allow the telephone to ring beyond
4rings.Ifyour1400’sRingsUntil
Answer is set at more than 4 rings,
you may not be able to access the
unit.TrysettingtheRingsUntil
Answer to less than 4 rings. If
this does not correct the problem,
it may indicate telephone line
incompatibility. In this case, try
connecting the 1400 to a standard,
residential telephone line.
Problem 2
The 1400 will not answer the telephone when called for a Status
Report or alarm acknowledgment.
Problem 3
The 1400 will not answer the telephone for Callback
Acknowledgment.
Cause
You did not allow the telephone
to ring 10 times. Note: If the TAD
(telephoneansweringdevice)is
disabled, the telephone rings ten times
before the 1400 answers. If the TAD
is enabled, you must call and let the
line ring once; hang up and call back
again within 30 seconds. The 1400
will answer on the first ring and
acknowledge the alarm.
Solution
When calling the 1400, and the TAD
is disabled, allow the telephone to ring
10 times. Refer to Chapter 5.
