Ajax ManualCallPoint (Red) Jeweller Wireless Resettable Fire Call Point

Overview

The Ajax ManualCallPoint (Red) Jeweller is a wall-mounted fire call point for an Ajax alarm system. When someone presses the centre element, the hub raises a fire alarm, sets off the built-in sirens of the Ajax fire detectors on the system and alerts users and the monitoring station. It suits corridors, exits and reception areas in offices, shops, schools and apartment blocks where people need a clear, visible way to raise a fire alarm by hand.

Is it right for you?

• It suits an Ajax system that has, or will have, Ajax fire detectors, so one press can sound all of their sirens together.
• It is for indoor walls in a 0 to 50 °C environment; it is not for outdoor or unheated areas.
• It works with Hub (4G), Hub 2, Hub 2 (4G), Hub 2 Plus and the ReX and ReX 2 range extenders; the Ajax compatibility list covers other hubs.
• If you need a wall button for something other than fire, it can be set to scenario trigger, panic, auxiliary alarm, gas leak, water leak or malfunction mode instead.

Key features

• Resettable element: pressing the centre pushes it inward and two yellow stripes show it has been used; the supplied key resets it, so there is nothing to replace after a drill or an accidental press.
• Transparent front lid that you lift before pressing, which protects against accidental alarms.
• Interconnected alarms: one press triggers the built-in sirens of the Ajax fire detectors on the system.
• Critical alerts: the system can sound intrusion sirens and send audible notifications to users even when their phone is muted, on Do Not Disturb or connected to headphones.
• Tamper alarm reports attempts to pull it off the wall or the SmartBracket panel; device authentication guards against spoofing and communication loss is detected after 36 s.
• Two pre-installed CR123A batteries last up to 7 years with typical use (one 1-minute press a week).
• Jeweller two-way radio with encryption and frequency hopping, up to 1,700 m to the hub or range extender in open space.
• Alarm transmission to the central monitoring station (CMS) can be switched off if you only want local alerts.

What else you need

An Ajax hub or range extender from the compatible list and the Ajax app for set-up. Ajax fire detectors are needed if you want a press to sound their sirens; without them the hub still alerts users and can sound the intrusion sirens on the system.

Installation

Fit it indoors on the SmartBracket mounting panel at about 1.4 m in an easy-to-reach place, such as beside an exit. An Ajax installer can position it and add it to the hub in the app. The special tool opens the lock to take the button off the panel and also resets the element after a press; the person responsible for fire safety can keep it on a keyring.

Software and licences

The button is added, configured and monitored in the Ajax app. Its operating mode and CMS transmission are set there.

Before you buy

• Indoor use only, 0 to 50 °C and up to 80% humidity.
• Keep the reset key safe: it is needed to reset the element after each press and to take the button off its panel.
• A deactivated button stays in the system but no longer raises an alarm.
• This listing is the red version, the colour used for fire alarm call points.
