any time during the alarm message. If the touch-tone acknowledg-
ment code is not received, Boat Remote will respond by saying,
“Good-bye.” The alarm has not been acknowledged. Boat Remote
will hang up and wait for the rest of the intercall delay time. During
this remaining time you may call the unit back again from a touch
tone phone and enter the ‘555’ code to acknowledge the alarm.

TIP: When Boat Remote is programmed to make calls to beepers,
make sure the intercall delay time is long enough to give the person
carrying the beeper some time to get to a phone to call the unit
back.

Automatic Alarm Acknowledgment - (Max Calls)

Boat Remote has the ability to acknowledge alarms itself by using
the Max Calls function. The unit keeps a count of the number of
phone calls it makes for a particular alarm. Once the number of
calls made reaches Max Calls, Boat Remote will acknowledge the
alarm and stop the dial out process.

PART TWO: SAMPLE PROGRAMMING STRATEGY

An example programming strategy is outlined below. Communica-
tions and monitoring programming are charted to give you a
reference for the examples to follow. Next, possible alarm situations
you may encounter in your own application are given to explain how
Boat Remote will respond.

This section does not cover all the possible circumstances that you
may encounter, but it should give you an understanding of the many
features of the Boat Remote.
