Option 3 allows entry of a pager ID. This is
mandatory for numeric and alphanumeric pagers.
Alphanumeric pager - This ID is sent to the paging
service along with all queued alarm messages. The
ID is the unique PIN for a specific pager. The ID
may be a maximum of 16 characters.
Numeric pager - The ID may be configured to
deliver different numeric messages. The ID can
contain 15 characters: any combination of the
numerals
0 - 9 , and a * or # . These are the only
characters that will be transmitted to the paging
service.
Each paging service interprets * and #
differently. Before using these characters,
consult the paging service to see how they are
interpreted and when they should be used.
Acknowledge an Alarm:
1. Dial Falcon from any phone.
2. Wait for the computer tone.
3. Enter acknowledgement code
followed by the # key .
A $ can be added or inserted anywhere into the
message string. This is converted into a 5 digit
alarm code:
XYZZZ .
X - binary alarm condition: 1 =on, 0 =return to
normal (RTN)
Y - multi-drop address of the Falcon ( 0 - 4 )
ZZZ - alarm ID number - see reference table
An effective numeric page depends largely on
the parameters established by the paging service.
Experimentation may be required to achieve desired
results.
Option 4 configures an acknowledgement code - any
number, up to six digits, used to acknowledge receipt
of an alarm and to terminate any additional call outs
for this phone number.
Option 5 designates whether to call this number
again once the alarm condition returns to normal.
Option 7 moves the interface ahead to configure
the next phone number in the system. Sixteen total
numbers may be configured.
