Adding Custom Words Up to 20 installer-defined words can be added to the built-in vocabulary. Each of
the 20 "words" can actually consist of several words, but bear in mind that a
maximum of 10 characters can be used for each word string.
NOTE: The phone module can be programmed to annunciate
substitute custom words, if desired. If not programmed for
substitutes, the phone module will only annunciate the zone
number whenever the alpha keypad displays a custom word
1. Select CUSTOM WORD mode. The keys perform the following functions:
[3] Advances through alphabet in ascending order.
[1] Advances through alphabet in descending order.
[6] Selects desired letter; moves the cursor 1 space right.
[4] Moves the cursor one space to the left.
[7] Inserts a space at the cursor location, erasing any character at that
location.
[8] Saves the new word in the system's memory.
[*] Returns to description entry mode.
2. Key the number of the custom word or word string to be created (01-20). For
example, if you are creating the first word (or word string), enter 01; when
creating the second word, enter 02, and so on. A cursor will now appear at
the beginning of the second line.
3. One of two methods of entering the custom word's characters can now be
used (refer to the CHARACTER LIST of letters, numbers, and symbols on
the next page):
a)
Press the [#] key, followed by the two digit entry for the first letter you
would like to display (e.g., [6][5] for "A"), or...
b) Use the [3] key to advance through the list of symbols, numbers, and
letters. Use the [1] key to move back through the list.
When zone descriptors are being entered as described in step 3a the custom
word numbers are 250 to 269 for words 1 to 20 respectively. When being en-
tered as described in step 3b, each word will be found at the end of the group
of words that begin with the same letter as it does.
4. When you have reached the desired character, press the [6] key to select it.
The cursor will then move to the right, in position for the next character.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to create the desired word (or words). Note that the [4]
key can be used to move the cursor to the left if necessary, and that key [7]
can be used to enter a blank (or to erase an existing character). Each word or
word string cannot exceed 10 characters.
6. Press the [8] key to save the custom word(s) and return to the CUSTOM
WORD? display. The custom word (or string of words) will be automatically
added to the built-in vocabulary at the end of the group of words beginning
with the same letter.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 to create up to 19 additional custom words (or word
strings).
8. Key 00 at custom word prompt to exit the zone description programming
mode.
