SPECIAL FUNCTIONS 
D-302542  23 
The PowerMax Pro can be programmed by the 
installer for selective transmission of messages to 
private telephone subscribers. Messages are divided 
by type into 4 groups: 
Group Events Reported 
1  Fire, Burglary, Panic, Tamper 
2  Arming AWAY, Arming HOME, Disarming 
3  No-activity, Emergency, Latchkey, Gas, 
Flood, Temperature 
4 Low-battery AC failure 
When the called party answers a call initiated by the 
PowerMax Pro, he will hear a verbal message 
composed of the “house identity” and the type of event 
that occurred. For example, once smoke is detected in 
the Smith residence, the message will be: 
[The Smith Residence - Fire Alarm]. 
If a person under surveillance in the Watkins 
residence has been inactive, the message will be: 
[The Watkins Residence - No Activity]. 
The called party must acknowledge the message (as 
explained later on), but if he does not respond, the 
message will be transmitted repeatedly as many 
times as possible within a 45-second time limit. 
When the 45 seconds are up, the PowerMax Pro will 
disengage the line and call the next private 
telephone number on its list. 
The called party can acknowledge the message by 
pressing a key on the telephone keypad, as follows. 
Command Key 
Acknowledge only: The PowerMax Pro 
disengages the line and considers the

Command Key 
Acknowledge and speak out: The called 
party may speak for 50 seconds to

report: The PowerMax Pro will issue a 
verbal report of system status. For example:
