Call Back Telephone Number
Item Location Option Default New
Call Back Telephone
Number
0159 - 0174 15 = Telephone termination 15
The locations store the telephone number to call when Upload/Download is requested or the
user holds down [6] to initiate a modem call from the control panel to establish a
communications link with the remote computer. The computer must be running the A-Link
Plus software and must be set to Waiting for an Incoming Call. The Call Back Telephone
Number is also required if Remote Connection with Callback Verification is required.
Ring Count
Item Location Option Default New
Ring Count 0175 0 = Panel does not answer
1 - 13 = Number of rings until panel
answers
14 = Answering machine bypass 2
15 = Answering machine bypass 1
8
This location sets the number of rings before the control panel answers an incoming call. Set
this count to an acceptable level, noting that one ring is “Ring, Ring – Ring, Ring” and that a
Ring Count of 10 represents approximately 60 sec. This location has an effect only if Remote
Arming, remote Upload/Download using A-Link Plus, or both are enabled. Programming this
location to 0 prevents the control panel from answering incoming calls regardless of other
programmed options.
Answering Machine Bypass
Answering Machine Bypass allows a connection with the control panel for Remote Arming or
Upload/Download when an answering machine or facsimile machine is on the same telephone
line. Answering Machine Bypass has two different methods. Program a 14 to use the
secondary method only when there is a large amount of traffic on the line (at a home office,
for example). This method reduces the chance of the control panel incorrectly answering an
incoming call.
Programming the Ring Count to 15 enables Answering Machine Bypass in the primary mode.
When calling the control panel, allow the telephone to ring no more than four times and then
hang up. If after 8 seconds you call again within 45 sec, the control panel answers the call on
the first ring and the connection is established. This prevents the answering machine or
facsimile machine from answering the call. To enable Answering Machine Bypass only when
the system is armed, select Option 4 in Location 177 (refer to Communication Options 1, page
77).
Program the Ring Count to 14 to enable Answering Machine Bypass in the secondary mode. In
this case, call the control panel and allow the phone to ring no more than twice and hang up.
Wait a minimum of 8 sec and call the control panel again within 45 sec. The control panel
answers on the first ring. If you do not wait the 8 sec, the control panel does not answer the
call. To enable Answering Machine Bypass only when the system is armed, select Option 4 in
Location 177.
