Whenever an Input Type is programmed to Call on an alarm condition and such a condition
occurs, this channel will try to report the alarm condition that has occurred to the phone numbers
that are in its Telephone List. The numbers that are in this list will be called in order until this
channel alarm becomes acknowledged.
The following are the programmable channel Input Types:
Normally Open Digital Input
These channel inputs are reported as either Open or Closed. The normal condition is the Open
condition and the fault condition is the Closed condition. For example, this can be used to
monitor a Pump Failure Indicator, High/Low level switch, etc.
Normally Closed Digital Input
These channel inputs are reported as either Open or Closed. The normal condition is the Closed
condition and the fault condition is the Open condition. For example, this can be used to monitor
an intrusion alarm, system normal indicator, etc.
Analog Input
These channel inputs are reported as a level value. The normal condition is when the current
level value is between the High SetPoint and Low SetPoint. The fault condition is when the
level value is either above the High SetPoint or below the Low SetPoint. For example, this can
be used to monitor a tank level, the current flow reading from a flow meter, etc.
To change the value of the Setpoint, click and type value.
Power Fail (Not Programmable)
This channel’s input is reported as either Open or Closed. It is a normally Closed channel. It
monitors the DC voltage input that it is receiving. When it drops too low, the dialer will resort to
using the dialer battery if one is installed.
Alarm Configuration (Inputs Only)
Each input channel can be setup to handle channel values in a specific way. Each channel can be
setup as either a Status, Call On Alarm, or Call On Alarm and Return channel.
A None channel indicates that this channel will not make any alarm call outs. It will recognize
that a fault condition has occurred, but no alarm condition will be reported for this channel.
