Performing an IP Ping via Telephone

The IMS-4000 allows you to perform an IP Ping during a voice call-in to the Host. After dialing
the unit, press a touch-tone after the beep. The unit will request your User Code. Next, listen to
the menu choices. Option 3 will allow you to enter an IP address in numeric dot-quad format. Use
the

* key for a dot. A sample IP Ping is shown below:

“Hello this is the IMS-4000 at the IT Dept of XYZ Company.”
“Enter your User Code:” {valid User Code is received}
“To hear the environmental status, press

1.”

“To hear the IP status, press

2.”

“To ping an IP device press

3.” {3 is received}

“Enter IP address, Use the star key for dot. Press pound (

#) when finished.”

{user enters 10.1.4.17}
“Pinging now...”
“10.1.4.17 is not responding”

Call-in Alarm Acknowledgment

If you receive an alarm message on your pager or in your voice mail, you can still acknowledge the
alarm by calling the unit back and entering your User Code. Note that the Intercall Delay must be
set to at least 1 minute in order for the unit to answer a call.
When you call in to the unit, wait for the beep and then press a button on your touch-tone tele-
phone. If there are unacknowledged alarms in the User’s class, the unit will say “Unacknowledged
alarms exist. To hear the alarms, press 9.” If you press 9, the IMS will announce all unacknowl-
edged alarms that are in the User’s class. When the unit finishes announcing all of the alarms,
it will say “Enter your user code.” If the user code is entered correctly the unit will say “Alarm
acknowledged” and it will acknowledge all of the alarms announced, and stop dialing all contacts
programmed as “Until Acknowledged” type.
