6.1 Preliminary Guidance

A. Mode description

This mode allows you to adapt the telephone communi-

cation parameters to the local requirements.

There are two kinds of memory locations in this sub-mode,

each of which requires a different programming method:

& Multiple Choice Locations: these memory locations

allow you to choose one of several options (see C

below for programming procedure)

& Numerical Data Locations: these memory locations

accept a sequence of digits (phone number, account

number etc - see D below for programming procedure).

Should you wish to get an overall view of the entire

process, refer to the programming chart in Figure 5.

You may even use the chart as your only guide along

the programming process, instead of going through

the written step-by-step procedure.

B. Accessing the “Define Comm” Memory Locations

Upon gaining access to the installer menu (see Section

1), the display will read “1. NEW INSTL CODE”.

Click <NEXT> until the 5th mode is displayed:

5. DEFINE COMM.

Click <OK>. The first memory location will be selected

and displayed:

01: DIAL METHOD

Click <NEXT> or <BACK> until you reach the memory

location you wish to access (see rectangles 01 to 23 in

Figure 4).

C. Programming Multiple Choice Locations

When a multiple choice location is selected, its number

and name will be displayed as shown in this example:

07:REPORT FORMAT

When you click <OK>, the currently saved option will be

displayed with a dark selection box at the far right:

SIA

If you approve of this option, click <OK>. The “Happy

Tune” will sound and the number and name of the present

memory location will be re-displayed.

If you do not approve, review the other options by clicking

<NEXT> or <BACK> repeatedly. Options that are not

saved will have a clear space at the far right, as shown:

contact ID

To select an option that is not the currently saved one,

click <OK>. A dark box will appear at the far right.

Clicking <OK> once more will cause your selection to be

saved - the “Happy tune” will sound and the number and

name of the present memory location will be re-displayed.

D. Programming Numerical Data Locations

When a numeric data location is selected, its number and

name will be displayed as shown in this example:

03:1ST

CNTR TEL

When you click <OK>, the currently saved number will be

displayed, with a blinking cursor under the leftmost digit (if

there is no number programmed, the display will be blank).

73849204

If you approve of the saved number, click <OK>. The

“Happy Tune” will sound and the number as well as the

name of the present memory location will be re-displayed.

If you do not approve, enter the new number (up to 16

digits). To erase undesired digits to the right of the cursor,

click <OFF>.

With the correct number on display and the blinking cursor

to the right of the last digit, click <OK>. The cursor will

disappear.

Click <OK> once more. The new number will be saved -

the “Happy tune” will sound and the number + name of the

present memory location will be re-displayed.

When entering a series of digits, the

following keys are useful:

<Numeric keypad> - to enter the number

- moves the cursor from left to right

- moves the cursor from right to left

- deletes everything after the cursor (to

the right).

IMPORTANT: In telephone / pager number locations and

account number locations, you may be required to enter

hexadecimal digits. In telephone number locations, these

digits are used as codes to control the dialer:

Hex.

6.2 Dialing Method

Here you determine the dialing method used by the

automatic dialer built into the PowerMax control panel.

The options are: Pulse and DTMF

01:DIAL METHOD

Select the desired option as outlined in Para. 6.1 C above.

6.3 Phone Line Test Interval

Here you determine the time interval between

consecutive tests of the telephone line. The control panel

tests the line at regular intervals to verify that the

telephone line is operational.

The options are: test every 1, 7, 30 days and test off.

Upon selecting Location 02, the display will change to:

02:LINE TEST

Select the desired option as outlined in Para. 6.1 C above.
