The GfS-Day Alarm is easy to install. It is a cost-effective alternative to monitor the locking of doors along escape routes.
The device is plug-and-play and does not require wiring due to an optional wireless reed contact. It should be installed within a distance of up to 30 m from the wireless reed contact. It is, of course, also compatible with a standard door reed contact, but in that case, it must be wired. When the door is opened, an alarm is triggered, which is also visually perceived by the built-in alarm light in the device. Authorized persons can use the doors without triggering the alarm simply by using a key. The device's status is indicated by a red or green LED.
If the door is not closed after an authorized opening, an intermittent tone sounds after 15 seconds of open time, and the green LED blinks. Once the door is closed, the red LED lights up again, the intermittent tone is turned off, and the device is armed. A permanent release of the door can also be achieved via the key switch. The corresponding pictogram "Door alarm secured" indicates that it is a monitored door. If the door is used on both sides, a button should be installed on the outside (e.g., in the lock storage, so that the storage can be exited at any time). The switch only allows authorized passage and does not trigger an alarm. This setting, as well as a permanent release, can only be made directly on the Day Alarm device by an authorized person.
The elegant, anodized aluminum housing of the GfS-Day Alarm is well-suited for use in areas with public traffic.
