts the Gamewell Coder 28.
- the source 12 is now activated and produces a pulse which starts the Gamewell Coder 28.
- the source 12 is now activated, or turned fully on and off, i.e, modulated, at a lower rate (such as less than 1 hertz, which is out of the tone modules bandwith) than any command frequency, by the Gamewell Coder 28 to provide a second signal or a retransmitted signal.
- the Gamewell Coder 28 modulates the 15 Hz. carrier signal or basic signal of unit 25 to transmit a coded message to the receiver units via the 15 hertz filter unit 29 and the telephone line.
- the retransmission unit 10 also includes a hold-off timer circuit 32 connected between the source 12 and the command unit 25 to reset the command unit 25 after a predetermined time such as approximately 18 seconds. This delay is sufficient to allow the receiver units 13-18 to reset to standby after receiving a retransmission signal.
- the retransmission unit 10 may also include further delay circuitry (not shown) to prevent different coded signals indicative of a different alarm location from being sent immediately successive. This is to allow the previously used receiver units to time out and thus allow only the newly addressed receiver to receive the retransmission signal.
- receiver units 13 through 18 are strategically located with each receiver unit having included therein a tone module such as tone module 33 in receiver unit 18.
- each tone module is typically a plug-in low frequency active filter with a band-pass centered at a unique predetermined value such as 1.2 Hz., l.4 Hz., 1.6 Hz., l.8 Hz., 2.0 Hz., and 2.2 Hz. to correspond with the modulating frequencies of the command unit 25.
- the receiver unit 18 (as well as receiver units 13 through 17), will receive forten seconds, the basic signal modulated at the chosen command frequency from source 12 over the McCulloh circuit or the like through an active low frequency filter 34.
- Filter 34 is electrically connected to a first detector 35 which converts the 15 hertz signals or first signals to pulsating DC at the modulating frequency of the command unit 25.
- the output signal of the first detector 35 varies at a repetition rate which corresponds to the selected modulated frequency of the command unit 25.
- the output of first detector 35 is electrically connected to a gate 36 and the tone module 33.
- the tone module 33 is tuned to one of the six different frequencies from l.2 Hz. to 2.2 Hz.
- the tone module 33 is connected to an input of a second detector 37 and allows the pulsating DC (if the pulsating DC is at the frequency of the particular tone module) to pass to the second detector 37.
- the second detector 37 converts the pulsating DC to a steady positive DC voltage.
- the output of the second detector 37 is connected to an input of a delay timer unit 38. After an 8-second delay, the delay timer unit 38 produces at its output a steady DC voltage. Thus, after 10 seconds, the modulated l5-cycle signal or first signal stops the DC voltage output-of the second detector 37 and thus the steady DC voltage output of the delay timer unit 38 drops to zero.
- the output of the delay time unit 38 is connected to an input of a negative pulse sensor 39.
- the pulse sensor 39 senses the negative going pulse at the output of the timer 38 (after 10 seconds of transmission by the source 12 as modulated by the command unit 25).
- the pulse sensor 39 is connected at its output to an input of a first 10 second one-shot 40 which in turn is connected to the gate 36.
- the first ten second oneshot 40 When the first ten second oneshot 40 is activated by the negative pulse sensor 39, it produces an output for 10 seconds, which allows the gate 36 to pass signals from the output of the first detector unit 35 through a relay coil 41, which in turn produces an output to associated recording equipment in a manner well known in the art.
- the Gamewell Coder 28 produces coded pulses before the ten seconds are up, these coded pulses will pass through the gate 36 to the relay coil 41 and thence to the recording equipment.
- the output of the gate 36- is also connected at its output to an input of a second l0-second one-shot 42, which in turn is connected at its output to an input of gate 36.
- the gate 36 is kept open by the second 10- second one-shot 42 for ten seconds, each time a coded pulse passes through the gate 36. At the end of the last coded pulse, the gate 36 finally closes after 10 seconds, and will not pass coded pulses until the proper presignal (i.e., first signal) is received.
- this system may include provisions for sending an acknowledgement code, such as by an acknowedgement transmitter located in such receiver unit and an acknowledgement receiver located in retransmission unit 10, in any conventional manner.
- the retransmission unit 10 In operation. and assuming that the alarm retransmission system is sharing a typical McCulloh circuit, when an alarm signal is sent over the common McCulloh circuit, the retransmission unit 10 will transmit a first signal to the receiver units 13-18 connected in the same McCulloh circuit. This is accomplished by an operator.
- an appropriate modulating frequency e.g., 2.2 Hz.
- the command unit 25 selecting an appropriate modulating frequency (e.g., 2.2 Hz.) in the command unit 25 which will correspond to that of the tone module in the desired receiver unit (e.g., receiver unit 18).
- the chosen frequency (2.2 Hz. for illustration) will modulate the basic signal from the source 12 to produce a first signal.
- This signal will be transmitted via the 15 hertz filter unit 29 and the telephone line to all the receiver units on the same McCulloh circuit. Since each receiver unit 13 through 18 has a tone module set at a frequency different from the others, and which frequencies correspond to modulating frequencies of the command unit 25, only the selected receiver unit will be properly addressed by the first signal.
- the addressing or presignaling is accomplished by a tuned tone module, such as module 33 tuned to one of 5 the modulating frequencies (e.g., 2.2 Hz.) of the command unit 25. Tone module 33 will only allow the 2.2 Hz. signal to pass through to the negative pulse sensor 39 which will activate the gate 36 through the first ten seconds one shot 40 when the first signal stops.
- Tone module 33 will only allow the 2.2 Hz. signal to pass through to the negative pulse sensor 39 which will activate the gate 36 through the first ten seconds one shot 40 when the first signal stops.
- the second signal which is the basic signal modulated in a code by a Gamewell Coder to provide alarm location information is then transmitted to all the receiver units.
- the selected receiver unit e.g., unit 18
- the selected receiver unit has its gate 36 open (because of the first signal) and passes the coded pulse (originating as the second signal) to the relay coil 41 and thence to recording equipment.
- the retransmission unit 10 and the receiver units 13-18 include circuitry which will reset their respective units after specific time has elapsed as previously explained. 20
- a reliable single circuit alarm transmission system capable of operating in harmony with a McCulloh alarm circuit has been achieved by providing an alarm retransmission system utilizing a retransmission unit and a plurality of receiver units.
- the retransmission unit transmits a first signal to the plurality of receiver units on the same circuit and preselects the appropriate receiver unit by the use of a tone module tuned to the frequency of modulating of the first signal.
