Set Alarm Messages (6)

Enter a custom alarm message to display each time its
associated input alarm is triggered. You can enter up to 25
characters.

For example, you might wish to
enter the alarm text for input 01
as "Call Maint. Jim at x9999".
Each time an alarm occurs on
contact point 01, the RCM8
displays the message to call
Jim.

Press 6, then enter the specific contact point to configure
(01 - 08). The existing message is displayed with a prompt
to enter the new message. Type the desired alarm text, then
press Enter to return to the Setup menu.

Set Site ID (7)

Enter a descriptive header for all alarms transmitted through
this RCM8 unit. This message is not unique to a contact
point. The Site ID is a convenient way to identify the source
of the alarm. Site ID can be a maximum of 30 characters.

Press 7 to access the Site ID configuration parameter. The
existing Site ID is displayed with a prompt to enter a new
ID. Type the desired text, then press Enter to return to the
Setup menu.

A reference of special
characters commonly used
when inputting a pager key
sequence is included in
Appendix A at the end of this
manual.

Set Pager ID (8)

The RCM8 is designed to work with alpha-numeric pagers.
Enter the pager key sequence if the RCM8 is to
communicate alarm messages to an alpha-numeric pager. Be
sure to include any special characters such as commas when
entering the pager key sequence. The Set Pager ID field
specifies the actual pager phone number; it should not
include the access phone number for the alpha-numeric
paging company. Only one (1) alpha-numeric pager is
supported.

Press 8, then enter the pager key sequence. The existing
pager ID is displayed with a prompt to enter the new pager
key sequence. Type the desired number (including special
characters), then press Enter to return to the Setup menu.

Press Esc to exit the Setup menu and return to the Main
Menu. Changes made to this parameter are saved when you
press Esc.
