specific panel (see the selection-descriptions).
Setting a Panel to Automatically Dial-In
and Transmit Messages to Guardall
Director
Panels with their own dedicated external
modem (or IP interface--if  V3.3 Director) can
be set to automatically dial-in and transmit
messages to the Guardall Director system.
(In other configurations, the messages are transmitted
when a connection is made with the specific
panel/account—either manually by an operator, or
through a scheduled/repeating communications session
that was set up previously.)
First, check that the "Panel Groups" for each
applicable panel contain no other panels (one
panel per 'Panel Group').
