Programming Steps
NOTE: For Zone or group zone
level monitoring see the Zone
Monitor section.
NOTE: If Computer Monitor has
been connected and PagePac
Plus software loaded, you will
need to select the types of
paging inputs to be displayed or
recorded. See next
programming option "Input
Computer Monitor."
This option selects a device to be connected to the RS-232 port, a
computer monitor for logging of all paging activity. The default setting is
Computer Monitor.
By selecting Computer Monitor (the default option), the PagePac Plus is
enabled to monitor activity on Attendant Access, Telephone Interface, and
Night Bell inputs. This feature requires that a PC computer be connected
to the RS-232 port of the PagePac Plus Controller. Whenever the input
becomes active, ASCII characters will be sent out the RS-232 port (DB9
pin connector) to the computer. The ASCII characters will be intercepted
by a special software package in the computer that logs the time, date,
input zone, type of activity, zone that was paged, and duration of the
activity. All such input activity to the paging system can then be viewed
(and recorded) on the computer.
First access the PagePac Plus system and enter the programming mode
by pressing [
* ] [ * ] and entering your Programming password (if optioned).
You may exit the programming mode by dialing [
# ]. The default setting for
this option is Computer Monitor.
