The central receiving unit is a control terminal that
can be located at a waiter station, in the kitchen, at the host's desk, or
wherever else may be convenient. This device can optionally sound an alert notifying
that a call has been received, and it will display the number of the call
bell, which in restaurants is usually coordinated with the table number,
requesting service. This is also where the call is cleared once it has been
taken care of, and where interaction with the call bells (such as assigning
the numbers to them, or receiving an alert that one of them has a low
battery) takes place. If you order call bells with table numbers on them, the
call bells can be pre-programmed into the receiving terminal, and all that
you must do when it arrives is plug it in, and RECS is ready to operate. The
receiving terminal requires an antenna* and a 12V DC power adaptor. Only one
receiving terminal is needed for up to 99 call bells. You can choose
from any of the three keypads shown in the picture above, on either of
the two plastic cases—white or black. *If you choose to use an antenna not sold by us, RECS’s range of operation may be less than advertised. |
