Scan Alarms recommend that all Intruder Alarm Systems that are designed to signal to the police via an Alarm Receiving Centre (Central Station) should transmit the signals over the British Telecom RedCare high security signalling network. RedCare is the most secure land-line signalling currently available. The RedCare network, when connected to a professionally installed alarm system, monitors and checks the telephone line between the protected premises and the telephone exchange system 24 hours a day. If the alarm is activated or if the telephone line is cut or disconnected a signal is transmitted to the Alarm Receiving Centre (Central Station) who will take the appropriate action. To ensure that you get the most appropriate response to a signal, the RedCare transmitter which we connect to the Alarm System can offer up to eight channels to differentiate between Fire, Intruder, Personal Attack, Freezer and open and closing procedures. Existing Customers with Digital Communicator Signalling. Those existing customers who currently have Digital Communicator signalling can now have their systems upgraded to the high security RedCare signalling. The annual costs for RedCare signalling could be no more than your current costs for Digital Communicator Signalling using a dedicated line.
