The Homelink Extra II is an emergency alarm unit which will call a monitoring centre (for example a warden's office) over the public telephone network when the user activates a trigger. The Homelink Extra II can be sited on a desk or it can be mounted on a wall.
Key Features
- Easy to use and install;
- Connects to any existing telephone (not included);
- Alerts family, friends and control centres;
- Built in intruder alarm;
- Emergency two-way speech facility.
The trigger might be the orange button on the front of the set, a small radio transmitter worn either as a pendant round the user's neck or on the user's wrist, or a pull cord on the ceiling.

When Homelink makes the call the monitoring centre can talk to the user and hear the user's replies. Homelink can also be used as a simple intruder alarm, by pressing an "Away" button the user can set the unit to report when, for example, a door contact is activated.
The Homelink Extra II is mains powered, and connects to a standard telephone socket. In the event of mains power failure an internal lead acid backup battery provides power for emergency calls for up to 36 hours.
The installer can programme Homelink to report mains power loss to the monitoring centre. Homelink can also detect a cut or short circuit telephone line.
To report the event Homelink flashes the line fail light, and can be programmed to sound a warning "bleep". Homelink can be programmed either by using a DTMF telephone (limited functions) or a PSION II programmer.
The Homelink Extra II has VHF radio receivers built in and thus can be activated by most of the 4600 range of Tx units and is supplied complete with a 4601 pendant transmitter.
