The following dates were fixed: - latest date by which the EN has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2003-06-01 - latest date by which the national standards conflic

In this standard, annex A is normative and annex B is informative. EN 50134-1 :2002 -4- Introduction A social a
19、larm system provides 24 hours facilities for alarm triggering, identification, signal transmission, alarm reception, logging and 2-way speech communication, to provide reassurance and assistance for people living at home and considered to be at risk. A social alarm system is comprised of a number of
20、 system parts which can be configured in different ways to provide this functionality. A user can request assistance by the use of a manually activated trigger device resulting in an alarm triggering signal. In certain cases, alarm triggering signals can be generated by automatic trigger devices. A
21、local unit or controller receives the alarm triggering signal, switching from the normal to the alarm condition and indicating this to the user (some systems use an optional pre-alarm condition that allows the user to reset the alarm for a short period of time). The controller normally transmits the
22、 alarm condition to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) via the alarm transmission system. The ARC can either be local to the controller or remote from the controller. The ARC has the facility to identify the local unit, alarm type and to then establish two-way speech communication between the alarm rec
23、ipient and the user. The alarm recipient provides reassurance to the user and directs assistance where appropriate. In some cases, the alarm may be diverted to an alarm recipient using a personal receiver. In this case, the alarm is identified to the alarm recipient and a two-way speech communicatio
24、n path established to the user and receipt of the alarm acknowledged to the controller. In all cases, the system records the time, date, location and type of alarm. The system is designed to detect and report fault conditions affecting the transmission of alarms. In some cases, temporary disconnecti
25、on of a local unit is possible to minimise faults or prevent alarms triggered inadvertently affecting the correct operation of the system. -5- EN 50134-1 :2002 1 Scope This standard specifies the minimum requirements for a social alarm system. For people with disabilities (e.g. visual and hearing im
26、pairment), additional requirements not covered in this series of standards may apply. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at appropriate places in the text and the publicat
27、ions are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

36、ger device; - local unit; - controller; - alarm transmission system; -ARC. -7- EN 50134-1 :2002 All system parts shall comply with the relevant part of the EN 50134 series. Additional equipment shall not prohibit the correct functioning of the social alarm system. Please refer to Annex A (normative)
37、 and Annex B (informative). 4.1 Local unit and controller identification The system shall be capable of identifying the local unit and the controller which is in the alarm or fault condition. 4.2 Alarm and fault identification The system shall identify the different types of alarms and faults. 4.3 2
38、-way speech communication facility a) A social alarm system shall be equipped with a 2-way speech communication facility to allow verbal contact between alarm recipient and the user. b) 2-way speech communication between the alarm recipient and the user shall be provided following the receipt of an
39、alarm from a manually activated trigger device. c) In a system where the direction of the speech communication is manually switched, the direction shall be controlled by the alarm recipient. 4.4 Use of personal receiver(s) In the case of a personal receiver(s) being used to receive alarm and fault s
40、ignals, the system shall be configured so that, in the case of no response from the personal receiver(s), the alarm and fault signals shall be automatically transmitted to an ARC. 4.5 Fault indication The system shall have the facility to indicate faults affecting the transmission of alarms and faul
41、ts. 4.6 Calling the user If the facility exists to call the user in a non-alarm situation, then a) the call shall be preceded by an audible signal, b) the system shall have a privacy function to allow the user to prevent listening in and this function shall be overridden in an alarm condition, c) if
42、 the privacy function is active, the user shall have to take a positive action before a 2-way speech communication can be established. 4.7 Logging alarm and fault conditions The system shall log alarms and faults by recording the following: - date and time of alarm or fault; - identity of the local
43、unit and controller; - type of alarm or fault condition. EN 50134-1 :2002 -8- 4.8 System design a) The design of the system shall prevent any single local unit and controller prohibiting the functioning of other local units and controllers. b) The design of the system shall incorporate a back-up ARC
44、. 4.9 Confirmation of alarm or fault reception The system shall confirm to the controller the reception of an alarm or fault signal. Environ mental classes There are 4 environmental classes which apply to system parts: Class Environment I II Indoor in general III Indoor but restricted to a residenti
