l Function 233/243 Receiver l/Receiver 2 Message Format. Select
the message format for the receiver.
l Function 234/244 Receiver l/Receiver 2 Receiver Protocol
Format. Select the receiver protocol format for the receiver.
l Function 235/245 Communication Message Codes. Identify the
hexadecimal character representing each type of report. Alarm reports must
be enabled for the receiver in order for the receiver to use the Listen-In/Talk-
Back feature. Typing zero for a report disables it.
NOTE:
When non-alarm reports are sent to a receiver from a listen-in/talk-back account, most
receivers using a pulse-tone or DTMF message format automatically identify the account as a
listen-in/talk-back account. The monitoring service operator might attempt to listen-in at the
premises but the Security System 8300 has disconnected. The system does not allow the use
of the
Listen-In/Talk-Back feature when non-alarm reports are sent.
Additional information about these programming functions is provided in the section
Programming Options-Long Version, in Chapter 3, Programming the
System.

Requirements
This section describes how the Listen-In/Talk-Back feature works with the four
receivers verified by Underwriter’s Laboratories as compatible with the Security
System 8300. Use this information when consulting with the monitoring service to
determine the best way to provide listen-in/talk-back service to your customers. The
information provided about each receiver is not comprehensive. There may be ways
to configure receivers to function with the Listen-In/Talk-Back feature that are not
described here. Consult the owner’s manual for each receiver for details about
programming and to determine each unit’s specifications and capabilities.
The Security System 8300 is compatible with a variety of receivers.Information about
receiver compatibility is provided in Table 3-4, Compatibility with Commonly
Used Monitoring Service Receivers, in the section Receiver Compatibility
in Chapter 3, Programming the System. Underwriter Laboratories has verified
the following four receivers as compatible with the Security System 8300:
l Ademco 685
l Osborne-Hoffman Model II
l Radionics 6500
l Silent Knight 9000.
NOTE:
Although the four receivers discussed in these sections have been verified by
Underwriter Laboratories as compatible with the Security System 8300, UL does not
allow Listen-In/Talk-Back for UL-listed installations.
