User Guide
NOCALL - This is the default setting and is most commonly used during normal operation. The
"NOCALL" setting will cause all unused channels not to place any calls.
CALL - If this setting is selected, then all unused channels will place constant calls.
Output Channel and Inactive Channel are two settings that cause new users problems when
they are set to other than the default settings. If you are getting constant calls on output channels,
even after the learn mode, check the Output Channel setting and make sure it is set to "NORMAL". If
unused channels are mysteriously placing constant calls, check the Inactive Channel setting and
make sure that it is set to "NOCALL".
Overlay – This parameter turns the overlay either "ON" or "OFF". The default setting is "ON" which is used
during normal Vantage operation. The overlay includes all the zone indicators and camera label information.
When the overlay is "OFF", none of this information will be displayed on the screen. The overlay can be
restored by pushing the MENU button or by setting the Overlay parameter to "ON" instead of "OFF".

the current configuration. If you do not quit and save to a configuration after making changes, the
parameter changes will not be saved and will not be active.
