RFC-1 Basic Operation page 5.5
5.4.3 Programming Alarm Limits
The eight alarm channels are designated as A through H. One telemetry channel can be assigned to each alarm. It
is not necessary to use all the alarms nor is it necessary to program them in order. For example, alarm A might
monitor telemetry channel 07 and alarm B could monitor telemetry channel 03 while alarms C-H are left unused.
Using the commands 90 through 97, the RFC-1 will prompt through setting up each alarm. Enter the command 90 to
setup alarm A, 91 for alarm B, and so on. The programming procedure goes like this:
1. Enter the command 90-97 depending on the alarm to program: 9x
2. The RFC-1 reads the current settings for the alarm: channel number, upper limit and lower limit
3. At the prompt, press the # key to reprogram the alarm: #
4. At the prompt, enter the two-digit telemetry channel number to assign to this alarm:
nn
5. At the prompt, enter the four-digit upper limit to assign to this alarm:
uuuu
6. At the prompt, enter the four-digit lower limit to assign to this alarm:
llll
7. The RFC-1 responds with “OK”, the procedure is complete
The factory settings for all alarms are channel 64 with an upper limit of 2040 and a lower limit of 1020. Channel
number 64 indicates an unused alarm. Channel 64 does not exist. Programming an alarm to channel 64 disables
the alarm. The upper and lower limits do not matter if the channel number is 64.
5.4.4 Programming Telephone Numbers
The telephone numbers are designated as A through D. Each telephone number can contain up to twelve digits. It is
not necessary to use all of the telephone numbers. It is also not necessary to use all the digits in a telephone
number. Enter the ❊ key for unused digits at the end of the telephone number. The RFC-1 reads the blank digits as
the value 10—this is normal.
Using the commands 86 through 89, the RFC-1 will prompt through programming each telephone number. Enter the
command 86 to program telephone number A, 87 for telephone number B, and so on. Use the telephone numbers in
order A through D.
1. Enter the command 86-89 depending on the telephone number to program: 8 x
2. The RFC-1 reads the current telephone number, all 10s if the number is blank
3. At the prompt, press the # key to reprogram the telephone number: #
4. At the prompt, enter the twelve-digit telephone number--use the ❊ for unused digits:
nn...
5. The RFC-1 responds with “OK”, the procedure is complete
There are actually six locations available for telephone numbers. Telephone numbers E and F are only available
through advanced programming.
5.4.5 Enabling / Disabling the Telemetry Alarm System
The master setting for the telemetry alarm system enables or disables all telemetry alarms with a single command.
The command to change this setting is 82. Set the value to 0 to disable the alarm system or 1 to enable the
telemetry alarms. The telemetry alarm system is disabled when the RFC-1 ships from the factory.
1. Enter the command for the telemetry alarm system: 82
2. The RFC-1 reads the current setting for the alarm system.
3. At the prompt, press the # key to reprogram the alarm system status: #
4. At the prompt, enter a 1 to enable the telemetry alarms or a 0 to disable them: 1
5. The RFC-1 responds with “OK”, the procedure is complete
