14.3 Pager Format
The Pager format allows the control panel to dial a digital pager and leave a numeric message which includes an account ID and report
type. The telephone number is dialed when a report is available. At the completion of the telephone dialing, a fixed time delay equal to 10
seconds occurs. This delay allows time to connect with the pager service, while skipping over any voice announcement. When the delay
has ended, the numeric message is sent. This message includes the account number followed by up to 5 reports. If a delay time greater
than 10 seconds is required, increments of 3 seconds can be added by programming the “*3” character (3 second delay) at the end of the
phone number in address 4028 or 4038.
For example, if you call pager number 123-4567 and it takes 20 seconds after you finished dialing before you are allowed to enter the
message, the following digits should be programmed in address 4028: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 *3 *3 *3 *3. This will give you an overall delay of 22
seconds.
NOTE: For Pager format, it is not advisable to use the HEX character values (*0 = A, *1 = B, *2 = C, *3 = D, *4 = E, *5 = F) in the report
programming addresses 0256 through 0340. These characters could cause unpredictable results when sent to a pager system
that only expects numeric characters between 0-9. This is the reason that this format will not allow an associated user number
with an open and close report.
CAUTION: Pager Format allows the use of the digit “0” as the reporting (first) digit. Using a “0” as the reporting digit will
disable the reporting in all other formats.
The following are recommended programming values for addresses 0256 through 0340 when using the Pager format.
NOTE: The Pager format is an open-loop format which has no acknowledge tone. There is no indication at the control panel that the
signal has been sent. Therefore, the Pager format is not recommended as the primary communication method.
