• HIGH INPUT IDENTIFIER FOR STATUS CHANNEL ONE IS {INPUT OPEN} ... [BEEP]
Any two words from Appendix I: Word List (See Page 125.) can be
programmed to replace {Input Open}.
• ALARM ON HIGH INPUT OF STATUS CHANNEL ONE IS {DISABLED} ... [BEEP]
An alarm for the high state of any status channel can either be enabled or
disabled. That is, with the alarm enabled, the VRC2000 will generate an
alarm if the status channel goes high. When programming the VRC2000,
enter “#” to enable the alarm for this parameter; enter “*” to disable the
alarm for this parameter.
• COMMAND CHANNEL NUMBER FOR HIGH INPUT OF STATUS CHANNEL ONE IS ...
{DISABLED} ... [BEEP]
Any command channel can be programmed to be automatically activated by
a high state on a status channel. The default setting, {Disabled}, indicates
that there is no command channel tied to the status channel’s high state. To
disable an automatic command-channel assignment, program the unit with
the digits “0 0” when setting up this parameter. The “0 0” command-
channel assignment tells the VRC2000 not to automatically activate any
commands when this status channel’s input goes high.
Each command channel has two switches. If the VRC2000 is programmed
to activate a command channel when a status channel is high, the VRC2000
will also ask you to select the switch to be activated for that command
channel. Enter a “#” to automatically activate the B switch; enter “*” to
automatically activate the A switch.
• PHONE NUMBER FOR STATUS ALARM ONE IS ... {DIAL ALL} ... [BEEP]
Program the VRC2000 to dial any or all of the telephone numbers entered
into the unit’s memory when the VRC2000 senses an alarm on status
channel l. The default setting, {Dial All}, indicates that the VRC2000 will
dial, in sequence, all numbers entered into the unit’s memory when it senses
an alarm on this status channel. The VRC2000 can also be programmed to
dial only one number in memory.
To set up the VRC2000 to dial all telephone numbers in sequence, program
this parameter with a “0”. To set up the VRC2000 to dial outbound
telephone number 1 only, program the parameter with a “1”. To set up the
unit to dial outbound telephone number 2 only, program this parameter with
a “2”, and so on.
There are 16 status channels on your VRC2000. Each can be programmed
with all the parameters listed above. Status channels are accessed with the
following codes (Table 7, next page, top):
