Style and Technology Combined
Linear's RE-1 Residential Telephone Entry system is one of those seldom found products that both makes a strong statement and performs an indispensable function.
In terms of design, the RE-1 has all of the unique features of a high-quality, architectural-grade, custom-designed system. Simple and striking, the RE-1 does much more for homeowners than just offer them a means for screening visitors and allowing entry to their residence. It transmits a subtle statement of prosperity.
In practical use, the RE-1 brings the most advanced access technology to residential entry applications. It is the ultimate combination of security and convenience, with a full complement of voice response abilities, special built-in radio, auxiliary control applications, and an optional closed-circuit television monitoring feature.
Control Functions, Beyond the Gate
The RE-1 comes with two built-in multi-purpose relays for optimum system functionality. One can be used for the control relay and the other for a tremendous number of auxiliary control applications, including special activation of safety edge reverse, external lighting, or alarm shunting.
MegaCode Inside — Telephone Entry is Wireless
The RE-1 is the only telephone entry providing a built-in wireless receiver and antenna. But this is not just any wireless receiver. It's the MegaCode radio receiver made by Linear, the company who pioneered radio frequency based security and access control systems.
This famous MegaCode device supports the use of handheld, visor clip, or keychain transmitters (the industry's largest possible selection) to ensure an additional level of remote control over gates and garage door openers. Its random code selection from over a total of one million factory-set possibilities that cannot be changed in the field completely ensures the highest available protection against code theft and accidental duplication.
Programming is Sophisticated but Simple
Ease and convenience of installation is very much an important part of the RE-1 concept. Programming can also be quickly and conveniently done from the RE-1's keypad or through the use of a touch-tone phone unit.
User programming is extremely easy. For instance, time zone programming is furnished to determine the time and/or day during which residents are active. Programs are also supplied to lock out possible prank calls in the middle of the night, and to lock or open doors and gates as necessary.
Full-Featured Telephone With Intercom Modes
The telephone furnished with this entry system has incredible versatility. In practice it is identical to any residential phone and provides the following unique features:
- Ability to call up to three pre-programmed off-site numbers
- Can produce call waiting tones
- Can call forward through time zones or resident commands.
For on-premises communications, the RE-1 has been equipped with large number of valuable intercom capabilities. For a certain premises having multiple entrances, guest houses, or separate apartments, any of these places may be phoned, because up to seven RE-1's can share the same exact phone line and offer intercom applications.
In addition to all this, a separate INTERCOM mode permits connection of the RE-1 to a PBX telephone system or a separately connected residential intercom system using just a pair of wires.
Optional CCTV
The RE-1 can also be field upgraded with a special closed circuit television package that vastly improves the security capability of the system.
The package contains a compact black/white camera that neatly installs in back of the unit's darkened lens for a concealed, non-intimidating appearance. Infrared illuminators are also supplied to assure that clear images are received in low light conditions. In addition to this, Linear can supply dealer and installers with a CATV multiplexer so they can offer a whole, built-in monitoring answer.
