H-14 Verbatim Owner's Manual
If no phone line operation is required, you may instead remove the phone
cord and obtain an isolated 600 ohm, line-level audio signal at the TIP and
RING terminals of TS2.
In operation, the transmitter will be keyed on whenever the off-hook relay is
activated -- i.e. whenever the product is attempting to place or answer a phone
call. Thus, if an ordinary phone line is also used, all phone activity will also be
transmitted.
If no phone line is used, it will still be necessary to program a "dummy" phone
number consisting of a single digit "1", using program code 7 0 1 1. Also,
program for touch tone dialing using program code 9 0 1 1. When the unit goes
into alarm, it will activate the off-hook relay and therefore the transmitter. Then
it will issue the single digit tone, and a few seconds later it will begin the speech
message, continuing as it would for a regular phone call. The number of
message repeats may be altered if desired, using program code 907.
If a phone line is also used, program the appropriate phone numbers as you
would ordinarily do. All phone calls will also be transmitted by radio. If you
desire to have selected "calls" go out only over the air and not to any real phone
number, program the single "dummy" phone number as described above. This
single digit will silence the dial tone which would otherwise be broadcast along
with the speech message.
Alarm calls will continue until acknowledged, unless the unit is programmed to
cease calling when the alarm violation ceases, using program code 9 2 3 2.
In order to acknowledge alarms, it will be necessary to phone the unit back (if a
phone line connection is also being used), or else press one of the keys on the
front panel.
If a two-way transceiver is available which includes some kind of tone
signalling and detection feature that results in momentary closure of a local
relay contact at the autodialer locations, this contact may be used to place
inquiry calls to the unit and also to acknowledge alarms, by radio. Contact
factory for details.
Note that it will not be possible to perform remote programming of the unit with
these radio connections.
A CELLULARM cellular system eliminates all such contraints.
