Description
Picture this: A freezer in your restaurant hits the wrong temperature at 2 a.m., or someone pulls the fire alarm in your warehouse. Instead of hoping someone notices, the Viking K-2000-DVA instantly calls up to eight different people (or pagers) and plays a clear, custom voice message so the right team responds fast.
This rugged little box also works great as a “store caster” – perfect for announcing “Customer assistance needed in aisle 13” over your paging system without ever making an outside call.
Expert Take: Choose the K-2000-DVA when you have multiple areas to monitor or want room to grow. For tiny installations needing only one or two triggers, the K-202-DVA saves money. Compared with basic competitors, Viking’s call progress detection and flexible timers make the K-2000-DVA far more reliable in noisy or busy phone environments.
