6.8.2 Extending Telephone Numbers
When more than twelve digits are needed for a single call, two (or more) telephone numbers can be chained together
to form one longer telephone number. Program the final digit of a telephone number with the value 15 as an indicator
to continue dialing the next telephone number. Program the first digit of the next telephone number with a 10 (blank)
to keep the RFC-1 from dialing the extended number as part of the calling rotation.
In the example below, telephone numbers B and C are chained together for a long dialing sequence. The extra digits
and pauses are used to show a case in which extra digits would be needed when dialing a number. In this example,
the Notes column provides details for the value programmed at each address.

The call mode and call attempts of a long dialing sequence are determined by the settings for the first number in the
chain. The settings in the extended numbers are ignored and should be set to 0.
6.8.3 Setting the Call Attempts
Telephone numbers can be called more than once in the event that a number is busy on the first attempt. Each
telephone number A-F has a call attempt setting. This sets the maximum number of times the number will be dialed.
If a user clears the alarm then calls are stopped.
Call attempts can be set from 1 to 4. Values greater than 4 will be result in a maximum of 4 calls. The factory setting
is two attempts for each number.
