PAUSE

PAUSE represents a two-second pause in dialing. It can be used when an

access number is required before dialing to an outside line. (For example,

in some cases a “9” or other number, must be dialed first, in order to get a

dial tone for an outside line.)
2. Pound (#)

A pound may be required when calling some phone or beeper systems.
3. Star (*)

4. Code

CODE

LOCK

MUTE

The CODE key can be used to perform special functions during the dial-

ing sequence. These include: Pager dialing, Wait for Answer, and Switch

to Touch-tones. These functions enable the Sensaphone to send a numeric

page, or dial a telephone number + office extension, or combine pulse &

touch-tone dialing in the same telephone number. Multiple codes can be

used during telephone number programming if required. See section 4.5.4

for special instructions on dialing to a beeper or pager.
Code 1 Pager
When CODE + 1 is inserted as the first digit of the telephone number, the

Model 400 will make a pager call. This means that the unit will expect the

call to be answered by a paging service provider, then it will send its ID

number (using touch-tones), followed by the digits that identify the zone(s)

in alarm. The unit will hang-up after it completes the call. See section 4.5.4

for specific programming examples for dialing a pager.
