3 APPLICATIONS AND WORKING PRINCIPLE
Tecniplast Remote Alarm System (RAS) has been developed to simplify the work of facility managers and operators by
providing them with an easy-to-use monitoring of Tecniplast equipment and machines.
Each piece of equipment features a transmitter (the TX) which transmits any alarm condition to a receiver (the RX).
Each receiver (ideally located inside one of the facility rooms), is designed to receive signals from 10 transmitters and
to send at the same time an alarm message to a centralised receiver (the CX) which can monitor a number of RX
simultaneously (maximum 10).
Any time an alarm is transmitted to the RX (and CX), the system sends a voice message to the phone numbers
recorded in the RX setting pages by means of a PSTN dialer*.
Voice messages may be customised by the user following the dialer instructions for use directly on the phone.
Up to 100 Alarm messages are logged by the system in FIFO logic.

3.1 HAZARDOUS AND INAPPROPRIATE APPLICATIONS
Tecniplast disclaims all responsibility for any uses other than those stated in this User Manual unless previously
authorised.
Here is a list of some hazardous applications that should be avoided:
• Operation by inexperienced or untrained personnel.
• Housing in an environment not compliant to the “Environmental Requirements” described in TABLE 1 - TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATIONS
• Operation of the equipment with highly flammable materials.
• Operation of the equipment in an explosive environment.
TECNIPLAST disclaims all responsibilities deriving from improper use and incorrect maintenance
If the equipment is used in a manner that is not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired
* The PSTN dialer is installed in the WW version only. All the related function will not be available on the

5 RAS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
5.1 RX AND CX ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The RAS is to be connected to the power supply protected by suitable protections in compliance with laws
and regulations in force in the country where the machine is installed.
The RAS is to be installed in compliance with IEC/EN 60950 Standard, and controlled by an external cut off switch.
Before installing the system, connect the Rx and CX to the power supply cable, phone cable and outputs as shown
hereunder:
• Insert the cables into the slot on the RX and CX housing.
• Carry on with the following electrical connections:

installation specs) and, if necessary,
fix them into position.
Connect the power supply
cable and signal cables so as to
guarantee adequate clearance
between mains and SELV circuits so
that they do not get in contact.

5.2 HOW TO MOUNT THE RX/CX ON THE WALL
• Screw the support plates to the RX – CX housing
• Mark four holes on the wall at the most convenient height
• Drill the wall and insert the screw anchors.
• Screw the RX – CX housing to the wall.
16
5.3 RX, CX AND TX CONNECTION
1. Turn on the CX (if present)
2. Set an ID for each CX
If there are many CX installed in the same site,
each CX must be given a different ID.
