PAGE 14 OPERATION
The B1290 will hang up whenever it has waited for more than ten seconds without receiving a DTMF code.
Changing Telephone Directories
Telephone directories can be changed remotely without entering the programming mode. The directory can be
changed by entering the Directory Control Code over the telephone system, local programming telephone, or two-
way radio.
Refer to the Directory section, Program Code 2, for a description of the directory format and its uses.
This example uses the local programming phone to change the telephone format from DIRECTORY A to
DIRECTORY B and then to DIRECTORY C. A typical installation may use a programming telephone mounted
permanently at the site to make this procedure as simple as possible.
B1290: "Enter Control Code"
YOU:
B1290: "Telephone Format is Directory B"
YOU:
B1290: "Telephone Format is Directory C"
It is also common to enter this code using a DTMF keypad over the radio system when the operators at the site
change shift.
The B1290 will not allow an empty directory to be selected.
