After listening for 20 seconds longer, the operator presses button 2 to turn on the two-way voice
mode. Immediately after pressing button 2, the operator hears 8 tones indicating that another alarm
has occurred. The operator has 20 seconds before the system hangs up to either begin another
listen-in/talk-back period, or press button 9 to hang up and let the new alarm be sent.
EXAMPLE 2:
The monitoring service operator is talking with a person at the premises. After 70 seconds, the
operator hears 4 tones to indicate that the system will disconnect in 20 seconds unless he or she
takes action. Five seconds pass while the operator decides whether to hang up or begin another
listen-in/talk-back period by pressing button
1, 2, 3 or 7. Before taking action, the operator hears 8
tones indicating that a new alarm has been generated. The operator has approximately 15 seconds
to take action before the system hangs up.
Programming the Security System 8300
for Listen-In/Talk-Back
To program the Security System 8300 to use the Listen-In/Talk-Back feature, enable
Listen-Walk-Back for Receiver 1 using Function 236. Enable Listen-In/Talk-Back for
Receiver 2 using Function 246.
For the Listen-ln/Talk-Back feature to work, also program:
l
Function 113 System Reporting. Program the system to report remotely.
l
Function 114 Reporting Type. Select either backup or duplicate/split
reporting.
l
Function 231/241 Receiver i/Receiver 2 Phone Number. Provide
the receiver’s phone number the way the Security System 8300 needs to dial it.
l
Function 232/242 Receiver l/Receiver 2 Account Number. Provide
the account number that identifies the premises to the receiver.
NOTE:
If the Listen-In/Talk-Back feature is enabled for an account that reports to a receiver using a
pulse-tone or DTMF message format, the monitoring service must select a range of account
codes as listen-in/talk-back accounts. For example, a monitoring service might assign 000
through 444 for 3-digit listen-in/talk-back accounts and 4999 through 5999 for 4-digit listen-in/
talk-back accounts. Non-listen-in/talk-back accounts can be assigned numbers outside of
these ranges. Then, the receiver can be programmed to identify-listen-in/talk-back accounts
automatically.
If the Listen-In/Talk-Back feature is enabled for an account that is reporting to a receiver using
the SIA message format, the account code is not necessary to identify the account as a
listen-
in/talk-back account. The SIA message packet contains information identifying the account as
a listen-in/talk-back account.
