Test and Program Timer (Timer Installations Only)
Manually set the Timer on and make sure the CTM is able to receive a call.
Manually set the Timer off and make sure the CTM does not answer a call.
Finally, program the Timer to enable the CTM. Consult the instructions sup-
plied with the Timer for details.
Set AOM Jumpers and Test AOM (AOM Installations Only)
Insert jumper B from J5 on the AOM into pin jack 13 at J3 (consult the AOM
manual for more details). Close contact B (if the LED to the right of contact B is
lit, the contact is closed) by moving the jumper at J7 to Normally-Closed (if
necessary) and make sure the CTM is able to receive a call. Open contact B (if
the LED to the right of contact B is unlit, the contact is open) by moving the
jumper at J7 to Normally-Open (if necessary) and make sure the CTM does not
answer when called. When finished testing, move the jumper at J7 back to the Nor-
mally-Open position.
Insure Handset Power On
If you install a handset you must not turn power off at the handset when leav-
ing the station because this over-rides the Timer or Alarm Output Module con-
trol. The handset power must be on to enable the “power saver” switching to
“wake up” the CTM and receive calls from the WeatherLink software.

If the cell phone is operating on solar/battery power, the Timer or AOM will be
used to switch the voltage on the green CTM power wire (“Ignition Detect”),
causing the CTM to “wake up” and turn on (referred to as enabling the CTM).
The CTM will not answer any incoming call unless the Timer or the AOM
enables it.
✦
AOM Power Saving
The AOM enables the CTM at 5 minutes past each even-numbered hour
(using the station console’s clock) and keeps it enabled for 4 minutes.
When a call is received, the CTM remains enabled during the call and for
2 minutes after the last communication is complete.
✦
Timer Power Saving
The user may set the Timer to any desired intervals. Any call in progress
when the Timer switches off will continue normally until hang-up.
✦
Disabling Power Saving
To disable power saving entirely, leaving the CTM on at all times, move
the green CTM power wire from terminal 2 (green) to terminal 3
(orange) on the terminal block.
