Number of Dial Attempts (default = 6)
This location determines the maximum number of dial attempts that the panel will make in
order to contact the base station. This applies to any of the four phone numbers programmed into
locations 51-54.
If this location is disabled, the Alarm Panel will not report to any base stations.

The valid range of data: 1 – 9, with 0 to disable.
This location configures options relating to remote connections made to the X64 via the
onboard telephone dialler. Refer to Table 20 for the values you can select.
Fax defeat is useful for downloading when a fax or answering machine is connected to the same
phone line as the Alarm Panel. If this feature is enabled, dial the panel and hang up before three
rings. Dial the panel again within one minute. The panel will then pick up the call on the first ring
thereby preventing the fax / answering machine from answering the call before the alarm.
If forced answer is enabled the [8] key may be used to force the panel to go off hook,
“answering the line”.
If Auto Pickup is enabled it will pick up the line after the number of rings programmed into
location 49.
The Call-back feature, when enabled, allows the download software/ to request that the panel
call it back using the phone number as programmed into location 50.

Number of Rings to Answer (default = 15)
This location determines the number of rings before the panel “answers" the telephone line. In
the event that the panel answers the call and no valid download logon sequence, or DTMF signal, is
received within 40 seconds, the panel will terminate the call and hang up the line.
