Tone Alert Receivers

WSI offers a Tone Alert Receiver (TAR) to fit any requirement. The OnAlert® line is a robust indoor warning and communication solution. OnAlert TARs are activated using WSI’s secure web-based communications processor so they can be activated locally or from virtually anywhere. The AdaptAlert™ line is tone activated, so it can be added to an existing tone activated environment such as an outdoor siren system without additional encoder equipment. Either product line can be integrated seamlessly into text messaging and e-mail systems to provide comprehensive alert and warning capabilities.

OnAlert®
OnAlert radios are activated individually, by customer defined common interest groups (i.e., schools, hospitals, day cares, first responders, etc.) or by geographic zones. The radios can also be activated with an all call. The radios will chirp if they require attention, that is, if the battery will no longer charge or if they have not received a signal (time-update) from the activation point within a 24-hour period. Each radio has a self-contained lead acid battery that is continually trickle charged so it can operate for long periods in the absence of commercial power. Once activated, OnAlert radios emit an 85 dB alert tone followed by an operator selected pre-recorded or live public address message. Synthesized audio utilizing Text-to-Speech (TTS) is another valuable option. Audio files can also be uploaded and played on demand. The radios are triggered via a time-synchronized, secure, AFSK activation sequence. All radios are capable of tying in to a standard 600 Ohm PA system. WSI also offers an ADA compliant Strobe and Text Display for hearing impaired and high noise environments.

WSI has offered OnAlert® Tone Alert Radios since 1991. These radios were designed according to stringent specifications for the Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP). We currently offer a VHF (150-170 MHz) and UHF (850-870 MHz) model that are field programmable to any frequency within the respective band segment. WSI has produced and delivered more than 70,000 of the OnAlert radio receivers for emergency management with excellent performance. Other clients include military bases, school systems, oil refineries, textile mills, national laboratories, and County EMA offices.

AdaptAlert™
The new AdaptAlert VHF alerting receiver is field-programmable to any single frequency within the 148 to 172 MHz band segment. It responds to any single-tone, two-tone, DTMF or combination of activation sequences. The built-in flexibility to change frequency and activation code is your protection against equipment obsolescence.
In this world of uncertainty, many organizations are not prepared for the changes in communications space allocation as a result of spectrum demand. This WSI radio provides you with an easy mechanism to change not only frequency but also signaling mode. This means no crystals to change, ever, and no need to replace expensive plug-in tone decoders when your requirements change.

WSI offers an optional programming tool and software that will run on any office PC using a Windows operating system or the units can be factory programmed to your specifications. Our alerting receivers are available in narrow-band and wide-band versions to accommodate your system requirements. Both offer excellent sensitivity and adjacent channel signal rejection. The alerting tone level is sufficiently loud (>85dB SPL) to be heard in most noisy locations or large offices. For high noise environments, such as a gymnasium, factory or warehouse, we offer optional plug-in accessories for extending audio and visual notification. These accessories provide effective alert and notification for hearing impaired and other special needs recipients.
