Everything about Telegraph Sounder totally explained
A
Telegraph sounder is a device which produces an audible sound when connected to an operating
electrical telegraph.
It is similar in form to a
relay.
When a
current flows through the
induction coil, the resulting
magnetic field attracts an armature that's held up against a metal arm. When the current is switched off, the armature drops to its resting position, resulting in a "click". When the current returns, the armature is raised back to the upper arm resulting in a "clack." Thus, as the remote
telegraph key makes and breaks a contact, the sounder echos the up and down state of the key.
It is important that a sounder makes a sound both when the circuit is broken and when it's restored. This eases the process of identifying long and short presses of the key to send characters in
morse code.
The default condition of the telegraph circuit is with electricity flowing. This enables the operator to easily detect a fault in the wire.
