Dial-In / Dial-Out Telephone Control and Monitoring for ARC Plus Touch

Fast, Reliable Site Access

The Recordable Speech Interface option for ARC Plus Touch gives broadcast engineers control over their remote sites via DTMF commands and voice reporting. A phone call is often the fastest way to check site status and take action. A single touch on your speed-dial button connects you directly to your site without the need for time-consuming IT log-in procedures.

Phone Alerts Get Through

Broadcast engineers need instant notification when a critical site problem occurs, such as an off-air emergency, program loss, or a tower lighting outage. Some of these issues require immediate response to maintain compliance with FCC or FAA regulations. Others can result in off-air time and lost revenue.

Alarm notifications can get lost in the constant noise and clutter of emails and text messages, but a phone call breaks through. Even at night, selective ring tones on your cell phone can wake you up when a call comes from the transmitter site, while letting you snooze though other calls.

Connect Without a Phone Line

A variety of cost-effective options make it easy to connect the RSI phone interface, even without a traditional analog phone line. A Voice over IP adapter can link the RSI to your IP network. A POTS over LTE adapter takes advantage of available cellular services. The benefits of telephone-based remote control are yours over virtually any available communications network.

Redundant Phone Interface Control

When two or more ARC Plus sites are equipped with RSI they can be configured to provide redundant phone access, ensuring reliable connectivity even when there is a phone line failure to one site.

Dial-Out Lists Tailored to Specific Alarms

Each metering and status alarm can be configured to trigger dial-out notifications to telephone numbers on up to 32 unique dial-out lists plus a master dial-out list.

Flexible Voice Messages

RSI features a pre-recorded vocabulary tailored for the broadcast industry and allows users to add up to 1,000 words or short phrases using standard WAV files.
