7 Using the Alarm Ready Schedule
Feature
7.1 Definition
An Alarm Ready Schedule is defined as an interval of time during which the
Verbatim autodialer is ARMED and “Ready” to respond to alarm conditions.
Alarm Ready Schedules can be automatically started according to times and
dates entered by the operator. An Alarm Ready Schedule commences with the
Verbatim autodialer becoming REARMED. (If the Verbatim autodialer was
previously not DISARMED then the schedule will still be commenced at that
time.) Once the Alarm Ready Schedule has commenced the Verbatim
autodialer will continue in an ARMED state until the end of the Alarm Ready
Schedule, at which time the Verbatim autodialer will be automatically
DISARMED. Once an Alarm Ready Schedule has commenced it is said to be
“active."
There are three steps to programming for Alarm Ready Scheduling:
u Date and time setting
u Enter alarm start and stop times
u Enable the Alarm Ready Scheduling feature using code 966 N.
7.2 General Descriptions
Alarm Ready Schedules can be viewed as really nothing more than an
automated way of pressing the REARM/DISARM button. Therefore, if an
alarm occurs while the Verbatim autodialer is DISARMED, no dial-outs will be
made and the alarm will be automatically acknowledged. Correspondingly, if
there is an acknowledged alarm when the Verbatim autodialer becomes
REARMED and the input violation is still present then the Verbatim autodialer
will begin calling after the trip delay has elapsed.
If the Verbatim autodialer is doing a sequence of alarm calls or Autocall calls at
the time when an Alarm Ready Schedule should change the Verbatim
autodialer’s REARM/DISARM state the change will be delayed until after the
end of the calling sequence.
