Cause
a) Rings Until Answer is incorrectly
programmed.
b) The 1800 is connected to an
incompatible telephone line.
Solution
Recheck programming of Rings Until
Answer. Refer to Chapter 5.
Some telephone systems will not
allow the telephone to ring beyond
4 rings. If your
1800 ’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
1800 to a standard,
residential telephone line.
Problem 2
The 1800 will not answer the telephone when called for a Status
Report or alarm acknowledgment.
Problem 3
The 1800 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
1800 answers. If the TAD
is enabled, the telephone rings once
before the
1800 answers the call.
Solution
When calling the 1800 , and the TAD
is disabled, allow the telephone to ring
10 times. Refer to Chapter 5.
