When the entry is satisfactory, press the SELECT key to commit it to the system’s

System ID Message


The System ID Message is a 6 second Real Voice message that introduces which
system is speaking when it calls or when it is called over the telephone line. To
program the System ID Message, a carbon element telephone handset must be
connected to the Speech Digitizer card inside the system enclosure. The ADPCM card
is located in system bus card slot 2, 3, or 4, and contains a small modular jack which
will accept the plug found on a telephone handset. This socket is smaller than the jack
used for the telephone line connection.

IV.C.3.

System Snooze Period


The Snooze Period is that time that the system waits after a call placed by the system
has been answered and positively acknowledged. The Snooze Period may be from
0001 to 9999 minutes. To program the Snooze Period, cursor to that field and select it
for editing. Use the numeric entry keys to enter the desired value, pressing ENTER to
commit it to memory. The default Snooze Period is 60 minutes. Individual channels
may specify individual Snooze Periods. If a Channel specific Snooze period is set to
the default value (using one of the Sequence reset functions), the value to which it will
be returned will be the System Level Snooze Period.

When the system is in the Snooze Period Mode, it will answer incoming calls and deliver
a status message. If another new fault or alarm condition arises, the balance of the
delay will be aborted, and the system will begin repeated calls again, advising personnel
of the new fault conditions(s).

IV.C.4. Call

Spacing


Call spacing is that period in-between unacknowledged calls made by the system. It
may range from 0 to 9999 minutes. To program a call spacing value, cursor to that field
and select it for editing. Use the numeric entry keys to enter the desired value, pressing
ENTER to commit it to memory. The default Call Spacing delay is 1 minute.

IV.C.5. Call-At...List

The dialer may be instructed to call at a certain (and different) time of day, for each day
of the week, regardless of the fault or alarm condition which exists. The Call-At times
are set on the CALENDAR screen, but the CALL-AT LIST determines which telephone
list will be used for telephone numbers. The list is programmed by accessing that field
