Remote Connection with Customer Control
Configure the control panel so that a remote connection can be established only when the
client initiates it through the codepad.
1. Program the Call Back Telephone Number in Locations 159 to 174, refer to Call Back
Telephone Number, page 75.
2. Disable Option 1 in Location 180, refer to A-Link Plus Options, page 79. The control
panel is set so the client controls when a remote connection is established.

Remote Connection without Callback Verification
Remote connect without callback verification is useful if you must perform Upload/Download
functions from multiple locations.
Notice!
Reduced security
Using the modem connection without callback verification feature reduces the security of the
control panel.
There are two methods to disable callback verification.
Method One
Method one allows you to call the control panel from any remote location without the control
panel calling back to the computer to establish a link. When using this method, the customer
cannot initiate a modem call by holding down [6].
To program method one:
1. Program Locations 159 to 174 for the Call Back Telephone Number to 15.
2. Select Option 1 and disable Option 2 in Location 180.
3. Program Ring Count in Location 175 as 1 – 13.
The control panel allows a connection of the first call without calling the remote computer
back.
Method Two
Method two allows you to program a callback telephone number so that the customer can still
initiate a modem call when required. When you call the control panel from a remote location
using the computer, the control panel does not call back the remote computer to establish a
link.
To program method two:
