Network Bell System – Control & Manage Multiple Bells at Multiple Locations Over A Network
Built-in remote function, manage multiple bells across multiple locations with the easy-to-use BellScheduler program
All of the Netbell products are built on TCP/IP platform with a built-in server. With Linortek’s remote scheduling function built into the Netbell products, we have now made it super easy to expand your timed alert system cross different locations. Whether you have a large warehouse, separate areas that need multiple bells, or multiple buildings even they are in different locations, we have the solutions! For locations where running additional wiring is not an option, but network is available, you can build a networked bell system. Wire the bells or buzzers to the Netbell, connect the Netbell to your network, download our Discover program to find the IP addresses from your network, download our special designed BellScheduler program. You now can setup a system over a network or Internet without the need of hard-wiring the bells to a central control station.
Networked Bell System BellSchedulerr
Master – Slave Networked Bell System
The Netbell software includes a remote function that can deliver a signal from a master bell controller to remote bells or horns in multiple locations as long as all the units are on the same network. This means you only need to schedule your master bell controller, then all your remote bells will ring at the same time after you setup the remote function. The feature is useful for schools or factories that have a need for audible signals in separate areas or multiple buildings where running additional wiring is too expensive or not practical.
There are several ways to build a networked bell system:
- The simplest way is to install a Netbell at each of your locations, create your schedules in one of the Netbell controllers, then download your schedule to a .txt file and upload it to the other Netbells, this way all your bells will ring at the same time, no remote configuration required. This solution also gives you the option to set different schedules if needed at multiple locations.
- The other option is to use an existing network to build a bell system. In this application, you will use a Netbell as your master controller for scheduling, and our Fargo or Koda controller as the slave controller. Link the slave controller with the master controller via their IP addresses. A typical use case for this Master-Slave feature is to build an emergency alarm system using the Netbell multifunction PA system and the Koda 100 controller. Click HERE to find out how!

You can add a single device or multiple Netbell devices to the BellScheduler by simply enter the IP address and login credentials. You can also create a CSV file with multiple devices in it to upload to the Scheduler.
Create different schedules in the BellScheduler and save as txt file on you computer
You might have a normal day schedule, a short day schedule, etc. Create a bell schedule file in the Scheduler and Save. When needed you can upload to the Bellscheduler and then upload to multiple Netbell devices with a single click. You can edit each schedule or add new ones after uploading the schedule file to the BellScheduler. Once the bell schedule is finalized, click Upload button to apply the schedules to all the Netbell devices, or to part of your Netbell devices of your choice. The BellScheduler just makes scheduling your bells incredible easy!

I purchased 3 Netbell systems for our manufacturing plant. First, the buzzers work great and have helped our breaks start and stop much more consistently. Even more, their customer support is INCREDIBLE. Maria is the best I've ever been helped with. She first helped me get everything wired and installed myself. About a year later, she helped me on the live chat on their website and she walked me through everything so well. Everyone dreads customer support. With this company and Maria, it is actually super helpful. You don't wait forever. You don't wait for responses. You are dealing with really brilliant and personable people. I'm just super impressed.

I will make mine short. we had issues with trying to get connected to our network. Maria one of the support techs helped me out for about 4 hours trying to get it connected to our network. after exhausting all our options we found out that with our upgraded network we needed to get IT involved to let this device talk to network. now it is just a matter of getting all the timers dialed in and putting it in operation.

The school I work for has been using a Linortek bell system for years and we just upgraded to a new bell/PA system combo. We're still in the process of installation but so far, they have been super helpful in answering all our questions and talking us through details, and I have been very happy with the quality of the new system in my initial testing.
Highly recommend!

IT support Technician Maria Oborskaya was such a big help in getting the Bell system up and running. She was always polite and respectful, not to mention an expert at her position, couldn't be happier!!
