32 Reference & Installation Manual
When option [6] is enabled, the Magellan console will dial a
telephone number even if no dial tone is present after 3 seconds.
Dialing Method
Section [098]: Option [7]
Option [7] OFF = Pulse dialing
Option [7] ON = Tone / DTMF dialing (default)
When option [4] is ON, the Magellan console is set for Tone/
DTMF dialing. When option [4] is OFF, the console is set for
pulse dialing. Refer to Pulse Ratio on page 32 for information on
setting the pulse ratio.
Pulse Ratio
Section [098]: Option [8]
Option [8] OFF = European Pulse Ratio of 1:2
Option [8] ON = U.S.A. Pulse Ratio of 1:1.5 (default)
When using Pulse dialing, you can select one of two Pulse
Ratios. Although most European countries use the 1:2 pulse
ratio, the 1:1.5 ratio may provide better results in some cases.
The same applies for North American countries. If the 1:1.5
pulse ratio is not providing the desired results, the 1:2 ratio may
be used.
Switch to Pulse Dialing on 5
th
Attempt
Section [098]: Option [3]
Option [3] OFF = Switch to pulse dialing on fifth attempt disabled
(default)
Option [3] ON = Switch to pulse dialing on fifth attempt enabled
When section [098] option [3] is ON, the Magellan console
switches from tone/DTMF dialing to pulse dialing on the fifth
attempt to report events to the monitoring station. The console
continues to use pulse dialing until it establishes communication.
When the console switches to another MSTN, it returns to tone/
DTMF dialing and will once again switch to pulse dialing on the
fifth attempt.
Telephone Line Monitoring (TLM)
Section [098]: Options [1] and [2]
When enabled, the system verifies the existence of a telephone
line once every second. A line test failure occurs when the TLM
detects less than a certain voltage for the period defined by the
TLM Fail Timer (see page 32). If the line test fails, the Magellan
console generates one or more conditions as defined by the TLM
settings below. These will be restored when the console detects
the telephone line again.
Table 9: Telephone Line Monitoring Options
Please note that when the dialer detects an incoming call, the
TLM test will stop for 1 minute.
If transmission is used off premises, telephone line monitoring
must be used in UL installations.
TLM Fail Timer
Section [073]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 32
seconds
If TLM does not detect the existence of a telephone line for the
duration of this period, the control panel will generate the
condition(s) defined by the TLM options (see Telephone Line
Monitoring (TLM) on page 32).
Recent Close Delay
Section [066]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled;
Default = Disabled
If after having armed the system, an alarm is generated within
the period defined by the Recent Close Delay, the Magellan
console will attempt to transmit the Recent Close report code
programmed in section [139] (page 27).
Auto-Test Report
Section [071]: 001 to 255 days; 000 = Disabled; Default =
Disabled
Section [084]: Time (HH:MM)
The Magellan console will transmit the Test Report report code
programmed into section [153] after the number of days
programmed into section [071] has elapsed at the time
programmed into section [084]. Use the 24-hour clock to
program the time (i.e. 6:30PM = 18:30). The first Test Report will
be transmitted within 24 hours after the feature is enabled at the
time programmed in [084].
Example: Section [071] = 005 and section [084] = 13:00. The first
Test Report will be sent at 1 PM that day and then the report will
be sent every 5 days at 1 PM.

TLM trouble will appear in the console’s Trouble
Display and if the system is armed, the console will
generate an alarm.

failure, a TLM trouble will appear in the console’s
Trouble Display and causes a silent zone or silent
