Emergency dial

[ptonsparky]

Small town has what used to be set of apts for the elderly. The manager wants at least one location in each unit to be equiped to dial an emergency number when it is activated. Any suggestions?

Looks like a good place to start.

Thank you.

im sure they have ones that work similar to the way a burglar alarm works. when it activates it seizes the phone line to send out its signal. i never wired an emergency dial phone but im just assuming thats how it would work

I'd doing some work in a senior living center. Monday, I have to look into their emergency callout system to see if we can modify it, if I find any brand info I'll post it up.

Viking makes a bunch of gizmos that do this sort of thing.

The system is a Tek Tone.
