PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Unique Features

This system offers several features unique to most security systems.
CELLEMETRY®
Cellemetry® is a patented two-way wireless data network that uses standard cellular infra-
structure to transport small packets of communication messages throughout North America.
The technology is currently used on Verizon, AT&T and Cingular cellular networks
providing a near seamless network on a proven cellular network architecture.
This technology is proven and reliable using the digital control channels, not voice channels.
Messages traverse existing AMPS cellular network infrastructure (like roaming cell phones).
The control channels are more robust than the voice channels because of the use of digital
technology, higher transmission power offering better coverage, and cost effective use due
to small amounts of information being transmitted at a time. The analog cellular network is
one of the largest radio networks in the world with over 200,000,000 packets of data trans-
mitted daily in North America. This only represents 10% of the maximum control channel
capacity.
The DS100 JobSite Security Portable Alarm System (Base Unit) contains a 1.2 watt
cellular data radio providing rapid communications in less than 1 second. This technology is
superior to phone line monitoring because phone lines are inherently vulnerable, readily
identifiable, and thieves potentially cut them before entering a site.
This product can be used virtually anywhere in North America where cellular coverage is
available, with no roaming fees. See the Coverage Map in the Appendix.
This notification happens instantly and will provide direct feedback when system is armed.
This unique feature helps to provide the ultimate in protection of commercial assets and
rapid response notification.

900 MHZ, FREQUENCY HOPPING SPREAD SPECTRUM

Spread Spectrum is a frequency-hopping communication technique that sends redundant
messages across a bandwidth of at least 10 MHz to provide immunity from interference
and help ensure reliable communication. This communication between the Base Unit and
sensors provides coverage of up to 2000' enabling superior range and reliability. Virtually
all 300MHz systems send information on one narrow band channel. Any "in-band" interfer-
ence can result in missed signals.

DS200 KEY CHAIN REMOTE CONTROL
The DS200 Key Chain Remote Control offers the benefit of easy one-touch arming or
disarming of the system from a range of up to 2000'. The remote uses 900MHz spread
spectrum communication to provide superior range and reliability. The LED feedback
light notifies the user when a signal is being sent to the Base Unit. Also, a convenient
carabiner clip is included for versatility.
The DS200 Key Chain Remote Control uses a CR-2 3.0 Volt Lithium battery.
To arm the system, press LOCK ( ) once. To disarm the system, press UNLOCK ( )
