Section 5: Programming
Paths can be established through either the alarm system’s on-board Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) con-
nection or through the alternate communicator (cellular or Ethernet) if equipped.
Paths to four receivers can be programmed using sections 001 - 004. The communications path for each receiver is defined
by selecting one of the following six options:
[01] Phone Line
Events are communicated through the alarm system phone line programmed in section [301]. If Phone Line is selected for
receiver 1, the phone number programmed in section [301] option [001] is used. If Phone Line is selected for receiver 2, the
phone number programmed in section [301] option [002] is used, etc.
[02] Alternate Communicator Auto Routing
Selecting this option enables the alternate communicator to determine which communications path to use (Ethernet
primary/secondary, and/or cellular primary/secondary). See the alternate communicator manual for details.
[03] Alternate Communicator Receiver 1
Events are communicated through IP receiver 1.
[04] Alternate Communicator Receiver 2
Events are communicated through IP receiver 2.
[05] Alternate Communicator Receiver 3
Events are communicated through cellular receiver 1.
[06] Alternate Communicator Receiver 4
Events are communicated through cellular receiver 2.
To use PSTN as the communications path, program section [300] options 001 through 004 as [01] PSTN 1.
To use the alternate communicator to establish a communications path, program two of the receivers (section [300] options
001, 002, 003 or 004) as [03] and [04] for Ethernet, and two of the receivers as [05] and [06] for cellular.
[301] Phone Number Programming
Section [301] is used to program up to 4 telephone numbers used to communicate with the central station over PSTN.
[001] The phone number used to communicate with receiver 1
[002] The phone number used to communicate with receiver 2
[003] The phone number used to communicate with receiver 3
[004] The phone number used to communicate with receiver 4
All telephone numbers can be a maximum of 32 digits. Hexadecimal digits may be included to perform the following func-
tions:
l HEX B ([*] [2] [*]) - to dial "*"
l HEX C ([*] [3] [*]) - to dial "#"
l HEX D ([*] [4] [*]) - for an additional dial tone search, as required by PBX telephone systems.
l HEX E ([*] [5] [*]) - to insert a 2-second pause in the telephone number. This causes a static delay of 2 seconds
before any additional dial tone search in a phone number.
l HEX F ([*] [6] [*]) - represents the end of the Phone Number (everything after F is ignored).
l Pressing [#] in these sections exits and saves the entire phone number.
The alarm system does not attempt to communicate using PSTN if no phone number is programmed.
[304] Call Waiting Cancel String
Use this section to program a string that, when pressed, disables call waiting on a phone line. Call waiting cancel is typically
*70 in most areas. Dialing this string before a phone number disables call waiting for the duration of the call.
When this section is programmed and Call Waiting Cancel Options is ON (see "[382] Communicator Option 3" on page 111),
the alarm system dials this string before the phone number. This is only done on the first dialing attempt for each phone num-
ber.
This is a 6-digit field. Fill unused digits with Hex F.
