STC Personal Activation Devices
The Guardian STC5 and STC6 Personal Activation Devices are
worn by all members of staff that require protection. Both are programmable and
offer a number of levels of "call" type. Once activated the personal activation
device transmits the signal to the receiver units, along with the transmitters
own unique ID code.
Features unique to the Guardian Personal Activation Device are the programmable User ID and the "retained" rip-out peg. Once activated using the "rip-out" activator, the STC Personal Activation Device can be released from the hand leaving the unit operating in a hands free mode.
There are two types of Guardian STC Personal Activation Devices available, as described below. Both of these are programmable and the programming options available are discussed in LIMK Configuration Kit Manual.

STC5 Infra Red Personal Activation
Device
The Guardian STC5 Infra Red Transmitter Personal Activation
Device comprises of Infra Red Transmitters, battery monitor circuit with
confidence LED, push button activator and attack level "retaining peg"
activation method. With the pin removed the unit will transmit the call signal
for up to 8 minutes before shutting down to allow the call to be reset in the
event of a hostage situation.
The Guardian STC5 transmits on a high infra red frequency as well as the standard infra red frequency. This means it is ideal for use on sites where high frequency switched lighting has been installed, and overcomes the potential problems associated with this type of lighting technology. It can also be used on older sites where the standard Guardian AIRX4 IR Receivers have been installed.
STC6 Dual Technology (IR + RF) Personal Activation Device
The Guardian STC6 Dual Technology Personal Activation
Device comprises not only of infra red transmitters, battery monitor circuit
with confidence LED, push button activator and attack level retained peg
activation method, but also has a radio transmitter and aerial built into the
unit. The unit, once activated, sends an Infra red signal as described above,
and simultaneously sends the same codes via the radio transmitter.
This dual technology provides RF back up to the infra red, or additional coverage to larger external areas such as Staff Car Parks, where it is impractical to use infra red.
The Guardian STC6 transmits on a high infra red frequency as well as the standard infra red frequency. This means it is ideal for use on sites where high frequency switched lighting has been installed, and overcomes the potential problems associated with type of lighting technology. It can also be used on older sites where the standard Guardian AIRX4 IR Receivers have been installed.
Whatever your working environment, installing the Guardian staff protection system will give staff the assurance that someone is looking out for them, providing a safer and more confident workplace.
The five key components that make up the personal alarm system include:
AIRX3 - Addressable External Infra Red Reciever
The Guardian AIRX3 is an addressable external infra red receiver unit. This component of the personal alarm system is housed within an IP65 rated weatherproof case, designed specifically to provide coverage for external areas such as courtyards, patios and gardens. The installation and operation of this unit is similar to that of the AIRX4 and AIRX7 units, with the addition of extra connections for external call and reset buttons.
All cable entry points are made through the cable gland at the bottom of the unit to ensure that no moisture ingresses into the electronics.
The design of the Guardian AIRX3 , along with the sun filter, means that it is immune to interference from sunlight. The unit should be mounted high on an external wall to prevent tampering. In the event of tampering with the AIRX3, the unit has a tamper switch built into it, which will alert the Display units.
As with all
the Guardian addressable IR receivers, the unit is addressable. It has a
removable jumper to disable the two colour reassurance LED which, when active,
indicates that the unit is operational.
DISP1 Alphanumeric LCD Display Unit
The DISP1 Alphanumeric Display Unit component of the personal alarm system, is the device used to sound the alarm and identify the location of each incident along with the level of assistance required. The display can also show the identity of the staff member calling for assistance.
The DISP1 features a two line 16 character back lit LCD display and a multi level adjustable alarm. The unit features different tones for different levels of call as well as having the capability of sounding a different tone for selected call points (doors, drugs cupboards, telephone etc). The DISP1 can also be setup to display specific call points (zoning) if required. There is an Open Collector output which can be connected to the RB1 Relay Board or used directly to trigger external equipment. All DISP1 Display Units are identical, but each can be configured to operate independently or as a slave display to a master unit
