AUDIBLE MONITORING
While Central Station Monitoring is recommended, the panel can also send audible
alarm reports to any DTMF capable telephone. The types of alarms sent are listed in
the Reporting Format Table.
The basic audible message consists of the warning words ALARM, ALARM, ALARM
followed by the alarm message sent as a series of beeps:
N [pause] A [pause] B [pause]
N = The first digit of the Account Number, P72E.
(N can be the digits 1–9. If P72E starts with 0, N is not sent).
A = First digit of the Alarm identifier (See Reporting Format Table).
B = Second digit of the Alarm identifier (See Reporting Format Table).
MESSAGE EXAMPLE
If the Account Number is 1234 and zone 5 alarm is reported then 1 & 5 are beeped out:
ALARM, ALARM, ALARM, 1 Beep, 5 Beeps
REPORTING SEQUENCE
When triggered by an alarm event (or events) the panel will:
1. Call the Primary Telephone Number (P70E).
2. Wait for 6 seconds. During this time the warning words ALARM, ALARM, ALARM are
repeated.
3. Commence the audible message.
4. Repeat the audible message 4 times if not acknowledged by pressing the key
after the alarm beeps.
5. After the Acknowledge, the next message is sent - until all are acknowledged.
6. If the alarm is not acknowledged, then the panel will hang up and redial up to the
maximum number of dial attempts.
7. If the alarm is not acknowledged after all dial attempts then the keypad LINE light will
flash continuously until the panel is next armed.
ACKNOWLEDGE TONE
The person receiving the call can then acknowledge the alarm by pressing the key
on their telephone. Press the
key for 2 seconds after the alarm beeps.
If the alarm is not acknowledged, the keypad’s LINE light will flash continuously until
the panel is next armed.
ALARM EVENTS SENT
The Reporting Format Table identifies the alarm events which can be programmed to
be sent in Audible Format.
Open/Close reports, Restorals and Exclusions (Isolates) are NOT sent in Audible
Format, even if selected on.
