Programming Central Station Telephone Numbers & Account Codes:
The System must be
programmed
with the central station receiver
telephone
numbers and a 4 digit
account code before unit is operational. The System can learn 2 telephone numbers: the alarm receiver’s
toll free number as the “primary number” and the alarm receiver’s local long distance number as the
“secondary
number” as a back-up, in case the primary number is busy.
NOTES:
• YouprogramtheSystemusingatouch-tonetelephoneconnectedonthesamelineastheBaseunit.You
will hear the Base unit speak each number that is pushed as you push them.
• Dial slowly and listen for each number to be announced. If you did not hear the number
announcement - the number was not recorded.
• The System can learn numbers up to 32 digits long,
• If you chose to only program one central station number, simply enter “#” in place of the second number.
• If you need to add a pause in your number sequence, simply insert a “*” where ever you need a 1 second
pause. Insert “**” if you need a 2 second pause.
• Remember to program a 1 before any long distance numbers.
• Remember to program any AREA CODE numbers if needed.
• Remember to program any PREFIX NUMBERS (like 9 to get an outside line) if needed.
Step1:WriteoutthenumbersyouarewantingtoprogramintotheSystem.Belowwewillrefertotherstphone
number as the
Primary
number, the second phone number as the secondary number. Include area-codes and a 1
or 9 if they are needed for dialing – just like you would need to dial the customers phone from their house.
Step 2: Establish a phone connection with your cell phone. This is done as follows.
From
the
home phone
(on
the same line as the
System
is hooked-up to) call your cell phone (or any other number - if you don’t have a
cellular telephone handy). Answer the phone (or wait until the number called answers the phone and tell
them just to wait a minute while you program your System).
