TAP Interface

Schematic showing TAP interface

The TAP interface links paging services that support the Telocator Alphanumeric Protocol (TAP, IXO, or PET) to North's Extensible Object Model. The TAP interface connects to a PSTN modem to send messages to the TAP bureau.

Many mobile phone and paging networks world-wide support the TAP standard including, in the UK: O2, Vodafone, T-Mobile , BT paging, Orange, and PageOne.

The TAP interface and acts as an alarm destination, so other systems on North's Extensible Object Model can send messages to the paging equipment.
