AlphaVision ML User manual Rev. 2.60 – 01-01-2015 26
REPORTING TO PRIVATE (MOBILE) TELEPHONE
If the AlphaVision ML is equipped with an optional PSTN (analogue) or GSM plug-on board and the control
panel reports alarms to private telephones, the AlphaVision ML will call to the programmed telephone
number to report an alarm. The control panel can report using a Siren tone (fixed line or mobile phone) or
SMS text messages (mobile phone only)
►! From firmware V2.0 and above the dialing sequence to private (mobile) phone numbers will be
terminated inmediately after the system has been disarmed. This to prevent that friends and family
are called due to a false alarm or user error.
When using the optional speech plug-on board, the AlphaVision ML can also report pre-recorded speech
messages (fixed line or mobile phone).
Acceptance mode
When reporting to a private telephone number, the receiving party needs to confirm the alarm message by
pressing a numerical key on his/her phone. This confirmation code is required to inform the AlphaVision ML
control panel that the message is received and understood by the receiving party. When the control panel
reports to more than one telephone number, the installation company can program whether ‘SINGLE’ or
‘ALL’ telephone numbers need to confirm the alarm message.
The receiving party can confirm the alarm message by pressing <9> on his/her (mobile) phone. When
‘SINGLE’ is programmed, the control panel will stop dialing and regard the alarm reporting as finished.
When ‘ALL’ is programmed, all programmed telephone numbers need to confirm the alarm message by
pressing <9> on their (mobile) telephone.
When the Siren tone message protocol is used, the dialed party will hear an alarm tone when the phone is
answered. The Tone message is confirmed by pressing <9> on the (mobile) telephone.
When the SMS text message protocol is used, the SMS server will automatically accept and confirm the
alarm message. When using SMS text message reporting to more than one telephone number it is
important to only use ‘ALL’ acceptance.
When the Speech message protocol is used, more options are available:
Speech/Listen-in option
The AlphaVision ML control panel can also be expanded with a speech/listen-in option. For this option the
control panel must be equipped with a speech plug-on board including a keypad with integrated speaker
and microphone, a speakerphone or a separate speaker and microphone. The speaker and microphone
allow the called party to start a 2-way conversation between themselves and the local user of the
AlphaVision ML or to listen-in to the premises. The called party can switch between Speak out <2> or Listen-
in <1>. Consult the installation company if this option is desired.
When using the speech plug-on board and reporting with the Speech message protocol, the called party will
first hear the house ID (if recorded), followed by the speech messages indicating which event occurred in
which zone. Finally, the system status is reported. Besides confirming the alarm message with key <9>, a
number of other options are also possible:
Key 4: Partial arming
Key 5: Request system status
Key 6: Total arming
Key 7: Activate output (latch or pulse)
Key 8: Deactivate output (latch) or activate output (pulse)
Key 9: Confirm alarm message and disconnect
Key 0: Disarm control panel
