Addendum to the MCS 500 Automatic Dialer Operation Manual, Rev. B
Software Release 2.11
July 8, 1993
Additional Feature
PROGRAMMABLE START MODE
Some applications desire that the dialer powers up in an active calling mode. A
Start MODE field has been added to the System Setup screen which allows the
user to program the dialer to enter either a half or run state upon power up. This
selection is made by entering the System Setup screen and toggling the Start
MODE field between the HALT and RUN choices.
Operational Change LATCHED ALARM VOICE MESSAGE
The alarm voice message now reports the state of an alarm channel, instead of
the current state, until the alarm has been acknowledged. So, if an alarm
occurred on a channel programmed to Latch, and then the channel returned to
normal, the voice message will report that channel is in alarm until the alarm is
acknowledged.
