System Setup Info
The SYSTEM SETUP INFO is a string of
11 digits that controls many different functions
on the AS-80. If you wish to make any changes
at all, you MUST enter all 11 digits. If you
should make a mistake during the entry, and you
have not entered all 11 digits yet, simply press #
and a dual tone error tone will sound. When the
error tone is finished you can re-enter the 11
digit SYSTEM SETUP INFO. Once you have
entered the 11 digit number the AS-80 will
continue to the ANNOUNCEMENT mode. The
following is a diagram showing the SYSTEM
SETUP INFO and a description of each
parameter.

Dial method
This parameter controls the dial method the
AS-80 uses when it makes outbound calls. The
choice is either 1 for Dial Pulse(Rotary), or 0 for
Touch Tone; default is 0.
•
Redials for #1
This is the number of times that the AS-80
will redial alert numbers attempting to confirm a
call for channel 1. If the parameter is set to 0, it
will only call the initial time. This can be set
from 0 to 9; the default is 1.
•
Redials for #2
This is the number of times that the AS-80
will redial alert numbers attempting to confirm a
call for channel 2. If the parameter is set to 0, it
will only call the initial time. This can be set
from 0 to 9; the default is 1.
•
Rings Until Answer
This parameter controls how many rings
before the AS-80 answers an incoming call. If
the parameter is set to 29, then a the SHARED
LINE feature is enabled. The SHARED LINE
feature causes the AS-80 not to answer
incoming calls unless a special format is
followed. This format is that you call the line,
let it ring two times, hang up, wait 5 seconds
than call the line again. The line will ring one
time than the AS-80 will answer the call. The
SHARED LINE feature allows the AS-80 to
operate on a standard voice line and allow both
AS-80 incoming calls and standard voice calls
to come in without interruption. It is important
to note that the AS-80 will not answer any
incoming call if the ANSWER/NO ANSWER
jumper is set to the NO ANSWER position.
This can be set from 01 to 29; the default is 02.

Output #1 Control
This parameter controls how long OUTPUT
#1 stays "ON" after it has been triggered.
OUTPUT #1 can be triggered two different
ways. The first way is by triggering the channel
by shorting the input for 200mili-seconds or
longer. Once the input has been triggered, there
is a 10 second buffer before the OUTPUT goes
high. After the 10 second buffer period, the
OUTPUT is triggered and stays high for the
