IV. The Alarm Is Acknowledged
Variable factors
At any time after a valid alarm is determined, the alarm
may be acknowledged at the Model 400’s installation
site, by pressing ALARM CANCEL key.
When the Model 400 dials out and the call is answered
via Touch-Tone telephone, any alarm may be instantly
acknowledged by pressing “555.”
If the alarm message repeats for the number of
programmed Voice Repetitions, and “555” has not been
entered, the Model 400 will say:
“Enter acknowledgement code.”
The Model 400 waits 10 seconds for the Touch-Tone
code “555” to be entered. If the code is entered within
10 seconds, it responds:
“Alarm acknowledged.”
The alarm is considered acknowledged and the dialout
concludes.
If the Model 400 does not receive the Touch-Tone code
within 10 seconds, it recites the following:
“Error, enter acknowledgement code.”
If the Model 400 does not receive the acknowledgement
code a second time, it says “error, goodbye” and hangs
up. The recipient of this message must call the Model
400 back within the period programmed for Intercall
Time, in order to acknowledge the alarm. If Local Voice
Mute is off, the unit will beep at the installation site
while waiting for this call.
Callback Acknowledgement: If enabled, the Model 400
waits 10 rings before answering to guard against random
acknowledgment. If an answering device is connected to
the same line as the Model 400 (and TAD is enabled),
you must call the unit and let the line ring once, then
hang up, wait ten seconds and call back again within 30
seconds. The Model 400 will answer on the first ring. It
will recite any unacknowledged alarms, then say:
“Alarm acknowledged, goodbye.”
