Paging Feature

Manual Paging

Your system may be set up so you can manually send a message to up to four
(FA168CPS) or two (FA148CP) pagers.

• Your installer programs the paging function key and the pager phone numbers.

• Pressing the paging keys sends the message

9 9 9 – 9 9 9 9

to the selected pager

•

This message could mean “call home”, “call your office”, or any other prearranged
meaning.

• See the Paging chart at the back of this manual for details of the paging setup for

your system.

1. Press and hold the programmed Paging Key for at

least 2 seconds (wait for beep), then press the pager
number (1-4)* representing the pager intended to
receive the message.

2. The recipient, on seeing the 999–9999 message, will

understand the prearranged meaning of this signal.

If no number is pressed, the message is sent to pager 1

Latch Key Paging

You can program a schedule that causes a pager report to be sent if the system is not
DISARMED by the scheduled time (see Scheduling section, event “03”). For example,
a working parent might want a message to be sent to a pager if their child did not
arrive home from school and disarm the system by a certain time.

If programmed, the message that is sent is:

7 7 7 – 7 7 7 7 .
