also be read without a voltmeter, by use of Program Code 0 ZZ 0, where ZZ is
the 2-digit channel number. See Section 3.3, “Programming Input Channels”
and 5.3, “Receiving Alarm Calls”.
COMMON The combined electrical return connection point for all contact
closure inputs. One side of all contact inputs are connected to Common. Phys-
ically, this Common connection point is any of the 4 terminals marked C on
terminal strip TS1. The circuit board internally connects Common to the AC
ground (GREEN) terminal on terminal strip TS3. See Section 2, “Installation.”
DEFAULT Programming values which are built into the unit and remain in
effect until the user alters them. Also, permanently available speech messages
which are utilized when the user has not recorded his own messages.
DELAY BETWEEN DIGITS In some applications, an extra waiting time
is needed between dialed digits. For example in some PBX systems, a 9 must be
dialed, followed by a waiting time of several seconds before the main phone
number may be dialed. See Section 3.2, “Programming Phone Numbers,”
Appendix F, “MODBUS Interface,” and Section 6, “Advanced Programming.”
DESIGNATION NUMBER The two-digit “order number” of a phone
number in the overall set of phone numbers programmed. For example, the
designation number for the third phone number is 03. See Programming
Worksheet A. See Section 3.2, “Programming Phone Numbers,” 6.1, “Program
Codes,” and 6.2, “Programming Operations.”
DIALER See autodialer.
DRY Description of a sensor contact circuit that is not connected to any
power source.
EXIT DELAY A delay period after a user arms the unit, before the unit will
actually accept new alarms. Used to allow user to exit a protected entrance
without tripping the unit into alarm. See Section 6, “Advanced Programming.”
GLOBAL Essentially “over all” or “universal”. Programming that simulta-
neously sets the same value for all channels, but excluding the Power Failure
Alarm function.
