Recording Messages 
The SD2 has eight voice messages, and one common site message; each 
message can be up to 30 seconds long (in long play mode). The unit has 
an internal microphone and loudspeaker, which are used to record and 
playback the voice messages. Messages should be recorded to reflect the 
type of alarm that is being triggered, e.g., if “trigger input 1” is connected 
to a smoke alarm then “message 1” should state that there is a fire alarm 
at the premises. 
NB It is recommended that you record “Press 8 on your telephone to 
accept this call” at the end of your message.
