Optical alerting with the Lynx Flash
The flash alert forms part of Lynx – our wireless alert system for people with impai-
red hearing. The Lynx uses various transmitters and receivers that alert you to noises
such as a ringing telephone or doorbell, or the first signs of a fire.
The flash alert is a wireless receiver which uses a powerful flashing halogen lamp to
alert the user when one of the transmitters in the Lynx system is activated. The vari-
ous transmitters can be recognised by the different flash frequencies of the halogen
lamp and by the different coloured LEDs. The transmitters send signals wirelessly to
the flash alert. One or more repeaters may also be installed in order to amplify the
alarm signal and thus extend its range.
Examples of how the signal
is transmitted:
